Eight-digit Numbers



               Now let us learn numbers bigger than 7 digits.

               We know that the largest 7–digit number is 9999999. Let us find its successor.


               To do this we add 1 to 99 99 999


                                                  TL     L    T.Th   Th      H     T      O

                                                  9      9     9      9      9     9      9

                                                  +                                       1

                                            1     0      0     0      0      0     0      0



               We get a new place value.

               We will call it crores place.


               We write C for it.

               10000000 is read as one crore.


               It is the smallest eight digit number.

               Largest 8 digit number is 99999999.


               Eight digit numbers can be grouped into crores, ten lakhs, lakhs, ten
               thousands,  thousands, hundreds, tens and ones.


                                                    Nine-digit Numbers


               Now let us learn numbers bigger than 8 digits.


               We know that largest 8-digit number is 99999999. Let us find its successor.


               To do this we add 1 to 99999999.
