Step 2: Next, combine the values from each place and then read the values aloud. In 450000, we can see that the number consists of 0 ‘ones’, 0 ‘tens’, 0 ‘hundreds’, 0 ‘thousands’, and 45 ‘thousands’. Starting from the leftmost value, read the number together from left to right, keeping in mind the place values.
