If the digits at hundreds place are also same in the two numbers, then what
do we do?
Compare 4875 and 4889 ; Also compare 4875 and 4879.
1. Use the given digits without repetition and make the greatest and smallest 4-digit
numbers.
(a) 2, 8, 7, 4 (b) 9, 7, 4, 1 (c) 4, 7, 5, 0
(d) 1, 7, 6, 2 (e) 5, 4, 0, 3
(Hint : 0754 is a 3-digit number.)
2. Now make the greatest and the smallest 4-digit numbers by using any one
digit twice.
(a) 3, 8, 7 (b) 9, 0, 5 (c) 0, 4, 9 (d) 8, 5, 1
(Hint : Think in each case which digit will you use twice.)
3. Make the greatest and the smallest 4-digit numbers using any four different
digits with conditions as given.
(a) Digit 7 is always at Greatest 9 8 6 7
ones place
Smallest 1 0 2 7
(Note, the number cannot begin with the digit 0. Why?)
(b) Digit 4 is always Greatest 4
at tens place
Smallest 4
(c) Digit 9 is always at Greatest 9
hundreds place
Smallest 9
(d) Digit 1 is always at Greatest 1
thousands place 3
Smallest 1
