Question

How do you write 7,392,604 in words?

Answer 1

Hint: Now the given number is 7,392,604 and hence is in International Numbering form. We will first decompose the number check in which place does each digit fall. Then with the help of the decomposition we can easily write the given number in words.

Complete step-by-step solution:
Now we know that the first digit from the right is units place. Then according to International we will decompose the number in units, tens, hundreds, thousand, ten thousands, hundred thousand and million. Now we know that tens is 10, hundred is 100, ten thousand is 10,000 hundred thousand is 100000 and million is 1000000.
Hence we get the decomposition as,
\[7\times 1000000+3\times 100000+9\times 10000+2\times 1000+6\times 100+0\times 10+4\times 1\]
Hence if we write the number in words as per decomposition we get the number as.
Seven million, three hundred ninety two thousand, six hundred four.
Hence the given number is written as Seven million, three hundred ninety two thousand, six hundred four.

Note: Now note that we also have the Indian system in which we decompose the numbers as units, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands lakh and ten lakh. Hence if we decompose the given number according to Indian system we will get the number as 73 Lakh ninety two thousand, six hundred four. Note that in Indian system every two digits after thousands places are separated by a comma and in the International system every three digits are separated by a comma. Hence in Indian system the same number would have been written as 73,92,604.
