Place value is the system used to determine the value of a digit based on its position in a number. In the decimal system, which is the most commonly used system, there are ten different place values. The first position is the ones place, followed by the tens place, hundreds place, thousands place, ten thousands place, hundred thousands place, millions place, ten millions place, hundred millions place, and billions place. Each place is worth ten times the value of the place to its right, allowing for the representation of large numbers.
