Let's solve the problem step by step.
🔍 Task:
Identify the
place value of the
underlined digit in each number.
In a two-digit number:
- The
rightmost digit is the
ones place.
- The
leftmost digit is the
tens place.
So, for example:
- In
23, if the
2 is underlined → it’s in the
tens place, so its value is
20.
- If the
3 is underlined → it’s in the
ones place, so its value is
3.
But in this worksheet,
only one digit is underlined per number, and from the way it's formatted (e.g., 23 with underline under "2"), we can assume the
underlined digit is the tens digit — because the underline is beneath the first digit.
Let’s go through each number:
---
✔ Left Column:
1.
23 → Underline under
2 → Tens place →
20
2.
71 → Underline under
7 → Tens place →
70
3.
30 → Underline under
3 → Tens place →
30
4.
19 → Underline under
1 → Tens place →
10
5.
83 → Underline under
8 → Tens place →
80
6.
26 → Underline under
2 → Tens place →
20
7.
37 → Underline under
3 → Tens place →
30
8.
53 → Underline under
5 → Tens place →
50
9.
60 → Underline under
6 → Tens place →
60

✔ Right Column:
1.
69 → Underline under
6 → Tens place →
60
2.
44 → Underline under
4 → Tens place →

💡 Explanation:
The
place value tells us how much the digit is worth based on its position.
- In
two-digit numbers, the left digit is always in the
tens place, so its value is the digit × 10.
- For example, in
44, the underlined
4 is in the tens place →
4 × 10 = 40.
✔ All answers are based on the
tens place since the underlined digit is always the
first digit (leftmost).
