In this video, Mr. J explains how to express whole numbers in expanded form, enhancing number sense and understanding. The video covers three examples, starting with a place value chart to break down the digits of 576,901, then moving to larger numbers like 63,085,004 and 2,072,080,000. Each example demonstrates the importance of correctly identifying the value of each digit and the role of zeros. The video concludes with a mention of an alternative method using parentheses, with a link to a separate video for further learning.
