Respuesta :
Multiplication operation is used when asked to find one-tenth as large as another number
Solution:
Given that, We have to find what operation would we use when asked to find one – tenth as large as another number
In the given statement "one – tenth as large as another number " means a number is 1/10 times as large as another number" Here we have to use multiplication operation
Now, let another number be "a", and the resulting number be "b"
Then, "b" is one – tenth as large as "a"
[tex]\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow \mathrm{b} \text { is } \frac{1}{10} \text { as large as a }} \\\\ {\rightarrow \mathrm{b}=\frac{1}{10} \text { as large as a }} \\\\ {\rightarrow \mathrm{b}=\frac{1}{10} \times \mathrm{a}}\end{array}[/tex]
So, here we used multiplication operation to find the result.
