Exploring Place Value Relationships for 4th Graders

The video tutorial explores the relationships between digits in a number, focusing on how the value of digits changes based on their position. Using examples with the numbers 5547 and 5457, the tutorial demonstrates how to determine the relationship between digits that are the same but in different places. It explains that when digits are next to each other, the value of the larger place is ten times the smaller. When separated by another digit, the value is 100 times greater. This concept is illustrated through multiplication and place value charts.

• 50

In the number 5547, what is the value of the digit 5 in the hundreds place?

• 50

• 5

• 5000

• 500

What is the relationship between the values of the two 5s in the number 5547?

• The first 5 is 50 times larger than the second 5

• The first 5 is 5 times larger than the second 5

• The first 5 is 10 times larger than the second 5

• The first 5 is 100 times larger than the second 5

When two digits are next to each other in a place value chart and are the same, what operation do you perform to find the value of the larger number?

• Divide by 10

• Add 10

• Subtract 10

• Multiply by 10

In the number 5457, what is the value of the digit 5 in the tens place?

• 50

• 500

• 5000

• 5

In the number 5457, what is the value of the digit 5 in the thousands place?

• 5

• 500

• 50

What is the relationship between the values of the two 5s in the number 5457?

• The first 5 is 5 times larger than the second 5

• The first 5 is 10 times larger than the second 5

• The first 5 is 100 times larger than the second 5

• The first 5 is 50 times larger than the second 5

When two digits are two places away in a place value chart and are the same, what operation do you perform to find the value of the larger number?

• Subtract 100

• Add 100

• Multiply by 10

• Multiply by 100

Why is the value of the first 5 in 5457 100 times greater than the value of the second 5?

• Because they are next to each other

• Because they are two places away in the place value chart

• Because they are three places away in the place value chart

• Because they are four places away in the place value chart
