1. Label the place values of the
   following decimal

3. 45

In the decimal 3.45, the number 3 is in the “ones” place, while the number 4 is in the “tenths” place, and the number 5 is in the “hundredths” place. So, you can say that 3 represents three whole units, 4 represents four-tenths of a whole, and 5 represents five-hundredths of a whole. It’s a little numerical party!

Now, think of decimals like a treasure map where each place value holds a certain amount of treasure! Starting with the ones (3 shiny coins), moving to tenths (4 golden nuggets), and finally hundredths (5 sparkling gems). Each decimal digit counts and plays a crucial role in pointing you to the treasure’s true value!
