Let's solve the
"Writing Place Value of Numbers" worksheet step by step.

🔢 Understanding Place Value
In a 3-digit number:
- The
leftmost digit is the
hundreds place.
- The
middle digit is the
tens place.
- The
rightmost digit is the
ones place.
We will break down each number into its hundreds, tens, and ones components.

✔ 1. Number: 145
*(Already solved as an example)*
- Hundreds:
1
- Tens:
4
- Ones:
5
✔ This means:
1 × 100 = 100
4 × 10 = 40
5 × 1 = 5
Total = 100 + 40 + 5 =
145
✔️ Representation shown with:
- 1 full hundred square (10×10 grid)
- 4 vertical ten-strips (each has 10 units)
- 5 single unit squares

🟦 2. Number: 101
Break it down:
- Hundreds:
1 → 1 × 100 = 100
- Tens:
0 → 0 × 10 = 0
- Ones:
1 → 1 × 1 = 1
So:
- Hundreds:
1
- Tens:
0
- Ones:
1
#### 🔧 How to draw it:
- Draw
1 hundred square (10×10 grid).
- Draw
0 tens (no strips).
- Draw
1 single unit (one small square).
> 💡 Tip: Even though tens is zero, you still write "0" in the tens box.

🟦 3. Number: 143
Break it down:
- Hundreds:
1 → 1 × 100 = 100
- Tens:
4 → 4 × 10 = 40
- Ones:
3 → 3 × 1 = 3
So:
- Hundreds:
1
- Tens:
4
- Ones:
3
#### 🔧 How to draw it:
- Draw
1 hundred square.
- Draw
4 ten-strips (vertical bars of 10 units).
- Draw
3 single unit squares.
---
🟦 4. Number: 126
Break it down:
- Hundreds:
1 → 1 × 100 = 100
- Tens:
2 → 2 × 10 = 20
- Ones:
6 → 6 × 1 = 6
So:
- Hundreds:
1
- Tens:
2
- Ones:
6
#### 🔧 How to draw it:
- Draw
1 hundred square.
- Draw
2 ten-strips.
- Draw
6 single unit squares.

✔ Final Answers:
| Number | Hundreds | Tens | Ones |
|--------|----------|------|------|
| 145 | 1 | 4 | 5 |
| 101 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 143 | 1 | 4 | 3 |
| 126 | 1 | 2 | 6 |

🎯 Drawing Instructions (for each number):
1.
For 101:
- Draw one 10×10 square (hundred).
- No tens strips.
- One single dot or square (one unit).
2.
For 143:
- One 10×10 square.
- Four vertical ten-strips.
- Three small dots/squares.
3.
For 126:
- One 10×10 square.
- Two vertical ten-strips.
- Six small dots/squares.

✔ Summary
You’ve now broken down all numbers into their
place values, and can represent them visually using:
-
Hundred blocks (10×10 grids),
-
Ten rods (vertical lines of 10),
-
Units (single squares).
This helps understand how numbers are built from base-10 components!
