12+35

A.

4.50

B.

1.10

C.

4.20

D.

0.5

SOLUTION

Solution : B

Decimal form of 12=0.5
Decimal form of 35=0.6

           0.50                + 0.60–––––                1.10–––

Question 2

What fraction in total do the shaded regions represent?

A.

78

B.

32

C.

98

D.

58

SOLUTION

Solution : B

The first part of the figure has a circle divided into 8 parts and 5 parts of it are shaded.

 Fraction=58
 

The second part of the figure has a circle divided into 8 parts and 7 parts of it are shaded.

 Fraction=78

Sum=58+78=5+78=128

But, 128=12÷48÷4=32.

The required sum is 32.

Question 3

Find the unknown value.

0.340.2=?

A.

0.17

B.

0.07

C.

1.74

D.

1.70

SOLUTION

Solution : D

We multiply the numerator and denominator of 0.340.2 by 100 to convert them into whole numbers.

0.34×1000.20×100=3420=1710=1.7=1.70

Question 4

Identify the option that has the correct decimal and fraction representation of the shaded region below.

A.

2

B.

6.25

C.

4

D.

5

SOLUTION

Solution : B

Total miles travelled = 156.25
Number of days they ran = 25 days 

Miles they run in a day = 156.25 ÷ 25

So, they ran for 6.25 miles per day for 25 days.

Question 8

Raj bought some sweets. The weighing machine at the shop read 0.25kg. He weighed the sweets again at home, and the reading was 0.250kg. Then:

A.

Machine at shop was faulty

B.

The value remains the same if zero is after the numbers.

Question 9

What should be the size of piece that would fit in the unknown region?

A.

112

B.

116

C.

312

D.

316

SOLUTION

Solution : A

34+16
To add the 2 fractions, we need to find the LCM of 4 and 6
 

LCM of 4 and 6 = 12

34+16=3×34×3+1×26×2=9+212=1112

To find the missing piece, 
=11112=121112=112

Question 10

Arrange 13,16,12,17 in ascending order:

A.

12,13,16,17

B.

17,16,13,12

C.

12,16,13,17

D.

17,12,13,16

SOLUTION

Solution : B

17=0.14,16=0.16,13=0.33,12=0.5 

or

17,16,13,12 

Since the numerators are the same, bigger the denominator smaller the fraction.

7 > 6 > 3 > 2
