Understanding Base 10 Number System

This video tutorial covers the concept of number sense, focusing on the whole number system and its base 10 structure. It explains the use of digits 0-9 to express numbers and how these digits are organized into place values, such as ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands. The video also delves into the concept of powers of 10, which determine the value of each place. By understanding these foundational concepts, students can grasp the relationships between numbers and develop efficient algorithms for mathematical operations.
