1In the number 3,482,056, what is the value of the digit 8?
A.8,000
B.80,000
C.800
D.800,000
Explanation: In 3,482,056, the places from the right are ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands, hundred-thousands, millions. The digit 8 is in the ten-thousands place, so its value is 8 × 10,000 = 80,000.
2Which digit is in the hundred-thousands place in 942,718?
A.4
B.9
C.2
D.7
Explanation: Counting from the right, the places are ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands, hundred-thousands. The hundred-thousands place is the sixth digit from the right, which is 9 (worth 900,000).
3Write 600,000 + 50,000 + 4,000 + 300 + 40 + 2 in standard form.
A.654,342
B.654,324
C.645,342
D.6,543,420
Explanation: Stack the parts by place value: 600,000 + 50,000 = 650,000; plus 4,000 = 654,000; plus 300 = 654,300; plus 40 = 654,340; plus 2 = 654,342.
4Round 473,862 to the nearest ten-thousand.
A.470,000
B.474,000
C.480,000
D.473,000
Explanation: To round to the nearest ten-thousand, look at the thousands digit (3). Because 3 is less than 5, round down, so 473,862 rounds to 470,000.
5Which symbol makes the statement 256,814 ___ 256,841 true?
A.<
B.>
C.=
D.
Explanation: Compare place by place: both have 2 hundred-thousands, 5 ten-thousands, 6 thousands, and 8 hundreds. The tens digit differs: 256,814 has 1 ten and 256,841 has 4 tens, so 256,814 is smaller. Use <.
6Find the sum: 24,386 + 47,519.
A.71,905
B.71,805
C.61,905
D.71,815
Explanation: Add by place: ones 6 + 9 = 15 (write 5, carry 1); tens 8 + 1 + 1 = 10 (write 0, carry 1); hundreds 3 + 5 + 1 = 9; thousands 4 + 7 = 11 (write 1, carry 1); ten-thousands 2 + 4 + 1 = 7. The sum is 71,905.
7Subtract: 50,000 - 18,647.
A.31,353
B.31,463
C.32,353
D.41,353
Explanation: Regroup from left to right: 50,000 becomes 49,999 + 1, then subtract 18,647 to get 31,352 + 1 = 31,353. Checking, 18,647 + 31,353 = 50,000, so the answer is correct.
8Compute 3,748 × 6.
A.22,488
B.22,848
C.21,488
D.22,484
Explanation: Multiply from right to left: 8 × 6 = 48 (write 8, carry 4); 4 × 6 + 4 = 28 (write 8, carry 2); 7 × 6 + 2 = 44 (write 4, carry 4); 3 × 6 + 4 = 22. The product is 22,488.
9Compute 67 × 54.
A.3,618
B.3,628
C.3,518
D.4,618
Explanation: Break it apart: 67 × 50 = 3,350 and 67 × 4 = 268. Add: 3,350 + 268 = 3,618. Checking with partial products, 60 × 54 = 3,240 and 7 × 54 = 378, and 3,240 + 378 = 3,618.
10Find 836 ÷ 4.
A.209
B.219
C.204
D.292
Explanation: Divide in parts: 800 ÷ 4 = 200 and 36 ÷ 4 = 9. Add: 200 + 9 = 209. Checking, 4 × 209 = 836, so the quotient is correct.
