6-Digit Numbers | Smallest 6-Digit Number

Here we will learn 6-digit numbers, formation of 6-digit numbers, place value and face value of 6-digit numbers, successor of 6-digit numbers, predecessors of 6-digit numbers, the smallest 6-digit number and the greatest 6-digit number.

We know that 99999 is the greatest 5-digit number.

Now, let us see what number we get by adding 1 to it.

On adding 1 to 99999, we get 100000. We read it as ten thousand.

100000 is the smallest 6-digit number.

To write a 6-digit number, we take the next place value on left of thousands called Lakhs (L).

These 6-digit numbers after 10000 can be obtained by adding 1.

For example:

100000 + 1 = 100001 (One lakh one)

100001 + 1 = 100002 (One lakh two)

100002 + 1 = 100003 (One lakh three)

109999 + 1 = 110000 (One lakh ten thousand)

199999 + 1 = 200000 (Two lakh)

499999 + 1 = 500000 (Five lakh)

500000 + 1 = 500001 (Five lakh one)

999998 + 1 = 999999 (Nine lakh ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine)

The greatest 6-digit number is 999999.
