There are 900 million numbers with 9 digits.
Understanding 9-Digit Numbers
Let's explore what defines a 9-digit number and how we arrive at the total count:
- Smallest 9-digit number: The smallest 9-digit number is 100,000,000. This number is read as ten crores in the Indian place-value system and one hundred million in the International system.
- Largest 9-digit number: The largest 9-digit number is 999,999,999.
Calculation of 9-Digit Numbers
The range of 9-digit numbers spans from 100,000,000 to 999,999,999. To determine the total count, you can subtract the smallest 9-digit number from the number that directly precedes the smallest 10-digit number, which is the same as the largest 9-digit number. This gives us:
999,999,999 - 100,000,000 + 1 = 900,000,000
Therefore, there are exactly 900,000,000 nine-digit numbers.
