To complete the statements:

  1. The value of the digit 10 in 71,000 is ten times the value of the digit 1 in 17,000.

  2. The value of the digit 1 in 17,000 is ten times the value of the digit 10 in 71,000.

Explanation:

  • In 71,000, the digit "1" is in the ten-thousands place (which is 10,000).
  • In 17,000, the digit "1" is in the ten-thousands place (also 10,000).

When you ask about the values of the digits "1," "10," and "100," in both numbers:

  • In 71,000:

    • The value of "10" is 10 (in the thousands place).
    • The value of "100" is 0 (since there's no 'hundreds' digit).
  • In 17,000:

    • The value of "10" is 0 (since there's no 'tens' digit).
    • The value of "1" is 10,000 (in the ten-thousands place).

Thus, when comparing:

  • The value of the digit 10 (in 71,000) is ten times less than the value of the digit 1 (in 17,000).
  • Conversely, the value of the digit 1 (in 17,000) is ten times larger than the digit 10 (in 71,000).
