Step-by-step solution for: Place Value Problems (Year 6) | CGP Plus
Here are the solutions to the place value problems on your worksheet.
We need to look at the digits from left to right (starting with the biggest place value) to see which number is larger.
1. 215 434 vs 215 443: The first five digits are the same. Look at the ones place: 3 is less than 4. So, the first number is smaller.
* Answer: <
2. 450 876 vs 405 876: Look at the ten thousands place. 5 is bigger than 0. So, the first number is bigger.
* Answer: >
3. 135 050 vs 135 500: Look at the hundreds place. 0 is less than 5. So, the first number is smaller.
* Answer: <
4. 1 780 120 vs 1 078 120: Look at the hundred thousands place. 7 is bigger than 0. So, the first number is bigger.
* Answer: >
5. 9 405 330 vs 9 045 330: Look at the hundred thousands place. 4 is bigger than 0. So, the first number is bigger.
* Answer: >
6. 6 076 000 vs 6 760 000: Look at the hundred thousands place. 0 is less than 7. So, the first number is smaller.
* Answer: <
7. 5 403 716 vs 5 407 316: Look at the thousands place. 3 is less than 7. So, the first number is smaller.
* Answer: <
8. 4 055 890 vs 4 055 089: Look at the hundreds place. 8 is bigger than 0. So, the first number is bigger.
* Answer: >

*Available digits: 0, 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8*
1. A number greater than six million but smaller than six million, three hundred thousand.
* The millions digit must be 6.
* To stay under 6,300,000, the next digit (hundred thousands) must be 0, 1, or 2. Let's pick 2.
* We have used 6 and 2. Remaining: 0, 1, 5, 7, 8.
* We can arrange the rest in any order. Let's do descending order for simplicity: 8, 7, 5, 1, 0.
* Number: 6 287 510 (Check: It is > 6,000,000 and < 6,300,000).
2. A number which falls between five million and six million.
* The millions digit must be 5.
* We have used 5. Remaining: 0, 1, 2, 6, 7, 8.
* Arrange the rest in any order. Let's try ascending order: 0, 1, 2, 6, 7, 8.
* Number: 5 012 678 (Check: It is between 5m and 6m).
3. A number which has an even digit in the millions, tens and ones columns.
* Even digits available: 0, 2, 6, 8.
* Odd digits available: 1, 5, 7.
* Millions column needs an even digit. It cannot be 0 (or it wouldn't be a 7-digit number). Let's pick 2.
* Tens and Ones columns need even digits. Let's pick 6 and 8.
* We have used 2, 6, 8. Remaining digits for the middle spots (Hundred Thousands down to Hundreds): 0, 1, 5, 7.
* Let's just put them in order: 0, 1, 5, 7.
* Number: 2 015 768 (Millions=2 even, Tens=6 even, Ones=8 even).
4. The largest possible odd number.
* To make the largest number, we want the biggest digits at the front (left side).
* Sorted digits: 8, 7, 6, 5, 2, 1, 0.
* The number must be odd, so the very last digit (ones) must be odd (1, 5, or 7).
* To keep the number as large as possible, we want the biggest digits (8, 7, 6...) at the start. This means we should save the smallest odd digit for the end. The smallest odd digit is 1.
* So, the ones digit is 1.
* The remaining digits are 8, 7, 6, 5, 2, 0. We arrange these from biggest to smallest for the front of the number.
* Order: 8, 7, 6, 5, 2, 0.
* Number: 8 765 201

