1 cube= 1 unit
1 Rod (Long)= 10 units
10 Rods (Longs)= 1 flat (1 flat=100 units)
10 flat =1 cube(1 cube=1000 units)
83×10= 830
2×10=20
830×20= 16,600
Just wanted to add more to help you understand why 83 is multiplied by ten and 2 is multiplied by 10. Its because when we use Base ten blocks, tens represent 1 Rod (Long)= 10 units. Hope it helps more.
