Understanding Place Value

What is the value of the underlined digit?

Question 1.
a. 4,332
_________________
Answer:
300

Explanation:
We know that,
The place value is the value of a digit according to its position in the number such as,
ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, and so on.
So, the place value of 3 in 4,332 is 3 hundred or 300.

b. 52,321
_________________
Answer:
2,000

Explanation:
We know that,
The place value is the value of a digit according to its position in the number such as,
ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, and so on.
So, the place value of 2 in 52,321 is 2 thousand or 2,000.

Write the digit that is in the given place value.

Question 2.
30.146 – hundredth
_________________
Answer:
4

Explanation:
We know that, every digit in a number has a place value on the basis of its position in the number.
But in decimal numbers, the first digit after the decimal represents the tenths place, next digit represents the hundredths place and so on.
So, 4 is in the hundredths place of the given number 30.146.

b. 1,325.12 – thousand
_________________
Answer:
1

Explanation:
We know that the place value is the value of a digit,
Face value is the actual value of the digit,
whereas place value is the position of a digit in a number.
From the given number 1,325.12, 1 is in the thousands place.
So, based on the above given chart,
the place value of 1 in 1,325.12 is written as 1 thousands or 1,000.

Question 3.
a. 1.325 – tenth
Answer:
3

Explanation:
We know that, every digit in a number has a place value on the basis of its position in the number.
But in decimal numbers, the first digit after the decimal represents the tenths place, next digit represents the hundredths place and so on.
So, 3 is in the tenths place of the given number 1.325.

b. 731.045 – one
Answer:
1

Explanation:
We know that the place value is the value of a digit,
Face value is the actual value of the digit,
whereas place value is the position of a digit in a number.
From the given number 731.045, 1 is in the ones place.
So, based on the above given chart,
the place value of 1 in 731.045 is written as 1 ones or 1.

Convert each power of ten to a standard number.

Question 4.
a. 104 _______
Answer:
10,000

Explanation:
An exponent is a number that shows how many times a base number is to be used in multiplication.
A power of ten is an exponent where the base number is always 10.
104 = 10 × 10 × 10 × 10  = 10,000
So, 104 is written as 10,000.

b. 106 _______
Answer:
1,000,000

Explanation:
An exponent is a number that shows how many times a base number is to be used in multiplication.
A power of ten is an exponent where the base number is always 10.
106 = 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000,000
So, 106 is written as 1000,000.

Multiply or divide by the given power of ten.

Question 5.
a. 8.75 × 1,000 _______
Answer:
8,750

Explanation:
We know that,
when a number is multiplied by a multiple of 10,
the number of zeros and decimals in the product will vary based on the value of the multiple of 10 that is used and the decimal in the product moves to the right and zeros are added to the left of the decimal when needed.
So, 8.75 × 1,000 = 8,750

b. 7,643 ÷ 100 _____
Answer:
76.43

Explanation:
We know that,
When a number is divided by a multiple of 10,
the number of zeros and decimals in the quotient will vary based on the value of the multiple of 10 that is used and the decimal in the quotient moves to the left and zeros are added to the right of the decimal when needed.
So, 7643 ÷ 100 = 76.43

Question 6.
a. 45.67 × 1,000 ________
Answer:
45,670

Explanation:
We know that,
when a number is multiplied by a multiple of 10,
the number of zeros and decimals in the product will vary based on the value of the multiple of 10 that is used and the decimal in the product moves to the right and zeros are added to the left of the decimal when needed.
So, 45.67 × 1,000  = 45,670

b. 34,981 ÷ 1,000 _____
Answer:
34.981

Explanation:
We know that,
When a number is divided by a multiple of 10,
the number of zeros and decimals in the quotient will vary based on the value of the multiple of 10 that is used and the decimal in the quotient moves to the left and zeros are added to the right of the decimal when needed.

Write the numbers in expanded form.

Question 7.
a. 592,682
_________________
Answer:
500,000 + 90,000 + 2,000 + 600 + 80 + 2

Explanation:
We know that,
Expanded form is a method to show the sum of values of each digit of a number.
In expanded form we separate a number into each of its parts using place value.
Given,
592,682 = 500,000 + 90,000 + 2,000 + 600 + 80 + 2
5 in hundred thousands place is written as 5 x 100,000 = 500,000
9 in ten thousands place is written as 9 x 10,000 = 90, 000
2 in thousands place is written as 2 x 1000 = 2,000
6 in hundreds places is written as 6 x 100 = 600.
8 in tens place is written as 8 x 10 = 80.
2 in ones place is written as 2 x 1 = 2.
So, the sum of500,000 + 90,000 + 2,000 + 600 + 80 + 2 = 592,682

b. 78.364
_________________
Answer:
70 + 8 + 0.3 +0.06 + 0.004

Explanation:
To write a decimal numbers in expanded form,
we need to break down each digit according to its place value.
First start with the whole numbers by identifying the place values of numbers as ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, and so on.
Then, move on to the decimal part as tenths, hundredths, and thousandths places.
So, 78.364 is written as 70 + 8 + 0.3 +0.06 + 0.004

Compare each pair of decimals using <, >, or =.

Question 8.
a. 6.203 ____ 6.214
Answer:
6.203 < 6.214

Explanation:

If the numbers are same, then go to the next number after the decimal.
The number in tenth place are same.
So, move to the hundredths place, the numbers are different.
Hence, 6.203 < 6.214 or 6.203 is less than 6.214.

b. 2.4 _____ 2.400
Answer:
2.4 = 2.400

Explanation:
Compare the whole number part first.
If the numbers are same, then go to the next number after the decimal.
The number in tenth place are same.
There is no value for zero in the decimal numbers at the last.
So, 2.4 = 2.400

c. 48.28 ____ 46.281
Answer:
48.28 > 46.281

Explanation:
Compare the whole number part first.
If the numbers are same in tens place, then go to the next ones place.
So, 48.28 > 46.281 or 48.28 is greater than 46.281.

Question 9.
a. 72.355 _____ 72.335
Answer:
72.355 > 72.335

Explanation:

The number in tenth place are same.
Then move to the hundredths place.
So, 72.355 > 72.335 or 72.355 is greater than 72.335.

b. 5.76 ____ 50.76
Answer:
5.76 < 50.76

Explanation:
Compare the whole number part first.
The numbers in tens place are different.
So, 5.76 < 50.76 or 5.76 is less than 50.76.

c. 9.763 ____ 9.673
Answer:
9.763 > 9.673

Explanation:
Compare the whole number part first.
The numbers in tens place are same, then go to the ones place.
So, 9.763 > 9.673 or 9.763 is greater than 9.673.
