What is it? Place value refers to an aspect of our base ten number system that looks at the value of digits within a numeral, based on their place. Our whole numbers increase in value from right to left, with each place worth ten times more than the place to its right. We use the numerical terms ones, tens, hundreds, thousands and beyond to name numerical values. Foundational to our place value system is the idea that groups/sets of ten can be counted and represented as single entities.
