Anthony spend $34.56 at the shopping mall. Brad was also shopping at the mall with Anthony. The value of the digit 6 in the amou
nt of money he spent is 100 times more than the value of the digit 6 in the amount Anthony spent. Did Brad spend $56.71 or $57.61? Show all work. Explain how you know which number is correct
with Anthony's spendings of $34.56, the 6 is in the hundredth place. If the value of the six is 100 times more in Brad's spending, the six would be in the ones place. You would move the six over two place values (because of 100) and end up with 6 dollars. If it was 10 times more, than you would only move one place value over and it would be 57.61.
