What to Focus On

  • Place value depends on the position of the digit.
  • In two-digit numbers: left digit = Tens, right digit = Ones.
  • Place value = digit × value of its place.
  • Face value is the digit itself.
  • It does not depend on the position.
  • For example: In 78, face value of 7 is 7 and 8 is 8.
  • Face value of 0 is 0.
  • Place value of 0 is always 0.
  • For example: In 20, place value and face value of 0 is 0.

Memory Tips

Place value depends on position

Face value is the digit itself

Place value = Face value × Place

Zero has place value 0, face value 0
