Place Value Basics: Writing Numbers Using Hundreds, Tens, and Ones (Lesson)
When you look at a three‑digit number, each digit has a special job. The first digit tells you how many hundreds there are, the second digit shows the number of tens, and the last digit shows the number of ones. Using this information, you can rewrite the number in expanded form.
Example: Write 485 in expanded form.
The 4 represents 4 hundreds, which is 400
The 8 represents 8 tens, which is 80
The 5 represents 5 ones, which is 5
Putting these parts together, we can write:
485 = 400 + 80 + 5
