There are always one odd and one even no. And the question is odd no. Between 1 to 10000
So we have to find no. Between 1 to 10000 so we should not includes 1
10000/2 -1=4999 is the answer

Suhit  (9 years ago)

total odd no - 5000
no of odd digits are
1- 10 = 5
11-20 - 14
21-30 - 5
31 - 40 = 14
41-50 = 5
51 - 60 = 14
61 - 70 = 5
71 - 80 = 14
81 - 90 = 5
91 - 99 = 14

1digit - 5
2digit - 45*2
3 digit- 450*3
4 digit - 4500*3
total - 14945

a=1,d=2,
now, 1000=1+(n-1)2, 999=1+(n-1)2,n=998/2+1,n=1000/2
n=500

1digit - 5
2digit - 45*2
3 digit- 450*3
4 digit - 4500*3
total - 14945

garima gupta  (8 years ago)

last odd no will be 9999 so 9999=1+(n-1)2 (AP with d=2 and tn=9999)
n==5000 odd no's
second part :
no of odd number of digits .
1....9=9
100......999=900
10000
so total no of odd no of digits =9+900+1=910

abhishek  (8 years ago)

nos of odd numbers bw 1-10=5
nos of odd numbers bw 11-99 can be calculated as:
11, 13 , 15,....99 so 99=11+(n-1)2 .... therefore n =45.
similarly for 100-999 it will be 450
and for 1000-10000 it will be 4500.
So the total nos of odd numbers are 5+45+450+4500=5000

number of terms n=(L-a)/d+1
n=(9999-1)/2+1=5000

palak tandon  (8 years ago)

l=a+(n-1)*d
1+3+5+...........+9999
9999=1+(n-1)2
9998/2=(n-1)
4999+1=n
n=5000

alka patel  (8 years ago)

First we have to find out how many odd no are there I.e.
10000/2=5000
Then next step is to find out the no of odd no which have odd no of digit
1: from 1 to 9 we have 5 odd no.
2: from 101 to 999 then we have--
999=101+(n-1)*2
n= 450
3: next term will start from 10001 but it is greater than 10000
So ans = 450+5= 455

4998 odd no. possible b/w 1 to 10000

total no of digits in odd no.s are 161500

total no. of odd digits in odd no.s are 17500

atul pandey  (8 years ago)

it's very simple. the given question is seem to be an a.p. because odd numbers come alternatively.
that's why.
Solution:-
let the first term a=1, common difference d=2 last term l=9999
using formula Tn=a+(n-1)*d
9999=1+(n-1)*2
n=5000
so the number of odd digits will be 5000.

1 TO 10 there are 5 ODD NO.'S and 1 to 100 there are 25 odd digit no.
and 100 to 200 againly 25 odd digit no.
200 to 300 no. odd digit no.
300-400 againly 25
500-600 againly 25
700-800 againly 25
900-1000 aganily 25
such that 1 to 1000 there are 5 series each contain 25 odd digit no.'s so 1000 to 2000 also there are 5 series each contain 25 odd digit no. and 3000 to 4000 same thing will happen
so conclusion is that the total odd digit no. is 1 to 1000 numbers are 125
so 1 to 10000 number is = 125+125+125+125+125+125=750.

The no of odd no between 1 and 10000 is-(10000÷2)-1=4999
and no of odd no of digits-:9+900+1=910

First question understand--- find out the number of odd number of digits means - digits are odd
odd digit - 1,3,5,7,9---total five digits--5 odd numbers
2 digits --- 5*5=25 ways
3 digits--- 5*5*5=125 ways
4 digits --5*5*5*5=625 ways
so 5+25+125+625= 780 numbers

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes | No   

shubham kumar maurya  (5 years ago)

there are odd no from 0-9{1,3,5,7,9}
1 digit no are =5
2 digit no are =5*5=25
3 digit no are=5*5*5=125
4 digit no are=5*5*5*5=625
total no are =5+25+125+625=780
