Question 5
Vignesh bought 10 notebooks from the market and the cost was Rs.10 per notebook. Gautam got 7 notebooks of the same type.
A: Vignesh calculated the total amount like this: 10×10+10×7=Rs.170
B: Gautam calculated the total amount like this: (10+7)×10=Rs.170
Which of the method is correct?
SOLUTION
Solution : A and B
Total cost can be calculated as
By first calculating the cost of individual purchase of both Vignesh and Gautam and then adding them
i.e. 10×10+10×7=Rs.170Or
First, calculate the total number of notebooks and then find the total cost
i.e. (10+7)×10=Rs.170
Hence, both the methods are correct.
Question 6
What is the value of XXX + XL?
SOLUTION
Solution : C
We know that X = 10 and L = 50.
When a Roman numeral with the larger value is on the left, we add the values together and when it is on the right, we subtract the values.
∴ XL = 40
Also, XXX = 10 + 10 + 10 = 30.
∴ XXX + XL = 40 + 30 = 70
But, 70 = 50 + 10 + 10 = L + X + X = LXX.
∴ XXX + XL = LXX
Question 7
