Question 398010: Choose between the numbers 0, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to make the largest four digit natural number in terms of value that you can. The number 078 has two digits. The number 00045 has two digits. Choose between the same numbers to make the smallest four digit number in terms of value that you can. Does your answer change if you are allowed to repeat digits? What are the two numbers? How does the concept of place value set the foundation for your decisions?

Largest # is 6543, Largest # with repeated digits is 6666
Smallest # is 2034, smallest # with repeated digits is 2000

Note that the first digit cannot be zero. The basic algorithm is to place the largest digits first to obtain the largest number, vice versa for the smallest number.
