5-Digits Expanded Form

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a mathematical exercise that focuses on converting 5-digit numbers into their expanded form. It presents a list of 5-digit numbers, each labeled with a letter from a) to j), and provides an example at the top to demonstrate how to write a number in its expanded form. Students are expected to break down each number into its individual place values, expressing each digit’s value as a product of the digit and the value of its position. The format of the worksheet is clean and straightforward, with lines provided for students to write their answers.

The worksheet aims to teach students how to decompose numbers into an expanded form, which illustrates the value of each digit in terms of its place value. This exercise reinforces the concept of the base-ten number system, crucial for understanding how numbers are structured. By expanding numbers, students enhance their number sense and become more adept at recognizing the importance of digit positions. Mastery of this skill is foundational for future mathematical learning, including algebra and number theory.
