d) 9 tens 23 ones > 90 tens
Answer: c) 2 hundred 15 ones < 55 tens 12 ones
Explanation: To compare the numbers, we need to convert them to the same units. Let's convert both sides into ones:
2 hundred 15 ones < 55 tens 12 ones
200 + 15 < 55 * 10 + 12
215 ones < 562 ones
Now we can see that 215 ones are less than 562 ones, so the statement is correct:
2 hundred 15 ones < 55 tens 12 ones
