Fourteen decimals with two places and whole parts of up to two digits, each with one digit picked out: what is the 5 in 43.75 worth? The answer is written as a number — 0.05 — so a child has to read the column the digit sits in, not just name it.
Write what each digit is worth. In 3.75 the 7 is worth 0.7 and the 5 is worth 0.05.

What is on this sheet
The digit asked about appears exactly once in its number, so “the 7 in 47.35” names one column and no other. Most of the questions point at the digits after the point, which is what the sheet is for, but some point at a tens or units digit — a child who assumes every answer is small has stopped reading the columns, and the 4 in 43.75 being worth 40 is the check.
The answer is a number rather than a word, deliberately. “Hundredths” is a label a child can produce without knowing what it means; 0.05 is a value they have to place, and it is the form that carries into every decimal sum they do afterwards. The key prints each worth at the places its column has — 0.7, 0.05, 40 — and never 0.70 or 0.050.
The answers were worked out when the problems were, so the key is the same page with the answers drawn in rather than a second attempt at the same questions — there is no way for the two to disagree. The number in the footer is the seed the sheet was built from: it is printed so that the identical sheet can be had again next week, rather than one that merely looks like it.
Change what is on it
This page is one sheet out of a family that can print thousands, and the settings behind it — how many problems, how big the numbers get, how they are laid out, whether there is room to work — are all switches. The builder link at the top of the page carries this sheet’s own settings, so the bench opens on exactly the sheet here rather than on a blank one.
The configuration travels in the address bar rather than on a server, so the link can be bookmarked or sent to somebody as it stands — and what they open is this sheet, down to the seed, rather than another one like it.
The same facts, on screen
Not in the games, which drill facts rather than number sense.
