Lesson Introduction Numeration is the foundation of mathematics. Place value helps us understand the worth of each digit in a number based on its position. This concept is crucial when dealing with very large integers or precise decimal numbers. In this lesson, we explore place value in both integers and decimals, learn to expand numbers, and apply these ideas to solve advanced problems. Place Value in Integers In integers, each position (from right to left) increases in value by a factor of 10. For example, in the number [latex] 56,478 [/latex], the digit 5 represents fifty thousand, while the digit 8 represents eight ones. Example 1: Find the value of the digit 7 in the number [latex] 4,726,519 [/latex]. Solution: The digit 7 is in the hundred thousands place. Therefore, its value is [latex] 700,000 [/latex]. Example 2: What is the place value and face value of 3 in [latex] 93,841 [/latex]? Solution: Face value of 3 = [latex] 3 [/latex]. Place value = [latex] 3,000 [/latex] since it is in the thousands place. Example 3: In [latex] 8,305,467 [/latex], determine the total value contributed by the digits 8 and 5. Solution: 8 is in the millions place → [latex] 8,000,000 [/latex]. 5 is in the ten thousands place → [latex] 50,000 [/latex]. Total = [latex] 8,050,000 [/latex]. Exercises (Place Value in Integers) State the place value of 9 in [latex] 9,246,517 [/latex]. Find the total value of the digits 2 and 4 in [latex] 2,478,902 [/latex]. Place Value in Decimals In decimals, each position (from left to right after the decimal point) decreases in value by a factor of 10. For example, in [latex] 45.372 [/latex], the digit 3 is in the tenths place ([latex] 0.3 [/latex]), 7 is in the hundredths place ([latex] 0.07 [/latex]), and 2 is in the thousandths place ([latex] 0.002 [/latex]). Example 4: Find the value of the digit 6 in [latex] 82.463 [/latex]. Solution: 6 is in the hundredths place, so its value = [latex] 0.06 [/latex]. Example 5: In [latex] 59.028 [/latex], what is the place value of 8? Solution: 8 is in the thousandths place. Therefore, its value = [latex] 0.008 [/latex]. Example 6: Compare the contribution of 4 in [latex] 7.405 [/latex] and in [latex] 740.5 [/latex]. Solution: In [latex] 7.405 [/latex], 4 is in the tenths place → [latex] 0.4 [/latex]. In [latex] 740.5 [/latex], 4 is in the tens place → [latex] 40 [/latex]. Thus, place value changes drastically with position. Exercises (Place Value in Decimals) State the value of 7 in [latex] 96.071 [/latex]. What is the contribution of 5 in [latex] 0.0523 [/latex]? Expanded Form Representation Any number can be expressed as the sum of the values of its digits. This is known as expanded form. Example 7: Write [latex] 56,384 [/latex] in expanded form. Solution: [latex] 56,384 = 50,000 + 6,000 + 300 + 80 + 4 [/latex]. Example 8: Express [latex] 84.72 [/latex] in expanded form. Solution: [latex] 84.72 = 80 + 4 + 0.7 + 0.02 [/latex]. Example 9: Expand [latex] 9,045.206 [/latex]. Solution: [latex] 9,000 + 40 + 5 + 0.2 + 0.006 [/latex]. Exercises (Expanded Form) Write [latex] 73,408 [/latex] in expanded form. Expand [latex] 52.309 [/latex]. Comparing and Ordering Numbers Place value helps in comparing numbers. Start from the leftmost digit and compare place by place until a difference is found. Example 10: Which is greater: [latex] 54,278 [/latex] or [latex] 54,872 [/latex]? Solution: Compare thousands: 4,000 vs 4,000 → equal. Compare hundreds: 2 hundred vs 8 hundred → [latex] 54,872 [/latex] is greater. Example 11: Arrange in ascending order: [latex] 8.307, , 8.37, , 8.3075 [/latex]. Solution: Compare tenths → all are 3 → equal. Compare hundredths → 0, 7, 0 → smallest is [latex] 8.307 [/latex]. Compare thousandths → 7, (no digit), 7 → [latex] 8.3075 [/latex] comes after [latex] 8.307 [/latex]. Final order: [latex] 8.307 < 8.3075 < 8.37 [/latex]. Example 12: Find the largest among [latex] 12,405; , 12,054; , 12,540 [/latex]. Solution: Compare thousands → equal (12,000). Compare hundreds → 4, 0, 5 → largest is 5 → [latex] 12,540 [/latex]. Exercises (Comparing and Ordering) Arrange in descending order: [latex] 45.62, , 45.602, , 45.26 [/latex]. Which is smaller: [latex] 34,089 [/latex] or [latex] 34,809 [/latex]? Applications and Mixed Problems Example 13: A company produced [latex] 45,078 [/latex] items in January and [latex] 45,708 [/latex] items in February. Which month had more production and by how much? Solution: February production is greater because 7 hundred > 0 hundred. Difference = [latex] 45,708 - 45,078 = 630 [/latex]. Example 14: Express the population of a town (given as [latex] 123,405 [/latex]) in expanded form and state the place value of 2. Solution: Expanded form: [latex] 100,000 + 20,000 + 3,000 + 400 + 5 [/latex]. Place value of 2 = [latex] 20,000 [/latex]. Example 15: Compare [latex] 56.307 [/latex] and [latex] 56.37 [/latex]. Solution: Tenths → equal. Hundredths → 0 vs 7 → [latex] 56.37 [/latex] is greater. Exercises (Applications) A factory produces [latex] 9,508 [/latex] toys in one month and [latex] 9,850 [/latex] in another. Which is larger and by how much? Arrange in ascending order: [latex] 125.307, , 125.73, , 125.037 [/latex]. Cumulative Exercises Find the place value of 6 in [latex] 768,459 [/latex]. Expand [latex] 4,302.508 [/latex]. Which digit contributes more value in [latex] 35.407 [/latex] — 4 or 7? Arrange in descending order: [latex] 9,085; , 9,580; , 9,508 [/latex]. State the value of 2 in [latex] 0.0247 [/latex]. Which is greater: [latex] 57.092 [/latex] or [latex] 57.29 [/latex]? Write [latex] 50,009 [/latex] in expanded form. A machine produces [latex] 15,084 [/latex] items in January and [latex] 15,048 [/latex] in February. Which month had more production? Compare [latex] 245.709 [/latex] and [latex] 245.79 [/latex]. State the place value and face value of 9 in [latex] 9,205.46 [/latex]. Conclusion/Recap Place value gives meaning to digits in numbers.
