Each digit in a multi-digit number holds a distinct value depending on whether it is in the ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, or higher positional places. The significance of place value lies in its role in performing arithmetic operations, understanding number magnitude, and solving complex numerical problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the number <strong>48,725<\/strong>, the digit <strong>7<\/strong> is in the hundreds place. Since the hundreds place represents the third position from the right, the digit <strong>7<\/strong> holds a value of <strong>700<\/strong>, obtained by multiplying <strong>7 \u00d7 100<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the number <strong>496,634<\/strong>, the digit <strong>9<\/strong> is in the ten-thousands place. This position indicates a value of <strong>90,000<\/strong>, derived from <strong>9 \u00d7 10,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the number <strong>902,876<\/strong>, the digit <strong>2<\/strong> is in the thousands place. Since thousands are the fourth positional tier in a five-digit number, its place value is <strong>2,000<\/strong>, calculated as <strong>2 \u00d7 1,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recognizing place value enhances numerical fluency and strengthens problem-solving skills, particularly in rounding, addition, subtraction, and estimation. The concept is crucial for developing advanced mathematical understanding and is widely applied in engineering, scientific calculations, and financial analysis. Mastery of place value enables efficient computation and reinforces the structured representation of numbers across various disciplines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/learnexams-banner10-228.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-237113\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Give the place value of the underlined digit.
