Free practice on Six-Digit Numbers (0–100,000) for Class 5, following the Cameroon primary school curriculum (English subsystem). Every answer is explained, so a parent who is not sure of the answer can still help.
Break the number into 3-digit groups from the right. 47,532 = 47 thousand and 532. Say the thousands first, then hundreds-tens-units.
| Number | In words |
|---|---|
| 12,345 | twelve thousand, three hundred and forty-five |
| 50,000 | fifty thousand |
| 87,209 | eighty-seven thousand, two hundred and nine |
| 100,000 | one hundred thousand |
Places, right to left: Units, Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Ten Thousands, Hundred Thousands. So 62,547 = 6 TTh + 2 Th + 5 H + 4 T + 7 U.
| Number | HTh | TTh | Th | H | T | U |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 62547 | 0 | 6 | 2 | 5 | 4 | 7 |
| Value | 60000 | 2000 | 500 | 40 | 7 |
Number bonds are pairs that make a total. Bonds of 100: 25+75, 40+60, 90+10. Bonds of 1000: 250+750, 400+600. Practising bonds makes mental maths lightning-fast.
| Total | Pairs |
|---|---|
| 100 | 10+90, 25+75, 40+60 |
| 500 | 100+400, 250+250 |
| 1000 | 300+700, 450+550 |
| 10000 | 3000+7000, 5000+5000 |
