Question

True or False in our system each place to the left is 10 time greater than its place to the right

Answer 1

True. In a base-10 number system, each place to the left represents a value that is 10 times greater than the place to its right. For example, in the number 523, the '5' is in the hundreds place (10^2), the '2' is in the tens place (10^1), and the '3' is in the ones place (10^0). Thus, each position to the left increases in value by a factor of 10.
