Students complete nine fill-in-the-blank problems evaluating powers of 10 from 10¹ to 10⁵. The matching activity pairs four exponent expressions — including 5 × 10³, 10², and 2 × 10⁴ — with their standard form values.
Converting between exponent notation and standard form connects powers of 10 to their concrete values and prepares students to read and write large numbers in scientific contexts across all subjects.

Place Value & Powers of 10
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. 10³ = 1,000.
2. 10⁵ = 100,000.
3. 10¹ = 10.
4. Write 10,000 using an exponent: 10 to the power of 4.
5. 8 × 10⁴ = 80,000.
6. 3.5 × 10² = 350.
7. Write 1,000,000 using an exponent: 10 to the power of 6.
8. Compare: 4 × 10³ > 400 (write >, <, or =).
9. Compare: 7 × 10² < 7 × 10⁴ (write >, <, or =).
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.

→ 100
1,000,000
5 × 10³
→ 5,000
5,000
10⁶
→ 1,000,000
