From the figure

A small square represents 10 for Jade's diagram

A small square represents 1 for Lin's diagram

From the figure, we have:

Rectangles = 2 (20 squares)

Square = 3

Represent 1 square with x.

So, the number is represented as:

Number = 20x + 3xNumber=20x+3x

Number = 23xNumber=23x

Jade says the number represents 230.

So, we have:

23x = 23023x=230

Divide through by 23

x = 10x=10

This means that:

A small square represents 10 for Jade's diagram

Lin says the number represents 23.

So, we have:

23x = 2323x=23

Divide through by 23

x = 1x=1

This means that:

A small square represents 1 for Lin's diagram
