Primary 6 PSLE Mathematics Quiz — Answer Key

Topic: Whole Numbers


Section A: Numbers to 10 Million and Place Value

1. 3,405,208
    Working: 3,000,000 + 405,000 + 200 + 8 = 3,405,208.
    [1 mark]


2. 60,000
    Working: The digit 6 is in the ten-thousands place. 6 × 10,000 = 60,000.
    [1 mark]


3. 4,502,010, 4,502,100, 4,520,010, 4,520,100
    Working: Compare digit by digit from the left. All start with 4,5. The third digit from the left (thousands place) distinguishes them: 0 < 2, and within each group, 010 < 100.
    [2 marks — 1 mark for correct order, 1 mark for all four correct]


4. 3,800,000
    Working: The hundred-thousands digit is 7. The ten-thousands digit is 8 (≥ 5), so round up: 3,700,000 → 3,800,000.
    [1 mark]


5. 60,000
    Working: 5,000,000 + 300,000 + ___ + 40 + 6 = 5,360,046. The missing place is the ten-thousands place. 5,360,046 − 5,300,046 = 60,000.
    [1 mark]


Section B: Factors, Multiples, and Prime Numbers

6. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
    Working: Find all pairs that multiply to 36: 1×36, 2×18, 3×12, 4×9, 6×6.
    [2 marks — 1 mark for at least 6 correct factors, 2 marks for all 9]


7. 15, 30, 45, 60, 75
    Working: 15×1=15, 15×2=30, 15×3=45, 15×4=60, 15×5=75.
    [2 marks — 1 mark for first three correct, 2 marks for all five]


8. 23
    Working: 21 = 3×7 (not prime), 23 has only factors 1 and 23 (prime), 25 = 5×5 (not prime), 27 = 3×9 (not prime).
    [1 mark]


9. 12
    Working: Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24. Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36. Common factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12. Highest = 12.
    Alternative: Prime factorisation: 24 = 2³×3, 36 = 2²×3². HCF = 2²×3 = 12.
    [2 marks — 1 for method, 1 for correct answer]


10. 24
    Working: Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30… Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32… Lowest common = 24.
    Alternative: LCM = (6×8) / HCF(6,8) = 48/2 = 24.
    [2 marks — 1 for method, 1 for correct answer]


Section C: Order of Operations

11. 108
    Working: Multiplication first: 12 × 5 = 60. Then addition: 48 + 60 = 108.
    [2 marks — 1 for correct order, 1 for correct answer]


12. 21
    Working: Brackets first: 72 − 24 = 48. Then division: 48 ÷ 8 = 6. Then addition: 6 + 15 = 21.
    [2 marks — 1 for correct order, 1 for correct answer]


13. 30
    Working: Brackets first: 14 + 6 = 20. Then multiplication: 6 × 20 = 120. Then subtraction: 150 − 120 = 30.
    [2 marks — 1 for correct order, 1 for correct answer]


14. 125
    Working: Brackets first: 3 + 2 = 5. Then division and multiplication left to right: 200 ÷ 5 = 40; 40 × 4 = 160. Then subtraction: 160 − 35 = 125.
    [2 marks — 1 for correct order, 1 for correct answer]


15. (18 + 6) × 3 − 4 = 68
    Working: (18 + 6) = 24; 24 × 3 = 72; 72 − 4 = 68. ✓
    [2 marks — 1 for correct bracket placement, 1 for verification]


Section D: Word Problems

16. 564,050 toys
    Working: 245,600 + 318,450 = 564,050.
    [2 marks — 1 for correct operation, 1 for correct answer]


17. 52 students
    Working: 1,248 ÷ 24 = 52.
    [2 marks — 1 for correct operation, 1 for correct answer]


18. 40 oranges
    Working: Total oranges = 15 × 24 = 360. Oranges per bag = 360 ÷ 9 = 40.
    [3 marks — 1 for finding total, 1 for correct division, 1 for final answer with unit]


19. 44,970 books
    Working: After donation: 56,300 + 12,450 = 68,750. After lending: 68,750 − 23,780 = 44,970.
    [3 marks — 1 for addition step, 1 for subtraction step, 1 for final answer with unit]


20.
    (a) 4,235,000
        Working: 2,450,000 + 1,785,000 = 4,235,000.
        [1 mark]

    (b) 5,185,000
        Working: 4,235,000 + 950,000 = 5,185,000.
        [2 marks — 1 for using answer from (a), 1 for correct final answer]


Total: 40 marks

Marking Notes

  • Award method marks where working is shown even if the final answer is incorrect, provided the method is valid.
  • For questions requiring units, the final answer mark is only awarded if the unit is stated.
  • Common mistakes to watch for:
    • Q11–14: Students who work left-to-right without following BODMAS/PEMDAS.
    • Q6: Missing factors (commonly 9 or 18 omitted).
    • Q18: Forgetting to find the total before dividing.
    • Q20(b): Students who ignore part (a) and attempt an incorrect independent calculation.
