Respuesta :

these two equations are the same in solving, with this difference that after you compute 7*2=14 you put 1 zero or 3 zero in front of 14.

7*2,0=14,0
7*2,000=14,000 

Answer:

[tex]7\times 20=140[/tex]

[tex]7\times 2000=14000[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Explain how finding [tex]7\times 20[/tex] is similar to finding [tex]7\times 2,000[/tex] then find both products ?

Solution :

First we find the product of [tex]7\times 20[/tex]

[tex]7\times 20=140[/tex] .....(1)

Now, to find the product of [tex]7\times 2,000[/tex]

We can re-write the product as,

[tex]7\times 2,000=7\times 20\times 100[/tex]

Using (1),

[tex]7\times 2,000=140\times 100[/tex]

[tex]7\times 2,000=14000[/tex]

It is similar as the difference is about the multiple of 10.
