In a particular year, a company manufactured 8570435 bicycles and next year it manufactured 8756430 bicycles. In which year more bicycles were manufactured and by how many?
Answer
Number of bicycles manufactured in the first year = 85,70,435.
Number of bicycles manufactured in the next year = 87,56,430.
Both numbers have 7 digits. Comparing from the leftmost digit:
The ten lakhs digit is 8 in both, the lakhs digit is 5 in 85,70,435 and 7 in 87,56,430.
Since 7 > 5, 87,56,430 > 85,70,435.
So, more bicycles were manufactured in the next year.
Difference = 87,56,430 - 85,70,435
= 1,85,995
Hence, more bicycles were manufactured in the next year, by 1,85,995.
