Answer 1

The Decimal number system has following rules.

Suppose you have to write a number 4,567,892 .

2 -ones - (first period)

9-tens - (first period)

8-hundreds - (first period)

7-thousands  - (second period)

6-ten thousand- (second period)

5-hundred thousand- (second period)

4-million- (third period)

then comes ten million,hundred million and then Billion.

If a number is given you have to apply commas from left to right after every three places.

So, your number is 9,418.

8-first period

1--first period

4--first period

9- second period
