Digital Practice Exercise 1
Drag and drop tens and ones to build the expanded form of 24.
Solution:

Expanded form: Writing a number as the sum of its place values. For 2-digit numbers: Tens + Ones

Online practice method:
  1. Identify the digit in the tens place
  2. Identify the digit in the ones place
  3. Drag the correct tens and ones blocks
  4. Connect with addition sign

20
+
4
=
24
Step 1: Identify place values

In 24: Tens digit = 2, Ones digit = 4

Step 2: Calculate place values

Tens place: 2 × 10 = 20, Ones place: 4 × 1 = 4

Step 3: Write expanded form

24 = 20 + 4

24 = 20 + 4
Final answer:

24 = 20 + 4

Online practice rules:

• Place value: Each digit has a value based on its position

• Tens rule: Tens digit × 10

• Ones rule: Ones digit × 1

• Expanded form: Sum of place values

2 Digital matching game
Digital Practice Exercise 2
Match the standard form number with its expanded form.
Solution:

Expanded form: Breaking a number into parts showing each digit's value based on position

3
7
→
30
+
7
=
37
Step 1: Identify digits and positions

In 37: Tens digit is 3, Ones digit is 7

Step 2: Calculate each place value

3 tens = 3 × 10 = 30, 7 ones = 7 × 1 = 7

Step 3: Combine with addition

37 = 30 + 7

37 = 30 + 7
Final answer:

37 = 30 + 7

Digital matching rules:

• Position matters: Leftmost digit is tens, rightmost is ones

• Value calculation: Digit × Place value (10 for tens, 1 for ones)

• Sum formation: Add all calculated values together

Digital Practice Exercise 3
Type the expanded form of the number 52.
Solution:

Expanded form: Expressing a number as the sum of each digit multiplied by its place value

5
2
→
50
+
2
=
52
Step 1: Analyze the number

52 has two digits: 5 in tens place, 2 in ones place

Step 2: Calculate place values

5 tens = 5 × 10 = 50, 2 ones = 2 × 1 = 2

Step 3: Write the expanded form

52 = 50 + 2

52 = 50 + 2
Final answer:

52 = 50 + 2

Virtual typing rules:

• Digit identification: Recognize tens and ones positions

• Value computation: Multiply each digit by its place value

• Sum representation: Show the number as a sum of its parts

Digital Practice Exercise 4
Touch the correct expanded form for the number 68.
Solution:

Expanded form: Breaking down a number to show the value of each digit based on its position

6
8
→
60
+
8
=
68
Step 1: Identify each digit

68 has digits: 6 (tens place) and 8 (ones place)

Step 2: Calculate place values

6 tens = 6 × 10 = 60, 8 ones = 8 × 1 = 8

Step 3: Form the expanded expression

68 = 60 + 8

Step 4: Verify the result

60 + 8 = 68 ✓

68 = 60 + 8
Final answer:

68 = 60 + 8

Touch screen rules:

• Position identification: Tens digit is leftmost, ones digit is rightmost

• Value multiplication: Tens digit × 10, Ones digit × 1

• Addition principle: Sum of place values equals original number

Digital Practice Exercise 5
Complete the expanded form challenge for the number 93.
Solution:

Expanded form: Expressing a number as the sum of each digit multiplied by its place value

9
3
→
90
+
3
=
93
Step 1: Recognize the digits

93 has two digits: 9 in tens place and 3 in ones place

Step 2: Compute place values

9 tens = 9 × 10 = 90, 3 ones = 3 × 1 = 3

Step 3: Write the expanded form

93 = 90 + 3

Step 4: Validate the answer

90 + 3 = 93 ✓

93 = 90 + 3
Final answer:

93 = 90 + 3

Mobile practice rules:

• Digit analysis: Identify each digit's position

• Value calculation: Multiply by respective place values

• Sum formation: Combine with addition operation

• Verification: Confirm the sum equals the original number

General Expanded Form Formula
Key definitions:

Place value: The value of a digit based on its position in a number

Expanded form: Writing a number as the sum of each digit's place value

Tens place: The second digit from the right, multiplied by 10

Ones place: The rightmost digit, multiplied by 1

Standard form: The regular way we write numbers (e.g., 24)

Digital practice: Using online tools and platforms for learning

Complete methodology:
  1. Digit identification: Recognize each digit in the number
  2. Position determination: Identify tens and ones places
  3. Value calculation: Multiply each digit by its place value
  4. Expression formation: Write the sum of calculated values
  5. Verification: Check that the sum equals the original number
Tip 1: Remember: Tens digit × 10, Ones digit × 1
Tip 2: Think of tens as bundles of 10, ones as single items
Tip 3: Always add the expanded parts to verify your answer
Tip 4: Practice regularly with online tools for best results
Common errors: Confusing tens and ones positions, forgetting to multiply by place value, miscounting digits.
Memory aid: "Teens are tens" - the first digit is always tens place in 2-digit numbers.
Essential rules to remember:

• Place value rule: In 2-digit numbers, left digit is tens, right digit is ones

• Multiplication rule: Tens digit × 10, Ones digit × 1

• Addition rule: Sum of expanded parts equals original number

• Verification rule: Always check by adding expanded parts
