abacus to represent 734.

                                Hundreds       Tens       Ones










                            7 Hundreds        3 Tens         4 Ones


            7 is the hundred place digit
            So, the place value of 7 = 7 hundred or 700

            3 is the tens place digit
            So, the place value of 3 = 3 tens or 30
            4 is the ones place digit

            So, the place value of 4 = 4 ones or 4


            We can also use bottle tops to represent the place value
            of the same number. In groups, collect bottle tops.

            Arrange them to show the place value of 734.
