Answer: 943,212

Explanation:

Suppose that you want to know the value of a given digit in a given number, where the digit is x.

Now, you should count the position of this digit, starting at the decimal point and counting to the left.

This position, a number n, will give the value of our digit as:

Value = x*10^(n-1)

in the number 893,417 the digit 9 is in the fifth place (counting from right to left).

Then the value of this 9 is:

9*10^(5 - 1) = 90,000

Now, if we want something ten times larger than this, we have:

N = 10*90,000 = 900,000

Now the 9 is in the sixth place, then we must find a number with a 9 in the sixth place, for example, 943,212.
