Devin has 39 toy blocks. What is the value of the digit 9 in this number?
The ones.it will be the ones because its in the ones place think of it like this 9 without the 3 but when you add the 3 it becomes 39
we know that
the number \(39\) in expanded form is equal to
\(39=3*10+9*1\)
so
in words
the number \(39\) has \(3\) tens and \(9\) ones
the \(3\) would be the tens place, and the \(9\) would be in the ones place
therefore
the answer is
the value of the digit, of number, \(9\) in the problem, is one, which is the value of place value
