To analyze the number 921,4[5]⑤, we'll first identify the value of each 5.

  • The 5 in the square (5 in [5]) is in the tenths place, which means it represents \( \frac{5}{10} \) or 0.5.

  • The 5 in the circle (5 in ⑤) is in the hundred's place, which means it represents \( 5 \times 100 \) or 500.

Now let's compare the values:

  1. The value of the 5 in the square is 0.5.
  2. The value of the 5 in the circle is 500.

To find the relationship, compare the two values:

  • The value of the 5 in the circle (500) is 10 times the value of the 5 in the square (0.5), because \( 500 = 10 \times 0.5 \).

Thus, the correct answer is: A. The value of the 5 in the circle is 10 times the value of the 5 in the square.
