Explanation

(a) Since 10 tens make 100, there are 10 boxes of 10 in one box of 100. (b) Two boxes of 100 equal 200. Since 10 tens make 100, 20 tens make 200. So 20 boxes of 10 fit in two boxes of 100. (c) Four boxes of 100 equal 400. Since 10 tens make 100, 40 tens make 400. So 40 boxes of 10 fit in four boxes of 100. (d) A box of 100 contains 10 boxes of 10 because 10×1010 \times 10 = 100.
