The number 7 402 053 190 has two digits “2” and “4” in it.
How many times greater is the place value of 4 than the value of 2?
Step-by-step solution:
The digit 4 is in the hundred millions place:
→ Place value = 4×100 000 000=400 000 000
The digit 2 is in the ten millions place:
→ Value = 2×10 000 000=20 000 000
To find how many times greater 400 000 000 is than 20 000 000:
400 000 000 / 20 000 000 =20
A mountain hiker starts at an elevation of 1,200 meters. On the first day, he descends 300 meters. On the second day, he climbs up 450 meters. On the third day, he descends 2 times the amount he descended on the first day. What is his final elevation?
Step-by-step:
Start: 1200
Day 1: 1200−300=900
Day 2: 900+450=1350
Day 3: Descends 2×300=600 → 1350−600=750
Answer:
The hiker’s final elevation is 750 meters.
