The following claims were verified through Perplexity Sonar before the questions were finalised. The host can reference any of them during play:

• Place value is the value of a digit based on its position within a number, such as the '2' in 23 representing two tens and the '3' representing three ones[6][8].
• In whole numbers, the last digit is always placed in the ones column, which is the column furthest to the right[1].
• The tens place represents groups of 10, meaning 10 ones blocks are grouped together to form a single ten block[2].
• All teen numbers (11 through 19) are made up of exactly one group of 10 and some extra ones[3].
• For a two-digit number like 78, the digit on the left is in the tens place (7 tens or 70) and the digit on the right is in the ones place (8 ones or 8)[1].
• In the number 786, the digit 7 is in the hundreds place, 8 is in the tens place, and 6 is in the ones place[1].
• You can only have one digit (a number from 0 to 9) in any single place value column or 'room'[2].
• Counting by grouping items into tens and then adding the extra ones is easier than counting all items by ones[3][5].
• The number 10 means '1 ten and 0 ones' in place value notation, not 11 tens[2].
• When comparing two 2-digit numbers, the number with the larger tens digit is always the larger number, regardless of the ones digit[8].
