Place value to 1 000 000
Write five-digit and six-digit numbers as a sum of their places.
Three levels
One skill, rising difficulty
Each sheet carries one level. The three are the same skill at rising difficulty, each named for what it practises.
- Level 1: Write the number
- Add the parts. Write the number.
- Level 2: Find the missing part
- Write the missing number.
- Level 3: Parts out of order and regrouped
- Add the parts. Write the number.
Worked example
How the sheet explains it
The helper printed at the top of each sheet: one solved example and the steps a student follows, before the first question. Every number sentence in it is proven by the same checker as the answer key.
Level 1: Write the number
340 506 = 300 000 + 40 000 + 500 + 6
- Each part fills one place, from the largest on the left.
- 300 000 + 40 000 + 500 + 6 = 340 506.
- No thousands and no tens, so write 0 there: 340 506.
Level 2: Find the missing part
472 318 = 400 000 + 70 000 + 2000 + 300 + 10 + 8
- The ten thousands digit of 472 318 is 7, so the missing part is 70 000.
- Check: 400 000 + 70 000 + 2000 + 300 + 10 + 8 = 472 318.
Level 3: Parts out of order and regrouped
25 + 40 000 + 13 000 = 53 025
- 40 000 is 40 thousands and 13 000 is 13 thousands. Together: 53 thousands.
- Then add the rest: 53 000 + 25 = 53 025.
