Question

ms swanson asked question how does knowing the fact 6 times 5 help us find 60 times 500 mario answerd i know 6 times 5 is 30 now all i have to do count zeros and i get 3000

Answer 1

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Maria is incorrect as she didn't count the number of zeros properly. After knowing that 6 × 5 = 30, the question is 60×500 which means there are 3 zeros that should be added to the 30 that she got, this will have given her a value of 30,000 which is correct. She write 3000 which is 3 under thousands rather than 30,000 which is 3 under tens of thousands.
