Explanation:

the digit 2 in the ten millions place has the value as indicated :

2 × 10,000,000 = 20,000,000 (twenty millions).

the digit 2 in the hundred thousands places has also the value as indicated :

2 × 100,000 = 200,000 (two hundred thousand).

so, how many times is

20,000,000 larger than

200,000 ?

by counting the zeros, we see that the first number has 2 zeros more.

2 zeros corresponds to 100 (the power of ten with 2 zeros).

therefore,

the 2 in the ten millions place is 100 times the value of the 2 in the hundred thousands place.
