Answer 1

Hint: In order to write one lakh eight thousand in number , go through the Indian place value chart .
Then write one lakh in numbers , also write eight thousand similarly. After that add both the numbers and you will get the required answer.

Complete step by step solution:
According to the Indian place value system, the number name one lakh eight thousand can be written as \[1,08,000\].
We know that , observing any number from the right side we get:
\[ \bullet \] \[{1^{st}}\] number = ones
\[ \bullet \] \[{2^{nd}}\] number = tens
\[ \bullet \] \[{3^{rd}}\] number = hundreds
\[ \bullet \] \[{4^{th}}\] number = thousands
\[ \bullet \] \[{5^{th}}\] number = ten thousands
\[ \bullet \] \[{6^{th}}\] number = lakhs
\[ \bullet \] \[{7^{th}}\] number = ten lakhs
\[ \bullet \] \[{8^{th}}\] number = crores
So for one lakh eight thousand we have ,
One lakh= \[1,00,000\] , And
Eight thousand = \[8,000\]
Therefore,
\[1,00,000 + 8,000 = 1,08,000\]
So, the correct answer is “1,08,000”.

Note: Place value - In the Indian numeral system, a place value chart is a table that is used to determine the value of each digit in a number based on its position. Numbers are employed in mathematics for counting, measures, and comparisons. Each digit in a number has its own value based on where it falls on the place value chart.
 The positioning of separators (commas) and the nomenclature of distinct place values are the fundamental differences between the Indian and International numeration systems. We count in units of ones, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions, and billions using the International Numerical System.
