SECTION A: Multiple-Choice Questions (20 marks)

1. Answer: (2) 700 000
The digit 7 is in the hundred thousands place.
Value = 7 × 100 000 = 700 000.

2. Answer: (2) 3 850 000
The ten thousands digit is 4. The digit to its right (thousands) is 7, which is ≥ 5.
Round up: 3 847 256 → 3 850 000.

3. Answer: (1) 5 346 298
Add the place values:
5 000 000 + 300 000 = 5 300 000
5 300 000 + 40 000 = 5 340 000
5 340 000 + 6 000 = 5 346 000
5 346 000 + 200 = 5 346 200
5 346 200 + 90 = 5 346 290
5 346 290 + 8 = 5 346 298

4. Answer: (2) 720
Order of operations (BODMAS):
Brackets first: 45 + 55 = 100
Then: 72 × 100 = 7 200
Then: 7 200 ÷ 10 = 720

5. Answer: (1) 25 350
February production = 3 × 8 450
= 25 350

6. Answer: (1) 80 000
Sum of known parts: 6 000 000 + 400 000 + 5 000 + 300 + 20 + 7 = 6 405 327
Missing part = 6 485 327 − 6 405 327 = 80 000

7. Answer: (3) 6
5 678 ÷ 8 = 709 remainder 6
Check: 709 × 8 = 5 672; 5 678 − 5 672 = 6

8. Answer: (3) 24 549
When rounding to nearest hundred, numbers from 24 450 to 24 549 round to 24 500.
24 449 rounds to 24 400.
24 550 rounds to 24 600.

9. Answer: (2) 270 000
4 500 × 60 = 4 500 × 6 × 10 = 27 000 × 10 = 270 000

10. Answer: (1) 432
3 456 ÷ 8 = 432

SECTION B: Short-Answer Questions (25 marks)

11. Answer: Seven million, eighty-five thousand, four hundred and two
[2 marks: 1 mark for correct millions/thousands grouping, 1 mark for correct wording]
Teaching note: Use commas to separate groups of three digits from the right: 7,085,402. Read each group with its place value name.

12. Answer: 4 052 318, 4 502 318, 4 502 813, 4 520 318
[2 marks]
Method: Compare digits from left to right (millions → hundred thousands → ten thousands → thousands → hundreds → tens → ones).

13. Answer: 120
[2 marks: 1 mark for method, 1 mark for answer]
8 400 ÷ 70 = 840 ÷ 7 = 120
Teaching note: Cancel zeros from both numbers to simplify division.

14. Answer: 3 549
[2 marks]
Numbers rounding to 3 500 (nearest hundred) range from 3 450 to 3 549.
Greatest possible = 3 549.

15. Answer: 25 200
[2 marks]
63 × 400 = 63 × 4 × 100 = 252 × 100 = 25 200

16. Answer: 2 350 000
[2 marks]
Pattern decreases by 50 000 each time:
2 500 000 − 50 000 = 2 450 000
2 450 000 − 50 000 = 2 400 000
2 400 000 − 50 000 = 2 350 000

17. Answer: 25 968
[2 marks: 1 mark for working, 1 mark for answer]

   4 3 2 8
×        6
---------
  2 5 9 6 8

18. Answer: 840
[2 marks: 1 mark for working, 1 mark for answer]
7 560 ÷ 9 = 840
Check: 840 × 9 = 7 560

19. Answer: 41 235
[2 marks: 1 mark for working, 1 mark for answer]
50 000 − 8 765 = 41 235
Teaching note: Subtract from left to right with regrouping, or use complement method: 50 000 − 8 765 = (49 999 − 8 765) + 1 = 41 234 + 1 = 41 235.

20. Answer: 7 474
[2 marks: 1 mark for method, 1 mark for answer]
Number = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder
= (6 × 1 245) + 4
= 7 470 + 4
= 7 474

21. Answer: 14 612
[3 marks: 1 mark for multiplication, 1 mark for addition, 1 mark for final answer]
Order of operations: Multiplication before addition.
2 789 × 4 = 11 156
3 456 + 11 156 = 14 612

22. Answer: 18 320
[3 marks: 1 mark for Chinese books, 1 mark for total, 1 mark for final answer]
Chinese books = 3 × 4 580 = 13 740
Total books = 4 580 + 13 740 = 18 320

23. **Answer: $1 817.50** [3 marks: 1 mark for total spent, 1 mark for remaining, 1 mark for division] Total spent =$3 450 + $1 280 =$4 730
Remaining = $12 000 −$4 730 = $7 270 Each child =$7 270 ÷ 4 = $1 817.50

24. Answer: 80
[3 marks: 1 mark for method, 1 mark for division, 1 mark for answer]
Other number = 48 000 ÷ 600 = 480 ÷ 6 = 80
Check: 600 × 80 = 48 000 ✓

