Question

What is the sum of the place values of the two 7’s in 7678?

• A. 7700
• B. 6370
• C. 7070
• D. 7770

Answer 1

The correct option is C

7070

$\begin{array}{cccc}\text{Th}& \text{H}& \text{T}& \text{O}\\ 7& 6& 7& 8\end{array}$

The place values of the two 7's in the number $\underset{–}{7}6\underset{–}{7}8$ are $7\times 1000=7000$ and $7\times 10=70.$

So, the required sum is 7000 + 70 = 7070.
