Question 1

In the expression 45÷9+8×545, what operation should be performed first according to BODMAS? 

A.

45÷9

B.

8×5

C.

9+8

D.

8×545

SOLUTION

Solution : A

BODMAS = B - Brackets

                    O - Of

                    D - Division

                    M - Multiplication

                    A - Addition

                    S - Subtraction

The given expression is  45÷9+8×545

According to BODMAS, Division is done before Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.

Hence, "45÷9" is the operation that needs to be performed first. 

Question 2

Which is greater: 50 tens 5 ones or 4 hundreds, 9 tens and 9 ones?

A.

50 Tens 5 ones

B.

4 hundreds 9 Tens 9 ones

C.

Both are equal

D.

5 Tens 50 ones

SOLUTION

Solution : A

50 Tens 5 Ones = 50×10+5×1=500+5=505

4 Hundreds, 9 Tens 9 Ones = 4×100+9×10+9×1=400+90+9=499

505>499

Hence, 50 Tens 5 Ones is greater.

Question 3

   1/29/09/013/3 1 8 9 7––––––––        1 0 6––––––––

Question 4

By how much, is 15×7 greater than 15+7?

A.

80

B.

105

C.

22

D.

83

SOLUTION

15×7=105

15+7=22

  10522–––   83

105 is 83 more than 22.

 

Question 5

What is the number obtained when two lakhs two hundred is subtracted from 2,22,222 and then divided by 2?

A.

11011

B.

10011

C.

10101

D.

11100

SOLUTION

Solution : A

Two lakhs two hundred = 2,00,200

When 2,00,200 is subtracted from 2,22,222, we have:

    2,22,222 2,00,200–––––––––––           22022––––––––––

When 22022 is divided by 2, we get:

220222=11011

Question 6

55555÷51111=?

 

 

A.

10 hundreds 

B.

100 thousands

C.

1 thousand

D.

10 thousands

SOLUTION

Solution : D

55555÷5

= 555555

= 11111

Now,

= 11111    1111 ––––––   10,000 ––––––=10 thousands

 

Question 7

What number is obtained when 4040404 is doubled and then divided by 2?

A.

4004404

B.

4040404

C.

4000404

D.

4400444

SOLUTION

Solution : B

4040404 doubled means multiplied by 2. 

   4040404×           2 –––––––   8080808 –––––––––

8080808, when divided by 2, means it is halved.

8080808÷2

= 80808082 

=4040404

 

Question 8

How many packets of chips, each weighing 250 g can be made from a 5000 g pack?

A.

25

B.

10

C.

50

D.

20

SOLUTION

Solution : D

Weight of each pack of chips = 250 g

Total weight of the big pack =  5000 g

No of packets of chips with 250 g of chips

= 5000÷250

= 5000250

= 20 packs
 

Question 9

  

A and B travel from home to school and back once a day. How much more distance does B travel from Monday to Friday?

A.

20 km

B.

10 km

C.

2 km

D.

1 km

SOLUTION

Solution : B

Monday to Friday = 5 days

Distance travelled by A in 1 day

Distance travelled by B in 1 day

Total distance travelled by A in 5 days
= 2×5=10 km

Total distance travelled by B in 5 days
= 4×5=20 km

So, B travels (2010) km = 10 km more than A from Monday to Friday.

Question 10

Class 5 had 43 children & Class 6 had 29 children. For a field trip, equal number of children were put into 4 buses. How many children were put in each bus?  

A.

20

B.

72

C.

18

D.

16

SOLUTION

Solution : C

Number of children in class 5 = 43

Number of children in class 6 = 29

Total number of children = 43+29=72

Number of buses = 4

Number of children in each bus

= 72÷4
     18  472 42      32  32       0Therefore, number of children in each bus is 18.
