Answer 1

The correct option is A 226,140 and 463,525

The first number is two hundred twenty-six thousand one hundred forty and the second number is four hundred sixty-three thousand five hundred twenty-five.
Let’s write the numbers in the place value chart. We will start by first writing in the thousands periods and then in the ones period.
The ones period is made up of three place values: ones, tens, and hundreds. The thousands is made up of three place values: one, ten, and hundred.
$\begin{array}{cccccc}& \text{Thousands Period}& & & \text{Ones Period}& \\ H& T& O& H& T& O\\ 2& 2& 6& 1& 4& 0\end{array}$
Thus, the first number is 226,140.
Similarly, write the second number, four hundred sixty-three thousand five hundred twenty-five, in the thousands period and then in the ones period.
The ones period is made up of three place values: ones, tens, and hundreds. The thousands period is made up of three place values: one, ten, and hundred.
$\begin{array}{cccccc}& \text{Thousands Period}& & & \text{Ones Period}& \\ H& T& O& H& T& O\\ 4& 6& 3& 5& 2& 5\end{array}$
Thus, the second number is 463,525.
