Total Marks: 80
SECTION A: Multiple-Choice Questions (20 marks)
1. In the number 68,429, which digit is in the thousands place? [2]
Answer: (2) 8
Explanation:
The place values from right to left are: ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands.
In 68,429:
- 9 is in the ones place
- 2 is in the tens place
- 4 is in the hundreds place
- 8 is in the thousands place
- 6 is in the ten thousands place
Common mistake: Confusing "thousands" with "ten thousands" or "hundreds".
2. What does the digit 7 stand for in 57,381? [2]
Answer: (4) 7000
Explanation:
In 57,381:
- 1 is in the ones place → 1
- 8 is in the tens place → 80
- 3 is in the hundreds place → 300
- 7 is in the thousands place → 7,000
- 5 is in the ten thousands place → 50,000
The digit 7 stands for 7 thousands = 7,000.
3. Round 42,756 to the nearest hundred. [2]
Answer: (2) 42,800
Explanation:
To round to the nearest hundred, look at the tens digit.
42,756 → tens digit is 5.
Since the tens digit is 5 or more, round up the hundreds digit.
Hundreds digit is 7 → becomes 8.
42,756 ≈ 42,800 (to the nearest hundred).
Common mistake: Rounding to the nearest thousand (43,000) or ten (42,760) instead.
4. Which of the following numbers when rounded to the nearest thousand gives 35,000? [2]
Answer: (4) 35,499
Explanation:
When rounding to the nearest thousand, look at the hundreds digit.
- 34,499 → hundreds digit 4 → rounds down to 34,000 ✗
- 34,500 → hundreds digit 5 → rounds up to 35,000 ✓ (but this is the smallest)
- 35,500 → hundreds digit 5 → rounds up to 36,000 ✗
- 35,499 → hundreds digit 4 → rounds down to 35,000 ✓
The question asks for a number that rounds to 35,000. Both 34,500 and 35,499 round to 35,000, but only 35,499 is among the options.
5. Find the value of 24,583 + 15,417. [2]
Answer: (2) 40,000
Working:
24,583
+ 15,417
--------
40,000
583 + 417 = 1,000, so 24,000 + 15,000 + 1,000 = 40,000.
6. Find the value of 80,000 − 27,345. [2]
Answer: (1) 52,655
Working:
80,000
- 27,345
--------
52,655
Subtract from right to left with regrouping:
0 - 5 → borrow from thousands, etc.
Check: 52,655 + 27,345 = 80,000 ✓
7. What is the product of 324 and 18? [2]
Answer: (1) 5,832
Working:
324
× 18
-----
2592 (324 × 8)
3240 (324 × 10)
-----
5832
324 × 18 = 324 × (10 + 8) = 3,240 + 2,592 = 5,832.
8. Divide 6,732 by 6. What is the quotient? [2]
Answer: (1) 1,122
Working:
6,732 ÷ 6 = 1,122
Check: 1,122 × 6 = 6,732 ✓
Long division:
6 | 6,732
- 6 (6 × 1 = 6)
07
- 6 (6 × 1 = 6)
---
13
- 12 (6 × 2 = 12)
---
12
- 12 (6 × 2 = 12)
---

9. A number when divided by 8 gives a quotient of 1,245 and a remainder of 3. What is the number? [2]
Answer: (1) 9,963
Working:
Number = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder
Number = (8 × 1,245) + 3
8 × 1,245 = 9,960
9,960 + 3 = 9,963
Check: 9,963 ÷ 8 = 1,245 remainder 3 ✓
10. Which of the following has the same value as 45 × 28? [2]
Answer: (2) 45 × 20 + 45 × 8
Explanation:
Using the distributive property:
45 × 28 = 45 × (20 + 8) = 45 × 20 + 45 × 8
Check:
45 × 20 = 900
45 × 8 = 360
900 + 360 = 1,260
45 × 28 = 1,260 ✓
Option (1): 45 × 20 + 8 = 900 + 8 = 908 ✗
Option (3): 40 × 28 + 5 = 1,120 + 5 = 1,125 ✗
Option (4): 40 × 28 + 5 × 8 = 1,120 + 40 = 1,160 ✗
SECTION B: Short-Answer Questions (25 marks)
11. Write sixty-four thousand and nine in numerals. [1]
Answer: 64,009
Explanation:
"Sixty-four thousand" = 64,000
"and nine" = 9
64,000 + 9 = 64,009
Common mistake: Writing 64,900 or 64,090 (confusing place values).
12. In 83,507, the digit 3 is in the ________________ place. [1]
Answer: thousands
Explanation:
Place values from right: ones (7), tens (0), hundreds (5), thousands (3), ten thousands (8).
13. Round 59,999 to the nearest ten. [1]
Answer: 60,000

Tens digit is 9 → becomes 10, so carry 1 to hundreds.
Hundreds digit is 9 → becomes 10, carry 1 to thousands.
Thousands digit is 9 → becomes 10, carry 1 to ten thousands.
Ten thousands digit is 5 → becomes 6.
Result: 60,000.
14. Find the value of 37,248 + 25,752. [1]
Answer: 63,000
Working:
37,248 + 25,752 = 63,000
(248 + 752 = 1,000; 37,000 + 25,000 + 1,000 = 63,000)
15. Find the value of 90,000 − 48,327. [1]
Answer: 41,673
Working:
90,000
- 48,327
--------
41,673
Check: 41,673 + 48,327 = 90,000 ✓
16. Multiply 406 by 27. [2]
Answer: 10,962
Working:
406
× 27
-----
2842 (406 × 7)
8120 (406 × 20)
-----
10962
406 × 27 = 406 × (20 + 7) = 8,120 + 2,842 = 10,962.
17. Divide 8,547 by 7. [2]
Answer: 1,221
Working:
8,547 ÷ 7 = 1,221
Check: 1,221 × 7 = 8,547 ✓
Long division:
7 | 8,547
- 7 (7 × 1 = 7)
15
- 14 (7 × 2 = 14)
14
- 14 (7 × 2 = 14)
07
- 07 (7 × 1 = 7)

18. Find the value of 245 × 36. [2]
Answer: 8,820
Working:
245
× 36
-----
1470 (245 × 6)
7350 (245 × 30)
-----
8820
245 × 36 = 245 × (30 + 6) = 7,350 + 1,470 = 8,820.
19. A number is 4,500 when rounded to the nearest hundred. What is the greatest possible value of this number? [2]
Answer: 4,549
Explanation:
When rounding to the nearest hundred, numbers from 4,450 to 4,549 round to 4,500.
- 4,450 → hundreds digit 4, tens digit 5 → rounds up to 4,500
- 4,549 → hundreds digit 5, tens digit 4 → rounds down to 4,500
- 4,550 → hundreds digit 5, tens digit 5 → rounds up to 4,600
The greatest possible value is 4,549.
20. Complete the number pattern. [2]
72,500, 71,500, 70,500, __________, 68,500 Answer: 69,500
Explanation:
The pattern decreases by 1,000 each time:
72,500 − 1,000 = 71,500
71,500 − 1,000 = 70,500
70,500 − 1,000 = 69,500
69,500 − 1,000 = 68,500 ✓
SECTION C: Long-Answer / Word Problems (35 marks)
