Answer 1

The value of the digit 2 in the number 12,600 is 2,000

Explanation:

we have the number 12,600

Rewrite the number in expanded form (write the number in its digits value)

`12,600=10,000+2,000+600`

so

The value of the digit 1 in the number is 10,000

The value of the digit 2 in the number is 2,000

The value of the digit 6 in the number is 600
