Digit Detective

Worksheet Description

This worksheet challenges students to identify and underline the correct digit in a six-digit number based on its given value. Each problem provides a number along with a specific value, and students must determine which digit in the number corresponds to that value. The exercise focuses on reinforcing students’ understanding of place value by having them directly connect the value of a digit to its position within the number. By completing these problems, students enhance their ability to quickly and accurately recognize the significance of each digit in large numbers.

This worksheet teaches students how to analyze and understand the role of individual digits within a large number by focusing on place value. By identifying the correct digit for a given value, students practice connecting abstract place value concepts to concrete examples, which solidifies their comprehension of how numbers are structured. The activity also improves students’ attention to detail and their ability to think critically about numerical relationships. Overall, this exercise strengthens foundational math skills that are essential for more complex mathematical tasks involving large numbers and place value.
