Did you know?
1 000 million is a MILLIARD or BILLION!
Did you also know?
We can write 10 as 101.
We say 10 to the power of 1
This means:
10 x 1 = 10
102 = 10 to the power of 2
= 10 x 10 = 100
103 = 10 to the power of 3
= 10 x 10 x 10 = 1 000
104 = 10 to the power of 4
= 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10 000
Assessment
Learning Outcome 1: The learner will be able to recognise, describe and represent numbers and their relationships, and to count, estimate, calculate and check with competence and confidence in solving problems.
Assessment Standard 1.3: We know this when the learner recognises and represents the following numbers in order to describe and compare them:
1.3.1: whole numbers to at least 9-digit numbers.
