In the number 23200 , the first two is in the ten-thousands place :
Face Value of 2 = 2
Place Value of 2 = 2 × 10,000 = 20,000
Difference = Place Value – Face Value = 20,000 – 2 = 19,998
So none of the given options (a–d) are correct for this actual difference.
Face Value = 2
Place Value = 2 × 100 = 200
Difference = 200 – 2 = 198
Correct Answer: b. 198

Option b that is 198.
Explanation: Place value= 200,Face value=2
Difference= 200-2=198.
Place value is the number multiplied with 100(since 2 is in hundred place) and face value is the number itself.
Another possible answer could have been 19998. That is 2 multiplied by 10000 to get the place value minus 2(face value) . But since it is not given in the options so we go with the first answer. Thank you.
