Answer 1

In the number 45,569, the 5 in the hundreds place is 100 times the value of the 5 to its left.

To explain further:

• The 5 in the hundreds place represents 500.
• The 5 in the thousands place represents 5,000.
• Since 500 (the hundreds place) is 100 times less than 5,000 (the thousands place), you can say that the 5 in the hundreds place is 1/100 the value of the 5 in the thousands place.

So, to correct and clarify, the 5 to the left is actually 10 times the hundreds value. The direct completion should be 10 times the value of the 5 to its left in the thousands place.
