Year 6 Place Value Worksheet - Intermediate
Year 6 Place Value worksheet for Year 6 (Key Stage 2 / Year 3-6 (Ages 7-11)). Intermediate level maths practice, aligned to the UK National Curriculum. Print-ready with answer key included.
Place-Value Power: Numbers to 10,000,000
Year 6 | Ages 10–11 | Intermediate
Instructions: Work through each activity carefully and show your thinking where useful. Use place-value knowledge to read, compare and round numbers, then apply negative numbers to temperatures and altitude. Check each answer against the number of digits and the direction of the number line.
Read, Write and Compare Large Numbers
Write each number in figures or words as requested. For the comparison, use <, > or = in the box. Remember that 10,000,000 is ten million.
1. Write in figures: six million, forty-two thousand, nine hundred and eight.
2. Write 3,705,016 in words.
3. Write <, > or =: 8,090,500 8,900,050
4. Order these numbers from smallest to largest: 4,650,210; 4,605,210; 4,650,120.
5. What is the value of the digit 7 in 9,274,631?
What Is Each Digit Worth?
Use the place-value chart to identify each digit’s value. Then complete the two number sentences. A digit’s value depends on its position, not just the digit itself.
| Number | Hundred-thousands | Tens-thousands | Thousands |
| 6 | 4 | 2 | |
| 3 | 5 | 8 | |
| 1 | 7 | 6 |
1. In 6,482,315, what is the value of the digit 8?
2. In 3,508,176, what is the value of the digit 5?
3. In 1,276,943, what is the value of the digit 7?
4. In 8,641,205, which digit is in the ten-thousands place?
Round with Confidence
Round each number to the place named. Look at the digit immediately to the right of the place you are rounding to: 5 or more means round up; 4 or less means keep the digit the same.
1. Round 6,482,731 to the nearest 10,000.
2. Round 3,749,206 to the nearest 100,000.
3. Round 8,095,499 to the nearest 1,000.
4. Round 2,650,000 to the nearest 100,000.
5. Round 9,999,501 to the nearest 1,000,000.
Negative Numbers in Context
Temperatures below 0°C are negative. For each question, calculate the change or interval carefully, including the distance across zero where needed.
1. At dawn the temperature is −6°C. By midday it rises to 4°C. How many degrees has it risen?
2. A freezer is at −18°C and warms to −7°C. How many degrees warmer is it?
3. The temperature falls from 3°C to −5°C. How many degrees does it fall?
4. A town is at −4°C. The temperature drops by 3°C. What is the new temperature?
5. At 6 a.m. it is −2°C; at noon it is 7°C. Find the temperature interval.
Number-Line Challenges
Solve each question using the marked values in the number sentence. When finding an interval, count the distance between the two numbers, even if the interval crosses zero.
1. What is the interval from −12 to 5?
2. A lift is on level −3. It travels up 8 levels. On which level does it stop?
3. A diver is 6 metres below sea level (−6 m) and rises 10 metres. What is the diver’s new position relative to sea level?
4. Which is greater: −9 or −4? Write the greater number.
5. Complete the sequence: −8, −3, 2, ___, ___.
