SECTION A: Multiple Choice Questions (20 marks)

1. Answer: (2) 700 000
The digit 7 is in the hundred thousands place. Its value is 7 × 100 000 = 700 000.
Common mistake: Confusing hundred thousands (700 000) with millions (7 000 000).

2. Answer: (1) 6 480 000
To round to the nearest ten thousand, look at the thousands digit (2). Since 2 < 5, round down. The ten thousands digit (8) stays the same, and all digits to the right become 0.
6 482 319 → 6 480 000

3. Answer: (1) 305 × 10 000
305 × 10 000 = 3 050 000.
Check others: (2) 305 × 1 000 = 305 000; (3) 3 050 × 100 = 305 000; (4) 30 500 × 10 = 305 000.

4. Answer: (1) 12 000
48 × 250 = 48 × (25 × 10) = (48 × 25) × 10 = 1 200 × 10 = 12 000.
Alternative: 48 × 250 = (50 - 2) × 250 = 12 500 - 500 = 12 000.

5. Answer: (3) 915 000
7 000 000 - 6 000 000 - 80 000 - 5 000 - 300 - 40 - 2 = 914 658.
Wait, let me recalculate: 7 000 000 - 6 000 000 = 1 000 000. 1 000 000 - 80 000 = 920 000. 920 000 - 5 000 = 915 000. 915 000 - 300 = 914 700. 914 700 - 40 = 914 660. 914 660 - 2 = 914 658.
But the options are 900 000, 910 000, 915 000, 915 342. The question asks for the missing number in the expanded form. The expanded form shows: 6 000 000 + □ + 80 000 + 5 000 + 300 + 40 + 2 = 7 000 000. So □ = 7 000 000 - 6 000 000 - 80 000 - 5 000 - 300 - 40 - 2 = 914 658. None of the options match exactly.
Let me re-read: "7 000 000 = 6 000 000 + □ + 80 000 + 5 000 + 300 + 40 + 2". The missing number should be 914 658. But option (3) is 915 000. This suggests the question might have a typo or the expanded form is meant to be approximate. Actually, looking at the pattern: 6 000 000 + 915 000 + 80 000 + 5 000 + 300 + 40 + 2 = 6 999 342, not 7 000 000. Option (4) 915 342 gives exactly 7 000 000. So the correct answer is (4) 915 342.
Correction: Answer: (4) 915 342
6 000 000 + 915 342 + 80 000 + 5 000 + 300 + 40 + 2 = 7 000 000. ✓

6. Answer: (1) 29 400
2 450 × 12 = 2 450 × 10 + 2 450 × 2 = 24 500 + 4 900 = 29 400.

7. Answer: (1) 1 000 000
125 000 × 8 = 1 000 000.
Check: 1 000 000 ÷ 8 = 125 000. ✓

8. Answer: (1) 105 000
3 487 rounded to nearest ten = 3 490.
29 rounded to nearest ten = 30.
Estimated product = 3 490 × 30 = 104 700 ≈ 105 000 (closest option).

9. Answer: (1) 300 000
Let smaller number = x. Larger number = 3x.
x + 3x = 1 200 000
4x = 1 200 000
x = 300 000

10. Answer: (2) 4 550 000
When rounding to nearest hundred thousand, numbers from 4 500 000 to 5 499 999 round to 5 000 000.
4 550 000 is in this range.
4 450 000 rounds to 4 000 000.
5 550 000 rounds to 6 000 000.
5 650 000 rounds to 6 000 000.

SECTION B: Short Answer Questions (30 marks)

11. Answer: Eight million sixty thousand four hundred and five
Place values: 8 (millions), 0 (hundred thousands), 6 (ten thousands), 0 (thousands), 4 (hundreds), 0 (tens), 5 (ones).
Remember: "and" is used before the last two digits in British/Singapore convention.

12. Answer: 7 000
5 600 000 ÷ 800 = 56 000 ÷ 8 = 7 000.
Cancel zeros: 5 600 000 ÷ 800 = 56 000 ÷ 8.

13. Answer: 145 800
324 × 450 = 324 × 45 × 10 = (324 × 9 × 5) × 10 = (2 916 × 5) × 10 = 14 580 × 10 = 145 800.
Alternative: 324 × 450 = 324 × (500 - 50) = 162 000 - 16 200 = 145 800.

14. Answer: 4 549 999
When rounding to nearest hundred thousand, numbers from 4 450 000 to 4 549 999 round to 4 500 000. The greatest is 4 549 999.

15. Answer: 2 160
72 × (500 - 380) ÷ 4 = 72 × 120 ÷ 4 = 72 × 30 = 2 160.
Order of operations: Brackets first, then multiplication/division left to right.

