The correct answer is:

The tens place, for a value of 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number at the end of a whole number is in the ones place. The number to the left of that is the tens place; the number to the left of that the hundreds place, and beyond that the next place is the thousands.

In our number, 2 is in the ones place, and has a value of 2(1) = 2.

3 is in the next place left, which is the tens place. Its value is 3(10) = 30.

4 is in the next place left, the hundreds place; its value is 4(100) = 400.

we know that

The first digit from the right is the units of the number

The second digit from the right is the tens of the number

The third digit from the right is the hundreds of the number

so

In this problem


2 represent
2 units-------->
2*1=2


3 represent
3 tens-------->
3*10=30


4 represent
4 hundreds-------->
4*100=400

therefore

the answer is


3 tens or
30
