Question

Jeff picks a number with 2 tens 42 ones. victor picks a number with 3 tens 51 ones. what number does each child pick?

Answer 1

Jeff: 62

Victor: 81

Explanation:

Jeff has a number with 2 tens, and 42 ones. We can write out our 2 tens like this: 10 + 10 = 20

Next, he has 42 ones. This is just another way of saying '42'

So, jeff picked a number that is 20 + 42 = 62

Now, Victor. Victor has a number with 3 tens. This is saying: 10 + 10 + 10 which is 30. He has 51 ones, which is just the number 51.

So, Victor's number is 30 + 51 = 81
