Question 13 Marks
Find the product of the largest 5-digit number and the largest 3-digit number using distributive law.
Answer
Largest five-digit number = 99999
Largest three-digit number = 999
By using distributive law, we have:
Product = 99999 × 999
= 99999 × (1000 - 1) [By using distributive law]
= 99999 × 1000 - 99999 × 1
= 99999000 - 99999
= 99899001
Alternate Answer
999 × 99999
= 999 × (100000 - 1) [By using distributive law]
= 999 × 100000 - 999 × 1
= 99900000 - 999
= 99899001

Question 33 Marks
Find the least 6-digit number exactly divisible by 83.
Answer
Least six-digit number = 100000
Here, dividend = 100000 and divisor = 83

In order to find the least 6-digit number exactly divisible by 83, we have to add 83 - 68 = 15 to the dividend.
I.e., 100000 + 15 = 100015
So, 100015 is the least six-digit number exactly divisible by 83.

Question 53 Marks
50 chairs and 30 blackboards were purchased for a school. If each chair costs Rs. 1065 and each blackboard cost Rs. 1645, find the total amount of the bill.
Answer
Cost of a chair = Rs. 1065
Cost of a blackboard = Rs. 1645
Cost of 50 chairs = 50 × 1065 = Rs. 53250
Cost of 30 blackboards = 30 × 1645 = Rs. 49350
Therefore, Total amount of the bill = cost of 50 chairs + cost of 30 blackboards
= Rs (53250 + 49350)
= Rs. 1,02,600

Largest four digit number = 9999
Therefore, Their difference = 1000000 - 9999
= 1000000 - 10000 + 1
= 1000001 - 10000
= 990001

Question 113 Marks
Mrs. Saxena withdrew Rs. 100000 from her bank account. She purchased a TV set for Rs. 38750, a refrigerator for Rs. 23890 and jewelry worth Rs. 35560. How much money was left with her?
Answer
Money withdrawn by Mrs. Saxena = Rs. 1,00,000
Cost of the TV set = Rs. 38,750
Cost of the refrigerator = Rs. 23,890
Cost of the jewellery = Rs. 35,560
Total money spent = Rs. (38750 + 23890 + 35560) = Rs. 98200
Now, money left = Money withdrawn - money spent
= Rs. (100000 - 98200)
= Rs. 1800
Therefore, Rs. 1,800 is left with Mrs. Saxena.

Question 123 Marks
On dividing 55390 by 299, the remainder is 75. Find the quotient using the division algorithm.
Answer
Here, Dividend = 55390, Divisor = 299 and Remainder = 75We have to find the quotient.
Now, Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
⇒ 55390 = 299 × Quotient + 75
⇒ 55390 - 75 = 299 × Quotient
⇒ 55315 = 299 × Quotient
⇒ Quotient = 55315 ÷ 299

Hence, quotient = 185

Question 213 Marks
Find the largest 4-digit number divisible by 16.
Answer
We have to find the largest four digit number divisible by 16.
The largest four-digit number = 9999
Therefore, dividend = 9999
Divisor = 16

Here, we get remainder = 15
Therefore, 15 must be subtracted from 9999 to get the largest four digit number that is divisible by 16.
i.e., 9999 - 15 = 9984
Thus, 9984 is the largest four-digit number that is divisible by 16.
