Answer: 6500 is not 10 times as much as 65.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to check whether 6500 is 10 times as much as 65 or not.

Let 6500 be x times as much as 65.

Then, we must have

$65* x=6500\\\\\Rightarrow x=(6500)/(65)\\\\\Rightarrow x=100.$

Therefore, 6500 is 100 times as much as 65.

Thus, 6500 is not 10 times as much as 65.
