To find the missing factor, we can set up the equation based on the problem statement:
33,000 ÷ x = 110.
To find x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by x and then by 110:
x = 33,000 ÷ 110.
Now, let's simplify 33,000 ÷ 110:
- We can break it down:
- 33,000 ÷ 11 = 3,000 (since 33 ÷ 11 = 3).
- Now, we can multiply 3,000 by 10 (because we divided by 11 instead of 110).
So, 33,000 ÷ 110 = 3,000.
Now we can validate that:
3,000 multiplied by 110 equals 33,000, confirming our calculation is correct.
Among the options given, the correct answer is:
3,000.
