Thousands, Ten
Thousands, Hundred
Thousands
Let’s take a look at the next three place value positions.
First we have the THOUSANDS position.
Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones
1,000 100 10 1
,
Comma
We would need 10 hundred slabs to equal 1 Thousands
cube
10 hundreds = 1 Thousands
We use a comma to separate groups of 3 numbers!
Next there is the TEN THOUSANDS position.
Ten
Thousands Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones
10,000 1,000 100 10 1
,
Again we go in groups of 10…
10 thousands = 1 Ten Thousands
Finally, there is the HUNDRED THOUSANDS position.
Hundred Ten
Thousands Thousands Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones
100,000 10,000 1,000 100 10 1
,
Again we go in increments of 10…
10 ten thousands = 1 Hundred Thousands
How many thousands would it take to equal 100,000?
_________ thousands = 1 Hundred Thousands

Thousands Thousands Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones
300,000 90,000 2,000 700 50 4
,
61,803
How would I read that?

Hundred Ten
Thousands Thousands Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones
,
Let’s take that same number and look at it
backwards
