Question 13 Marks
Write 10075302 in words and rearrange the digits to get the smallest and the largest numbers.
Answer
One crore seventy-five thousand three hundred two:In order to write the smallest 8-digit number using digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7, we put the smallest digit 1 (Except 0) at the place having the highest place value. The largest digit 7 is put at the rightmost place i.e. at unit’s place, the digit 5 is put at the ten’s place, the digit 3 is put at the hundred’s place and the digit 2 is put at the thousand’s place. All other places are filled by 0. Hence, the required largest number is 10002357.
In order to write the largest 8-digit number using digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7, we put the largest digit 7 at the place having the highest place value. The smallest digit 5 is put at the place after the highest place value. We put the next smallest digit (i.e., 3) after the previous one. After it we place the next smallest digit (i.e., 2) and after that we put the digit 1. All other places are filled by 0. Hence, the required largest number is 75321000.

Question 23 Marks
A box of medicine tablets contains 2,00,000 tablets each weighing 20mg. what is the total weight of all the tablets in the box in grams? in kilograms?
Answer
Given data : Each tablet weighs = 20mg
Therefore, The weight of 2,00,000 tablets = 2,00,000 × 20 = 40,00,000mg
Therefore, The total weight of all the tablets in the box = 40,00,000mg
We know 1g = 1,000mg
Weight of the box having all tablets = 40,00,000 ÷ 1,000 = 4000g
And, as 1kg = 1,000g
Therefore, Weight of the box having all tablets = 4,000 ÷ 1,000 = 4000g = 4kg

Question 33 Marks
Write the greatest and the smallest numbers of 4 digits that can be formed using the digits 0, 8, 7, 5 ; using each digit only once.
Answer
In order to write the largest 4-digit number using digits 0, 5, 7 and 8, we put the largest digit 8 at the place having the highest place value. The smallest digit 0 is put at the right most place i.e. at unit's place, the digit 7 is put at the hundred's place and the digit 5 is put at the ten's place. Hence, the required largest number is 8750.
In order to write the smalest 4-digit number using digits 0, 5, 7 and 8, we put the smallest digit 5 (Except 0) at the place having the highest place value. The largest digit 8 is put at the right most place i.e. at unit's place, the digit 7 is put at the ten's place and the digit 0 is put at the hundred's place. Hence, the required largest number is 5078.

Question 43 Marks
Medicine in packed in boxes, each such boxes weighing 4kg 500g. How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 800 Kg?
Answer
As given in the question,
Total capacity of a van carrying boxes of medicines = 800kg = 8,00,000g (1kg = 1,00g)
As given in the question, Weight of each packed box
= 4,500g = 4,000 + 500 = 4,500g
Therefore, Total number of boxes that can be loaded in the van
$= \frac{8, 00,000}{4,500} = 177.77$
The obtained number of boxes is not a whole number.
Therefore, Weight of 177 boxes = 177 × 4,500 = 7,96,500g (under permissible limit)
Therefore, Weight of 178 boxes = 178 × 4,500 = 8,01,000g (beyond permissible limit)
Therefore, we can’t load 178 boxes; hence, we can say that 177 boxes can be loaded in the van.

Question 53 Marks
Estimate the product 475 × 225 rounding off each number to the nearest hundred.
Answer
In 475 the last two digits i.e., 75 is greater than 50.
Hence, 1 will be added to the 3rd last digit and the last two digits will become zero.
After rounding to nearest hundred we will get 500.
In 225 the last two digit i.e., 25 is less than 50.
Hence, the 3rd last will remain same and the last digit will become zero.
After rounding to nearest ten we will get 200.
Required product 500 × 200 = 1,00,000

Question 63 Marks
The town newspaper is published every day. One copy has 12 pages. Everyday 11,980 copies are printed. How many pages are in all printed every day? Every month?
Answer
As given in the question,
Number of pages in 1 copy of newspaper = 12
Therefore, Number of pages in 11,980 copies of newspaper
= 11, 980 × 12 = 1,43,760
Thus, 1,43,760 pages are printed every day.
Now, number of pages printed every day = 1,43,760
Therefore, Number of pages printed in a month = 1,43,760 × 30 = 43,12,800
Thus, 43,12,800 pages are printed in a month.

Question 83 Marks
To stitch a shirt 2m 15cm cloth is needed. Out of 40m cloth, how many shirts can be stitched and how much cloth will remain?
Answer
As given in the question, Total length of available cloth = 40m = 4,000cm (1m = 100cm)
As given in the question, Length of cloth required to stitch a shirt
= 215cm = 200 + 15 = 215cm
Therefore, The number of shirts that can be stitched from the 40-metre cloth
$= \frac{4,000}{215} = 18.60$
As the number of shirts has to be a whole number, we consider the whole part only. That is, 18 such shirts can be stitched.
Therefore, Cloth required for stitching 18 shirts = 215 × 18 = 3870cm. Therefore, Remaining cloth = 4,000 - 3870 = 130cm = 1.3m

Question 93 Marks
Write the greatest 6-digit number formed by three different digits.
Answer
To write the greatest 6-digit number having three different digits, we will have to use three largest digits. Clearly 9, 8 and 7 are three largest digits. In order to write the largest 6-digit number using digits 7, 8 and 9, we put the largest digit 9 at the place having the highest place value. The smallest digit
7 is put at the right most place i.e. at unit's place and the digit 8 is put at the ten's place. All other places are filled by 9.
Hence, the required number = 999987.

Question 103 Marks
Write the smallest and the largest six digit numbers. How many numbers are between these two.
Answer
The smallest digit is 0. But we cannot use 0 at the place having the highest place value in six digit numbers. So, we will use the second smallest digit i.e., 1. All other places are filled by 9.
Hence, the required number = 100000
Smallest six digit number will be 100000.
The largest digit is 9.
We can use 9 at any place. In fact, we can use 9 in all places in six digit numbers.
Hence, the required number = 999999
Largest six digit number will be 999999
Required difference = 999999 - 100000 = 899999
So, the total numbers between 999999 and 100000 will be 899998.

Question 113 Marks
Ravish has Rs. 78,592 with him. He placed an order for purchasing 39 radio sets at Rs. 1234 each. How much money will remain with him after the purchase?
Answer
Ravish’s initial money = Rs.78,592
He purchased 39 radio sets at Rs.1234 each.
Therefore, Money spent by him on purchasing 39 radio sets
= 1,234 × 39 = Rs. 48,126
Therefore, Remaining money with Ravish after the purchase = Initial money-Money spent on purchasing 39 radio sets = Rs. 78,592 - Rs. 48,126 = Rs. 30,466
Thus, 230,466 are left with him after the purchase.

Question 123 Marks
A vessel has 4 litre and 650ml of curd. In how many glasses, each of 25ml capacity, can it be distributed?
Answer
The number of glasses in which curd can be distributed = Total amount of curd/ Capacity of each glass.
Total amount of curd in the vessel = 4,650ml = 4,000 + 650 = 4,650ml
(1L = 1,000ml)
Capacity of each glass = 25ml
Therefore, Number of glasses in which curd can be distributed $= \frac{4,650}{25} = 186$
