MCQ 31 Mark
$\frac{4}{5}$ of $5kg$ apples were used on Monday. The next day $\frac{1}{3}$ of what was left was used. Weight (in kg) of apples left now is:
  • A
    $\frac{8}{15}$
  • B
    $\frac{40}{3}$
  • $\frac{40}{5}$
  • D
    $\frac{8}{3}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{40}{5}$
Apples used on monady $=\frac{4}{5}\ \text{of}\ 5=\frac{4}{5}\times5=4\text{kg}$
Remaining apples $= 5 - 4 = 1kg$
Apples used next day $=\frac{1}{3}$ of remaining apples
$=\frac{1}{3}\times1\text{kg}=\frac{1}{3}\text{kg}$
So, weight of aplles left now
= Total apples-Apples use monday-Apples used next day
$=\big(-4-\frac{1}{3}\big)$
$=\frac{15-12-1}{3}$ $\big[\text{taking LCM}\big]$
$=\frac{2}{3}\text{kg}$

MCQ 171 Mark
One packet of biscuits requires $2\frac{1}{2}$ cups of flour and $1\frac{2}{3}$cups of sugar. Estimated total quantity of both ingredients used in $10$ such packets of biscuits will be.
  • A
    Less than $30$ cups.
  • B
    Between $30$ cups and $40$ cups.
  • Between $40$ cups and $50$ cups.
  • D
    Above $50$ cups.
Answer
Correct option: C.
Between $40$ cups and $50$ cups.
Total quantity of both ingredients in one packet of biscuits
= Quantity of flour + Quantity of sugar
$=2\frac{1}{2}\ \text{cups}+1\frac{2}{3}\text{cups}$
$=\frac{(2\times2)+1}{2}+\frac{(1\times3)+2}{3}$
$-\frac{4+1}{2}+\frac{3+2}{3}$
$=\frac{5}{2}+\frac{5}{3}$
$=\frac{5\times3+2\times5}{6}$ $\big[\because\ \text{LCM of 2 and 3 = 6}\big]$
$=\frac{15+10}{6}$
$=\frac{25}{6}$
$\therefore$ Total quantity of both ingredients used in $10$ packets
$= 10 \times$  Total quantity of ingredients in one packet
$=10\times\frac{25}{6}=\frac{250}{6}$
Since, $\frac{250}{6}$ lies between $40$ and $50$.

MCQ 181 Mark
The ascending arrangement of $\frac{2}{3},\frac{6}{7},\frac{13}{21}$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{6}{7},\frac{2}{3},\frac{13}{21}$
  • $\frac{13}{21},\frac{2}{3},\frac{6}{7}$
  • C
    $\frac{6}{7},\frac{13}{21},\frac{2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3},\frac{6}{7},\frac{13}{21}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{13}{21},\frac{2}{3},\frac{6}{7}$
Given, $\frac{2}{3},\frac{6}{7},\frac{13}{21}$
$LCM$ of $(3, 7, 21) = 21$
$\therefore\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{7}{7}=\frac{14}{21}$
$\frac{6}{7}=\frac{6}{7}\times\frac{3}{3}=\frac{18}{21}$
and $\frac{13}{21}=\frac{13}{21}$
Now, compare $\frac{14}{21},\frac{18}{21}\text{and}\frac{13}{21}$
$\text{So},\frac{13}{21}<\frac{14}{21}<\frac{18}{21}$
Hence, $\frac{13}{21}<\frac{2}{2}<\frac{96}{7}$ (ascending order)
Note with same denominators, fraction with larger numerator is greater.
