Hi, thumb = position 1, index finger = 2, middle finger =3, and so forth, where pinky = 5. This applies to both hands. You might see these numberings on piano books.
If you're referring to the hand position on the piano, the standard position is to place both thumbs on middle C. The other fingers will place accordingly to the white keys next to Middle C. Middle C is located at the middle of the piano. If you're not sure where it is located, you may take a look at the first few pages of some easy piano books. Usually they will indicate to you where Middle C located on a piano.
