1. The problem asks about place values relative to the decimal point. 2. The place value 3 places to the left of the decimal point is the hundreds place because the places to the left go: ones, tens, hundreds. 3. The place value 3 places to the right of the decimal point is the thousandths place because the places to the right go: tenths, hundredths, thousandths. 4. The decimal point is always located between the ones place and the tenths place. 5. For the number 534.1728: - The digit in the hundredths place is 7 (the second digit to the right of the decimal). - The digit in the hundreds place is 5 (the third digit to the left of the decimal). 6. The digit in the place of least value is 8 (the last digit, in the ten-thousandths place). The digit of greatest value is 5 (in the hundreds place). 7. Place values for digits: - 8 is in the ten-thousandths place. - 1 is in the tenths place. - 4 is in the ones place. - 3 is in the tens place. 8. The digit in the thousandths place is 2. - As a decimal, its value is $0.002$. - As a fraction, its value is $\frac{2}{1000}$. 9. The digit in the tenths place is 1. - As a decimal, its value is $0.1$. - As a fraction, its value is $\frac{1}{10}$. Final answers summarized: (1) Hundreds place (2) Thousandths place (3) Ones place and tenths place (4) Hundredths digit: 7, Hundreds digit: 5 (5) Least value digit: 8, Greatest value digit: 5 (6) 8: ten-thousandths, 1: tenths, 4: ones, 3: tens (7) Thousandths place value: $0.002 = \frac{2}{1000}$ (8) Tenths place value: $0.1 = \frac{1}{10}$
