Let’s look into how we represent 1097 in its place values with the help of a place value chart. So for 1097, we split the number into thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones. 1 represents the thousands in place, 0 is in the hundreds, 9 is in the tens, and 7 is in the ones place.

Step 1: Begin with the leftmost digit, and assign each digit a place value as you move from left to right. For 1097, we start from thousands, hundreds, tens, and then the ones place.

Starting from the leftmost value, read the number together from left to right, keeping in mind the place values. When we read it out loud, we read it as “one thousand ninety-seven”.
