Standard Format to Expanded Format (Power of Ten) Worksheets | Place Value & Number Decomposition Practice

These Standard Format to Expanded Format (Power of Ten) Worksheets are designed to help students understand the structure of numbers using powers of ten. Learners practice breaking down standard numbers into their expanded form, reinforcing how each digit’s position determines its value in the base-ten system.

Students will convert numbers such as 7,345 = (7 × 10³) + (3 × 10²) + (4 × 10¹) + (5 × 10⁰) to strengthen their understanding of place value, exponential notation, and number decomposition. The worksheets include both whole numbers and decimals, allowing for progressive skill development and deeper number sense.

Perfect for Grades 4 to 8, this resource supports math lessons on powers of ten, exponents, expanded form, and place value. It encourages analytical thinking by helping students visualize how large and small numbers are constructed using multiples of ten.
