4 5 6 8 2 7 4 9 3

Same digits

At the ten thousands place, 7 > 2, 2
∴ 456872943 is the greatest number among the three

given numbers.

Also, we see in the table at the hundreds place, 4 < 9
∴ 456827493 is the smallest number.

Thus, the numbers in ascending order are:

456827493 < 456827943 < 456872943
or 456827493, 456827943, 456872943

Example 19: Arrange the following numbers in descending order.
34896524 3974652 100827465 100824783

Solution: At first, count the number of digits of the given numbers.

34896524 3974652 100827465 100824783

(8 digits) (7 digits) (9 digits) (9 digits)

∴ 3974652 is the smallest and 34896524 is the second

smallest number.
Now, compare the numbers having 9 digits.

TC C TL L TTh Th H T O TC C TL L TTh Th H T O
i.e., 1 0 0 8 2 7 4 6 5 1 0 0 8 2 4 7 8 3

From TC to TTh, both the numbers have same digits. At

the thousands place, 7 > 4

∴ 100827465 is the greatest number out of the four given
numbers.
