Question 6 – Order the numbers [2 pts]

020,00040,00060,00080,000100,000AB
A is at 35,000 and B is at 80,000.

\(471,035\) has 7 in the ten thousands place, so it is greatest. \(407,531\) has 0 there, so it is least.

Compare \(417,305\) and \(417,035\): hundreds 3 and 0.

\(471,035\), \(417,305\), \(417,035\), \(407,531\)

Scoring: 2 points for the correct order. 1 point if only one pair is swapped.

Question 7 – Number line [3 pts]

  3. The two 8s sit in different places. A digit one place to the left is worth ten times as much, so the digits have different values.

Scoring: 1 point for each part. Part c needs a mention of different places or ten times.

Question 9 – Farmers market totals [2 pts]

Word form: one hundred fifty-two thousand, eight hundred forty.

One tenth: \(152{,}840 \div 10 = 15{,}284\).
