Understanding Place Value: Tens and Ones (Lesson)
In a two‑digit number, the first digit shows the number of tens, and the second digit shows the number of ones.
Example: 20 + 3:
- The 2 represents 2 tens, which is 20
- The 3 represents 3 ones, which is 3
When we put them together, we get:
20 + 3 = 23
