Q1.
Page 3, row 5. Tokens: 10,000 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 1. Number Name: Ten thousand thirty-three. Fill in the Number and the digits in the TTh, Th, H, T and O columns.
Answer

The number is 10,033.

Step 1 — add up the tokens.

One 10,000 token = 10,000
Three 10 tokens = 30
Three 1 tokens = 3
10,000 + 30 + 3 = 10,033

Step 2 — put each digit in its column.

NumberTThThHTO
10,03310033
Why the two zeros: There is no 1,000 token and no 100 token in the row. So the thousands place and the hundreds place get 0. Those zeros are needed to keep the 1 sitting in the ten-thousands place.
Q2.
Page 3, last row. Number: 10,458. Number Name: Ten thousand four hundred fifty-eight. Fill in the digits in the TTh, Th, H, T and O columns.
Answer

Read the number from the left, one digit to one column.

NumberTThThHTO
10,45810458

Check with the tokens shown in the book:

One 10,000 token = 10,000
Four 100 tokens = 400
Five 10 tokens = 50
Eight 1 tokens = 8
10,000 + 400 + 50 + 8 = 10,458 ✓
Q3.
Page 4, row 1. Tokens: 10,000 + 1,000 + 100 + 100 + 10 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1. Digits given: TTh = 1, Th = 1, H = 2, T = 1, O = 4. Fill in the Number and the Number Name.
Answer

The number is 11,214, read as eleven thousand two hundred fourteen.

Step 1 — add up the tokens.

10,000
+ 1,000
+ 100 + 100 = 200
+ 10
+ 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4
Total = 11,214

Step 2 — check against the digits already printed.

TTh = 1, Th = 1, H = 2, T = 1, O = 4 → 1 1 2 1 4 → 11,214 ✓

Step 3 — say the name. Split at the comma: 11 | 214.

11 thousand … 214 → eleven thousand two hundred fourteen
Q4.
Page 4, row 2. Number: 13,520. Number Name: Thirteen thousand five hundred twenty. Fill in the digits in the TTh, Th, H, T and O columns.
Answer
NumberTThThHTO
13,52013520

Check with the tokens:

One 10,000 + three 1,000 tokens = 13,000
Five 100 tokens = 500
Two 10 tokens = 20
13,000 + 500 + 20 = 13,520 ✓
Tip: There is no 1 token in this row, so the ones place is 0. That is why the name stops at twenty.
Q5.
Page 4, row 3. Number: 20,000. Number Name: Twenty thousand. Fill in the digits in the TTh, Th, H, T and O columns.
Answer
NumberTThThHTO
20,00020000
Two 10,000 tokens = 10,000 + 10,000 = 20,000
Why four zeros: Twenty thousand means 2 in the ten-thousands place and nothing anywhere else. The four zeros are there to hold the 2 in its place. Remove them and you would be left with 2.
Q6.
Page 4, row 4. Number: 45,867. Number Name: Forty-five thousand eight hundred sixty-seven. Fill in the digits in the TTh, Th, H, T and O columns.
Answer
NumberTThThHTO
45,86745867

Check with the tokens shown in the book:

Four 10,000 tokens = 40,000
Five 1,000 tokens = 5,000
Eight 100 tokens = 800
Six 10 tokens = 60
Seven 1 tokens = 7
40,000 + 5,000 + 800 + 60 + 7 = 45,867 ✓
Tip: To read any 5-digit number, look at the comma. 45 before it and 867 after it. Say the first part, add the word thousand, then say the second part: forty-five thousand, eight hundred sixty-seven.
