Sample questions (in Chinese)
Question 1「七千八百零一萬六千三百」用數字寫出來是多少?
Answer and explanation
答案:78016300
為甚麼?由右邊起每四位分成一級:7801 | 6300。由最高的一級讀起(萬級、個級);中間有 0 的讀一個「零」,每級末尾的 0 不讀。所以 78,016,300 讀作七千八百零一萬六千三百。
Question 2847,612,539 中的數字「7」表示多少?
Answer and explanation
答案:7000000
為甚麼?847,612,539 是九位數,由個位起向左數是個位、十位、百位、千位、萬位、十萬位、百萬位、千萬位、億位。「7」在百萬位,表示 7 個百萬,即是 7,000,000。
Question 3順數,每次加 10,000,000(1 個千萬),填上空格。

Answer and explanation
答案:480,000,000、490,000,000、500,000,000、510,000,000、520000000
為甚麼?每次多 1 個千萬:480,000,000、490,000,000、500,000,000、510,000,000、520,000,000。數到 10 個千萬時,要向前一位進一(倒數時要退一)。
Question 4797,549 是奇數還是偶數?
- 奇數
- 偶數
Answer and explanation
答案:A.奇數
為甚麼?能被 2 整除的數是偶數(雙數),不能被 2 整除的數是奇數(單數)。只要看個位:797,549 的個位是 9,9 不能被 2 整除,所以 797,549 是奇數。
