This is a statement in a math test.
The previous statement says: Represent each addend with number disks in the place value chart. And then it asks the student to show the composition or larger units from 10 smaller units.
Can't quite figure out what they are supposed to do.

mostrar cómo cada grupo mayor se compone de subgrupos de diez unidades menores
A diagram has intervals for units, tens, hundreds, thousands ... millions.
Some number of units in one of these intervals (e.g. 4 thousands) is shown to be made up of the same number of columns of 10 of the next smallest units (here
4 columns, each 10 high, of hundreds). So 4 thousands = 40 hundreds.
And that in turn is 400 tens or 4,000 units.

explica cómo las unidades mayores están compuestas por 10 unidades menores
Entiendo que está pidiendo al alumno que explique o muestre cómo en el sistema decimal, 10 unidades menores forman un unidad mayor. Por ejemplo:
1 dam = 10 m
1 m = 10 dm
1 dm = 10 cm
etc
1 dam = 10 m
1 m = 10 dm
1 dm = 10 cm
etc