1. Use digits 1-7 to make a seven-digit number.
* *Clue: Multiple of 5.* The ones digit must be 5 (since 0 is not in our list).
* *Clue: Tens digit is a multiple of 3.* Options from 1-7 are 3 or 6.
* *Clue: Hundred thousands digit is double the tens digit.*
* If tens is 6, double is 12 (not a single digit). So tens cannot be 6.
* Therefore, Tens = 3.
* Double 3 is 6. So, Hundred Thousands = 6.
* *Current structure:* `_ 6 _ _ _ 3 5`
* *Remaining digits:* 1, 2, 4, 7.
* *Clue: Thousands digit is even.* Remaining evens are 2 and 4.
* *Clue: Millions digit is half the thousands digit.*
* If thousands is 2, half is 1. (1 is available).
* If thousands is 4, half is 2. (2 is available).
* *Clue: Ten thousands digit is prime but hundreds digit is not.*
* Remaining primes in our list (1,2,4,7) are 2 and 7. (1 is not prime).
* Remaining non-primes are 1 and 4.
* Let's test the "Thousands = 4" case first:
* If Thousands = 4, then Millions = 2.
* Used so far: 2 (M), 6 (HT), 4 (Th), 3 (T), 5 (O).
* Leftovers for Ten Thousands and Hundreds: 1 and 7.
* Ten Thousands must be prime. 7 is prime. 1 is not. So Ten Thousands = 7.
* Hundreds must be not prime. That leaves 1. (1 is not prime). This works!
* Let's check the other case just to be sure. If Thousands = 2, Millions = 1. Leftovers for Ten Th/Hundreds are 4 and 7. Ten Th must be prime (7). Hundreds must be not prime (4). This creates `1 6 7 2 4 3 5`. Both seem valid based on strict reading, but usually, these puzzles have one specific path. Let's re-read carefully. "The ten thousands digit is prime". 7 is prime. "The hundreds digit is not". 4 is not prime. Wait, in the first solution (`2 6 7 4 1 3 5`), the hundreds digit was 1. Is 1 prime? No. Is 4 prime? No.
* Let's look at `2 6 7 4 1 3 5`. Ten thousands (7) is prime. Hundreds (1) is not prime. This fits.
* Let's look at `1 6 7 2 4 3 5`. Ten thousands (7) is prime. Hundreds (4) is not prime. This also fits.
* Usually, "largest" or "smallest" isn't specified, but let's look closer at the digits 1-7.
* Let's stick with the first valid one found: 2 674 135.
2. Use digits 2-8 to make a seven-digit number.
* Digits available: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
* *Clue: Hundreds + Tens + Ones = 13.*
* *Clue: Hundreds digit is double the ones digit.*
* Possible pairs for (Hundreds, Ones): (4,2), (6,3), (8,4). (2,1 is impossible as 1 is not in range).
* Let's test pair (4,2): Hundreds=4, Ones=2. Then Tens = 13 - 4 - 2 = 7. Digits used: 2,4,7.
* Let's test pair (6,3): Hundreds=6, Ones=3. Then Tens = 13 - 6 - 3 = 4. Digits used: 3,4,6.
* Let's test pair (8,4): Hundreds=8, Ones=4. Then Tens = 13 - 8 - 4 = 1. (1 is not in range 2-8). Invalid.
* *Clue: Ten thousands digit is double the hundreds digit.*
* If we use pair (4,2) -> Hundreds=4. Double is 8. So Ten Thousands = 8. Digits used: 2,4,7,8.
* If we use pair (6,3) -> Hundreds=6. Double is 12. Not a single digit. Invalid.
* So, we must use the first option: Ones=2, Hundreds=4, Tens=7, Ten Thousands=8.
* *Current structure:* `_ _ 8 _ 4 7 2`
* *Digits used:* 2, 4, 7, 8.
* *Digits remaining:* 3, 5, 6.
* *Clue: Tens digit (7) is two bigger than the hundred thousands digit.*
* 7 - 2 = 5. So, Hundred Thousands = 5.
* *Current structure:* `_ 5 8 _ 4 7 2`
* *Digits remaining:* 3, 6.
* *Clue: Millions digit is even.*
* Remaining evens: 6. (3 is odd). So, Millions = 6.
* This leaves Ten Thousands? Wait, I already placed Ten Thousands as 8.
* Let's re-check positions.
* Pos: M, HT, TT, Th, H, T, O
* Found: HT=5, TT=8, H=4, T=7, O=2, M=6.
* The only spot left is Thousands (Th).
* The only digit left is 3. So, Thousands = 3.
* *Check Clue: No odd or even digits next to each other.*
* Number: 6 5 8 3 4 7 2
* 6 (Even) next to 5 (Odd). OK.
* 5 (Odd) next to 8 (Even). OK.
* 8 (Even) next to 3 (Odd). OK.
* 3 (Odd) next to 4 (Even). OK.
* 4 (Even) next to 7 (Odd). OK.
* 7 (Odd) next to 2 (Even). OK.
* All clues satisfied.

Task 3: Use clues to find the number
1. Use digits 1-7 to make a seven-digit number.
