How do you calculate values then?
The math question was: "in the number 5062973 what is the value of each of these numbers?" a) 6 b) 9 c) 3
Trev answered: a) hundred thousand b) hundreds c) tens

So bottom line, is the correct?

I am on Yahoo messenger at runtrev if this could be easier for you, it would be for me!

oh, i see. Okay. Next question was write the six digit # that has the 4 in the thousands' place. His answer was 433,333. My answer would be 334,333. which of us is right?

What six digit #? Why pick 3's?
With no restriction, play it safe: 444,444

334,333 has the 4 in thousands' place; why are you not sure?
