Problem Description:
The image shows an abacus with beads in different columns labeled as
Th (Thousands),
H (Hundreds),
T (Tens), and
O (Ones). The task is to interpret the number represented by the beads on the abacus.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Understanding the Abacus Columns:
- The abacus has four columns, each representing a place value:
-
Th (Thousands): Represents the thousands place.
-
H (Hundreds): Represents the hundreds place.
-
T (Tens): Represents the tens place.
-
O (Ones): Represents the ones place.
2.
Counting the Beads in Each Column:
-
Th (Thousands) Column: There are 4 yellow beads in this column.
-
H (Hundreds) Column: There are no beads in this column.
-
T (Tens) Column: There are 6 orange beads in this column.
-
O (Ones) Column: There are 5 purple beads in this column.
3.
Interpreting the Beads as Digits:
- Each bead in the
Th (Thousands) column represents 1 thousand. Since there are 4 beads, this contributes
4000 to the total number.
- Each bead in the
H (Hundreds) column represents 1 hundred. Since there are 0 beads, this contributes
0 to the total number.
- Each bead in the
T (Tens) column represents 1 ten. Since there are 6 beads, this contributes
60 to the total number.
- Each bead in the
O (Ones) column represents 1 one. Since there are 5 beads, this contributes
5 to the total number.
4.
Calculating the Total Number:
- Summing up the contributions from each column:
\[
4000 + 0 + 60 + 5 = 4065
\]
Final Answer:
The number represented by the beads on the abacus is:
\[
\boxed{4065}
\]
