Writing numerals to 100 connects a quantity and its spoken or written number name to conventional base-ten notation for 0 through 100. In two-digit numerals, the left digit represents tens and the right digit represents ones; zero can indicate an empty place, and 100 represents one hundred with one hundreds place and zero tens and ones. This understanding supports comparing, composing, and operating with whole numbers; numbers beyond 100 are outside this scope.
