Question

There were seventeen thousand four hundred nine people at a baseball game. What is this number in expanded form?

Answer 1

Hi!

Expanded form is when we multiply each of the digits by how many 0s they have.

So 253 is (2 x 100) + (5 x 10) + (3 x 1).

17,000

400

9

(17 x 10,000) + (4 x 100) + (9 x 1)

The answer is C) (17 x 10,000) + (4 x 100) + (9 x 1) (which equals 17,409)

Hope this helps! :)
