Decimal Place Value worksheet for practicing identifying place values in monetary amounts.

Let’s go through each problem step by step.

We are asked to find the place value of the underlined digit in each number, and write the answer with a $ sign or cent(s) sign (¢).

Remember:
- Digits to the left of the decimal point are dollars: ones, tens, hundreds, etc.
- Digits to the right of the decimal point are cents: tenths (dimes), hundredths (pennies).

So:
- .1 = 10 cents → 10¢
- .01 = 1 cent → 1¢
- .001 = 0.1 cent → not used here since we’re dealing with money up to hundredths

Actually, for money:
- The first digit after decimal = dimes (tenths of a dollar) → 10¢ per unit
- The second digit after decimal = pennies (hundredths of a dollar) → 1¢ per unit

But the question asks for the place value of the underlined digit — meaning, what is that digit worth? So if the digit is 5 in the hundredths place, it’s worth 5 cents → 5¢.

Let’s solve each:

---

1) $27.65 → 5 is in the hundredths place → 5 cents → 5¢

2) $365.24 → 2 is in the tenths place → 2 dimes → 20 cents → 20¢

3) $15.25 → 2 is in the tenths place → 20 cents → 20¢

4) $254.05 → 5 is in the hundredths place → 5 cents → 5¢

5) $25.36 → 3 is in the tenths place → 30 cents → 30¢

6) $78.36 → 3 is in the tenths place → 30 cents → 30¢

7) $457.65 → 5 is in the hundredths place → 5 cents → 5¢

8) $36.27 → 2 is in the tenths place → 20 cents → 20¢

9) $2.36 → 3 is in the tenths place → 30 cents → 30¢

10) $45.37 → 3 is in the tenths place → 30 cents → 30¢

11) $714.05 → 5 is in the hundredths place → 5 cents → 5¢

12) $24.36 → 3 is in the tenths place → 30 cents → 30¢

13) $258.68 → 8 is in the hundredths place → 8 cents → 8¢

14) $472.36 → 3 is in the tenths place → 30 cents → 30¢

15) $25.47 → 4 is in the tenths place → 40 cents → 40¢

16) $368.69 → 9 is in the hundredths place → 9 cents → 9¢

17) $125.07 → 7 is in the hundredths place → 7 cents → 7¢

18) $24.49 → 4 is in the tenths place → 40 cents → 40¢

19) $36.78 → 7 is in the tenths place → 70 cents → 70¢

20) $127.36 → 3 is in the tenths place → 30 cents → 30¢

21) $25.69 → 6 is in the tenths place → 60 cents → 60¢

22) $41.82 → 8 is in the tenths place → 80 cents → 80¢

23) $332.69 → 6 is in the tenths place → 60 cents → 60¢

24) $47.25 → 2 is in the tenths place → 20 cents → 20¢
