This math topic involves practicing place value skills by identifying missing numbers in equations to form six-digit numbers. Students are required to understand and apply their knowledge of place values from units to millions to correctly complete the equations. Each problem is structured by adding known digits and blanks, which students must fill in to match a given total. The problems range from simple additions involving smaller place values like units and tens, to more complex scenarios involving thousands and hundreds of thousands. This topic helps strengthen a student's understanding of number structure and decimal place values up to millions and thousandths.
