 Knowing the place value of a given digit, this chart shows the names of the different place values that are used most often. For example, in the number 786, the 6 is in the 1's place, and has a value of 6 1's. The 8 is in the 10's place, and has a value of 8 10's. And the 7 is in the 100's place, and has a value of 700's.
