Mathematics Primary 5 — Whole Numbers (Version 3 of 5)
Section A: Short Answer Questions (20 marks)
1. Write in numerals: Five million, two hundred and three thousand, six hundred and eight
Answer: 5,203,600
Working:
- Five million = 5,000,000
- Two hundred and three thousand = 203,000
- Six hundred and eight = 608
- Combined: 5,000,000 + 203,000 + 608 = 5,203,600
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for the correct numeral. Award 1 mark if the student writes the correct digits but omits commas or makes a minor place-value error (e.g., 5,230,600).
2. Place value of digit 7 in 4,738,215
Answer: 700,000 (seven hundred thousand)
Working:
- 4,738,215 broken down by place value:
- 4 → millions (4,000,000)
- 7 → hundred thousands (700,000)
- 3 → ten thousands (30,000)
- 8 → thousands (8,000)
- 2 → hundreds (200)
- 1 → tens (10)
- 5 → ones (5)
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for "700,000" or "hundred thousand". Accept either form.
3. Arrange in ascending order: 3,450,600 | 3,045,600 | 3,405,600 | 3,540,060
Answer: 3,045,600, 3,405,600, 3,450,600, 3,540,060
Working:
- All numbers have 3 millions, so compare the hundred thousands digit:
- 3,045,600 → 0 hundred thousands (smallest)
- 3,405,600 → 4 hundred thousands, 0 ten thousands
- 3,450,600 → 4 hundred thousands, 5 ten thousands
- 3,540,060 → 5 hundred thousands (largest)
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for the correct order. Award 1 mark if two adjacent numbers are swapped.
4. Round 6,784,329 to the nearest hundred thousand.
Answer: 6,800,000
Working:
- The hundred thousands digit is 7 (i.e., 700,000).
- The next digit (ten thousands) is 8, which is ≥ 5, so we round up.
- 6,700,000 → round up → 6,800,000
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 6,800,000. Common mistake: writing 6,780,000 (rounded to nearest ten thousand instead) — award 0 marks.
5. 8,500,000 = 8 million + ________ thousands
Answer: 500
Working:
- 8 million = 8,000,000
- 8,500,000 − 8,000,000 = 500,000
- 500,000 = 500 thousands
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 500. Common mistake: writing 500,000 (confusing the unit "thousands" with the value) — award 0 marks.
6. Largest 7-digit number using digits: 3, 0, 8, 5, 2, 9, 1
Answer: 9,853,210
Working:
- Arrange digits in descending order: 9, 8, 5, 3, 2, 1, 0
- Form the number: 9,853,210
- Note: 0 must not be placed in the first position (that would give a 6-digit number).
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 9,853,210. Award 1 mark if the student uses all digits correctly but makes one transposition error.
7. 250 × 600 =
Answer: 150,000
Working:
- 250 × 600 = 250 × 6 × 100
- 250 × 6 = 1,500
- 1,500 × 100 = 150,000
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 150,000. Award 1 mark for correct method with arithmetic error.
8. 7,200 ÷ 8 =
Answer: 900
Working:
- 7,200 ÷ 8
- 72 ÷ 8 = 9, so 7,200 ÷ 8 = 900
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 900.
9. 48 + 15 × 4 − 36 ÷ 6
Answer: 102
Working (BODMAS):
- Step 1 — Multiplication: 15 × 4 = 60
- Step 2 — Division: 36 ÷ 6 = 6
- Step 3 — Addition and subtraction from left to right:
- 48 + 60 = 108
- 108 − 6 = 102
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 102. Award 1 mark if the student applies BODMAS partially correctly (e.g., gets multiplication right but adds before subtracting incorrectly). Common mistake: working strictly left to right without BODMAS → 48 + 15 = 63, × 4 = 252, − 36 = 216, ÷ 6 = 36 (incorrect).
10. A factory produced 4,500 toys/day for 30 days. Packed into boxes of 9. How many boxes?
Answer: 15,000 boxes
Working:
- Total toys = 4,500 × 30 = 135,000
- Number of boxes = 135,000 ÷ 9 = 15,000
[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 15,000. Award 1 mark for correct method with one arithmetic error.
Section B: Short Answer & Application (12 marks)

[2 marks] — Award 2 marks for 3,331,110. Award 1 mark for correct addition setup with minor arithmetic error.
(b) Total population of both towns:
Answer: 5,676,788
Working:
- 2,345,678 + 3,331,110 = 5,676,788
- (Or: 2,345,678 × 2 + 985,432 = 4,691,356 + 985,432 = 5,676,788)
[1 mark] — Award 1 mark for 5,676,788. Accept follow-through from part (a) if the method is correct.

[1 mark]
(b) In words:
Answer: Six million, forty-nine thousand, three hundred and seven
[1 mark] — Must be fully correct. Accept "six million forty-nine thousand three hundred seven" (without "and").
(c) Round to nearest ten thousand:
Answer: 6,050,000
Working:
- The ten thousands digit is 4 (40,000).
- The next digit (thousands) is 9, which is ≥ 5, so round up.
- 6,049,307 → 6,050,000
[1 mark]
13. Books sold:
| Month | Books Sold |
|---|---|
| January | 125,430 |

[1 mark]
(b) How many more in March than February:
Answer: 44,515
Working: 143,280 − 98,765 = 44,515
[1 mark]
(c) Total rounded to nearest thousand:
Answer: 480,000
Working:
- Total = 125,430 + 98,765 + 143,280 + 112,590 = 480,065
- Round 480,065 to nearest thousand: the hundreds digit is 0, so round down → 480,000
[1 mark]

(a) Value of each digit 5:
First 5: 5,000,000 (five million) Second 5: 5,000 (five thousand)
Working:
- First 5 is in the millions place → 5 × 1,000,000 = 5,000,000
- Second 5 is in the thousands place → 5 × 1,000 = 5,000
[1 mark] — Both values must be correct.
