Revision notes

Revise numbers and relationships

Read and write numbers to ten million, scale by powers of ten and choose the correct order of operations.

Key ideas

  1. Read and write numbers in millions

    Use place-value periods to read and record whole numbers up to ten million.

  2. Powers of ten and operation order

    Scale whole numbers by tens and decide the order of a calculation before working.

What the syllabus asks

From the Primary 5 Mathematics 2025 syllabus

  • Reading and writing numbers in numerals and in words
  • Multiplying and dividing by 10, 100, 1000 and their multiples without calculator
  • Order of operations without calculator
  • Use of brackets without calculator
