What a question looks like
Example questionWhat is the value of the 7 in the tens place of 26,279?
Answer: 70
- The tens place is worth 10 per unit.
- 7 × 10 = 70.
Use this practice well
Have learners name the place first, then multiply the digit by its place value. Compare nearby digits in the same number to make clear why position changes value.
What this develops
Practise the value of a digit in whole numbers at several levels.
A mistake to watch for
Giving the digit itself instead of its value misses the difference between 7 and 700.
Ways to use it
- Introduce expanded form.
- Check understanding after a place-value lesson.
- Discuss a zero used as a placeholder.
