  • For the numbers in the previous exercise, find out how to get each number by making the smallest number of button clicks and write the expression. Sol. (a) 8300 (8×1000)+(3×100)=8300 8×(+1000)=8000 ( 8 clicks) 3×(+100)=300 ( 3 clicks) Total clicks: 8+3=11 (b) 40629 (4×10000)+(6×100)+(2×10)+ (9×1)=40629 4×(+10000)=40000 (4 clicks) 6×(+100)=600 ( 6 clicks) 2×(+10)=20 ( 2 clicks) 9×(+1)=9 ( 9 clicks) Total clicks: 4+6+2+9=21 (c) 56354 (5×10000)+(6×1000)+(3×100) +(5×10)+(4×1)=56354 5×(+10000)=50000 ( 5 clicks) 6×(+1000)=6000 ( 6 clicks) 3×(+100)=300 ( 3 clicks) 5×(+10)=50 ( 5 clicks) 4×(+1)=4 ( 4 clicks) Total clicks: 5+6+3+5+4=23 (d) 66666 (6×10000)+(6×1000)+(6×100) +(6×10)+(6×1)=66666 6×(+10000)=60000 ( 6 clicks) 6×(+1000)=6000 ( 6 clicks) 6×(+100)=600 ( 6 clicks) 6×(+10)=60 ( 6 clicks) 6×(+1)=6 ( 6 clicks) Total clicks: 6+6+6+6+6=30 (e) 367813 (3×100000)+(6×10000)+(7× 1000)+(8×100)+(1×10)+(3×1) =367813 3×(+100000)=300000 ( 3 clicks) 6×(+10000)=60000 ( 6 clicks) 7×(+1000)=7000 ( 7 clicks) 8×(+100)=800 ( 8 clicks) 1×(+10)=10 ( 1 click) 3×(+1)=3 ( 3 dicks) Total clicks: 3+6+7+8+1+3=28
  • Do you see any connection between each number and the corresponding smallest number of button clicks? Sol. The smallest number of button clicks depends on the place value of the digit in the number. If the digit in a particular place is small, then less number of clicks are required and if it is big, then more number of clicks are required.
  • If you notice, the expressions for the least button clicks also give the Indian place value notation of the numbers. Think about why this is so. Sol. When we write a number using the least button clicks, we divide it into parts like lakh, thousand, hundred, ten, and one. These are the same place values we use in the Indian place value system, so both look the same.

