Total number of apples received by a large grocery store = 2 thousand apples
= 2000 apples.
Total number of boxes of apples received by  a neighboring school = 20 boxes
Number of apples in each box = 100 apples
Therefore, the total number of apples received by neighboring school
= [tex] 20 \times 100 [/tex]
= 2000 apples.
Refer to the image for place value disk chart.
Hence, the number of apples received by the school and the number of apples received by the grocery store are equal.
