B. lakhs
C. 9
D. 1

Answer 1

Hint:- 9 is the digit and 9,74,342 is a number and face value of a digit in the number is the digit itself.

Complete step-by-step answer:

As we know that in a number there are two types of values: face value and place value.
Place value in Maths describes the position or place of a digit in a number. Each digit has a place in a number. When we represent the number in general form, the position of each digit will be expanded. Those positions start from a unit place or we also call it one's position. After units, it comes tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand, hundred thousands and so on.
Face value of a digit is the value of the digit itself, in a number. Whether the number is single-digit, double-digit, or three-digit or any number, each digit has its face value.
So, let us draw a chart for the face and place value of the number 9,74,342.

So, as we can see from the above table that the face value of 9 will be 9.
Hence, the correct option will be C.

Note:- Whenever we come up with this type of problem then we should remember that face value and place value of a digit are different, they are not the same and face value of digit does not depend on the number. So, the face value of a digit will be the same for every number. But the place value of a digit depends on the number. So, the place value of a digit may change when the number changes.
