🔢 Understanding 3-Digit Numbers
T hree-digit numbers are made up of hundreds, tens, and ones. Each digit has a place, and its position tells us how much it is worth.
📍 Place Value of Digits
F or example, in the number 327, the digit 3 represents 300, the digit 2 represents 20, and the digit 7 represents 7. Adding these values together gives the total value of the number.
🧠 Why Place Value Matters
Y ou need to know what each digit represents to understand the value of the whole number. This helps you read, write, compare, and work confidently with numbers.
❓ EXERCISES
1. Complete these pieces, which are from a $1$ to $1000$ number grid.
👀 Show answer
Right $+1$, Left $-1$, Down $+10$, Up $-10$.
From $132$: $142, 152, 153, 154, 155, 125, 115$.
From $479$: $469, 489, 478, 480$.
From $256$: $246, 266, 255, 257$.
From $147$: $146, 157, 156$.
From $782$: $772, 792, 781, 783$.
2. Complete the missing numbers.
👀 Show answer
$913 = 900 + 10 + 3$
$500 + 70 + 6 = 576$
$300 + 90 + 5 = 395$

🧠 Think like a Mathematician
Tomas made nine $3$-digit numbers using a set of place value cards. Seven of the numbers are $473$, $689$, $358$, $134$, $925$, $247$ and $791$. What could the other two numbers be?
Compare your numbers with those of someone else in your class. If your numbers are different, can you explain why?
👀 Show answer
One possible pair of numbers is $861$ and $594$.
The exact answers may be different because the same place value cards can be arranged in different orders to make different $3$-digit numbers. As long as no digit card is reused and all numbers are valid, multiple correct solutions are possible.
❓ EXERCISES
6. Use these number words to write four $3$-digit numbers.
Words: hundred, eight, and, seventy-, fifty-, three
👀 Show answer
$853$
$873$
$583$
$573$
Other answers are possible as long as the given words are used correctly to form valid $3$-digit numbers.
