Game: FOUR IN A ROW
Aim: To get four symbols in a row
Method:
Choose a square and click on it. Click on the correct answer to the question in the box that appears. If you are right the square is replaced by a tick. Continue until you have won 4 in a row...
To divide by 1000, all you have to do is move the decimal point three places to the left. The number gets smaller because you're splitting it into one thousand equal sized parts. Let's see how this works with some examples:
Divide 6000 by 1000
6000 has no decimal point, so let's put one in, right after the last digit: 6000.0
Now, move the decimal point three place to the left: 6000.0 becomes 6.0000
That's it: 6000 ÷ 1000 = 6
Divide 1277 by 1000
1277 has no visible decimal point, so let's put it in, right after the last digit: 1277.0
Now, move the decimal point three places to the left: 1277.0 becomes 1.2770
So 1277 ÷ 1000 = 1.277
Remember, when you divide by 1000, you are sharing the number into one thousand equal parts. That means the number gets a lot smaller. So the answer to a division by 1000 should always be a much smaller number than the starting number.
Divide 12.98 by 1000
So, move the decimal point three places to the left: 12.98 becomes 0.01298
12.98 ÷ 1000 = 0.01298
This topic asks you to calculate division by 1000 for each given number. The numbers to divide range from 1000 up to 200,000.
With our Four in a row math game you will be practicing the topic "Divide by 1000" from 4th grade / Division / Mental method. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to use mental calculations to divide numbers up to 200,000 by 1000.
The game will reinforce the math you have chosen to learn by getting you to match the question to the correct answer.
