Remember that the thousandths place is behind the zero. The thousandths place or any place value is the same no matter how big the number is.
Think of the decimal as the O in ones place
(hint: think of this only when you are trying to find the place value of numbers behind the decimal)
Example:
.123456789
So the decimal stand for ones
The 2 stands for tenths
3 is for hundredths
4 is for thousandths
5 stands for ten thousandths
6 place value hundred thousandths
7's place value is millionths
(hope this helps)

The 8 is in the hundreds As for the other numbers... 5- tens place 1- ones place 7-tenth place 6-hundredth place 0- thousandths place 9-ten thousandths place
The thousandths place digit is the third digit to the right of the decimal point.Look at the digit to the right of that one (the ten thousandths place).If that digit is 0-4, then the thousandths digit doesn't change.If that digit is 5-9, then add 1 to the thousandths place digit and carry over the rest of the addition if the thousandths digit is a 9.Truncate at the thousandths place (discard all digits to the right of it)
Six and twelve thousandths in numbers = 6.012
Eighty-nine hundred-thousandths in numbers = 0.00089

Go to the thousandths place or smaller. There is plenty of room.
the hundred thousandths place
To write sixty thousandths, you would write it as 0.060. The zero before the decimal point indicates there are no whole numbers, and the six in the hundredths place represents 60 hundredths. The final zero is added as a placeholder to indicate the thousandths place.
Eighty-nine hundred-thousandths in numbers = 0.00089
the thousandths place of 3.25 is 0
eight is in the thousandths place * * * * * No. It is the 7.
0.846 in the thousandths place is 6.
