You may choose the method you use

• Every scholar is different. Do what makes you comfortable. Keep trying both ways. You might get better.

• As long as you remember to regroup to the thousands place when necessary, you will be fine.

• Check to see if they want the answer as a mixed number (large and small units) or if they want it converted. (all small units)

• Make sure that your answer is reasonable. Use your knowledge of relative sizes.

Time for you to try it. Take a deep breath.
