Three digits numbers start from 100 and end at 999. So, the smallest three-digit number is 100 and the largest 3-digit number is 999. In Maths, the number is defined by the number of digits it has. A three-digit number will be described by the place values of its digits. As we know, there are nine single-digit numbers, i.e., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and ninety two-digits numbers (from 10 to 99). A two-digit number is formed using zero (0) along with a single digit. Now, the three-digit numbers are also formed using these single digits or double digits, along with using zero (0). For example, 809 is a three-digit number, where the place value of 9 is ones, 0 is tens and 8 is hundreds.
List of Three Digits Numbers
As we already discussed, the three digits numbers are from 100 (hundred) to 999 (nine hundred ninety-nine). Before we see the list of three digits numbers, first let us discuss how many three digits numbers we have from 100 to 999.
Since, 99 + 1 = 100
And
1000 – 1 = 999
Count of Numbers from 1 to 1000 = 1000
Now excluding single digits, two-digit numbers and 1000 (a four-digit number) from the list of numbers of 1 to 1000, we are left with:
1000 – 99 – 1 = 900
Hence, there are 900 three-digit numbers in total.
Numbers up to 3-digits are provided here in the below table.
100 – 199100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, ……., 198, 199200 – 299200, 201, ….., 210, ….., 221, ….., 231, ….., 241, …, 251, …, 261, …., 271,…., 281, …., 291,…, 299300 – 399300, 301, 302, 303, ……., 398, 399400 – 499400, 401, 402, 403, ……., 498, 499500 – 599500, 501, 502, 503, ……., 598, 599600 – 699600, 601, 602, 603, ……., 698, 699700 – 799700, 701, 702, 703, ……., 798, 799800 – 899800, 801, 802, 803, ……., 898, 899900 – 999900, 901, 902, 903, …….., 989, 999
Place Value of Three-digit Numbers
Each digit, in a three-digit number, has its place value. This place value basically represents the location or position of the digit in a number. The position of the digits helps us to determine the value of a number. The digit at the right-most place in a three-digit number is said to be at one’s place or unit place, the middle digit is at ten’s place and the left-most digit is at hundred’s place.
Three Digits Numbers Place ValuesHundredsTensOnesDigit – 1Digit – 2Digit – 3
For example, in the number 342, the place values of all the three digits are:
HundredsTensOnes342
Expanded Form of Three Digits Numbers
The three digits numbers say ABC, can be expanded in the form of:
ABC = A x 100 + B x 10 + C x 1
Where A, B and C are the three digits.
Thus, by this expansion, we can also determine the place value of the digits.
- A is at hundred place
- B is at tens place
- C is at ones place
Examples are given below to make you understand better.
- 202 = 200 x 100 + 0 x 10 + 2 x 1
- 421 = 4 x 100 + 2 x 10 + 1 x 1
- 666 = 6 x 100 + 6 x 10 + 6 x 1
- 745 = 7 x 100 + 4 x 10 + 5 x 1
Operations on Three Digits Numbers
We can perform all four arithmetic operations on a three-digit number. We should notice the below-given points while adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing the three-digit numbers.
In the program - h, t and u represents digit at hundredth location, digit at tenth location and digit at unit location respectively in a three digit number.
Initialised h with '0', t with 012, 013, 014, 015, 016, 017, 018, 019, 023, 024, 025, 026, 027, 028, 029, 034, 035, 036, 037, 038, 039, 045, 046, 047, 048, 049, 056, 057, 058, 059, 067, 068, 069, 078, 079, 089, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 156, 157, 158, 159, 167, 168, 169, 178, 179, 189, 234, 235, 236, 237, 238, 239, 245, 246, 247, 248, 249, 256, 257, 258, 259, 267, 268, 269, 278, 279, 289, 345, 346, 347, 348, 349, 356, 357, 358, 359, 367, 368, 369, 378, 379, 389, 456, 457, 458, 459, 467, 468, 469, 478, 479, 489, 567, 568, 569, 578, 579, 589, 678, 679, 689, 789, 0 and u with 012, 013, 014, 015, 016, 017, 018, 019, 023, 024, 025, 026, 027, 028, 029, 034, 035, 036, 037, 038, 039, 045, 046, 047, 048, 049, 056, 057, 058, 059, 067, 068, 069, 078, 079, 089, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 156, 157, 158, 159, 167, 168, 169, 178, 179, 189, 234, 235, 236, 237, 238, 239, 245, 246, 247, 248, 249, 256, 257, 258, 259, 267, 268, 269, 278, 279, 289, 345, 346, 347, 348, 349, 356, 357, 358, 359, 367, 368, 369, 378, 379, 389, 456, 457, 458, 459, 467, 468, 469, 478, 479, 489, 567, 568, 569, 578, 579, 589, 678, 679, 689, 789, 2 because 012, 013, 014, 015, 016, 017, 018, 019, 023, 024, 025, 026, 027, 028, 029, 034, 035, 036, 037, 038, 039, 045, 046, 047, 048, 049, 056, 057, 058, 059, 067, 068, 069, 078, 079, 089, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 156, 157, 158, 159, 167, 168, 169, 178, 179, 189, 234, 235, 236, 237, 238, 239, 245, 246, 247, 248, 249, 256, 257, 258, 259, 267, 268, 269, 278, 279, 289, 345, 346, 347, 348, 349, 356, 357, 358, 359, 367, 368, 369, 378, 379, 389, 456, 457, 458, 459, 467, 468, 469, 478, 479, 489, 567, 568, 569, 578, 579, 589, 678, 679, 689, 789, 3 is the smallest three digit number without any of the digits being repeated.
