Digits have different values depending on their place in a number.

Here is the number 2,032,002 represented in a place value grid.

• When a column is empty, we use a zero as a placeholder when writing the number.
• We write and say the number by grouping the millions, the thousands and the tens:
• Two million, thirty-two thousand, and two.
• Always place your commas by counting in groups of 3 from the ones column.
