Question

In \[782,341,693\] which digit is in ten thousand places?

Answer 1

Hint: In this question, given a whole number \[782,341,693\] . We need to find the number in ten thousand places. In the given number, the digit from the right is always in one's place . The digit on the left has a greater place value that is always greater than one's. Totally nine places are grouped into four periods namely ones, thousands, lakhs and crores. Firstly , We need to divide the given whole number according to the place value and then we need to find which number lies in ten thousand places.
Place value chart :
\[1\ - \text{one}\]
\[10\ - \text{ten}\]
\[100\ - \text{hundred}\]
\[1,000\ - \text{thousand}\]
\[10,000\ - \text{ten thousand}\]
\[100,000\ - \text{hundred thousand}\]
\[1,000,000\ - \text{million}\]
\[10,000,000\ - \text{ten million}\]
\[100,000,000\ - \text{hundred million}\]
\[1,000,000,000\ - \text{billion}\]

Complete step by step answer:
Given number,
\[782,341,693\]
Now we can divide the number according to the place value chart,
This number has
\[3\ - \text{one}\]
\[9\ - \text{ten}\]
\[6\ - \text{hundred}\]
\[1\ - \text{thousand}\]
\[4\ - \text{ten thousand}\]
\[3\ - \text{hundred thousand}\]
\[2\ - \text{million}\]
\[8\ - \text{ten million}\]
\[7\ - \text{hundred million}\]
Thus by checking the place chart value of the given number, the digit \[4\] is in the ten thousand places.
Thus we get \[4\] in ten thousand places.
Final answer :
The number \[4\] is in ten thousand places.

Note:
We know that totally nine places are grouped into four periods namely ones, thousands, lakhs and crores. We need to start from the right. The first period is one which consists of three place values namely ones, tens and hundreds. Next the second period is thousands which also consists of two place values namely thousands and ten thousands. The third period is lakhs which also consists of two place values namely lakhs and ten lakhs. Finally the fourth period is crores which consists of two place values namely crores and ten crores. We need to read the numbers that are read together with the name of the place value of the period except one period.
