    Answer:well if you move it to the tens place when it was in the hundreds you have divided it by 10 to get to the new number so in theory it's not the new number that's 100 times the original, but the correct answer will be : The Original number is 10 times the new number.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    10x10 = 100

    Move the 1 - > This way you get 10

    We can say 100 is 10x the original being 100

    Just like 600 to 60

    It's 10times the original.

    A whole number has a 6 in the hundreds place, and all of

    its other digits are zero. This means that the number can be

    0600,

    00600,

    000600

    0000600

    The list goes on.

    If the 6 is moved from the

    hundreds place to the tens place and all other digits remain, the new number can be

    0060,

    00060,

    000060

    0000060

    This means that the original number is 10 times the new number. This is because the original number / the new number = 600 / 60 = 10
