CONTENT OF THE LESSON

LESSON 1 – INTRODUCTION 

ACTIVITY 1 

In math, every digit in a number has a value and place value.

Place value is the place of a digit in a number on the basis of its position in the number.

For example,

The value and place value each of digit in 8 697 243 is expressed as –

From the rightmost position,

3 – 3 Unit s

40 – 4 Tens

200 – 2 Hundreds

7 000 – 7 Thousands

90 000 – 9 Ten thousands

600 000 – 6 Hundred thousands

8 000 000 – 8 Millions

_____________

8 697 243 – 8 millions 6 hundred thousands 9 Ten thousands 7 thousands 2 hundreds 3 units

• The place value of 8 is millions, value = 8 000 000

• The place value of 6 is millions, value =    600 000

• The place value of 9 is millions, value =      90 000

• The place value of 7 is millions, value =        7 000

• The place value of 7 is millions, value =           200

• The place value of 4 is millions, value =             40

• The place value of 3 is millions, value =               3

_____________

8 697 243

Note – The position of each digit determine their value and place value.

For example,

From the rightmost position,

1st position – Unit

2nd position – Ten

3rd position – Hundred

4th position – Thousand

5th position – Ten thousand

6th position – Hundred thousand

7th position – Million

8th position – Ten million

9th position – Hundred million

10th position – Trillion

ACTIVITY 2 – FURTHER EXAMPLES 

Find the value and place 5 in the following –

1.  6 117 582

The position of 5 in 6 117 582 is 3rd position.

The value is 300 and place value is hundred.

2. 7 951 117

The position of 5 in 7 951 117 5th position.

The value is 50 000 and place value is Ten thousand.

WORKING EXERCISE 

Find the value and place value of

1. 7 in 6 117 582

2. 9 in 7 951 117

3. 1 in 7 951 017

 

LESSON 2 – FURTHER ILLUSTRATIONS

1 = __________ and __________

8 = __________ and __________

3 = __________ and __________

9 = __________ and __________

7 = __________ and __________

6 = __________ and __________

4 = __________ and __________

1 = __________ and __________

5 = __________ and __________

2 = __________ and __________

SOLUTIONS

1 = 1 land unit

8 = 80 and Ten

3 = 300 and Hundred

9 = 9 000 and Thousand

7 = 70 000 and Ten thousand

6 = 600 000 and Hundred thousand

4 = 4 000 000 and Million

1 = 10 000 000 and Ten million

5 = 500 000 000  and Hundred million

2 = 2 000 000 000 and Trillion

ACTIVITY 2 – WORKING EXERCISE 

Copy and complete the following –

1. 8 422 029 167

The place value of 0 is 0 ____, its value = ____

2. 3 998 631 156

The place value of 9 is 9 ____, its value = ___

3. 5 3902 712 048

The place value of 5 is 5 ____, its value = ____

LESSON 3 – VALUE AND PLACE VALUE OF DECIMALS

ACTIVITY 1 – INTRODUCTION 

If a number has a decimal point, the first digit to the right of the decimal point is tenths.

The next digit after the decimal represents the hundredths place.

The remaining digits continue to fill in the place values until there are no digits left.

For example,

6.11758 is expressed in expandable form as

6 + 1/10 + 1/100 + 7/1 000 + 5/10 000 + 8/100 000

That’s,

6 + 0.1 + 0.01 + 0.007 + 0.0005 + 0.00008

Therefore,

6 + 1 tenth + 1 hundredth + 7 thousandth + 5 ten thousandth + 8 hundred thousandth

ACTIVITY 2 – WORKING EXERCISES 

Write these decimals in expanded form.

1. 4.651

2. 0.234

3. 2.134

LESSON 4 – FURTHER ILLUSTRATIONS

ACTIVITY 1 

Find the place value and value of

1. 4 in 5.234

5.234 = 5 + 2/10 + 3/100 + 4/1 000

Place of 4 is thousandth, its value is 0.004

 

2. 1 in 2.187

2 + 1/10 + 8/100 + 7/1 000

Place of 1 is tenth, its value is 0.10

3. 5 in 1.453

1 + 1/10 + 5/100 + 3/1 000

Place of 5 is hundredth, its value is 0.05

ACTIVITY 2 

Find the place value and value of

1. 3 in 4.635

2. 9 in 0.938
