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)

One hundred twenty-five ten-thousandths is written in numbers as 0.0125. This is derived by placing the number 125 in the ten-thousandths place, which corresponds to the fourth decimal place.
Thirty thousandths is written in numbers as 0.030. This representation indicates that there are thirty parts out of a thousand, with two digits to the right of the decimal point representing the thousandths place.
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)

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
Forty nine thousandths in decimal form is written as 0.049. This is because the decimal point separates the whole number part (0) from the fractional part (0.049). The digit 4 is in the hundredths place, and the digit 9 is in the thousandths place, representing a value of 49 thousandths.
