Answer sheet

1. 60 000 — The 6 is in the ten thousands place, so it is worth 6 × 10 000 = 60 000.
2. 24 056 — Twenty-four thousand is 24 000. There are no hundreds, so we write a zero in the hundreds place, then 56: 24 056.
3. 49 078 — 49 078 and 49 007 both have 49 thousands, which is more than 48 thousands. Comparing the tens, 7 tens is more than 0 tens, so 49 078 is the largest.
4. 54 000 — 53 682 is between 53 000 and 54 000. The hundreds digit is 6, which is 5 or more, so round up to 54 000.
5. 35 207 — 3 ten thousands, 5 thousands, 2 hundreds, 0 tens and 7 ones make 35 207. The zero holds the tens place.
6. 70 000 — 71 450 is between 70 000 and 80 000. The thousands digit is 1, which is 4 or less, so round down to 70 000.
7. 19 950 — Adding 1000 increases the thousands digit by 1: 18 thousand becomes 19 thousand, so the answer is 19 950.
8. 98 631 — Put the largest digit in the place worth the most, then the next largest, and so on: 9, 8, 6, 3, 1 makes 98 631.
