Bodhwad : 91,256
Moregaon : 87,012
Bhamragad : 35,950

Morwada : 85,890

(1) Which place has the greatest population? What is its population?
(2) Which place, Morwada or Moregaon, has the greater population?
(3) Which place has the smallest population? How much is it?

Solution & Step-by-Step Answer:

(1) Washi has the greatest population. Population of Washi is 92,173
(2) Moregaon has the greater population.
(3) Gaganbawada has the smallest population. Its population is 35,777

Introducing six-digit numbers
Teacher : How much, do you think, is the price of a four-wheeler?
Ajay : Maybe about six or seven lakh rupees.
Teacher : Do you know exactly how much one lakh is?
Ajay : It’s a lot, isn’t it? More than even ten thousand, right?
Teacher : Yes, indeed ! Let’s find out just how much. What is 999 + 1?
Ajay : One thousand.
Teacher : You have learnt to write 99000, too. Now, if you add 1000 to that, you will get one hundred thousand. That’s what we call one lakh.
Vijay : 9999+1 is 10,000 (ten thousand). We had made the ten thousands place for it. Can we make a place for one lakh too in the same way?
Teacher : Yes, of course. Carry out the addition 99,999 + 1 and see what you get.

Here we keep carrying over till we have to make a place for the ‘lakh’ on the left of the ten thousands place. And we write the last carried over one in that place. The sum we get is read as ‘one lakh’.
Vijay : Kishakaka bought a second-hand car for two and a half lakh rupees.
Ajay : How much is two and a half lakh?
Teacher : One lakh is 100 thousand. So, half a lakh is 50 thousand. Because, half of 100 is 50.

Vijay : That means two and a half lakh is 2 lakh 50 thousand.
Teacher : Now write this number in figures.
Vijay : 2,50,000.
Teacher : We have seen that a hundred thousand is 1 lakh. If we have 1000 notes of 100 rupees, how many rupees would they make?
Vijay : 1000 notes of 100 rupees would make 1 lakh rupees.

Reading six-digit numbers
(1) 2,35,705 : two lakh thirty-five thousand seven hundred and five
(2) 8,00,363 : eight lakh three hundred and sixty-three
(3) 3,07,899 : three lakh seven thousand eight hundred and ninety-nine
(4) 9,00,049 : nine lakh forty-nine
(5) 5,30,735 : five lakh thirty thousand seven hundred and thirty-five

Writing six-digit numbers in figures
(1) Eight lakh, nine thousand and forty-three : There are 8 lakhs in this number. There are no ten thousands, so we write 0 in that place. As there are 9 thousands, we write 9 in the thousands place. We write 0 in the hundreds place as there are no hundreds. Forty-three is equal to 4 tens and 3 units, so in the tens and units places we write 4 and 3 respectively. In figures : 8,09,043.

When writing numbers in figures, write the digit in the highest place first and then, in each of the next smaller places, write the proper digit from 1 to 9. Write 0, if there is no digit in that place. For example, if the number eight lakh, nine thousand and forty-three is written as ‘89043’, it is wrong. It should be written as 8,09,043. Here, we have to write zero in the ten thousands place.

(2) Four lakh, twenty thousand, five hundred : In this figure, there aren’t any thousands in the thousands place, so we write 0 in it. Since there are five hundreds, we write 5 in the hundreds place. There are no tens and units, hence, we write 0 in those places. In figures : 4,20,500.
