<\/span><\/h2>\nTo determine the place value of a number, follow these simple steps:<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/b> Start by identifying the digit in question. For example, let’s take the number 3857.<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/b> Now, write down the place value names in a line, starting from right to left. The order typically follows ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, millions, etc.<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/b> Assign a place value name to each digit, starting from the rightmost digit. In our example, the rightmost digit is 7, which represents ones. The next digit, 5, is in the tens place. The digit 8 represents the hundreds place, and the leftmost digit 3 is in the thousands place.<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/b> Combine the digit and its corresponding place value in a sentence. In our example, the number 3857 can be written as “3 thousands, 8 hundreds, 5 tens, and 7 ones.”<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/b> You can also represent the number as an addition sentence. In this case, it would be 3000 + 800 + 50 + 7.<\/p>\n
Step 6:<\/b> Congratulations! You have successfully written the place value of the number.<\/p>\n
