Respuesta :

The sum of two numbers 5.036.
first number: one number has 4 in the tenths place, 7 in the thousandths place.
=> x.4x7
2nd number: 1 in ones place and 2 in the hundredths place.
=> 1.x2x
Now, we have the 2 numbers with given clues:
=> x.4x7 + 1.x2x, where x is the missing number.
Note that in adding numbers, we start from the right most.
=>x.4x7 + 1.x2x = 5.036
=> x.4x7 + 1.x29
=> x.407 + 1.x29
=> x.407 + 1.629
=> 3.407 + 1.629
=> 5.036
