SA2 (Version 5 of 5) — Answer Key


Section A: Multiple Choice Questions (10 marks)

1. What is the value of the digit 7 in the number 3,708,452?

Answer: (D) 700,000 [1]

Working: The digit 7 is in the hundred thousands place. 3,708,452 → 7 × 100,000 = 700,000


2. Round 4,567,891 to the nearest hundred thousand.

Answer: (C) 4,600,000 [1]

Working: The hundred thousands digit is 5. The ten thousands digit is 6 (≥ 5), so we round up. 4,567,891 → 4,600,000


3. Which of the following is the smallest number?

Answer: (C) 2,009,999 [1]

Working: All numbers start with 2 million. Compare the next digits:

  • (A) 2,099,999 → hundred thousands digit = 9
  • (B) 2,100,001 → hundred thousands digit = 1 (but ten thousands = 0, thousands = 0)
  • (C) 2,009,999 → hundred thousands digit = 0, ten thousands = 0, thousands = 9
  • (D) 2,010,000 → hundred thousands digit = 0, ten thousands = 1

Comparing (C) and (D): 2,009,999 vs 2,010,000 → 2,009,999 is smaller.


4. 8,000,000 ÷ 1,000 = ?

Answer: (B) 8,000 [1]

Working: 8,000,000 ÷ 1,000 = 8,000 (remove 3 zeros)


5. Write "nine million, three hundred five thousand and sixty-two" in numerals.

Answer: (B) 9,305,062 [1]

Working: Nine million = 9,000,000; three hundred five thousand = 305,000; sixty-two = 62. 9,000,000 + 305,000 + 62 = 9,305,062


6. What is 10,000 more than 5,498,237?

Answer: (A) 5,508,237 [1]

Working: 5,498,237 + 10,000 = 5,508,237


7. The product of 2,500 × 400 is:

Answer: (C) 1,000,000 [1]

Working: 2,500 × 400 = 25 × 100 × 4 × 100 = 25 × 4 × 10,000 = 100 × 10,000 = 1,000,000


8. Which number is 100,000 less than 7,000,000?

Answer: (A) 6,900,000 [1]

Working: 7,000,000 − 100,000 = 6,900,000


9. Arrange from greatest to least: 3,456,789 | 3,465,789 | 3,456,879

Answer: (B) 3,465,789, 3,456,879, 3,456,789 [1]

Working: All start with 3,45_. Compare the thousands digit:

  • 3,465,789 → thousands digit = 6 (greatest)
  • 3,456,879 → thousands digit = 5, hundreds = 8
  • 3,456,789 → thousands digit = 5, hundreds = 7

Between the last two: 3,456,879 > 3,456,789 (since 879 > 789).


10. A factory produced 1,250,000 toys in January and 2,750,000 toys in February. How many in total (in millions)?

Answer: (C) 4 million [1]

Working: 1,250,000 + 2,750,000 = 4,000,000 = 4 million


Section B: Short Answer Questions (20 marks)

11. Write in numerals.

(a) Six million, two hundred thousand and forty-eight

Answer: 6,200,048 [1]

Working: 6,000,000 + 200,000 + 48 = 6,200,048


(b) Four million, eight hundred six thousand, five hundred and three

Answer: 4,806,503 [1]

Working: 4,000,000 + 806,000 + 500 + 3 = 4,806,503

Answer: 4,000,000, 4,250,000 [2]

Working: The pattern increases by 250,000 each time. 3,750,000 + 250,000 = 4,000,000 4,000,000 + 250,000 = 4,250,000

Marking: 1 mark for each correct term.


(b) 9,999,990, 9,999,980, 9,999,970, __________, __________

Answer: 9,999,960, 9,999,950 [2]

Working: The pattern decreases by 10 each time. 9,999,970 − 10 = 9,999,960 9,999,960 − 10 = 9,999,950

Marking: 1 mark for each correct term.


14. Find the value.

(a) 6,000,000 ÷ 10,000

Answer: 600 [1]

Working: 6,000,000 ÷ 10,000 = 6,000,000 ÷ 10⁴ = 600


(b) 45,000 × 100

Answer: 4,500,000 [1]

Working: 45,000 × 100 = 45,000 × 10² = 4,500,000


(c) 7,200,000 ÷ 1,000 × 10

Answer: 72,000 [1]

Working: 7,200,000 ÷ 1,000 = 7,200; then 7,200 × 10 = 72,000

Common mistake: Students may multiply before dividing. Correct order: left to right for same-level operations.


15. Population problem.

(a) New population

Answer: 4,612,995 [2]

Working: Starting population: 4,567,890 People moved in: + 234,567 People moved out: − 189,432

4,567,890 + 234,567 = 4,802,457 4,802,457 − 189,432 = 4,613,025

Correction: 4,567,890 + 234,567 = 4,802,457 4,802,457 − 189,432 = 4,613,025

Answer: 4,613,025 [2]

Marking: 1 mark for correct addition step, 1 mark for correct final answer.


(b) Round to nearest million.

Answer: 5,000,000 (or 5 million) [1]

Working: 4,613,025 → The hundred thousands digit is 6 (≥ 5), so round up to 5,000,000.


Section C: Structured / Problem-Sum Questions (20 marks)

16. Donation collection.

(a) Total amount collected

Answer: $477,635 [2]

Working: 125,430+125,430 + 98,765 + 142,890+142,890 + 110,550

Step 1: 125,430+125,430 + 98,765 = 224,195Step2:224,195 Step 2: 142,890 + 110,550=110,550 = 253,440 Step 3: 224,195+224,195 + 253,440 = $477,635

Marking: 1 mark for correct method/working, 1 mark for correct answer.


(b) Round each to nearest ten thousand and find estimated total.

Answer: $480,000 [2]

Working:

  • 5A: 125,430nearesttenthousand=125,430 → nearest ten thousand = 130,000 (thousands digit 5, round up)
  • 5B: 98,765nearesttenthousand=98,765 → nearest ten thousand = 100,000 (thousands digit 8, round up)
  • 5C: 142,890nearesttenthousand=142,890 → nearest ten thousand = 140,000 (thousands digit 2, round down)
  • 5D: 110,550nearesttenthousand=110,550 → nearest ten thousand = 110,000 (thousands digit 0, round down)

Estimated total: 130,000+130,000 + 100,000 + 140,000+140,000 + 110,000 = $480,000

Marking: 1 mark for correct rounding of all four values, 1 mark for correct estimated total.


17. Book printing.

(a) Books printed in second half

Answer: 5,625,000 [2]

Working: Compare digit by digit from the left. All are 7-digit numbers starting with different millions digits: 1 < 2 < 2 < 3. For the two starting with 2: 2,345,678 < 2,765,432 (since 3 < 7 in the hundred thousands place).

Marking: 1 mark for correct order, 1 mark for all four in correct positions.


(c) Difference between greatest and least

Answer: 1,114,802 [2]

Working: 3,102,456 − 1,987,654 = 1,114,802
