               Sub-topic 4 : EXPANDED FORM AND STANDARD FORM


               Expanded Form:


               In expanded form of a number, the number is shown according to the place values of its
               digits.

               We can learn expanded form of a number in the following ways:


               A. if we write the number in words.

               This shown below:

               Example: 33,145


               Solution: 3 ten thousands + 3 thousands + 1 hundreds + 4 tens + 5 ones  = 100 + 40 +
               5

               B. if we arrange the digits in a place value.


               This is shown here:

               Example: Find the expanded form of 2,385.

               Solution: In 2,385, the place values of the digits are given below:
   1   2   3   4