25. Answer: 1 368
[3 marks: 1 mark for yellow beads, 1 mark for difference, 1 mark for final answer]
Red + Blue = 2 345 + 1 567 = 3 912
Yellow beads = 5 280 − 3 912 = 1 368
Difference (Yellow − Blue) = 1 368 − 1 567 = −199? Wait, let me recalculate.
Yellow = 5 280 − 2 345 − 1 567 = 1 368
Blue = 1 567
Yellow − Blue = 1 368 − 1 567 = −199? That means fewer yellow than blue.
Question asks: "How many more yellow beads than blue beads?"
Since yellow (1 368) < blue (1 567), there are 199 fewer yellow beads.
But the question phrasing "how many more" implies a positive difference. Let me re-read: "How many more yellow beads than blue beads are there?"
Answer: There are 199 fewer yellow beads than blue beads, or the difference is 199 (blue has more).
Correction: The question likely expects the absolute difference: 199. But "how many more yellow than blue" when yellow < blue is tricky. Let me check the numbers again.
5 280 − 2 345 − 1 567 = 1 368 yellow.
Blue = 1 567.
1 368 < 1 567, so yellow has 199 fewer.
The question asks "How many more yellow beads than blue beads?" → Answer: 199 fewer (or -199).
Marking note: Accept "199 fewer" or "199 less" or "Blue has 199 more".

SECTION C: Structured / Long-Answer Questions (35 marks)

26. [4 marks]
(a) Tuesday: 12 450 − 3 780 = 8 670 bottles [1 mark]
(b) Wednesday: 2 × 8 670 = 17 340 bottles [1 mark]
(c) Total: 12 450 + 8 670 + 17 340 = 38 460 bottles [2 marks: 1 for addition, 1 for answer]
Alternative: Total = Monday + Tuesday + 2×Tuesday = 12 450 + 3×8 670 = 12 450 + 26 010 = 38 460

27. [4 marks]
Total apples = 8 × 24 = 192 [1 mark]
Remaining after giving away = 192 − 45 = 147 [1 mark]
Apples per bag = 147 ÷ 9 = 16 apples [2 marks: 1 for division, 1 for answer]
Check: 16 × 9 = 144, remainder 3? Wait: 147 ÷ 9 = 16 remainder 3. But the question says "packed the remaining apples equally into 9 bags". This implies exact division. Let me recalculate: 8 × 24 = 192. 192 − 45 = 147. 147 ÷ 9 = 16.333... Not a whole number. This is a problem.
Correction: The question should have numbers that divide evenly. Let me adjust the answer key to reflect the intended solution path, noting the issue.
Actually, 147 ÷ 9 = 16 R3. The question says "packed equally", which might mean each bag gets 16 and 3 left over, or the question has a typo. In PSLE-style questions, "packed equally" usually implies exact division. I'll provide the working as intended and note the remainder.
Revised Answer: 16 apples in each bag (with 3 apples left over)
[Marking: 1 mark total apples, 1 mark remaining, 1 mark division, 1 mark answer with remainder noted]

28. [5 marks]
(a) Saturday occupied = $\frac{3}{5} \times 45 000 = 27 000$ seats [1 mark]
(b) Sunday occupied = 27 000 + 2 500 = 29 500 seats [1 mark]
(c) Sunday not occupied = 45 000 − 29 500 = 15 500 seats [2 marks: 1 for subtraction, 1 for answer]
Alternative for (c): Not occupied on Saturday = 45 000 − 27 000 = 18 000. Sunday not occupied = 18 000 − 2 500 = 15 500.

29. [4 marks]
First number = 4 200 [1 mark]
Second number = 3 × 4 200 = 12 600 [1 mark]
First + Second = 4 200 + 12 600 = 16 800 [1 mark]
Third number = 18 500 − 16 800 = 1 700 [1 mark]
Check: 4 200 + 12 600 + 1 700 = 18 500 ✓

30. [5 marks]
(a) Pens sold = 4 850 + 3 720 = 8 570 [1 mark]
Pens left = 15 600 − 8 570 = 7 030 pens [1 mark]
(b) Boxes packed = 7 030 ÷ 25 = 281 boxes [2 marks: 1 for division, 1 for answer]
25 × 281 = 7 025
(c) Pens left unpacked = 7 030 − 7 025 = 5 pens [1 mark]
Check: 281 × 25 + 5 = 7 025 + 5 = 7 030 ✓

COMMON MISTAKES TO WATCH

1. Place value errors: Confusing hundred thousands vs millions, misreading zeros in large numbers.
2. Rounding: Forgetting to check the digit to the right; rounding down when should round up.
3. Order of operations: Doing addition before multiplication/division.
4. Division with remainder: Forgetting to include remainder in final answer or misinterpreting "packed equally".
5. Multi-step word problems: Missing a step (e.g., finding remainder before dividing).
6. Fraction of a quantity: Multiplying incorrectly or forgetting to subtract from total.
7. Units: Omitting units ($, pens, bottles, etc.) in final answers.
