Question

Choose the number in which the digit 2 is ten times greater than the digit 2 in 426.

Answer 1

Answer: 237

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok we can write 426 as:

400 + 20 + 6

Then the 2 in 426 is in the place of the tens and represents a 20.

If we want a number with a 2 that is 10 times greater than 20, we have that:

10*20 = 200.

Then we should find a number with a 2 in the hundreds place, an example can be:

237

where we can write this number as:

237 = 200 + 30 + 7

and the 2 is in the hundreds place.
