The given number 230, before
giving the answering, let us first identify each values
2 =hundreds
3 = tens
0 = ones
Now, the question is, is the value of 2 hundreds is ten times as great as
the value of 3 tens.
Well basing on the place value only, Yes. But basing on the number and
place value, the answer is NO.
=> 30 x 10 = 300, while the value of 2 is 200.
thus, the value of 2 is not 10 times greater than the value of 3.