Removing the 10 highlighted digits from left to right: 12345123451234512345 The number we get is 5534512345 , which is the largest possible number.
  • The words 'zero' and 'one' share letters ' e ' and ' o '. The words 'one' and 'two' share a letter ' o ', and the words 'two' and 'three' also share a letter 't'. How far do you have to count to find two consecutive numbers which do not share an English letter in common? Sol. Let's list the spellings of some numbers and check for shared letters between consecutive numbers. 1.Zero (Z, E, R, O) and One (O, N, E) - Share ' e ' and ' o '. 2.One ( 0, N,E ) and Two ( T,W,O ) - Share 'o'. 3.Two ( T,W,O ) and Three ( T,H,R,E,E ) Share 't'. 4.Three (T, H, R, E, E) and Four (F, O, U, R) - Share 'r'. 5.Four ( F,O,U,R ) and Five ( F,I,V,E ) Share 'f'. 6.Five (F, I, V, E) and Six (S, I, X) - Share 'i'. 7.Six (S, I, X) and Seven (S, E, V, E, N) - Share 's'. 8.Seven (S, E, V, E, N) and Eight (E, I, G, H, T) - Share 'e'. 9.Eight (E, I, G, H, T) and Nine (N, I, N, E) Share 'e', 'i'. 10.Nine (N, I, N, E) and Ten (T, E, N) - Share ' e′ ', ' n '. Similarly, we can check for any two consecutive numbers. Therefore, there are no consecutive numbers that do not share a letter in common.
  • Suppose you write down all the numbers 1,2,3,4,…,9,10,11,…. The tenth digit you write is ' 1 ' and the eleventh digit is ' 0 ', as part of the number 10. (a) What would the 1000th  digit be? At which number would it occur? (b) What number would contain the millionth digit? (c) When would you have written the digit ' 5 ' for the 5000th  time? Sol. (a) 1-digit numbers (1-9): There are 9 numbers. Each number uses 1 digit. Total digits: 9×1=9 digits. The 9th digit is ' 9 ' (from the number 9). 2-digit numbers (10-99): There are 99−10+1=90 numbers. Each number uses 2 digits. Total digits: 90×2=180 digits. Cumulative digits up to 99 : 9+180=189 digits. The 189 th digit is ' 9 ' (from the number 99). 3-digit numbers (100-999): There are 999−100+1=900 numbers. Each number uses 3 digits. Total digits: 900×3=2700 digits. Cumulative digits up to 999 : 189+2700=2889 digits. To find the 1000th digit: Digits so far: 9+180=189. So, the 1000 th digit will lie in the 3 digit numbers range. Remaining digits: 1000−189=811. Number of 3-digit numbers to reach 811 digits: 811÷3=270, with 1 remaining number. Thus, first we need to write the first 270 3-digit numbers starting from 100. So, the 270th 3-digit number =100+270−1=369. The next number is 370 . Thus, the 1000th digit is the 1st digit of 370 , which is 3 . (b) 4-digit numbers (1000-9999): There are 9999−1000+1=9000 numbers. Each number uses 4 digits. Total digits: 9000×4=36,000 digits. Cumulative digits up to 9999: 2889+36000=38,889 digits. 5-digit numbers (10000-99999): There are 99999−10000+1=90,000 numbers. Each number uses 5 digits. Total digits: 90,000×5=450,000 digits. Cumulative digits up to 99999: 38,889+450,000=488,889 digits. 6-digit numbers (100000999999): There are 999999−100000+1=900,000 numbers. Each number uses 6 digits. Total digits: 900,000×6=5,400,000 digits. To reach the millionth digit: Upto 5-digit numbers: 9+180+2700+36,000+4,50,000=4,88,889 Remaining digits in the 6-digit range: 1,000,000 (or ( 10,00,000 ) 4,88,889=5,11,111 The number of 6 -digit numbers required: 5,11,111÷6=85,185, with 1 remaining number. So, the 85,185 th 6 -digit number is 85,185+1,00,000−1=1,85,184. The millionth digit occurs in the number 185184+1=1,85,185. (c) Single-digit numbers (1-9): 5 occurs only 1 time Two-digit numbers (10-99) ( 15,25,35,…,95 ), 5 occurs 9 times. 50, 51, 52, ..., 59, 5 occurs 10 times. Thus, 5 occurs 20 times in two digit numbers. Three-digit numbers (100-999) (i) Unit's place: In numbers like 105, 115,…..,995,5 occurs 90 times. (ii) Ten's place: In numbers like 150159, 250-259, ......, 950-959, 5 occurs 90 times. (iii) Hundred's place: In numbers like 500-599, 5 occurs 100 times. Thus, 90 (unit's place) +90 (ten's place) + 100 (hundred's place) = 280 occurrences Total occurrences so far: 20+280=300 Four-digit numbers (1000-9999) (i) Unit's place: In numbers like 1005, 1015, ..., 9995, 5 occurs 900 times. (ii) Ten's place: In numbers like 10501059, 1150-1159, ..., 9950-9959, 5 occurs 900 times (iii) Hundred's place: In number like 1500-1599,2500-2599,..., 95009599, 5 occurs 900 times. (iv) Thousands position: 5000-5999, 5 occurs 1000 times Adding these up: 900 (unit's place) + 900 (ten's place) + 900 (hundred's place) + 1000 (thousand's place) = 3700 occurrences Total occurrences so far: 300+3700=4000 Five-digit numbers (starting from 10000) (i) In 10001-10999: For the 5000th number, we require 5000−4000=1000 more numbers that lie in 10001-10999. Among 10000-10999, one digit 5 appears in 100 numbers (e.g., 10005, 10015,....., 10995). The digit 5 appears in 100 numbers (e.g., 10050-10059, ..., 1095010959). The digit 5 appears in 100 numbers (e.g., 10500-10599). Total occurrences so far: 4000+300=4300 (ii) In 11000-11999 5 at unit's place =100 times 5 at ten's place = 100 times 5 at a hundred's place = 100 times Total occurrences so far: 4300+300=4600 (iii) In 12000-12999 5 at unit's place =100 times 5 at ten's place = 100 times 5 at a hundred's place = 100 times Total occurrences so far: 4600+300=4900 (iv) In 13000-13999 5 occurs at unit place in numbers 13005, 13015 ......... So, 5 occurs for 5000th  time in 100th  number starting from 13005 i.e. 13995 Required number =13995

