A number is described loosely as 3 hundreds, 18 tens, and 12 ones -- the tens and ones may go past a single digit, so I first regroup to find the real number. Then I subtract 200 from it and ask how many tens make up that result.
- The number is 3 hundreds, 18 tens, and 12 ones.
- A second number is 200 less than this one.
- How many tens make up the number that is 200 less.
- 10 ones regroup into 1 ten; 10 tens regroup into 1 hundred.
- 'How many tens' means the total value divided into groups of ten.
