Question

write the place value of the underlined digits according to the international and indian system

Answer 1

In the Indian system of numeration, starting from the right, the first period is ones, consisting of three place values (ones, tens, and hundreds). The next period is thousands, consisting of two place values (thousands and ten thousands). The third period from the right is lakhs, consisting of two place values (lakhs and ten lakhs), and then crores and so on. This system of numeration is also known as the Hindu-Arabic system of numeration. We use commas’ for separating the periods, which help us in reading and writing large numbers. In the Indian system, the first comma comes after three digits from the right (i.e., after ones period) and the next comma comes after the next two digits {i.e., after thousands period) and then after every two digits and so on.
