Question

How many times greater is the value of 5.3 than the value of 0.53

Answer 1

To find the number of times greater, let us divide 5.3 by 0.53.

Number of times greater = $\frac{5.3}{0.53}$

$=\frac{5.3}{0.53}(\frac{100}{100} )$

$=\frac{530}{53}$

= 10

Hence, 5.3 is 10 times greater than 0.53.
