Question

Write the name of the period that has the digits 913.

Answer 1

The answer is the thousands period.

Explanation:

Periods of numbers are sets of three digits that are separated by commas when written in standard form.

The period at the right end of a number is the hundreds period; it includes the place values ones, tens, and hundreds.

The period to the left of the hundreds period is the thousands period; it includes the place values thousands, ten-thousands and hundred-thousands. In this number, 9 is in the hundred-thousands place, 1 is in the ten-thousands place, and 3 is in the thousands place; this puts 913 in the thousands period.

Answer 2

Answer: the thousands period.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The complete number is: 913,256.

4) The second group of three digits is 3, 1, and 9, which means: 3 thousands, 1 ten thousands, and 9 hundred thousands. This group is called the thousands period.
