Solution

The place value of a digit in a number depends on its position. Here are a few examples demonstrating the place value of the digit 8 in different numbers:

  1. In the number 85:

    • The digit 8 is in the tens place.
    • Therefore, its place value is 8×10=808 \times 10 = 80.
  2. In the number 384:

    • The digit 8 is in the tens place.
    • Therefore, its place value is 8×10=808 \times 10 = 80.
  3. In the number 2,830:

    • The digit 8 is in the hundreds place.
    • Therefore, its place value is 8×100=8008 \times 100 = 800.
  4. In the number 57,689:

    • The digit 8 is in the tens place.
    • Therefore, its place value is 8×10=808 \times 10 = 80.
  5. In the number 486:

    • The digit 8 is in the units place.
    • Therefore, its place value is 8×1=88 \times 1 = 8.

The place value of a digit is always calculated by multiplying the digit by the value of its position (units, tens, hundreds, thousands, etc.).
