Worksheet Description

This worksheet challenges students to arrange six-digit numbers in both increasing and decreasing order. The activity presents several groups of six-digit numbers, and students must carefully evaluate and sequence the numbers from smallest to largest or largest to smallest, depending on the instructions. This exercise is designed to sharpen students’ ability to compare large numbers and understand their relative sizes. By working through these problems, students develop a stronger sense of numerical order and improve their attention to detail when dealing with multi-digit numbers.

This worksheet teaches students how to systematically analyze and arrange large numbers by focusing on the value of each digit in different positions. By practicing the arrangement of numbers in increasing and decreasing order, students enhance their ability to quickly identify the smallest and largest numbers within a group. The activity reinforces the concept that each digit’s place value plays a crucial role in determining a number’s overall magnitude. This skill is fundamental not only for basic arithmetic but also for more advanced math topics, where understanding the order of numbers is key.
