What to Focus On

  • Large numbers are common in daily life.
  • The Indian number system uses only ten symbols.
  • The order of reading and writing is Thousand, Hundred, Tens, Ones.
  • 14 = 1 Ten + 4 Ones.
  • 106 = 1 Hundred + 0 Tens + 6 Ones.
  • 1001 = 1 Thousand + 0 Hundred + 0 Tens + 1 Ones.
  • 10 ones = 1 ten.
  • 10 tens = 1 hundred.
  • 10 hundreds = 1 thousand.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The digits can be read in any order, so 7 Thousand 0 Hundreds 2 Tens 4 Ones can be written as 724.

Zero can be removed from the middle of a number because it does not matter.

A bigger digit always means a bigger number, no matter where it is placed.
