7-digit numbers
Read and write numbers to 10 000 000 and determine the value of each digit

Challenge
1 1 Write the place value of each digit in these numbers.

Example
185 386 = 100 000 + 80 000 + 5000 + 300 + 80 + 6

a 367 912 b 205 936 c 617 483

g 833 639 h 970 275 i 862 206

2 Choose four of the numbers from Question 1 and write them out in words.

Challenge
2 1 Write the place value of each digit in these numbers.

Example
3 753 193 = 3 000 000 + 700 000 + 50 000 + 3000 + 100 + 90 + 3

a 4 872 128 b 1 631 197 c 5 502 472 d 2 378 207

2 Choose four of the numbers from Question 1 and

write them out in words.

Pupil book 6A-U1W1 Final.indd 4 03/11/2014 14:01

 3 Each of these cards represents the place value of a digit in a number.
Make ten 7-digit numbers using these cards.

5 000 000 700 000 200 000 80 000

10 000 6000 4000

300 50 90 6

3 000 000 800 1

Challenge
3 1 Write down ten • the digits are all even
7-digit numbers
• the millions digit is the largest digit
where:
• none of the digits are 8
• the units digits and the
thousands digit are the same.

2 Using the number cards, write ten 7-digit numbers

where the sum of the digits is 30.

3 5 1 2

3 512 694 6 9 4
The sum of these digits is 30 as
3 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 6 + 9 + 4 = 30

3 Using the numbers you made in Question 2, You will need:

play this game with a partner. • 0–9 dice
• Take turns to say a place value, for example, millions.
• Roll the dice. If you have that digit in the chosen place value, cross it out.
• The first player to cross out one whole number is the winner.
