What is the difference between a place value and value of a digit?
The value of a digit: In 12,345 , the value of the digit 5 is 5 and the value of the digit 1 is 10,000. Place value: In 13,563 ,the place value of the digit 3 is thousands and the place value of the digit 6 is tens. The value of a digit is its value, as in 0-9 The place value of a digit is its value multiplied by its place (column) value which is dependant upon where it is in the number. In the units column, the place value is 1 In the tens column, it is 10 in the hundreds column it is 100 in the tenths column it is 1/10 So in 123.4: The digit 1 has value 1, but place value 1 x 100 = 100 (one hundred) since it is in the hundreds column The digit 2 has value 2, but place value 2 x 10 = 20 (twenty) since it is in the tens column The digit 3 has value 3, but place value 3 x 1 = 3 (three) since it is in the units column - in this case (only), its value and place value are the same. The digit 4 has value 4, but place value 4 x 1/10 = 4/10 (four tenths) since it is in the tenths column.
What Decmial Place Value mean?
It means that depending on its position, a digit will have a "multiplier value" that will make it worth more or less. In the number "123", the place-value of the digit 3 is 1, the place-value of digit 2 is 10, and the left-most place-value - for the digit 1 - is 100. In other words, the mere fact that there are other numbers to the right of the "1" make it worth more.
