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)

(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.


12. Number with:

[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:

MonthBooks Sold
January125,430
February98,765

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.
