If we use the place value chart, 10020 and 20010 will be further dissected based on place values. At first look, 20010 seems to have more tens and that is fact; but this method will show us that it is otherwise so follow the solution below carefully:
Employing PLACE VALUE CHART:
For 20010: *10000 <--- Ten-thousands place. *10000 <--- Ten-thousands place. *10 <--- Tens place. Add these numbers and you will get: 20010. 20010 has two ten-thousands place and one tens place.
For 10020 *10000 <--- Tens-thousands place. *10 <--- Tens place. *10 <--- Tens place. Add these numbers and you will get: 10020. 10020 has one ten-thousands place and two tens place.
Therefore, there are more tens in 10020 than in 20010.
