About this worksheet

Reading, writing, and comparing large numbers helps students use place value to explain exactly what a number means is a major fourth-grade math step because students now work with larger numbers, multi-step reasoning, and more precise notation. Students may compare by length or by a digit they notice first instead of lining up places from left to right. This worksheet gives short, self-checking questions that rotate through the parts of the skill instead of repeating one template. Students write numbers in standard, word, and expanded form, compare values with symbols, and use place value evidence to justify choices. Support versions keep the numbers friendlier while preserving the same reasoning. Standard and challenge versions add larger values, closer distractors, or an extra comparison step. Encourage your child to write down the place, operation, or unit before calculating. If an answer is close but does not match the requested place value, fraction denominator, or measurement unit, it is probably the trap answer.

Worked example

438,205 is greater than 437,999 because the thousands digit is larger after the hundred-thousands digits match.

Common mistake

Comparing 72,050 and 72,500 by the last digit instead of the hundreds place.
