Question 1:
How many four-digit numbers are there in all?
Answer:
There are 10 digits i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8, 9.
We can not use '0' at thousand's place.
So, we can use only 9 digits at thousand's place.
Also, we can use 10 digits at hundrend's, 10 digits at ten's and 10 digits at unit's place.
So, total numbers of four-digit numbers = 9 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 9000
Page No 1.16:
Question 2:
Write the smallest and the largest six digit numbers. Howmany 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. Infact, 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 3:
How many 8-digit numbers are there in all?
Answer:
There are 10 digits i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8, 9.
We can not use '0' at the place having the highest place value in 8 digit numbers
So, we can use only 9 digits at the place having the highest place value in 8 digit numbers
Also, we can use 10 digits at the remaining places in 8 digit numbers
So, total numbers of 8-digit numbers = 9 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 90000000
Page No 1.16:
Question 4:
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 right most 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 2:
A box of medicine tablets contains 2,00,000 tablets each weighing 20 mg. What is the total weight of all the tablets in the box in grams? In kilograms?
Answer:
∵ Each tablet weighs = 20 mg
∴ The total weight of all the tablets in the box = 40,00,000 mg
∴ Weight of the box having all tablets = 40,00,000 ÷ 1,000 = 4,000 g
And, as 1 kg = 1,000 g
∴ Weight of the box having all tablets = 4,000 ÷ 1,000 = 4 kg

Population of Sundar nagar was 2,35,471 in the year 1991. In the year 2001 it was found to have increased by 72,958. What was the population of the city n 2001?
Answer:
The population of Sundar Nagar in 2001 = Sum of the population of city in 1991 + Increase in population over the given time period
∵ The population of Sundar Nagar in 1991 = 2,35,471
∵ Increase in population over the given time period = 72,958
∴ The population of Sundar Nagar in 2001 = 2,35,471 + 72,958 = 3,08,429

Answer:
Total number of tickets sold on all four days is the sum of the tickets sold on the first, second, third and final days.
∴ Total number of tickets sold on all four days = 1,094 + 1,812 + 2,050 + 2,751 = 7,707

Question 5:
The town newspaper is published everyday. One copy has 12 pages. Everyday 11,980 copies are printed. How many pages are in all printed everyday? Every months?
Answer:
∵ Number of pages in 1 copy of newspaper = 12
Thus, 1,43,760 pages are printed every day.
Now, number of pages printed every day = 1,43,760
∴ Number of pages printed in a month = 1,43,760 × 30 = 43,12,800
Thus, 43,12,800 pages are printed in a month.

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 = ₹78,592
He purchased 39 radio sets at ₹1,234 each.
∴ Money spent by him on purchasing 39 radio sets = ₹1,234 × 39 = ₹48,126
∴ Remaining money with Ravish after the purchase = Initial money − Money spent on purchasing 39 radio sets = ₹78,592 − ₹48,126 = ₹30,466

Question 9:
In an election, the successful candidate registered 5,77,570 votes and his nearest rival secured 3,48,685 votes. By what margin did the successful candidate win the election?
Answer:
Margin of victory in the election for the successful candidate = Number of votes registered by the winner − Number of votes secured by nearest rival candidate
Votes registered by the winner = 5,77,570
Votes secured by the rival = 3,48,685
∴ Margin of victory for the successful candidate = 5,77,570 − 3,48,685 = 2,28,885

Question 10:
To stitch a shirt 2 m 15 cm cloth is needed. Out of 40 m cloth, how many shirts can be stiched and how much cloth will ramain?
Answer:
∵ Total length of available cloth = 40 m = 4,000 cm (1 m = 100 cm)
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.
∴ Cloth required for stitching 18 shirts = 215 × 18 = 3870 cm
∴ Remaining cloth = 4,000 − 3870 = 130 cm = 1.3 m

Question 11:
A vessel has 4 litre and 650 ml of curd. In how many glasses, each of 25 ml capacity, can it be distributed?
Answer:
Number of glasses in which curd can be distributed = Total amount of curd/Capacity of each glass.
Total amount of curd in the vessel = 4,650 mL = 4,000 + 650 = 4,650 mL (1 L = 1,000 mL)
Capacity of each glass = 25 mL
∴ Number of glasses in which curd can be distributed = 4,650/25 = 186

Question 12:
Medicine is packed in boxes, each such box weighing 4 kg 500 g. How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 800 kg.
Answer:
∵ Total capacity of a van carrying boxes of medicines = 800 kg = 8,00,000 g (1 kg = 1,000 g)
∴ Total number of boxes that can be loaded in the van = 8,00,000/4,500 = 177.77
The obtained number of boxes is not a whole number.
∴ Weight of 177 boxes = 177 ´ 4,500 = 7,96,500 g (under permissible limit)
∴ Weight of 178 boxes = 178 ´ 4,500 = 8,01,000 g (beyond permissible limit)

Question 16:
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.

Hence, the required numbers are
505, 515, 525, 535, 545. 555, 565, 575, 585, 595.

Question 18:
Write (i) the smallest (ii) the largest 6 digit numbers having four different digits.
Answer:
(i) Four smallest digits are 0, 1,2 and 3. In order to generate the smallest 6-digit number using digits 0, 1, 2 and 3, we write the smallest non-zero digit at the place having the highest place value and the largest digit at the place having least place value. Thus, we put 1 in the left-most place and 3 in the right-most place. Digit 2 is put at ten's place and at all other places we write zero.
Hence, the required number = 100023.
(ii) To write the greatest 6-digit number having four different digits, we will have to use four largest digits. Clearly 9, 8, 7 and 6 are four largest digits. In order to write the largest 6-digit number using digits 6, 7, 8 and 9, we put the largest digit 9 at the place having the highest place value. The smallest digit 8 is put at the hundred's place, the smallest digit 6 is put at the right most place i.e. at unit's place and the digit 7 is put at the ten's place. All other places are filled by 9.
Hence, the required number = 999876.

5 occur 10 times
(ii) In units place, i.e., 15, 25, 35, 45, 55, 65, 75, 85, 95
5 occur 9 times
Page No 1.38:
Question 20:
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.

Four smallest digits are 0, 1,2 and 3. In order to write the smalest 4-digit number using digits 0, 1, 2 and 3, we put the smallest digit 1 (Except 0) at the place having the highest place value. The largest digit 3 is put at the right most place i.e. at unit's place, the digit 2 is put at the ten's place and the digit 0 is put at the hundred's place. Hence, the required largest number is 1023.
The smallest four digit number with four different digits is 1023 .

Question 25:
The total number of 5 digit numbers = ..................
Answer:
There are 10 digits i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8, 9.
We can not use '0' at the place having the highest place value.
So, we can use only 9 digits at the place having the highest place value.
Also, we can use 10 digits at the remaining places.
So, total numbers of four-digit numbers = 9 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 90000
The total number of 5 digit numbers = 90000
