๐Ÿ“˜ Class-6 Chapter Whole Numbers โ€“ Exercise 2.6 Large Numbers & Patterns (Application of Whole Numbers) (Worksheet 50 Questions)

๐Ÿ” What this Exercise Covers

Exercise 2.6 is the final application-based exercise of the chapter. It includes:

  • Working with large whole numbers
  • Using patterns and properties together
  • Applying concepts in real-life situations
  • Developing logical reasoning

๐Ÿ”ข 1. Working with Large Numbers

Whole numbers can be very large:

๐Ÿ‘‰ Example:
1,000 โ†’ 10,000 โ†’ 1,00,000

๐Ÿ“Œ Important:

  • Place value understanding is useful
  • Numbers keep increasing infinitely

๐Ÿ”„ 2. Using Properties for Big Calculations

Instead of direct multiplication, use smart methods:

Example:

  • 99 ร— 6 = (100 ร— 6) โˆ’ (1 ร— 6)
    = 600 โˆ’ 6 = 594

๐Ÿ‘‰ Faster and easier


๐Ÿง  3. Pattern Observation

Example:

  • 1 ร— 9 + 2 = 11
  • 12 ร— 9 + 3 = 111
  • 123 ร— 9 + 4 = 1111

๐Ÿ‘‰ Pattern builds numbers


๐Ÿ“Œ 4. Key Learning

  • Break big numbers into smaller parts
  • Use distributive property
  • Observe patterns carefully
