Question

17. Write the greatest and the smallest 4-digit numbers using four different digits

Answer 1

Answer:

Greatest number = 9867

Smallest number = 1027

Step-by-step explanation:

Greatest number:

- - - 7

In order to form the greatest number, we should simply put the greatest available digit at the thousands place, the second greatest at the hundreds place and the third greatest at the tens place (which would be 9, 8, and 6 respectively).

9867

Smallest number:

- - - 7

In order to form the greatest number, we should simply put the lowest available digit at the thousands place (excluding zero since a number can't start with a zero), put zero at the hundreds place and the third lowest at the tens place (which would be 1, 0, and 2 respectively).

1027
