24.58 = 2 × 10 + 4 × 1 + 5 × 10 + 8 × 100. State whether the statement is true or false.

Solution:

Given, 24.58 = 2 × 10 + 4 × 1 + 5 × 10 + 8 × 100

RHS: 2 × 10 + 4 × 1 + 5 × 10 + 8 × 100

2 × 10 = 20

4 × 1 = 4

5 × 10 = 50

8 × 100 = 800

2 × 10 + 4 × 1 + 5 × 10 + 8 × 100 = 20 + 4 + 50 + 800

= 74 + 800

= 874

≠ 24.58

LHS ≠ RHS

Therefore, 2 × 10 + 4 × 1 + 5 × 10 + 8 × 100 = 874.

✦ Try This: 389 = 3 × 100 + 8 × 1 + 9 × 10. State whether the statement is true or false.