    Largest possible sum =9988776+65544=10054320 (b) Smallest 7 digit number using 18 digits = 1122334 Greatest 5 digit number using remaining 11 digits = 99887
    Smallest possible difference  = 1122334−99887=1022447
  • You are given some number cards; 4000, 13000, 300, 70000, 150000, 20, 5. Using the cards get as close as you can to the numbers below using any operation you want. Each card can be used only once for making a particular number. (a) 1,10,000: Closest I could make is 4000×(20+5)+13000=1,13,000 (b) 2,00,000 (c) 5,80,000 (d) 12,45,000 (e) 20,90,800 : Sol. (a) 4000×(20+5)+13000 =4000×25+13000 =100000+13000 =113000 This gives us 1,13,000, which is very close to 1,10,000. (b) 1,50,000+70,000−4000×5 =2,00,000 (c) 70,000×5+4,000×20+1,50,000 = 5,80,000 (d) 70,000×20−300×5−4,000−1,50,000=12,44,500 This gives us 12,44,500, which is very close to 12,45,000. (e) 13,000×300−70,000(20+5)+4,000−1,50,000=20,04,000
  • Find out how many coins should be stacked to match the height of the Statue of Unity. Assume each coin is 1 mm thick. Sol. Approximate height of the Statue of Unity is 182 m=1,82,000 mm (Since 1 m=1000 mm ) Thickness of one coin =1 mm Number of coins needed =1,82,000 mm ÷1 mm=1,82,000 coins
  • Grey-headed albatrosses have a roughly 7-feet wide wingspan. They are known to migrate across several oceans. Albatrosses can cover about 900-1000 km in a day. One of the longest single trips recorded is about 12,000 km. How many days would such a trip take to cross the Pacific Ocean approximately? Sol. Time = Speed  Dis tance ​ To estimate the number of days, divide the total distance by the daily distance covered. If the albatross flies 900 km per day. 900 km/ day 12000 km​=13.33 days ≈13 to 14 days If the albatross flies 1000 km per day. 1000 km/ day 12000 km​=12 days It would take approximately 12 to 14 days for a grey headed albatross to complete a 12,000 km journey across the Pacific Ocean, depending on its flying speed.
  • A bar-tailed godwit holds the record for the longest recorded non-stop flight. It travelled 13,560 km from Alaska to Australia without stopping. Its journey started on 13 October 2022 and continued for about 11 days. Find out the approximate distance it covered every day. Find out the approximate distance it covered every hour. Sol. Total distance =13,560 km and duration = 11 days Approximate distance covered every day =13,560÷11∼1,233 km/ day . Thus, the godwit covers approximately 1,233 km per day. One day = 24 hours Approximate distance covered every hour =1,233÷24∼51 km/ hour . Thus, the godwit covers approximately 51 km per hour.
  • Bald eagles are known to fly as high as 4500-6000 m above the ground level. Mount Everest is about 8850 m high. Aeroplanes can fly as high as 10,00012,800 m. How many times bigger are these heights compared to Somu's building ( 44 m tall)? Sol. Let's compare these heights to Somu's building: Bald eagle: 4500-6000 m; Mount Everest: 8850 m; Aeroplanes: 10,000−12,800 m Somu's building is 44 m tall. Heights compared to Somu's building: Bald eagle: ( 4500÷44∼102 ) to ( 6000÷44∼136 ) The bald eagle's flying height is 102−136 times higher. Mount Everest: 8850÷44=201 Mount Everest is 201 times bigger. Aeroplanes: (10,000÷44∼227) to ( 12,800÷44∼291 ) An aeroplane's flying height is 227-291 times higher.

Frequently Asked Questions

The primary objective is to help students understand and work with large numbers, including concepts like lakhs and crores, their place values, and their representation in the Indian numbering system. It also aims to develop a sense of scale and approximation for large quantities.

In the Indian Place Value System, commas are used to separate periods. The first comma comes after the hundreds place (e.g., 5,830), and subsequent commas are placed after every two digits to the left, representing Lakhs, Crores, etc.

The "Land of Tens" section uses different types of calculators to help students conceptually understand place value and how numbers are composed. It illustrates that a number can be formed by combining different multiples of 1, 10, 100, 1000, and so on, enhancing their number sense and understanding of numerical operations.

While the provided NCERT textbook content primarily focuses on the Indian Place Value System for reading and writing numbers, the chapter briefly mentions the American (International) system for comparison in one of the search snippets, but the main textual content extracted focuses on the Indian system.

Real-world examples, such as population figures, heights of monuments, and waterfalls, are used to help students relate abstract numerical concepts to tangible experiences. This makes it easier for them to grasp the magnitude of large numbers and their practical applications.
