C. place values

Explanation:

Place value can be defined as the numerical value representing a digit owing to its position in a number. Some examples of the various place values used in representing each digit are tenths, hundredths, thousandths, unit, tens, hundreds, thousands etc.

For example, in the number 316.2;

In the real-world, their instances where there are limitations in counting and representing real numbers that are infinite (too small or too large). In order to overcome these limitations or barriers, we use place values.

An overflow error arises when a real number cannot be represented because it is too large and exceeds the upper limits of a range chosen.

Also, a roundoff error can be defined as the difference between the output generated from an algorithm using an exact or actual numbers and the output generated using rounded or finite-precision numbers.

Hence, overflow and roundoff errors result from real-world limitations in representing place values.
