Solution

Given, population of India in 1961 = 439 million
= 439 $\times$ 1000000 = 439000000 [ $∵$ 1 million = 1000000]
and population of India in 2001 = 1028 million
= 1028 $\times$ 1000000 = 1028000000 [ $∵$ 1 million = 1000000]
$∴$ Total increase in population from 1961 to 2001
= Population in 2001 - Population in 1961
= 1028000000 - 439000000 = 589000000
= 589 $\times$ 1000000 = 589 million
So, the increase in population according to the Indian System of Numeration = 58,90,00,000.
