32,900 is the number
3 is in the ten thousands place so if there are 3, 3×10=30 thousand or 30 one thousands
2 is in the thousands place so if there are two, 2×1=2 thousand or 2 one thousands
9 is in the hundreds place so since its not a full thousand, [tex] \frac{900}{1000} [/tex] = .9
So 30+2+9=32.9
There are 32.9 thousands or 32.9×[tex] 10^{3} [/tex]
