18. Answer this.
Around 4, 163, 045 vehicles from
the country emit pollution that causes
different respiratory illnesses. Draw
the correct beads in the blank abacus
given below. Also show the given
number using number discs.
19. How do we visualize numbers up
to 10 000 000?
Aside from number discs
which can be used to show
numbers from 1 000 001 to 10
000 000, we can also manipulate
the abacus to visualize them.
20. Using number discs,
show the following
numbers.
1. 3 718 000
2. 2 024 123
3. 10 000 000
4. 4 120 572
5. 5 004 036
