Answer 1

The value of the 5 in 50.8 is 1,000 times the value of the 5 in 18.35 ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some important notes in a number:

• Every digit in a number has a place value
• Place value is the value represented by a digit in a number
• Ex: the place value of 2 in the number 2,345 is 1,000 because 2 is in the thousands place, the place value of 9 in 12.29 is 0.01 because 9 is in the hundredths place

∵ The number is 50.8

∵ 5 is in the tens place

∴ The place value of 5 is 10

∵ The number is 18.35

∵ 5 is in the hundredths place

∴ The place value of 5 is 0.01

Let us compare between the places value of 5 in the two numbers

Let x the number which multiplying by the hundredth digit to give the ten digit

∵ 10 = x × 0.01

∴ 10 = 0.01 x

- Divide both sides by 0.01

∴ 1,000 = x

∵ 5 × 10 = 0.05 × 1000

∴ 50 = 50

∴ The value of 5 in 50.8 = 1,000 × the value of 5 in 18.35

The value of the 5 in 50.8 is 1,000 times the value of the 5 in 18.35
