What is the relationship between the values of the 4s in 4,438?

Asked by Gigiwilson05

Answer (2)

They do not mean the same thing: 4 in 4000 stands for 4 thousands 4 in 400 stands for 4 hundreds In this case: 4438 = 4 ⋅ 1000 + 4 ⋅ 400 + 3 ⋅ 30 + 8 You can see, that first '4' means 4 000, while the second one means 400, so the first one is 10 times greater.

In 4,438, the first '4' represents 4,000 while the second '4' represents 400. Therefore, the first '4' is ten times greater than the second one. Understanding this concept is essential for grasping the place value system in mathematics.
