<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Next, combine the values from each place and then read the values aloud. In 888, we see that the number consists of 8 ‘hundreds’, 8 ‘tens’, and 8 ‘ones’. 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 “eight hundred eighty-eight”.</p>
