Let’s work through each problem step by step.

Problem 1:
We have a place value grid with stars in each column:
-
1000s: 2 stars → that’s 2000
-
100s: 3 stars → that’s 300
-
10s: 4 stars → that’s 40
-
1s: 6 stars → that’s 6
Add them up:
2000 + 300 = 2300
2300 + 40 = 2340
2340 + 6 =
2346
So the number is
2346.
In words: *two thousand three hundred forty-six*
Now, what is
10 more than 2346?
2346 + 10 =
2356
✔ Check: Adding 10 only changes the tens digit — from 4 to 5 → 2356. Correct.

Problem 2:
Place value grid:
-
1000s: 5 stars → 5000
-
100s: 0 stars → 0
-
10s: 2 stars → 20
-
1s: 7 stars → 7
Add them:
5000 + 0 = 5000
5000 + 20 = 5020
5020 + 7 =
5027
Number:
5027
In words: *five thousand twenty-seven*
What is
10 more?
5027 + 10 =
5037
✔ Check: Tens digit goes from 2 to 3 → 5037. Correct.

Problem 3:
Place value grid:
-
1000s: 3 stars → 3000
-
100s: 4 stars → 400
-
10s: 0 stars → 0
-
1s: 8 stars → 8
Add them:
3000 + 400 = 3400
3400 + 0 = 3400
3400 + 8 =
3408
Number:
3408
In words: *three thousand four hundred eight*
What is
10 more?
3408 + 10 =
3418
✔ Check: Tens digit was 0, now becomes 1 → 3418. Correct.
