Comparing Place Values in 5th Grade Math

The video tutorial explains the 10th-grade standard of comparing place values. It discusses how each place value is ten times larger than the one before it and one-tenth the size of the one after it. The video uses visual examples to demonstrate these concepts, showing how numbers increase or decrease in value as they move between place values. It also covers how to compare place values that are multiple spaces apart and emphasizes the importance of understanding these relationships for mental math.

What happens to the value of a digit as you move one place to the left?

• It remains the same.

• It becomes ten times smaller.

• It becomes ten times larger.

• It becomes one hundred times larger.

If you have a digit 4 in the ones place, what is its value when moved to the tens place?

• 400

• 0.4

• 40

• 4

How many times larger is the digit 4 in the hundreds place compared to the ones place?

• 1,000 times

• 1 time

• 10 times

• 100 times

What is the value of a digit 4 in the thousands place compared to the ones place?

• 4

• 4,000

• 400

• 40

If a digit is moved two places to the right, what happens to its value?

• It becomes 100 times smaller.

• It becomes 10 times smaller.

• It becomes 100 times larger.

• It remains the same.

How many spaces apart are the tens place and the tenths place?

• Two spaces

• Four spaces

• One space

• Three spaces

In the example of 45 and 41.1, how many times larger is the 4 in the tens place compared to the 4 in the tenths place?

• 1,000 times

• 100 times

• 1 time

• 10 times

When comparing the digit 9 in the tens place to the digit 9 in the hundreds place, what is the relationship?

• The hundreds place is 10 times larger.

• The tens place is 10 times larger.

• The hundreds place is 1/10 the size.

• The tens place is 1/10 the size.

What is the key focus of the standard discussed in the video?

• Solving algebraic equations.

• Understanding the value of digits.

• Comparing place values and their relationships.

• Learning multiplication tables.

What should you determine first when answering questions about place value relationships?

• The type of number (integer or decimal).

• The value of the digit.

• The number of spaces apart the place values are.

• The digit in the ones place.
