Question

How is 2 ones the same has 20 tenths

Answer 1

Answer:

$2\times 1=\frac{20}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to determine how 2 ones is the same as 20 tenths.

We can represent 2 ones as: $2\times 1=2$.

We know that tenth of a quantity represents 1 of 10 parts as $\frac{1}{10}$. We can represent 20-tenths as:

$20\times \frac{1}{10}$

$\frac{20}{10}=2$

Therefore, 2 ones is same as 20 tenths.

Answer 2

They are the same because tenths are 1/10 of ones. So if you had 20 tenths, you could multiply 20and 1/10. When you do that you get 20/10 which in simplest form is 2 ones. If you do the opposite of 2 to 20, you get the same thing.
