Question

UnitsTensHundreds47

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the problem of representing the number using hundreds, tens, and units, follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the digit in the Hundreds place.
  • The hundreds digit is 4, which represents 4×100=4004 \times 100 = 400.

  • Step 2: Identify the digit in the Tens place.
  • There is no digit shown for the tens place, which means it is 0, representing 0×10=00 \times 10 = 0.

  • Step 3: Identify the digit in the Units place.
  • The units digit is 7, which represents 7×1=77 \times 1 = 7.

Adding these together, we have:

400+0+7=407400 + 0 + 7 = 407.

Therefore, the number 407 can be represented as the sum 400+7400 + 7, since the tens place contributes nothing.

The correct choice that matches this representation is:

400+7=407 400+7=407

Answer

400+7=407 400+7=407
