(1) b. 630
Step 1
According to the question, there are 700 teachers and students in a school.
Also, there is one teacher for every 9 students. If we consider one teacher and 9 students as one
group, there will be 10 people (teachers and students) in one group.
Step 2
Total number of teachers and students in the school
Number of groups (one teacher and 9 students) =
Number of people in one group
700
=
1+9
700
=
10
= 70
Step 3
Number of students in the school = total teachers and students - number of teachers
= 700 - 70
= 630
Step 4
Therefore, the number of students in the school are 630.
(2) a. 5
Step 1
We have been given two sentences. Let us look at both sentences one by one.
Step 2
Looking first at the first sentence, let us try to find the value of #. Let us recall the table of 3. We know
that 3 8's are 24. This means that the value of # is 8.
Step 3
Now let us look at the second sentence. We now know that # means 8. Recalling the table of 8, we
know that 8 5's are 40.
Step 4
This means, the value of $ is 5.

(3) 73.7
Step 1
We need to find the additional ladyfingers needed when new employees join the company.
Total ladyfingers consumed = 666.6 kg
Number of employees in the office = 606
666.6
The ladyfingers required for one employee =
606
= 1.1 kg
Step 2
Number of new employees joining the company = 67
Additional ladyfingers required for 67 employees = 1.1 × 67
= 73.7 kg
Step 3
Therefore, 73.7 kg of additional ladyfingers are needed.
(4) 90001
Step 1
The smallest 6 digit number = 100000
Step 2
The largest 4 digit number = 9999
Step 3
Difference between them = The smallest 6 digit number - The largest 4 digit number
= 100000 - 9999
= 90001
Step 4
Therefore, the difference between the smallest 6 digit number and the largest 4 digit number is 90001.

(5) 8
Step 1
Given, a man can walk 50 meters in a minute.
We need to calculate the time he will take to walk 400 meters.
Distance
From the formula, Speed =
Time
Step 2
Speed of the man = 50 meters per minute
Distance to be covered = 400 meters
Time required to cover 400 meters = 400 ÷ 50
= 8 minutes
Step 3
Hence, the man will take 8 minutes to walk 400 meters.
(6) 90000000
Step 1
The largest 8-digit number is 99999999.
Step 2
The smallest 8-digit number is 10000000.
Step 3
In order to find the number of 8-digit numbers, we must find the difference between the largest 8-digit
number and the smallest 8-digit number and add one to the difference.
Step 4
Therefore, the number of 8-digit numbers:
= (Largest 8-digit number - Smallest 8-digit number ) + 1
= (99999999 - 10000000) + 1
= 89999999 + 1
= 90000000
Step 5
Hence, there are 90000000 8-digit numbers in the number system.

(7) 12
Step 1
Anyone of the two rules (BODMAS and PEMDAS) can be used for simplifying the order of operations.
Brackets −( ),{ },[ ], Bar (Any expression under the bar is treated as if it’s inside the bracket)
Division or Multiplication (from left to right)
Addition or Subtraction (from left to right)
Parenthesis
Exponent
Multiplication or Division (from left to right)
Addition or Subtraction (from left to right)
Step 2
Let us first replace the values of a, b, c and d with the mathematical symbols they represent to create an
expression:
3 × 4 + 2 - 34 ÷ 17
Step 3
Let us now do multiplication. Since 3 × 4 = 12, the expression becomes:
12 + 2 - 34 ÷ 17
Step 4
Let us now do division. Since 34 ÷ 17 = 2, the expression becomes:
12 + 2 - 2
Step 5
Let us now do addition, and then subtraction. We get:
12 + 2 - 2 = 12

(8) 170388
Step 1
According to the question, number of passengers who traveled through different airports are following,
Number of passengers who traveled through Gujranwala airport = 612937
Number of passengers who traveled through Hyderabad airport = 952992
Number of passengers who traveled through Islamabad airport = 777192
Number of passengers who traveled through Lahore airport = 602544
Step 2
Total number of passenger who traveled through Gujranwala, Hyderabad, Islamabad and Lahore
airports = 612937 + 952992 + 777192 + 602544
= 2945665
Step 3
Total number of passengers who traveled through these four and Sialkot airport = 3116053
Passengers who traveled through Sialkot airport = Number of passengers who traveled through five
airports - Number of passengers who traveled through first four airports
= 3116053 - 2945665
= 170388
Step 4
Therefore, total number of passengers who traveled through Sialkot airport everyday are 170388.
(9) 35059440
Step 1
Number of guavas in a crate = 80
Step 2
Number of crates carried by a truck = 661
Step 3
Number of trucks = 663
Step 4
We have been asked to find the number of guavas that can be transported by 663 trucks.
Number of guavas transported = Number of guavas in one crate × Number of crates carried by one
truck × Number of trucks
= 80 × 661 × 663
= 35059440
Step 5
Therefore, 35059440 guavas can be transported by 663 trucks.

(10) 36720 km.
Step 1
According to the question, a train travels 51 km in one hour.
Step 2
Number of days in the month of November = 30
Step 3
Number of hours in one day = 24 hours
Step 4
Distance traveled by train in the month of November = Distance traveled by train in one-hour × Number
of days × Number of hours in one day
= 51 × 30 × 24
= 36720
Step 5
Hence, the total distance covered by the train in the month of November is 36720 km.
