Is the top portion how addition is taught now?
I think it’s to teach place values using the already learned concept of addition rather than that being the process of teaching addition alone
But… This has no digits in the 10,000s place… What am I missing here?
Ah, now I see the problem: I’m a fool
Happens to the best of us!
Explain, for the other fools (and non-native speakers).
Is it referring to the coefficient of 10^4?
The total number can be broken down to 6 * 1,000,000 + 6 * 100,000 + 6 * 10,000 + 6 * 1,000 + 6 * 100 + 6 * 10 + 6 * 1.
So you could think of it as a number with 6 millions, 6 hundred thousands, 6 ten thousands, 6 thousands, 6 hundreds, 6 tens, and 6 ones.
They just wanted any 7-digit number with 6 ‘ten thousands’ in it, eg: 1,060,000.
Putting a six in all of the positions fulfilled the question’s requirements without actually proving whether or not they understood the question.
