The value of the 8 in five hundred thirty eight thousand six hundred ninety two is how many times the value of the aid in four hundred twenty seven thousand eight hundred fifty six

Answer 1

To find the values of the digits in the numbers provided, we can break them down as follows:

1. Five hundred thirty-eight thousand six hundred ninety-two (538,692):

   • The value of the 8 in this number is in the thousands place.
   • Therefore, the value of the 8 is \(8 \times 1,000 = 8,000\).

2. Four hundred twenty-seven thousand eight hundred fifty-six (427,856):

   • The value of the 4 in this number is in the hundred thousands place.
   • Therefore, the value of the 4 is \(4 \times 100,000 = 400,000\).

Now, we can determine how many times the value of the 8 (which is 8,000) fits into the value of the 4 (which is 400,000).

To find this, we perform the division:

\[ \frac{400,000}{8,000} = 50 \]

Thus, the value of the 8 in five hundred thirty-eight thousand six hundred ninety-two is 50 times the value of the 4 in four hundred twenty-seven thousand eight hundred fifty-six.
