<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Place value and total value </h3>
- Place value refers to the value represented by a digit in a number based of its position in the number. Place values can be ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, etc
<h3>For example;</h3>
In the number; 24,621 the place value of the digits in the number are;
Ones -1
Tens - 2
Hundreds - 6
Thousands - 4
Ten Thousands – 2
<h3>Total value </h3>
- Total value is given as the product of the digit and its place value.
- For example; in the number, 24,621
- Total value of digits 2,4,6,2 and 8 in the number 24,621 will be;
2 x 10,000 = 20,000
4 x 1000 = 4,000
6 x 100 = 600
2 x 10 = 20
1 x 1 = 1
The sum of the total values of digits in a number will be equivalent to the value of that number.
Therefore; we would say that;
Ten times as 8 hundreds is 8 thousands, that is, the value of 8,000 is ten times the value of 800
