Question 107

Question. 107

By reversing the order of digits of the greatest number made by five different non-zero digits, the new number is the ____ number of five digits.

Answer:

smallest

Detailed Answer with Explanation:

Step 1: To get the greatest 5-digit number using five different non-zero digits, choose the biggest digits and write them from largest to smallest.

Digits: \(9, 8, 7, 6, 5\)

Greatest number: \(98765\)

Step 2: Reverse the order (write it from right to left).

Reverse of \(98765\) is \(56789\)

Step 3: When the digits are in increasing order, the number is the smallest possible with those digits.

So, \(56789\) is the smallest 5-digit number made from these digits.

Conclusion: After reversing, we get the smallest 5-digit number.
