Answer:

700,000

Explanation:

To explain this, we need to know the basics.

If you look at the number 790,390, you should automatically know that you can also write the same number as:

700,000 + 90,000 + 300 + 90

How did we do this?

Because each number in 790,390 has a value.

In fact, we can do this for any number! Like this:

12,345

You can also write the same number like this:

10,000 + 2,000 + 300 + 40 + 5

Back to the original question. If there is a seven in the hundred thousands place, that means that the 9 is equal to 700,000

Examples:

12,345

The 3 in this number stands for 300, since it is in the hundreds place.

678,900

The 7 in this number stands for 70,000 because it is in the ten thousands place

Now you know!
