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.
