The digit in the thousands place is 1/3 the value of the digit in the hundreds place. B. The digit in the hundred thousands place is 10 times the value of the digit in the ten thousands place. C. The digit in the ten thousands place is 33 times the value of the digit in the thousands place. D. The digit in the hundreds place is 1/10 the value of the digit in the thousands place.

The digits are all exactly the same. This means that when we move from one place value to the next, we're moving in multiples of 10. Example: 30 = 3x10. So we can conclude that: The digit in the tens place is 10 times the value of the digit in the ones place. Understand that much?

nope

Err wait wait they said "the digit"... hmm Oh boy this is worded very poorly. Every "digit" is exactly the same. I don't think that's what they intended to say though.

No? You don't understand the example? If I take the number 33, It's 30 and 3, yes? So the tens place is a 3, think of it as 30. The ones place is 3. 30 is 10 times the ones place value, yes?
