Answer Key with Marking Scheme
Section A (10 marks)
-
8 [1 mark]
Teaching: Place values from right: ones (7), tens (2), hundreds (8), thousands (4). Hundreds digit is 8. -
6000 [1 mark]
Teaching: Digit 6 is in thousands place, so its value is 6 × 1000 = 6000. Common mistake: writing 6 instead of 6000. -
2415, 2451, 2514, 2541 [1 mark]
Teaching: Compare thousands (all 2), then hundreds: 4 vs 4 vs 5 vs 5 → 24xx smallest, then 25xx. Within 24xx: 2415 < 2451; within 25xx: 2514 < 2541. -
3762 [1 mark]
Teaching: Both have 3 thousands, 7 hundreds. Compare tens: 6 vs 2 → 3762 larger. -
3500 [1 mark]
Teaching: Rounding to nearest hundred: look at tens digit (5). Since 5 ≥ 5, round up → 3500. -
8000 [1 mark]
Teaching: Rounding to nearest thousand: look at hundreds digit (8). 8 ≥ 5, round up → 8000. -
1350 [1 mark]
Teaching: Pattern increases by 50 each step (1250−1200=50). 1300+50=1350. -
6000 [1 mark]
Teaching: Decreasing by 1000 each time. 7000−1000=6000. -
7234 [1 mark]
Teaching: seven thousand = 7000, two hundred = 200, thirty = 30, four = 4 → 7234. -
4392 [1 mark]
Teaching: Even numbers end with 0,2,4,6,8. Only 4392 ends with 2.
Section B (12 marks)
-
6439 books [2 marks]
Working: 3452 + 2987
= 3000+2000=5000, 400+900=1300, 50+80=130, 2+7=9 → 5000+1300=6300, +130=6430, +9=6439.
Marking: 1 mark for correct addition setup, 1 mark for final answer. -
Nearest ten: 6540; Nearest thousand: 7000 [2 marks]
Working: Ten: ones digit 3 (<5) → round down to 6540. Thousand: hundreds digit 5 (≥5) → round up to 7000.
Marking: 1 mark each. -
2600, 2800 [2 marks]
Working: Difference 2200−2000=200. Add 200 each: 2400+200=2600, +200=2800.
Marking: 1 mark each blank. -
Five thousand and eighty [2 marks]
Teaching: 5000 = five thousand, 80 = eighty, 0 ones → five thousand and eighty.
Marking: 1 mark for五千, 1 mark for eighty/no "and hundred". -
6724 < 6742 [2 marks]
Working: Thousands and hundreds same (67). Tens: 2 vs 4 → 2 < 4, so 6724 smaller.
Marking: 1 mark symbol, 1 mark explanation. -
4 [2 marks]
Working: For 7_45 to round to 7000, hundreds digit must be <5 (since we round to thousand, look at hundreds). Largest such digit is 4.
Marking: 1 mark reasoning, 1 mark answer.
Section C (12 marks)
-
5000 stamps [3 marks]
Working: 1350 + 2180 = 3530; 3530 + 1470 = 5000.
Marking: 1 mark first sum, 1 mark second sum, 1 mark total. -
1130 cans [3 marks]
Working: 4820 − 3690. 4820−3000=1820, 1820−600=1220, 1220−90=1130.
Marking: 1 mark setup, 1 mark subtraction, 1 mark answer. -
2500, 3000; Rule: add 500 each time [3 marks]
Working: 1500−1000=500, 2000−1500=500 → add 500. 2000+500=2500, +500=3000.
Marking: 1 mark each missing number, 1 mark rule. -
Ten: 4960; Hundred: 5000; Thousand: 5000; Order: 4960, 5000, 5000 [3 marks]
Working: Ten: ones 6≥5 → 4960. Hundred: tens 5≥5 → 5000. Thousand: hundreds 9≥5 → 5000. Order smallest: 4960 then 5000 (twice).
