100000 = 100 x 1000

So, one hundred thousands is the answer.

(b) 1 million = _______ hundred thousand.

1000000 consists of 6 zeroes.

1000000 = 10 x 100000

So, the answer is ten hundred thousand.

(c) 1 crore = _______ ten lakh.

10000000 consists of 7 zeroes

10000000 = 10 x 1000000

So, the answer is 10 ten lakh.

(d) 1 million = _______ lakh.

Example 6 :

The models represent the price for a pound of grapes at four different stores. Each model is shaded to represent a price that is greater than $1.00.

Which stores have a price greater than $1.60 but less than $1.90 for a pound of grapes?

Solution :

Price in Store L = $1.88

Price in Store M = $1.07

Price in Store N = $1.78

Price in Store P = $1.99

$1.60 < $1.78 < $1.88 < $1.90

Store N and store L only, option c is correct.

Example 7 :

Which mixed number is equivalent to 17.04?

a) 17   4/10      b) 17 1/4      c) 17   40/10      d) 17   4/100.

10 x 100 = 1000

So, the digit 6 in the number 6419 is 100 times greater than the digit 6 in the number 84362.
