The largest place value of the numeric part of this quantity is in the million place value.
Thus, the answer is:
_____ million
To determine the largest place value of the numeric part of the quantity 12,345,000, we can write it in scientific notation.
12,345,000 can be expressed as 1.2345 x 10^7.
In scientific notation, the largest place value is determined by the exponent of 10. In this case, the exponent is 7.
Therefore, the largest place value of the numeric part of the quantity 12,345,000 is _____ million, where the blank represents the whole number part of the scientific notation, which is 1.
To identify the largest place value of the numeric part of the quantity 12,345,000, we need to determine the position of the leftmost digit. In this case, the digit '1' is in the millions place, followed by a decimal point.
To express this quantity in scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point to the right until there is only one digit to the left of it.
Starting with 12,345,000, we move the decimal point six places to the left, resulting in 1.2345.
In scientific notation, this can be written as 1.2345 x 10^6, where 10^6 represents "1 million."
Therefore, the largest place value of the numeric part of the quantity is "million."
