 What is Place Value?
 Place value tells us the value of each digit in a number based
on its position. Imagine place value as a map that helps you
know exactly how big or small a number is.
 Example:
 In the number 345,
 each digit has a specific value:
 The 3 is in the hundreds place, so it means 300.
 The 4 is in the tens place, so it means 40.
 The 5 is in the ones place, so it means 5.
 When you put these values together, you get 300 + 40 + 5 =
345.
 Why is Place Value Important?
 Think about money! If someone offers you $30 or $300, which one is
more?
 The place value of the 3 changes everything! In $30, the 3 is in the tens
place. In $300, the 3 is in the hundreds place. So, $300 is 10 times
bigger than $30.
Real-Life Example:
 Shopping - Let’s say you're at the store, and you see two price tags:
 One says $4.50 (four dollars and fifty cents).
 Another says $45.00 (forty-five dollars).
 At a quick glance, both prices have a 4 and a 5, but their place values
are different.
 In $4.50, the 4 is in the ones place, and the 5 is in the tenths place
(showing cents).
 In $45.00, the 4 is in the tens place, and the 5 is in the ones place.
 Clearly, $45.00 is much more expensive than $4.50!
 Where Do We See Decimal Numbers?
 Decimal numbers are everywhere! Some examples you can talk about
include:
 Money: Prices like $1.25 or $3.99.
 Measurements: A juice bottle may have 1.5 liters written on it.
 Sports: Scores or timings like 9.85 seconds in a race.
 Shopping: Discounts like 25.5% off.
 Math Class: Fractions written as decimals, like 0.5 instead of 1/2.
 Where have you seen decimal numbers recently?

 Can you think of a situation where knowing the place value is
helpful?
1.1 Understanding
Place Value
 What Does Place Value Mean in Decimal
Numbers?
 Place value is the value of a digit based on its
position in a number. In decimal numbers, we focus
on positions to the right of the decimal point, like
tenths and hundredths.
 Tenths and Hundredths
 The first place after the decimal point is the tenths
place. Each digit here is one part of 10.
 Example: In 2.3, the 3 is in the tenths place,
meaning 3/10 or 0.3
 The second place after the decimal point is the
hundredths place. Each digit here is one part of
100.
 Example: In 2.35, the 5 is in the hundredths place,
meaning 5/100 or 0.05.
 Real-Life Example: Medicine
 Doctors and nurses use decimals when measuring medicine to ensure
patients receive the correct dose.
 If the dose is 10 ml, it’s 10 times larger than 1 ml.
 If the dose is 0.1 ml (one-tenth of a milliliter), it’s 10 times smaller than 1 ml.
 A mistake here could be dangerous, which is why understanding decimal
place value is critical.
 Examples to Understand Decimal Place ValueLet’s look at the digit 5
in these examples:
 2.35 m: The 5 is in the hundredths place, meaning it’s worth 0.05.
 $1.50: The 5 is in the tenths place, meaning it’s worth 0.5 or 50 cents.
 $25: The 5 is in the ones place, meaning it’s worth 5.
Multiplying and Dividing by
10, 100, and 1000When
multiplying or dividing
decimals:
 Multiply by 10: Move the decimal
point 1 place to the right.
Example: 2.35 × 10 = 23.5.
 Multiply by 100: Move the decimal
point 2 places to the right.
Example: 2.35 × 100 = 235.
 Divide by 10: Move the decimal
point 1 place to the left.
Example: 2.35 ÷ 10 = 0.235.
 Divide by 100: Move the decimal
point 2 places to the left.
Example: 2.35 ÷ 100 = 0.0235.

1.2 Rounding decimal numbers
 Why Do We Round Numbers?
 Rounding makes numbers simpler to understand and use in everyday life.
 For example: Instead of saying, “An African elephant is 3.3 meters tall,” we can round
it to say, “It is approximately 3 meters tall.
 ”Rounding helps us make estimates when precision is not necessary.
 Steps to Round to the Nearest Whole Number:
 1. Locate the Tenths Place:The tenths place is the first digit to the right of the
decimal point.
 Example: In 3.3, the tenths digit is 3.
 2.Check the Tenths Digit:
 If the tenths digit is 5 or more, round the number up to the next whole number.
 If the tenths digit is less than 5, round the number down to the current whole
number.
 3. Adjust the Whole Number:
 If rounding up, add 1 to the whole number
 .If rounding down, the whole number stays the same.
 Examples:
 Example 1: 5.6Tenths digit:
6 (greater than 5).Rounded number: 6.
3 (less than 5).Rounded number: 7.
5 (equal to 5).Rounded number: 5.
Real-Life Applications of Rounding:
Shopping: If an item costs $5.49, you might say it costs

approximately $5.
Distance: If a runner covers 9.8 km, you could say they ran about
10 km.
Time: If a movie lasts 1.5 hours, you might round it to 2 hours for
planning.

 "Thank you for being such wonderful learners today!

Remember, understanding numbers and their place values
isn't just about math; it's about seeing the world in a
clearer, simpler way. Whether you're estimating the height
of an elephant or counting your savings, these skills will
always guide you. Keep exploring, keep asking questions,
and remember — every small step in learning leads to big
achievements. See you next time!" 🌈😊
