Introduction

If we add 1 to the greatest 6-digit number, we get the smallest 7-digit number. It is called the ten lakh.

Greatest 6-digit number + 1 = Smallest 7-digit number (i.e., ten lakh).
9,99,999+1 =10,00,000
or
We multiply 1,00,000 by 10.  That means we write one zero after the number to be multiplied.
1,00,000 × 10 = 10,00,000
This becomes a seven-digit number. We read it as ‘ten lakh’. We must make one more place for the 10 lakhs to the left of the lakhs place. In Western countries, the term million is used. One million is equal to ten lakhs.
Thus, ten lakh = 10,00,000.

Pattern:

9 + 1 = 10.
99 + 1 = 100.
999 + 1 = 1000.
9,999 + 1 = 10,000.
99,999 + 1 =1,00,000.
9,99,999 + 1 = 10,00,000.
99,99,999 + 1 = 1,00,00,000.

Reading and Writing seven-digit numbers

Reading Seven-Digit Numbers:
We read 18,35,614 as "eighteen lakh thirty-five thousand six hundred and fourteen." Just as we read ten thousand and thousands together, we similarly read ten lakhs and lakhs together.

  1. 31,25,745: thirty-one lakh, twenty-five thousand, seven hundred and forty-five.
