Question 1.
In a particular year, a company manufactured 8570435 bicycles and next year it manufactured 8756430 bicycles. In which year more bicycles were manufactured and by how many?
Solution:
Production of bicycles in a particular year
= 85,70,435
Production of bicycles in a next year
= 87,56,430
