5. How do you write 736,980 in expanded form?

Explanation

The correct answer for writing 736,980 in expanded form is 700,000 + 30,000 + 6,000 + 900 + 80. This is because expanded form breaks down a number into its place values, with each digit representing a specific value based on its position. In this case, the digit 7 represents 700,000 (7 multiplied by 100,000), the digit 3 represents 30,000 (3 multiplied by 10,000), the digit 6 represents 6,000 (6 multiplied by 1,000), the digit 9 represents 900 (9 multiplied by 100), and the digit 8 represents 80 (8 multiplied by 10). Adding all these values together gives us the expanded form of 736,980.

Explanation

The property demonstrated by "3 + 5 = 5 + 3" is the Commutative Property of Addition. This property states that the order in which numbers are added does not affect the result. In other words, when adding two numbers, the sum will be the same regardless of the order in which the numbers are added. In this case, it doesn't matter if we add 3 and 5 or 5 and 3, the result will always be 8.

Submit

14. When is a whole number is divisible by 9?

Explanation

A whole number is divisible by 9 when the sum of its digits is divisible by 9. This is because when we divide a number by 9, we are essentially dividing each digit by 9 and adding them together. If the sum is divisible by 9, then the whole number is divisible by 9.

15. If 540 people each eat 1 slice of pizza and each pizza has 8 slices, how many pizzas need to be ordered?

Explanation

If 540 people each eat 1 slice of pizza and each pizza has 8 slices, we can find the number of pizzas needed by dividing the total number of slices required (540) by the number of slices in each pizza (8). This gives us 67.5, which means we need 68 pizzas to ensure that each person gets a slice.

Submit
16. Which property is demonstrated in "2 + (3 + 4) = (2 + 3) + 4"?

Explanation

The given equation "2 + (3 + 4) = (2 + 3) + 4" demonstrates the Associative Property of Addition. This property states that the grouping of numbers being added does not affect the sum. In other words, it doesn't matter how we group the numbers being added, the sum will remain the same. In this case, we can group the numbers in two different ways: either by adding 3 and 4 first, or by adding 2 and 3 first. Both ways will result in the same sum of 9.
