A digit is one of the symbols of a number system. In our number system we use the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

An integer is any positive or negative whole number or zero. E.g. -2, 0, 153 are all examples of integers.

Deepening understanding of place value in integers

Maths

This unit on place value allows pupils to develop the skills needed to estimate and round values. By understanding the value of each digit, pupils can determine what other values are close to the original value. It continues the exploration of the infinite nature of sets of numbers.

This unit looked at the composition of numbers containing up to 7 digits and how to read these numbers 

In this unit pupils revisit, secure and develop their understanding of place value with integers, decimals, fractions, metric and imperial units. This knowledge is then extended to order and compare numbers of increasing complexity.

Place value

Select a different way of saying 20 hundred thousands

Fill in the missing value:  14 ten thousands is the same as __________ hundreds

Fill in the missing word(s):   230 thousand is the same as 23 __________

Which of these integers are written with correct spacing?

Using the digit cards, make the largest 6-digit integer possible

What is the value of the digit 2 in 324 000?

Starting with the smallest, sort these integers into ascending order.

The smallest integer can be made by swapping the 100s and 10s digits

The value of the integer stays the same if the 1000s and 10s digits are swapped

The value of the integer stays the same if the 100s and 1s digits are swapped

The largest integer can be made by swapping the 1000s and 1s digits

Which statements are true for the integer 3707?
