Example 1:- Write whole numbers in letters and numbers using the number table given below.
No Thousands place
Hundreds Place Tens place One place
a 6 0 1
b 2 4 1 0
c 5 3 9 7
d 9 9 9 9
Solution:-
When we write in word form When written in
numbers
a. Six hundred and one 601
b. Two thousand four hundred and ten 2,410
c. Five thousand three hundred and ninety 5,397
seven 9,999
d. Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine
Example 3: Expand the following whole numbers
a. 482 b. 9,503
Solution:
Procedure
a. For 482
1. Identify the place value of the numbers 2 one place, 8 tenth place, 4 hundredth place
2. Multiply each number by the place value 4×100=400, 8×10=80, 2×1=2
b. For 9,503:
9×1000=9000, 5×100=500, 0×10=0, 3×1=3
So 9,503=9000 +500+0+3
Example 4:
Write the digit that represents the whole number given below in expanded
form: 5×1,000+9×100+0×10+9×1
Solution: 5×1,000+ 9×100+0×10+9×1 =
5,000+900+0+9
=5,909

to maintain the cleanliness and beauty of the city is 65,000 in the 1st round, 64,500 in the 2nd round, write in
which round the number mentioned is a multiple of 1,000.
Note:-
~ If the values of 1, 10, and 100 place of a whole number are zero, then the whole number is
Multiple 1,000.
~ Multiplying a whole number by 1,000 means writing the first number and then adding three zeros
at the end.
~For a whole number to be a multiple of 1,000, at least the values of 1, 10, and 100 places
must bezero.
Example 6:

5
Grade 4 Mathematics
Solution:
18,800 and 39,700 are not multiples of 1,000 because their 100th place is different from zero.
36,000 and 90,000 are multiples of 1,000 because the values of 1, 10, and 100 place are zero.

c. 9,300 is a multiple of 1,000.
d. 22×1,000=2,200
2. Which of the following numbers are multiples of 1,000?
Note:-
~ If the values of 1, 10, 100, and 1,000 place of a whole number are 0, then the whole
number is amultiple of 10,000.
~ Multiplying a whole number by 10,000 means writing the number first and
add four 0's at the end.
~ If a whole number is a multiple of 10,000, then the whole number can be a multiple of 10,
100, and 1,000.

b. A whole number that is a multiple of 1,000 cannot be a multiple of 10,000.
c. A whole number that is a multiple of 10,000 can be a multiple of 1,000.
2. Complete the following table.
× 10 30 70 100
10,000 500,000
How can you find whole numbers that are multiples of 100,000?
Note:-
If the values of 1, 10, 100, 1,000, and 10,000 place of a whole number are zero, then
the whole number is a multiple of 100,000.
Multiplying a whole number by 100,000 means writing the number first and adding
five zeros at the end.
If a whole number is a multiple of 100,000, then the whole number can be a multiple
of 10, 100, 10,000, and 100,000.

Summary of chapter 1
~ When we read numbers from right to left one's place, ten's place, hundred's place
and will read up the end of the number.
~ Multiples of 1,000 are numbers with zeros in one's place, ten's place and hundred's
place (if the right three digits are zero).
~ Multiples of 10,000 are numbers with zeros in ones place, tens place, hundreds place
and thousands place (if the four digits on the right are zero).
~ Multiples of 1,000,000 are numbers with zeros in ones place, tens place, and
hundreds place, thousands place, and ten thousand place (if the five digits on the
right are zero).
~ To compare two whole numbers, we compare them starting from left to right.
If the digits are not equal, the one that has more digits is greater.
~ To round whole numbers, the letter to the right of the rounding place is rounded up if it is
five or more. If the number is less than five, it will be rounded down.
~ Among Ethiopian numbers, the basic numbers are (19). They are:
