Question

In 1934 there was an extreme drought in the great plains. In the number 1934, is the value of the 9 in the hundreds place ten times the value of the 3 in the tens place?

Answer 1

The number 1934 can be written as:

1,000 + 900 +30 +4

so the value of the 3 is 30, of the 9 is 900 and of the 1 is 1000.


900 is indeed 10 times 30, so 

"the value of the 9 in the hundreds place ten times the value of the 3 in the tens place"


Answer: true
