Numbers to 1,000,000
Practise large place-value notation, comparing six-digit numbers, doubling, halving, and simple mental multiplication.
How to solve this
- Six-digit numbers are easier to read in groups: 458,236 is 458 thousand and 236.
- Expanded form shows whether every place was understood: 458,236 = 400,000 + 50,000 + 8,000 + 200 + 30 + 6.
- Mental tasks often use the same structure: 480,000 ÷ 6 works because 48 ÷ 6 = 8, then the thousands stay.
