10%=0.1
1090×0.1=?

how would i get how many is remained? because 1090×0.1=109 but thats wrong apparently..
Is this question multiple choice? If so, can you please provide the answer choices.
nah there isnt multiple choices... but 109 is apparently incorrect
I have no other choices for you. I see no reason why 109 is incorrect. The word problem form of the question is asking 10% of 1090. I am sorry if I wasn't much help.
