• B. Statements 2 and 3 are true

Answer 1

The correct option is A Statements 1 and 2 are true

Say: On our screen, we have an abacus and four statements.
Let us read each one of them and see which statements are correct.

Steps:
$\bullet$ The abacus shows 6 Hundreds, 4 Tens, and 3 Ones.
$\bullet$ Statement 1: Face value: 6 at Hundreds, 4 at Tens, and 3 at Ones. This is true.
$\bullet$ Statement 2: Place value: 6 Hundreds, 4 Tens, and 3 Ones. This is also true.
$\bullet$ Statement 3: Face value: 6 Hundreds, 4 Tens, and 3 Ones. These are not face values. They are place values. This is not true.
$\bullet$ Statement 4: Place value: 6 at Hundreds, 4 at Tens, and 3 at Ones. These are not place values. These are face values. This is not true.
$\bullet$ Thus, Statements 1 and 2 are correct.
$\bullet$ Hence, option C is the correct answer.
