This free printable Three Digit Place Value worksheet helps Grade 2 students read three-digit numbers and connect each digit to its place. Across 15 multiple-choice questions, students identify numbers shown in different arrangements, determine the value of a digit in numbers such as 350, 345, 789, and 409, and identify how many hundreds, tens, or ones a number contains. The items include zero in the ones place and require students to distinguish a digit from its place value. Designed for elementary mathematics practice, this worksheet gives students focused repetition with hundreds, tens, and ones in a clear multiple-choice format. Teachers can use it for independent work, guided review, homework, or a quick place-value check after instruction. The worksheet is free to print and includes a complete answer key, making it easy to review choices and identify whether students need more practice reading numbers or interpreting digit values.

This Grade 2 mathematics worksheet uses 15 multiple-choice questions to practise reading three-digit numbers and identifying the value of individual digits. Students also determine how many hundreds, tens, or ones appear in numbers, including interpreting the zero in 409 as having a value of 0.
Use the number-identification questions first to have students read each three-digit number from left to right, then connect the hundreds, tens, and ones positions to the digit-value questions. Ask students to explain why the same digit can have a different value depending on its position, and use the questions about 350, 345, 789, and 409 for guided discussion before assigning the remaining items independently.
Watch for students reversing digits when identifying numbers, such as confusing 569 with 965 or 659. Students may also name the digit instead of its value, confuse a digit's place with its quantity, or overlook that the 0 in 409 represents zero ones. The questions about hundreds and tens can reveal whether students are reading the position correctly rather than simply selecting a familiar digit.
You can assign this worksheet as a printable PDF or as a digital quiz on Wayground. It includes a complete answer key for checking all 15 multiple-choice responses, and printable student work can be graded by scanning it with the Wayground for Teachers app. The printable format also gives schools an option for reducing screen time.
In the worksheet's Advanced Settings, adjust font spacing or choose a larger font size to make the three-digit numbers and answer choices easier to scan. You can also turn on a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language while keeping the number-identification and place-value questions intact.
