Step-by-step solution for: Write the Place Value of Underlined Digits - Math Worksheets ...
Let’s go step by step to find the place value of each underlined digit.
Place value means: what is the value of that digit based on its position in the number?
For example, in 543, the “5” is in the hundreds place → so its place value is 500.
We’ll look at each number and figure out where the underlined digit sits — ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, etc.

First row:
1. 638,276 → underlined digit is 8
Let’s break it down from right to left:
- 6 → ones
- 7 → tens
- 2 → hundreds
- 8 → thousands ← this is our digit!
So place value = 8 × 1,000 = 8,000
2. 777,777 → underlined digit is 7 (the first one from left)
That’s the hundred thousands place → 7 × 100,000 = 700,000
3. 802,143 → underlined digit is 8
It’s in the hundred thousands place → 8 × 100,000 = 800,000
4. 452,291 → underlined digit is 1
Rightmost digit → ones place → 1 × 1 = 1
---
Second row:
5. 131,039 → underlined digit is 0
From right: 9 (ones), 3 (tens), 0 (hundreds) → hundreds place → 0 × 100 = 0
6. 49,202 → underlined digit is 2 (first 2 from left)
Breakdown: 2 (ones), 0 (tens), 2 (hundreds) → wait, let’s write positions:
Number: 4 9 , 2 0 2
Positions: ten-thousands, thousands, hundreds, tens, ones
So the underlined 2 is in hundreds → 2 × 100 = 200
7. 19,457 → underlined digit is 1
Leftmost digit → ten thousands place → 1 × 10,000 = 10,000
8. 473,992 → underlined digit is 3
Breakdown: 2 (ones), 9 (tens), 9 (hundreds), 3 (thousands) → thousands → 3 × 1,000 = 3,000
---
Third row:
9. 586,102 → underlined digit is 5
Hundred thousands place → 5 × 100,000 = 500,000
10. 749,200 → underlined digit is 9
Breakdown: 0 (ones), 0 (tens), 2 (hundreds), 9 (thousands) → thousands → 9 × 1,000 = 9,000
11. 184,832 → underlined digit is 3
From right: 2 (ones), 3 (tens) → tens → 3 × 10 = 30
12. 742,225 → underlined digit is 5
Ones place → 5 × 1 = 5
---
Fourth row:
13. 821,463 → underlined digit is 3
Ones place → 3
14. 920,024 → underlined digit is 2 (first 2 from left)
Breakdown: 4 (ones), 2 (tens), 0 (hundreds), 0 (thousands), 2 (ten thousands) → ten thousands → 2 × 10,000 = 20,000
15. 518,256 → underlined digit is 5 (second 5 from left)
Breakdown: 6 (ones), 5 (tens) → tens → 5 × 10 = 50
16. 465,732 → underlined digit is 4
Hundred thousands → 4 × 100,000 = 400,000
---
Fifth row:
17. 311,483 → underlined digit is 3 (last digit)
Ones place → 3
18. 78,392 → underlined digit is 8
Breakdown: 2 (ones), 9 (tens), 3 (hundreds), 8 (thousands) → thousands → 8 × 1,000 = 8,000
19. 435,531 → underlined digit is 5 (middle 5)
Breakdown: 1 (ones), 3 (tens), 5 (hundreds) → hundreds → 5 × 100 = 500
20. 674,924 → underlined digit is 4 (last digit)
Ones place → 4
