The product of the greatest four-digit and five-digit numbers 999890001.
Given:
The greatest four-digit and five-digit numbers.
To Find:
The product of the greatest four-digit and five-digit numbers.
Solution:
The distributive property of multiplication over subtraction is given below:
If a, b, and c are three numbers, the ax(b-c) = (axb)-(axc)
The greatest four-digit and five-digit numbers can be found by placing the highest digit in each of its places.
Hence, the greatest four-digit and five-digit numbers are 9999 and 99999 respectively.
We can write 99999 as (100000 - 1)
Now, 9999 x 99999 = 9999 x (100000 - 1)
Using the distributive property of multiplication over subtraction, we have:
9999x99999 = 9999x(100000 - 1) = (9999x100000)-(9999x1)
⇒ 9999x99999 = 999900000-9999 = 999890001.
Hence, the product of the greatest four-digit and five-digit numbers is 999890001.
