Cour differe​

Answer 1

answer:

The answer is (D) 10,000 Lakhs

explanation:

According to Indian numbering system ,

1 lakh is nothing but 1 followed by 5 zeros

i.e, 1,00,000.

Similarly according to International numbering system,

1 billion is nothing but 1 followed by 9 zeros

i.e, 1,000,000,000.

hence,

1,000,000,000 = 10,000 * 1,00,000

that implies -

1 billion = 10,000 lakhs.

Alternatively 100 lakhs is equal to 1 crore according to Indian numbering system.

hence,

10,000 lakhs = 100 * 100 lakhs = 100 crores.

1 billion = 100 crores.
