    Study Notes

    Finding Greatest and Smallest Numbers

    • Determine the greatest and smallest numbers in a given set by comparing digits.
    • Example: In the set 382, 4972, 18, 59785, 750, the greatest number is 59785, and the smallest is 18.
    • Numbers can be compared based on the number of digits; more digits typically indicate a larger number.
    • Use positional values (thousands, hundreds, tens) to compare numbers with the same number of digits.

    Comparing Numbers

    • When comparing 4875 and 3542, both have the same number of digits but the thousands place of 4875 is greater, making it the larger number.
    • For 4875 and 4542, since the thousands place is the same, we compare next in the hundreds place, finding 4875 is still larger.

    Ordering Numbers

    • Ascending order arranges numbers from the smallest to the greatest.
    • Descending order arranges numbers from the greatest to the smallest.
    • Example sets for practice:
      • Ascending: 847, 9754, 8320, 571
      • Descending: 5000, 7500, 85400, 7861

    Shifting Digits

    • Shifting digits within a number can change its value significantly.
    • Example: The number 182 can form 821 (larger) and 128 (smaller).
    • When swapping hundreds and ones places, the new number's size varies depending on the digits involved.

    Understanding Place Value

    • The largest single-digit number is 9; adding 1 gives the smallest two-digit number (10).
    • The greatest two-digit number (99) plus one results in the smallest three-digit number (100).
    • Following this pattern, adding 1 to the greatest four-digit number (9999) produces the smallest five-digit number (10000).

    Expanding Numbers

    • Expand numbers based on their positional values:
      • For 78: 70 + 8 = 7 × 10 + 8
      • For 278: 200 + 70 + 8 = 2 × 100 + 7 × 10 + 8
      • For 5278: 5000 + 200 + 70 + 8 = 5 × 1000 + 2 × 100 + 7 × 10 + 8
    • Introduced five-digit numbers also use this breakdown:
      • Example: 45278 is 4 × 10000 + 5 × 1000 + 2 × 100 + 7 × 10 + 8, recognized as forty-five thousand, two hundred seventy-eight.
