As per the census of 2001, the population of four states are given below

$\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{(a)}& \text{Maharashtra}& 96878627\\ & \text{(b)}& \text{Andhra Pradesh}& 76210007\\ & \text{(c)}& \text{Bihar}& 82998509\\ & \text{(d)}& \text{Uttar Pradesh}& 166197921\end{array}$

Arrange the states in ascending and descending order of their populations.

Answer 1

On arranging the population of four states in ascending order, we got

76210007 < 82998509 < 96878627 < 166197921

(Andhra Pradesh) (Bihar) (Maharashtra) (Uttar Pradesh)

Again, rearranging the population of four states in descending order, we get

166197921 > 96878627 > 82998509 > 76210007

(Uttar Pradesh) (Maharashtra) (Bihar) (Andhra Pradesh)
