Whenever you move a digit one space to the left in a place value chart, the value of the digit becomes ten times larger.
Let's use this idea to compare the size of the digit in the following two numbers:
We can compare the relative sizes of the digit for each number using a place value chart:
First, we write down the place value chart for
hundreds tens ones Then, we write down the place value chart for
hundreds tens ones To compare the sizes of the two digits, we need to move one place to the left.
hundreds tens ones
Since the digit in is once space to the left of the digit in we can make the following conclusion:
The value of the digit in is times larger than the value of the digit in
Find a number in which the digit has a value that is times larger than the value of the digit in
Whenever you move a digit one space to the left in a place value chart, the value of the digit becomes ten times larger.
Let's start by writing down the place values for
hundreds | tens | ones |
We need to find a number in which the digit has a value that is times larger than that of tens. So, we move step left in the place value chart:
hundreds | tens | ones |
Therefore, the required number is any number that has the digit in the hundreds place. For example,
What is missing in the following sentence?
The value of the digit $9$ in $2,941$ is $\underline{\phantom{0000000000000000000000}}$ than the value of the digit $9$ in $197.$
a
|
$10$ larger |
b
|
$100$ times larger |
c
|
$10$ times smaller |
d
|
$10$ times larger |
e
|
$100$ larger |
In which of the following numbers does the digit $5$ have a value that is $10$ times larger than the value of the digit $5$ in $659?$
a
|
$350$ |
b
|
$715$ |
c
|
$58$ |
d
|
$5,329$ |
e
|
$582$ |
Let's compare the value of the digit in the following two numbers:
First, we write down the place value chart for
thousands hundreds tens ones Then, we write down the place value chart for
thousands hundreds tens ones To compare the sizes of the two digits, we need to move two places to the left:
thousands hundreds tens ones
Now, note the following:
Whenever you move a digit one space to the left, the value of the digit becomes times larger.
So, whenever you move a digit two spaces to the left, the value of the digit becomes times larger!
Therefore, we can make the following conclusion:
The value of the digit in is times larger than the value of the digit in
Let's now see what happens when we move a digit three spaces to the left.
Find a number in which the digit has a value that is times larger than the value of the digit in
Whenever you move a digit one space to the left in a place value chart, the value of the digit becomes ten times larger.
Let's start by writing down the place value chart for
ten-thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
We need to find a number in which the digit has a value that is times larger than that of tens.
Notice that,
Therefore, we move steps left in the place value chart:
ten-thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
Therefore, the required number is any number with the digit in the ten-thousands place. For example,
What is missing in the following sentence?
The digit $7$ in $731$ is $\underline{\phantom{{}^{000000000000000000000000000}}}$ than the value of the digit $7$ in $527.$
a
|
$1,000$ times larger |
b
|
$10$ larger |
c
|
$100$ larger |
d
|
$10$ times larger |
e
|
$100$ times larger |
In which of the following numbers does the digit $6$ have a value that is $100$ times larger than the value of the digit $6$ in $8,162?$
a
|
$6,423$ |
b
|
$7,216$ |
c
|
$9,603$ |
d
|
$2,368$ |
e
|
$1,675$ |
How many times greater is the value of the digit $6$ in $6,137$ than the value of the digit $6$ in $3,596?$
a
|
$10$ |
b
|
$100$ |
c
|
$1,000$ |
d
|
$600$ |
e
|
$6$ |
Find a number in which the digit has a value that is times larger than the value of the digit in
Whenever you move a digit one space to the left in a place value chart, the value of the digit becomes ten times larger.
Let's start by writing down the place value chart for
hundred-thousands | ten-thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
We need to find a number in which the digit has a value that is times larger than that of hundreds.
Notice that
Therefore, we move steps left in the place value chart:
hundred-thousands | ten-thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
Therefore, the required number is any number that has the digit in the hundred-thousands place. For example,
How many times greater is the value of the digit $4$ in $345,738$ than the value of the digit $4$ in $2,743?$
a
|
$100$ |
b
|
$1,000$ |
c
|
$10$ |
d
|
$4,000$ |
e
|
$400$ |
In which of the following numbers does the digit $9$ have a value that is $1,000$ times larger than the value of the digit $9$ in $813,906?$
a
|
$719,113$ |
b
|
$967,421$ |
c
|
$537,294$ |
d
|
$298,201$ |
