Place Value - Thousands, Hundreds, Tens and Units - Free Printable

Let’s go through each problem step by step. We’re looking at the underlined digit in each number and writing its value — that means, what that digit is worth based on its place (like tens, hundreds, thousands, etc.).

We’ll use the place value chart from the top of the page to help:

- 1 = one
- 10 = ten
- 100 = one hundred
- 1,000 = one thousand
- 10,000 = ten thousand
- 100,000 = one hundred thousand
- 1,000,000 = one million
- 10,000,000 = ten million

Now let’s solve each part:

---

a) 6837 → underlined is 3

The 3 is in the tens place → so it’s worth thirty

✔ Already given as example: “thirty”

---

b) 9245 → underlined is 2

Look at the places:
9 (thousands), 2 (hundreds), 4 (tens), 5 (ones)

So 2 is in the hundreds place → 2 × 100 = two hundred

---

c) 30,200 → underlined is 2

Break it down:
3 (ten thousands), 0 (thousands), 2 (hundreds), 0 (tens), 0 (ones)

Wait — actually, let’s write it with commas for clarity: 30,200

That’s:
3 → ten thousands
0 → thousands
2 → hundreds
0 → tens
0 → ones

So 2 is in the hundreds place → 2 × 100 = two hundred

But wait — look again! The number is written as 30,200, and the underline is under the 2 — which is in the hundreds place? Let me double-check.

Actually, 30,200:

Digits: 3 - 0 - 2 - 0 - 0
Places: Ten Thousands - Thousands - Hundreds - Tens - Ones

Yes — 2 is in the hundreds place → two hundred

BUT — hold on! In some notations, especially in larger numbers, we might misread. Let me count from right:

Rightmost digit: ones
Then tens
Then hundreds
Then thousands
Then ten thousands

So for 30,200:

Position from right:
- 0 → ones
- 0 → tens
- 2 → hundreds ← this is the underlined digit
- 0 → thousands
- 3 → ten thousands

Yes — still hundreds → two hundred

Wait — but let me check the original image again mentally — sometimes the underline might be on a different digit. But according to your text: “c) 30,200” and underlined is 2 — yes, hundreds.

But I think I made a mistake here — let me re-express 30,200:

It’s thirty thousand, two hundred.

So the “2” is in the hundreds place → value = two hundred

Okay, moving on.

d) 85,302 → underlined is 5

Number: 85,302

Breakdown:
8 → ten thousands
5 → thousands ← underlined
3 → hundreds
0 → tens
2 → ones

So 5 is in the thousands place → 5 × 1,000 = five thousand

---

e) 51,222 → underlined is 1

Number: 51,222

Digits:
5 → ten thousands
1 → thousands ← underlined
2 → hundreds
2 → tens
2 → ones

So 1 is in the thousands place → 1 × 1,000 = one thousand

---

f) 240,920 → underlined is 2 (first digit)

Number: 240,920

Let’s break it down:

From left:
2 → hundred thousands ← underlined
4 → ten thousands
0 → thousands
9 → hundreds
2 → tens
0 → ones

So 2 is in the hundred thousands place → 2 × 100,000 = two hundred thousand

---

g) 321,296 → underlined is 2 (second digit)

Number: 321,296

Digits:
3 → hundred thousands
2 → ten thousands ← underlined
1 → thousands
2 → hundreds
9 → tens
6 → ones

So 2 is in the ten thousands place → 2 × 10,000 = twenty thousand

---

h) 780,848 → underlined is 7

Number: 780,848

Digits:
7 → hundred thousands ← underlined
8 → ten thousands
0 → thousands
8 → hundreds
4 → tens
8 → ones

So 7 is in the hundred thousands place → 7 × 100,000 = seven hundred thousand

---

i) 982,132 → underlined is 1

Number: 982,132

Digits:
9 → hundred thousands
8 → ten thousands
2 → thousands
1 → hundreds ← underlined
3 → tens
2 → ones

So 1 is in the hundreds place → 1 × 100 = one hundred

---

j) 5,437,200 → underlined is 5

Number: 5,437,200

This is over a million.

Break it down:

5 → millions ← underlined
4 → hundred thousands
3 → ten thousands
7 → thousands
2 → hundreds
0 → tens
0 → ones

So 5 is in the millions place → 5 × 1,000,000 = five million
