#Method 1

 To expand the number 2,311, we separate a number by their place value and expand it to show the value of each digit.

  • The value of digit 2 at Thousands place =2000,
  • The value of digit 3 at Hundreds place =300,
  • The value of digit 1 at Tens place = 10,
  • The value of digit 1 at Ones place =1,

If you add the place value of each digit then you will get a total of 2,311

2000+300+ 10+ 1= 2,311

So, the expanded form of 2,311 is 2000 + 300 + 10 + 1

Another method that can be used for writing numbers in expanded form is to write the digits one by one and convert all the c9ming numbers to zero.

Method #2

This method works by multiplying the digit with its place value.

Example: 2,311

  • 2 x 1000
  • 3 x 100
  • 1 x 10
  • 1 x 1

(2 x 1000) + (3 x100) + (1 x10) + (1 x 1) = 2,311 is the expanded form of 2,311.

Method #3

In this method, the first digit is written and then its place value is written adjacent to it.

Example: 2,311

2 Thousands + 3 Hundreds + 1 Tens + 1 ones = 2,311.
