Question

184.36

Answer 1

Answer:

9,027.83

100 times smaller

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 184.36, the place value of 8 in the number is 8 tens i.e 8* 10 = 80

The place value of 8 in 9,027.83 is 8 tenth i.e 8* 1/10

8* 1/10 = 8/10

8/10 = 0.8

Hence the number that has the smaller value of 8 is 9,027.83.

To get how many times smaller the number is, we will take the ratio of 80 to 0.8 as shown:

$= \frac{80}{0.8}\\ \\= 80 \div 0.8\\\\= 80 \div \frac{8}{10}$

$= 80 * \frac{10}{8}\\ \\= \frac{800}{8}\\ \\= 100$

This means that the number 0.8 is 100 times smaller than 80
