• 10. Will ₹10,000 be sufficient to buy the big bicycle and the small bicycle? (Page 52)
  Answer:

  Cost of big bicycle = ₹5100
  Cost of small bicycle = ₹3850
  
  ₹5100 + ₹3850 = ₹8950
  
  Since ₹8950 is less than ₹10,000, the amount is sufficient.
  
  Therefore, ₹10,000 is sufficient.

• 11. What is the estimated amount needed to buy the two bicycles? (Page 54)
  Answer:

  ₹5100 rounded to the nearest thousand = ₹5000
  ₹3850 rounded to the nearest thousand = ₹4000
  
  ₹5000 + ₹4000 = ₹9000
  
  Therefore, the estimated amount is ₹9000.
• 12. Which pairs of train compartments have a sum greater than 8000? (Page 56)
  Answer:

  Examples of pairs whose sums are greater than 8000 are:
  
  5329 + 1923 = 7252 — not greater than 8000
  7326 + 861 = 8187 — greater than 8000
  4932 + 3210 = 8142 — greater than 8000
  6297 + 2134 = 8431 — greater than 8000

IMPROVE YOUR LEARNING

• 1. Find the values of the square and circle in the magic square. (Page 68)
  Answer:

  Each row, column and diagonal must have the same sum.
  
  First row: 12 + 7 + 8 = 27
  Second row: 5 + 9 + 13 = 27
  
  First column:
  12 + 5 + □ = 27
  □ = 27 − 17
  □ = 10
  
  Third row:
  10 + ● + 6 = 27
  ● = 27 − 16
  ● = 11
  
  Therefore, □ = 10 and ● = 11.
• 2. A machine adds 4728 to the number that is put in. If the final output is 6000, what number was entered? (Page 68)
  Answer:

  Entered number + 4728 = 6000
  
  Entered number = 6000 − 4728
  = 1272
  
  Therefore, the number entered was 1272.
• 3. Rafi has to add 354 and 462, but he adds 354 + 452 = 806. What should be done to correct his mistake? (Page 68)
  a) Add 10

  b) Subtract 10

  c) Add 1

  d) Subtract 1
  Answer:

  Correct sum = 354 + 462 = 816
  Wrong sum = 806
  
  Difference = 816 − 806 = 10
  
  Therefore, he should add 10.
  Correct option: a) Add 10.
• 4. Which pan of the weighing balance would go down? (Page 68)
  a) Pan A would go down.

  b) Pan B would go down.

  c) Both pans would stay at the same level.

  d) Pan A would go down because it has more stones.
  Answer:

  Pan A:
  1530 + 2435 + 1045 = 5010 g
  
  Pan B:
  2000 + 3005 = 5005 g
  
  Since 5010 g is greater than 5005 g, Pan A would go down.
  Correct option: a).
• 5. In a village there are 2525 males. The number of females is 250 more than the number of males. What is the total population? (Page 68)
  Answer:

  Male population = 2525
  Female population = 2525 + 250 = 2775
  
  Total population = 2525 + 2775
  = 5300
  
  Therefore, the total population is 5300.
• 6. Create a receipt for three items where the total is exactly ₹9246. One item must cost ₹5397. (Page 68)
  Answer:

  One possible receipt is:
  
  Item 1 = ₹5397
  Item 2 = ₹2000
  Item 3 = ₹1849
  ----------------
  Total = ₹9246
  
  ₹5397 + ₹2000 + ₹1849 = ₹9246.
