Question

Which is odd one out? Explain how you know?

Answer 1

Given:

15,000 ones, 1,500 tens ,15 thousands, 15,000, 15 ten thousands.

To find:

The odd one out.

Solution:

First, we need to convert all the values in the standard form of a number.

$15000\text{ ones}=15000\times 1$

$15000\text{ ones}=15000$

Similarly,

$1500\text{ tens}=1500\times 10$

               $=15000$

$15\text{ thousands}=15\times 1000$

                     $=15000$

$15\text{ ten thousands}=15\times 10000$

                           $=150000$

The standard form of all numbers is 15,000 except 15 ten thousands.

Therefore, the odd one out is 15 ten thousands.
