Place value is a system that groups numbers based on their size.
The position of a digit determines its value. When we say numbers we group then within the same house. For example 15709 has fifteen thousand , seven hundred and nine one.
Understanding our base 10 place value system allows us to pronounce big numbers properly. It also allows us to identify numbers before and after.
