Comparison of numbers:

Compare the digits from left to right in order to compare and arrange the numbers. Understand
the terms predecessor and successor in arranging numbers.

e.g., Predecessor of 2,31,478  is 2,31,477. Thus subtract 1 to find the predecessor of a number.

        Successor of 6,00,123  is 6,00,124. Thus add 1 to find the successor of a number.

As man progressed the need


to represent larger circle of things around him grew. Different places developed their own
way of representing numbers which lead to confusion and thus uniformity in number system
was important to be initiated. Thus the common number system used across the world is the
International number system. The more common number system used in our country is the
Indian Number system. This chapter deals with the place value, representation of numbers up
to 99 lakhs in Indian system and up to 9 million in International system and comparison of
large numbers.
