3 tenths multiplied by 100 place value chart


Asked by maham237 @ in English viewed by 736 People


Ted says that 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equal 300 thousandths. Is he correct? Use place value chart to explain your answer.

Answered by maham237 @



No, Ted is not correct because 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equal to 30 not 300 thousandths.


Further explanation:


According to Ted 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equal 300 thousandths.


From place value chart, 3 tenths is written as follows:

3\,\,{\text{tenths}}=3\times\left({0.1}\right)\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\left({{\text{tenth}}=0.1}\right)


This is further simplified to 0.3.


Now, multiply 3 tenths to 100 as shown below:

\begin{aligned}\left({3\,\,{\text{tenths}}}\right)\times100&=\left({0.3}\right)\times100\\&=30\\\end{aligned}


From the above calculation, the value of 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equals to 30.


Now, find the simplified value of Ted’s proposed answer which is 300 thousandths by the use of place value chart.

\begin{aligned}300\,\,{\text{thousandths}}&=3\times\left({0.001}\right)\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\left({{\text{thousandths}}=0.001}\right)\\&=0.003\\\end{aligned}


The answer suggest by Ted is wrong as it does not match the correct answer which is 30.


Thus, Ted is not correct because 3 tenths multiplied by 100 equal to 30 not 300 thousandths.
