🔍 Understanding the Task
The instruction is:
👉
"Underline the digit" — but it doesn’t specify *which* digit to underline. However, looking at the format:
- Each problem gives a number and asks to
underline the digit in a certain place value (e.g., "the digit in the thousands place", "the digit in the hundredths place").
- For example:
> Underline the digit in the
hundredths place: 45.321
In that case, you'd look at the decimal part:
- Tenths: 3
- Hundredths: 2 → so
underline the 2

✔ How to Solve These Problems
Let’s go through a few examples from your worksheet (based on common patterns):
---
####
Example 1:
> Underline the digit in the
thousands place: 756,318
Break down the number:

- Place values from right to left:
- Units: 8
- Tens: 1
- Hundreds: 3
-
Thousands: 6
- Ten thousands: 5

####
Example 3:
> Underline the digit in the
ten-thousands place: 401,395
Break down:
- 401,395
- Ten-thousands place is the
4 (since 4 × 10,000 = 40,000)
✔ Underline the
4

####
Example 4:
> Underline the digit in the
tenths place: 5.2
- Tenths place is the first digit after the decimal →
2
