Respuesta: 4,000

Explicación paso a paso: para este caso estamos viendo cuántas veces encaja 0.02 en 80. 0.02 * 50 = 1, así que luego multiplicamos 50 * 80 y obtenemos nuestra respuesta de 4,000. Espero que esto sea útil

Explanation

This can be simplified as follows:

10 times a given quantity of _____ hundreds results in 60 hundreds
60 hundreds convert to _____ thousands

We will divide this into two segments:

$\boxed{ \ 10 \times (N \times 100) = 60 \times 100 \ }$ ... Equation-1

$\boxed{ \ 60 \times 100) = M \times 1,000 \ }$ ... Equation-2

This straightforward multiplication relates to the place value system. We need to perform calculations to find the values of N and M.

Initially, let's focus on Equation-1.

We will move the variable M to one side of the equation in order to isolate it and solve for its value.

$\boxed{ \ 10 \times (N \times 100) = 60 \times 100 \ }$

$\boxed{ \ 1,000 \times N = 6,000 \ }$

Both parts will be divided by 1,000, essentially being multiplied by $\frac{1}{1,000}$ .

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{1,000} \times 1,000 \times N = \frac{1}{1,000} \times 6,000 \ }$

Thus, we conclude with $\boxed{\boxed{ \ N = 6 \ }}$

Next, we process Equation-2 to derive M's value.

$\boxed{ \ 60 \times 100) = M \times 1,000 \ }$

$\boxed{ \ 6,000 = M \times 1,000 \ }$

Rearranging this equation to place M on the left side appears as follows:

$\boxed{ \ M \times 1,000 = 6,000 \ }$

Again, both sides undergo division by 1,000, which translates to multiplication by $\frac{1}{1,000}.$ .

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{1,000} \times M \times 1,000 = \frac{1}{1,000} \times 6,000 \ }$

This results in $\boxed{\boxed{ \ M = 6 \ }}$

- - - - - - -

Alternative approach for the second step:

60 hundreds equals to __ thousands

$\boxed{ \ 6 \times 10 \ hundreds = \ M \ thousands} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ 6 \times thousands = \ M \ thousands} \ }$

$\boxed{\boxed{ \ M = 6 \ }}$
