๐ Topic Summary
Place value is all about understanding the value of each digit in a number based on its position. When we look at place value patterns, we're spotting how the value of a digit changes as it moves from one place (like ones, tens, hundreds) to another. Understanding these patterns makes it much easier to work with large numbers and perform operations like multiplication and division. These patterns often involve multiplying or dividing by powers of ten, such as 10, 100, or 1000.
This activity sheet will help you recognize and work with these place value patterns. Have fun!
