Place Values and Division by Ten

The video tutorial explains the concept of place value, where each digit in a number has a different value depending on its position. It illustrates this with a chart showing ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands places. The tutorial explains the relationship between these values, showing that each place value is equal to the value of the place to its left divided by 10. Using the number 4444, it demonstrates how the same digit can represent different values in different places. The concept is extended to larger numbers, such as ten thousands and hundred thousands, reinforcing the rule that a digit's value in one place is equal to its value in the place to its left divided by 10.
