Math Problem Statement

Alina wrote the number 295,684 on the board in which number is the value of the digit five is exactly 10 times the value of the digit five in the number Alina wrote

Solution

In the number 295,684, the digit 5 is in the thousands place. Its value is therefore 5,000.

To find a number where the value of the digit 5 is exactly 10 times this value, we multiply 5,000 by 10, which gives 50,000.

Thus, the digit 5 needs to be in the ten thousands place in the new number to have a value of 50,000. An example of such a number could be 350,000.
