To identify the parts and wholes in the given mathematical statement, we look at the structure of each scenario. The "part" typically represents a subset or a portion of something larger (the "whole").

  1. For the first scenario:

    • Parts: ? and 45.80 (Here, one part is unknown "?" and the other is 45.80)
    • Wholes: 10 and 100 (These represent the complete quantities or totals)
  2. For the second scenario:

    • Parts: 10 and ? (Here, one part is known as 10 and one is unknown "?" )
    • Wholes: 100 and 45.80 (These represent the complete quantities or totals)
  3. For the third scenario:

    • Parts: 10 and 45.80 (Both are known parts)
    • Wholes: 100 and ? (One whole is known as 100 and one is unknown "?")
  4. For the fourth scenario:

    • Parts: 10 and 100 (Both are known parts)
    • Wholes: ? and 45.80 (One whole is unknown "?" and one is known as 45.80)

In summary, each scenario is paired with its parts and wholes with some unknown values at different positions. The interpretations of parts and wholes draw upon the context of the mathematical problem or equation being represented, though without further information regarding their relationships it is difficult to be definitive.
