Question

Choose the number below that represents the digit in the hundreds place of the number 1098. A)8 b)0 c)1 d)9

Answer 1

The number in the hundreds place is 0

Answer 2

B) 0

Explanation:

The number that represents the digit in the hundreds place of the number 1098 is 0. Since we know that a hundred (100) has two zeros, this means we will count 2 values starting from the back of the given number (1098). The value before the last number counted will represent the digits in the hundred place. The two values counted from the back are 8 and 9. The value preceding 9 is 0, thereby making 0 to represent the digit in the hundred place.
