🔹 Objective:


Determine the place value of the underlined digit in each number.
(Note: In your description, no digits are actually underlined, but we can assume that in the original image, one digit in each number is underlined.)

Let’s go through each problem and determine the place value of the underlined digit — assuming the underline is on a specific digit (e.g., 2 in 20.67 might be underlined). Since the actual underlining isn't visible here, I’ll analyze each number with common patterns and give possible place values.

But since you mentioned "the underlined digit," and the example shows:
- In 25.43, the digit 2 is said to have a value of 20 or 2 tens.
- The digit 5 is 5 ones.
- The digit 4 is 0.4 or 4 tenths.
- The digit 3 is 0.03 or 3 hundredths.

So we use the same logic:

| Digit | Position | Place Value |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| Before decimal point | Units, Tens, Hundreds, etc. | Whole numbers |
| After decimal point | Tenths, Hundredths, Thousandths | Decimal fractions |

Let’s go through each number and assume the underlined digit is the one that makes sense for a typical exercise.

We’ll analyze each:

Solutions:



1) 20.67
- Assume 0 is underlined → it's in the ones place → 0 ones
- Or if 2 is underlined → 2 tens = 20
- But likely 6 or 7 is underlined? Let's suppose 6 is underlined → 6 tenths = 0.6

Answer: 0.6 or 6 tenths

2) 23.47
- If 3 is underlined → 3 ones = 3
- If 4 is underlined → 4 tenths = 0.4
- If 7 is underlined → 7 hundredths = 0.07

→ Likely 4 is underlined → 0.4 or 4 tenths

3) 88.03
- If 0 is underlined → 0 tenths = 0.0
- If 3 is underlined → 3 hundredths = 0.03

→ Likely 3 is underlined → 0.03 or 3 hundredths

4) 312.27
- If 2 (after decimal) is underlined → 2 tenths = 0.2
- If 2 (before decimal) → could be 2 tens = 20
- But probably 2 in .270.2 or 2 tenths

→ Answer: 0.2 or 2 tenths

5) 397.29
- If 2 is underlined → 2 tenths = 0.2

0.2 or 2 tenths

6) 5234.8
- If 8 is underlined → 8 tenths = 0.8

0.8 or 8 tenths

7) 47.96
- If 9 is underlined → 9 tenths = 0.9

0.9 or 9 tenths

8) 3.36
- If 3 after decimal is underlined → 3 tenths = 0.3

0.3 or 3 tenths

9) 278.35
- If 3 is underlined → 3 tenths = 0.3

0.3 or 3 tenths

10) 478.36
- If 3 is underlined → 3 tenths = 0.3

0.3 or 3 tenths

11) 2.36
- If 3 is underlined → 3 tenths = 0.3

0.3 or 3 tenths

12) 74.25
- If 2 is underlined → 2 tenths = 0.2

0.2 or 2 tenths

13) 43.27
- If 2 is underlined → 2 tenths = 0.2

0.2 or 2 tenths

14) 3205.4
- If 4 is underlined → 4 tenths = 0.4

0.4 or 4 tenths

15) 36.47
- If 4 is underlined → 4 tenths = 0.4

0.4 or 4 tenths

16) 25.78
- If 7 is underlined → 7 tenths = 0.7

0.7 or 7 tenths

17) 147.38
- If 3 is underlined → 3 tenths = 0.3

0.3 or 3 tenths

18) 36.25
- If 2 is underlined → 2 tenths = 0.2

0.2 or 2 tenths

19) 4782.5
- If 5 is underlined → 5 tenths = 0.5

0.5 or 5 tenths

20) 69.32
- If 3 is underlined → 3 tenths = 0.3

0.3 or 3 tenths

🧠 Pattern Recognition:


In most of these problems, the underlined digit is after the decimal point, usually in the tenths or hundredths place.

So, here's a general rule:

- Tenths place: 1st digit after decimal → value = digit × 0.1
- Hundredths place: 2nd digit after decimal → value = digit × 0.01

Final Answers (Assuming Underlined Digits Are as Follows):



| # | Number | Underlined Digit | Place Value |
|---|------------|------------------|-------------------------|
| 1 | 20.67 | 6 | 0.6 or 6 tenths |
| 2 | 23.47 | 4 | 0.4 or 4 tenths |
| 3 | 88.03 | 3 | 0.03 or 3 hundredths |
| 4 | 312.27 | 2 | 0.2 or 2 tenths |
| 5 | 397.29 | 2 | 0.2 or 2 tenths |
| 6 | 5234.8 | 8 | 0.8 or 8 tenths |
| 7 | 47.96 | 9 | 0.9 or 9 tenths |
| 8 | 3.36 | 3 | 0.3 or 3 tenths |
| 9 | 278.35 | 3 | 0.3 or 3 tenths |
|10 | 478.36 | 3 | 0.3 or 3 tenths |
|11 | 2.36 | 3 | 0.3 or 3 tenths |
|12 | 74.25 | 2 | 0.2 or 2 tenths |
|13 | 43.27 | 2 | 0.2 or 2 tenths |
|14 | 3205.4 | 4 | 0.4 or 4 tenths |
|15 | 36.47 | 4 | 0.4 or 4 tenths |
|16 | 25.78 | 7 | 0.7 or 7 tenths |
|17 | 147.38 | 3 | 0.3 or 3 tenths |
|18 | 36.25 | 2 | 0.2 or 2 tenths |
|19 | 4782.5 | 5 | 0.5 or 5 tenths |
|20 | 69.32 | 3 | 0.3 or 3 tenths |

> ⚠️ Note: If in the original image, the underlined digit is different (e.g., a whole number digit), the answer would change accordingly. For example, if 8 is underlined in 88.03, then it's 8 tens = 80.

How to Check:


Look at the position of the underlined digit:
- Before decimal:
- 1st digit from right → ones
- 2nd → tens
- 3rd → hundreds
- After decimal:
- 1st → tenths (×0.1)
- 2nd → hundredths (×0.01)

---

Example:


In 25.43, if 4 is underlined:
- It’s in the tenths place → 4 × 0.1 = 0.44 tenths

---

If you can tell me which digits are underlined in the original image, I can give exact answers.

Otherwise, the above table assumes the underlined digit is the first digit after the decimal point (most common in such worksheets).
