The image is a math worksheet titled
"GROUP TENS AS HUNDREDS". It's designed to help students understand how to group tens into hundreds and convert them into numbers.
Let’s break down the content and solve the problem step by step:
---
🔹 Visual Elements in the Image
1.
Top Section:
- There are
20 rows of
10 vertical sticks each (called "ten sticks").
- Each row represents
10 tens, which equals
100.
- So, 20 rows = 20 × 100 =
2000.
2.
Two Circles Below:
- Each circle shows a
grid of 10 ten-sticks (i.e., 100 units).
- These represent
one hundred each.
- The first circle has 10 ten-sticks → 100.
- The second circle also has 10 ten-sticks → 100.
- Together: 100 + 100 =
200.
3.
Box on the Bottom Left:
- States:
-
10 ten sticks = 100
-
20 tens = ? hundreds
-
200 number
4.
Box on the Bottom Right:
- A
trick: *"Add a 0 to the number of tens you have and that will be your number."*
- Example: "I have 20 tens so my number will be 200."

✔ Solving the Problem
We are asked to determine how many
hundreds are in
20 tens.
#### Step 1: Understand what "tens" mean
- One ten = 10
- So, 20 tens = 20 × 10 =
200
#### Step 2: Convert 200 into hundreds
- One hundred = 100
- So, 200 ÷ 100 =
2 hundreds
✔ Therefore,
20 tens = 2 hundreds = 200
---
🧠 Using the Trick
> "Add a 0 to the number of tens you have..."
- You have
20 tens
- Add a zero: 20 → 200
- That gives you
200, which matches the total value.
This trick works because:
- 20 tens = 20 × 10 = 200
- Adding a zero to 20 is like multiplying by 10 → 20 × 10 = 200
---
✔ Final Answer:
-
20 tens = 2 hundreds = 200
- The trick confirms it: 20 → add a 0 → 200
---
📝 Summary:
The worksheet teaches that:
-
10 tens = 1 hundred
- So,
20 tens = 2 hundreds = 200
- The visual representation with ten-sticks helps students see this grouping.
- The trick ("add a zero") is a shortcut for multiplying tens by 10 to get the total number.
✔ Answer: 20 tens =
2 hundreds =
200.
