What is the correct breakdown of the number 25 into tens and ones?
20 + 5
10 + 15
15 + 10
5 + 20
In 25, the digit in the tens place represents 20 and the ones place represents 5. This standard decomposition reflects the value of each digit correctly.
When breaking down the number 40 by place value, which option is correct?
30 + 10
20 + 20
40 + 0
10 + 30
The number 40 has a tens digit of 4, meaning 40, and a ones digit of 0. Thus, its proper place value decomposition is 40 + 0.
If you decompose 53 into tens and ones, which of the following is correct?
53 + 0
50 + 3
30 + 23
40 + 13
53 is made up of 5 tens (50) and 3 ones (3). Expressing it as 50 + 3 properly reflects its tens and ones values.
What is the decomposed form of the number 81 in terms of tens and ones?
81 + 0
80 + 1
70 + 11
60 + 21
The number 81 consists of 8 tens, which is 80, and 1 one. Therefore, the correct place value breakdown is 80 + 1.
Decompose the number 19 into tens and ones.
5 + 14
15 + 4
19 + 0
10 + 9
In 19, the tens digit is 1 which represents 10, and the ones digit is 9. Breaking it down as 10 + 9 accurately reflects its composition based on place value.
Which of the following shows a correct decomposition of 134 into hundreds, tens, and ones?
100 + 34
110 + 24
100 + 30 + 4
130 + 4
134 is composed of 1 hundred (100), 3 tens (30), and 4 ones (4). The option '100 + 30 + 4' correctly represents this breakdown by place value.
Decompose the number 47 into tens and ones. Which option is correct?
47 + 0
30 + 17
40 + 7
20 + 27
In 47, the digit 4 corresponds to 40 and the digit 7 corresponds to 7. Thus, breaking it as 40 + 7 accurately reflects its decomposition into tens and ones.
Which of the following correctly decomposes both 39 and 47 into tens and ones for easier mental addition?
39: 30 + 9 and 47: 30 + 17
39: 20 + 19 and 47: 20 + 27
39: 39 + 0 and 47: 47 + 0
39: 30 + 9 and 47: 40 + 7
The proper decomposition for 39 is 30 + 9 and for 47 is 40 + 7, which neatly separates the tens and ones. This method simplifies addition by allowing separate calculations on the tens and ones.
Decompose the number 125 into hundreds, tens, and ones.
100 + 20 + 5
120 + 5 + 0
110 + 10 + 5
100 + 25 + 0
The number 125 is broken down into 1 hundred (100), 2 tens (20), and 5 ones (5). Therefore, the correct decomposition is 100 + 20 + 5.
When decomposing the number 99 into tens and ones, which option is correct?
90 + 10
80 + 19
90 + 9
100 - 1
In the number 99, the tens digit is 9 representing 90, and the ones digit is 9. Hence, the decomposition 90 + 9 correctly reflects its tens and ones components.
Decompose the number 68 into tens and ones.
70 - 2
60 + 8
50 + 18
80 + 6
In 68, the 6 in the tens place represents 60 and the 8 in the ones place represents 8. The correct breakdown by place value is 60 + 8.
When decomposing the number 142, which addend represents the tens value?
2
142
40
100
In the number 142, the middle digit is 4 which represents 40 (4 tens). Identifying this is key to correctly decomposing the number into hundreds, tens, and ones.
Using place value, which option correctly decomposes 89?
90 - 1
70 + 19
80 + 9
50 + 39
The number 89 is made up of 8 tens (80) and 9 ones (9). Thus, the decomposition 80 + 9 accurately reflects its composition by place value.
Decomposing the number 73 into tens and ones gives which of the following?
30 + 43
73 + 0
70 + 3
60 + 13
In 73, the digit 7 represents 70 and the digit 3 represents 3. Therefore, the correct decomposition into tens and ones is 70 + 3.
Which of the following correctly decomposes the number 110 to reflect its place values?
50 + 60
90 + 20
100 + 10 + 0
110 + 0
The number 110 consists of 1 hundred (100), 1 ten (10), and 0 ones. The breakdown 100 + 10 + 0 clearly shows each place value.
When decomposing 254 by grouping the hundreds separately and combining the tens and ones, which option is correct?
200 + 50 + 4
200 + 54
210 + 44
250 + 4
By separating the hundreds from the tens and ones, 254 can be viewed as 200 (from the hundreds) plus 54 (combining tens and ones). This grouping simplifies the number while preserving its value.
Which of the following is a valid decomposition of 393 that utilizes a rounding strategy for estimation?
300 + 93
390 + 3
350 + 43
400 - 7
Rounding 393 up to 400 and then subtracting 7 is an effective estimation strategy. This approach employs a round number to simplify calculations while adjusting for the difference.
To facilitate mental multiplication by 9, which decomposition of 237 is most effective?
237 + 0
200 + 30 + 7
240 - 3
230 + 7
Decomposing 237 as 240 - 3 leverages the ease of multiplying a round number (240) by 9, then adjusting by subtracting 3 multiplied by 9. This method uses the distributive property to simplify mental multiplication.
Which of the following is the correct two-step decomposition of 58 that rounds to a nearby multiple of 10 and adjusts for the difference?
65 - 7
70 - 12
50 + 8
60 - 2
By rounding 58 up to 60 and then subtracting 2, you achieve a two-step decomposition that is helpful for mental calculations. This method simplifies the process by using a nearby round number.
What is the best decomposition of 19 to use in a compensation strategy for subtraction?
15 + 4
20 - 1
19 + 0
10 + 9
Decomposing 19 as 20 - 1 is particularly useful in compensation strategies where subtracting a round number simplifies the process, followed by a small adjustment. This breakdown makes mental subtraction more manageable.
