In the decimal number system, the largest digit that can be used in each place value is 9. Place values increase by a power of 10 as you move from right to left, so the ones place can hold digits 0-9, the tens place can hold digits 0-9, and so on. The largest digit in each place value represents the highest value that can be assigned to that position in a number.
