Final answer:

Without additional context, we cannot be certain of the intended place values for the sequences. However, assuming standard place values and a typical right-to-left reading, the digits in the units place for the sequences 5, 7, 2; 6, 0, 3; and 9, 2, 7 would respectively be '2', '3', and '7'. correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question 'name the digit that has the given place value', let's examine each of the sequences in turn.

(a) In the sequence 5, 7, 2, without additional context, we cannot assign a specific place value to the digits given. This question might be missing some parts or it is possible that it is asking for the units place among these digits, which would be '2' assuming a standard right-to-left reading of place values (ones, tens, hundreds).

(c) In the sequence 6, 0, 3, we again face the same issue as in (a). Assuming standard place values, if '3' is in the units place, '0' would then represent tens and '6' would represent hundreds, making '6' the digit in the hundreds place value.

(d) Regarding 9, 2, 7, following the same reasoning and place value assumptions as the previous sequences, '9' would be in the hundreds place, '2' in the tens, and '7' in the units place.

It's important to note that this is assuming a typical reading of numbers where the last digit represents the units.
