Place Value Puzzle: Finding Numbers with Units Digit = Hundredths + 3

Question

Choose a number whose units digit is larger by 3 than its hundredths digit.

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we need to evaluate each given number to ensure the units digit is 3 more than the hundredths digit:

Let's analyze the possible answer choices:

  • 508:
  • - Hundredths digit: 55
    - Units digit: 88

    Check condition: 88 (units) is indeed 3 more than 55 (hundredths). This option satisfies the condition.

  • 333:
  • - Hundredths digit: 33
    - Units digit: 33

    Check condition: 33 is not 3 more than 33. This option does not satisfy the condition.

  • 623:
  • - Hundredths digit: 66
    - Units digit: 33

    Check condition: 33 (units) is not 3 more than 66 (hundredths). This option does not satisfy the condition.

  • 125:
  • - Hundredths digit: 11
    - Units digit: 55

    Check condition: 55 (units) is 4 more than 11 (hundredths), not 3. This option does not satisfy the condition.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 508 508 .

Answer
