Question

What is the place value of 2 in 72537m

Answer 1

Consider the given number,

`72537`

Write the number into expanded form,

`=70000+2000+500+30+7`

Taking a step further,

`=(7*10000)+(2*1000)+(5*100)+(3*10)+(7*1)`

Clearly, digit 2 occurs with a 1000.

So it can be concluded that the place value of 2 is 1000, means thousands place.
