Answer 1

Answer:

Ted says that 3/10 multiplied by 100 equals 300000 is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Ted says that 3/10 multiplied by 100 equals 300000.

The place value chart is:

Hundred Thousands   Ten Thousands   Thousands   Hundreds   Tens   Ones

          100,000                   10,000                 1000             100              10       1

3/10 multiplied by 100 can be written as:

$\frac{3}{10}\times 100$

$3\times 10$

$30$

Which is thirty, the digit 3 is at Tens place and 0 at Ones place.

He said the 3/10 multiplied by 100 equals 300000.

In number 300000 the digit 3 is at Hundred Thousands place. Which is clearly not equal to 30.

Hence, ted says that 3/10 multiplied by 100 equals 300000 is incorrect.

Answer 2

Ted is incorrect because 3/10 is the same as .30 which is then multiplied by 100 and given the product of 30.
.3×100=30