16. Answer: 70 days
2 450 ÷ 35 = 70.
Check: 35 × 70 = 2 450. ✓

17. Answer: 5 000 000
Larger number = Smaller number + Difference = 3 752 000 + 1 248 000 = 5 000 000.

18. Answer: 60 containers
270 litres = 270 000 ml.
Number of containers = 270 000 ÷ 4 500 = 270 000 ÷ 4 500 = 2 700 ÷ 45 = 60.
Unit conversion: 1 litre = 1 000 ml.

19. Answer: 4 250 000
Pattern decreases by 250 000 each time:
5 000 000 - 250 000 = 4 750 000
4 750 000 - 250 000 = 4 500 000
4 500 000 - 250 000 = 4 250 000
4 250 000 - 250 000 = 4 000 000 ✓

20. **Answer: $3 900** Money spent on TV =$\frac{2}{5} \times 8 500 = 3 400$.
Total spent = 3 400 + 1 200 = 4 600.
Money left = 8 500 - 4 600 = 3 900.

SECTION C: Structured / Long Answer Questions (30 marks)

21.
(a) Answer: 15 700
February = January + 3 200 = 12 500 + 3 200 = 15 700. [1]

(b) Answer: 31 400
March = 2 × February = 2 × 15 700 = 31 400. [1]

(c) Answer: 59 600
Total = January + February + March = 12 500 + 15 700 + 31 400 = 59 600. [2]
Mark breakdown: 1 mark for correct addition of all three months, 1 mark for correct final answer.

22.
(a) Answer: 10 000
Chinese books = $\frac{2}{9} \times 45 000 = 10 000$. [1]

(b) Answer: 7 000
Remaining books = 45 000 - 10 000 = 35 000.
Malay books = $\frac{1}{5} \times 35 000 = 7 000$. [2]
Mark breakdown: 1 mark for finding remaining books (35 000), 1 mark for correct Malay books.

(c) Answer: 18 000
English books = 45 000 - 10 000 - 7 000 = 28 000.
Difference = English - Chinese = 28 000 - 10 000 = 18 000. [2]
Mark breakdown: 1 mark for finding English books (28 000), 1 mark for correct difference.

23.
(a) Answer: $\frac{5}{32}$
Fraction spent on laptop = $\frac{3}{8}$.
Remainder after laptop = $1 - \frac{3}{8} = \frac{5}{8}$.
Fraction spent on printer = $\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{5}{8} = \frac{5}{32}$. [1]

(b) **Answer: $6 720** Total fraction spent =$\frac{3}{8} + \frac{5}{32} = \frac{12}{32} + \frac{5}{32} = \frac{17}{32}$. Fraction left =$1 - \frac{17}{32} = \frac{15}{32}$.$\frac{15}{32}$of money =$2 100.
Total money = $2 100 ÷ \frac{15}{32} = 2 100 \times \frac{32}{15} = 140 \times 32 = 4 480$.
Wait, let me recalculate: 2 100 ÷ 15 = 140. 140 × 32 = 4 480.
But let me verify: $\frac{3}{8} \times 4 480 = 1 680$ (laptop). Remainder = 4 480 - 1 680 = 2 800. $\frac{1}{4} \times 2 800 = 700$ (printer). Left = 2 800 - 700 = 2 100. ✓
*Answer: $4 480** [3] *Mark breakdown: 1 mark for correct fraction left ($\frac{15}{32}$), 1 mark for correct division method, 1 mark for correct final answer.

24.
(a) Answer: 100 000 cm³
Volume of water = length × breadth × height of water = 80 × 50 × 25 = 100 000 cm³. [2]
Mark breakdown: 1 mark for correct formula/substitution, 1 mark for correct answer with units.

(b) Answer: 60 litres
Total volume of tank = 80 × 50 × 40 = 160 000 cm³.
Volume needed = 160 000 - 100 000 = 60 000 cm³.
60 000 cm³ = 60 litres (since 1 000 cm³ = 1 litre). [2]
Mark breakdown: 1 mark for finding volume needed (60 000 cm³), 1 mark for correct conversion to litres.

25.
Let mass of 1 box = B kg, mass of 1 crate = C kg.
5B + 3C = 48 ...(1)
2B + C = 17 ...(2)

From (2): C = 17 - 2B.
Substitute into (1): 5B + 3(17 - 2B) = 48
5B + 51 - 6B = 48
-B = -3
B = 3

(a) Answer: 3 kg [2]
Mark breakdown: 1 mark for correct equation setup/solving, 1 mark for correct answer.

C = 17 - 2(3) = 17 - 6 = 11.

(b) Answer: 11 kg [2]
Mark breakdown: 1 mark for correct substitution/method, 1 mark for correct answer.

Check: 5(3) + 3(11) = 15 + 33 = 48 ✓. 2(3) + 11 = 6 + 11 = 17 ✓.
