Which one of the following is the correct expanded form for the numera...
Expanded form is a way to write a number as the sum of its place values. In this case, the number is 646003254. Let's break it down into its place values:
- Hundred millions: 6 hundred millions (600,000,000)
- Ten millions: 4 million (4,000,000)
- Millions: 6 million (6,000,000)

- Thousands: 2 thousand (2,000)
- Hundreds: 5 hundred (500)
- Tens: 4 tens (40)

So the expanded form for the numeral 646003254 is:
600,000,000 + 4,000,000 + 6,000,000 + 300,000 + 2,000 + 500 + 40 + 4
Among the given options, the correct expanded form is:
b) 600,000,000 + 4,000,000 + 6,000,000 + 300,000 + 2,000 + 50 + 4
Let's see why the other options are incorrect:
a) 600,000,000 + 4,000,000 + 600,000 + 30,000 + 200 + 50 + 4
This option has incorrect place values for millions and hundreds of thousands.
c) 600,000,000 + 4,000,000 + 600,000 + 300,000 + 200 + 50 + 4
This option has incorrect place values for millions and hundreds.
d) 600,000,000 + 40,000,000 + 600,000 + 300,000 + 200 + 50 + 4
This option has incorrect place values for ten millions and hundreds.
e) None of these
This option is not the correct expanded form for the given numeral.
Therefore, the correct expanded form for the numeral 646003254 is option b) 600,000,000 + 4,000,000 + 6,000,000 + 300,000 + 2,000 + 50 + 4.
