Exercise 1(B) page no: 10
1. Population of a city was 354976 in the year 2014. In the year 2015, it increased by 68438. What was the population of the city at the end of the year 2015?
Solution:
Population of a city in the year 2014 = 354976
Population increased in the year 2015 = 68438
Total population at the end of the year 2015 = 354976 + 68438 = 423414
2. A = 743000 and B = 800100. Which is greater A or B? And by how much?
Solution:
Given
A = 743000
B = 800100
B is greater than A i.e. (B > A)
Since both the numbers have 6-digits numbers
At the leftmost, the first number has 7 and the second number has 8
We know that,
8 > 7
Hence, 800100 > 743000 i.e B > A
B is greater than A by = 800100 – 743000
= 57100
3. A notebook has 56 pages. How many pages will 5326 such note-books have?
Solution:
Given
Number of pages in a note-book = 56 pages
Number of pages in 5326 note-books = 5326 × 56
= 298256 pages
4. A person has 75000 sheets of paper. If each sheet makes 8 pages of a note book, how many note-books of 200 pages can be made using the above sheets?
Solution:
Given
Number of sheets of paper available = 75000
Number of pages obtained from one sheet of paper = 8
Total number of pages obtained = 8 × 75000
= 600000
We know that,
Number of notebooks made = (Total number of pages obtained) / (Number of pages contained by notebook)
= (600000) / (200)
= 3000
5. Add 176209; 450923; and 4483947
Solution:
Sum of 176209 + 450923 + 4483947 = 5111079
Therefore adding these values we get = 5111079
6. A cricket player has so far scored 7849 runs in test matches. He wishes to complete 10000 runs, how many more runs does he need?
Solution:
Given
A cricket player scored = 7849 runs
Total score he wish to complete = 10000
Runs required = 10000 – 7849 = 2151 runs
Hence, a cricket player needs 2151 more runs to complete 10000 runs
7. In an election two candidates A and B are the only contestants. If candidate A scored 932567 votes and candidate B scored 900235 votes, by how much margin did A win or lose the election?
Solution:
Votes scored by candidate A = 932567
Votes scored by candidate B = 900235
Since votes scored by candidate A is more than B. Hence, candidate A win the election
Candidate A win the election by margin = 932567 – 900235
= 32332 votes
8. Find the difference between the largest and the smallest five digits numbers that can be formed using the digits 5, 1, 6, 3 and 2 without repeating any digit.
Solution:
The given digits are = 5, 1, 6, 3 and 2
Using these digits 5, 1, 6, 3 and 2, the largest 5-digit number that can be formed = 65321
Using these digits 5, 1, 6, 3 and 2 the smallest 5-digit number that can be formed = 12356
Difference between 65321 and 12356
= 65321 – 12356
= 52965
9. A machine manufactures 5782 screws every day. How many screws will it manufacture in the month of April?
Solution:
Number of screws manufactured in a day = 5782
Number of days in April = 30 days
Number of screws manufactured in April = 5782 × 30
= 173460
Hence, a machine manufactures 173460 screws in the month of April
10. A man has ₹ 157184 with him. He placed an order for purchasing 80 articles at ₹ 125 each. How much money will remain with him after the purchase?
Solution:
A man has = ₹ 157184
Number of articles purchased by him = 80
Cost of one article = ₹ 125
Cost of 80 articles will be = 80 × 125
= ₹ 10000
Remaining money with him after the purchase = Money in hand – Cost of 80 articles
= 157184 – 10000
= 147184
11. A student multiplied 8035 by 87 instead of multiplying by 78. By how much was his answer greater than or less than the correct answer?
Solution:
Correct answer = 8035 × 87
= 699045
Wrong answer = 8035 × 78
= 626730
Hence, correct answer greater than the wrong answer by = 699045 – 626730
= 72315
12. Mohani has 30 m cloth and she wants to make some shirts for her son. If each shirt requires 2 m 30 cm cloth, how many shirts, in all, can be made and how much length of cloth will be left?
Solution:
Total length of cloth available with Mohani = 30 m
= 30 × 100
= 3000 cm
Each shirt requires = 2 m 30 cm
= 200 cm + 30 cm
= 230 cm cloth
Shirts made by using 30 m cloth = (1 / 230) × 3000
= 13.04
= 13 shirts
Cloth required to make 13 shirts = 230 × 13
= 2990 cm or 29 m 90 cm
∴ Remaining cloth = 30 m – 29 m
= 1 m
13. The weight of a box is 4 kg 800 gm. What is the total weight of 150 such boxes?
Solution:
Weight of a box = 4 kg 800 gm
Total weight of 150 such boxes = 4 kg 800 g × 150
= 720 kg
Hence, the total weight of 150 such boxes is 720 kg
14. The distance between two places A and B is 3 km 760 m. A boy travels from A to B and then B to A every day. How much distance does he travel in 8 days?
Solution:
Distance between two places A and B = 3 km 760 m
= 3760 m
Distance between A to B and B to A = 2 × 3760 m
= 7520 m
Distance travelled by a boy in 8 days = 7520 × 8
= 60160 m
= 60.16 km
15. An oil-tin contains 6 litre and 60 ml oil. How many identical bottles can this oil fill, if capacity of each bottle is 30 ml?
Solution:
An oil-tin contains = 6 litre 60 ml
= 6 × 1000 + 60
= 6060 ml
Capacity of each bottle = 30 ml
Number of bottles can be filled with 30 ml oil = 6060 ÷ 30
= 202 bottles
