Solutions
(1) a. 472

Step 1
Consider the first even number that is greater than 51 and the first even number that is
smaller than 68.
So, the first even number greater than 51 = 52
The first even number smaller than 68 = 66
Sum of the pair = 52 + 66 = 118

Step 2
Now, we have to find the sum of the above pair.
So, 54 + 64 = 118

Step 3
We can continue the same steps with other pairs as well:
56 + 62 = 118
58 + 60 = 118

Step 4
As we know that there are 4 pairs having a sum of 118.
So, in order to find the sum of all the 4 pairs, we can multiply 4 by 118, i.e., 4 × 118 =
472.

Step 5
Hence, the sum of all the even numbers between 51 and 68 is 472.

Step 6
Therefore, option a is the correct answer.

(2) b. 520 cm

Step 1
The total length of the pole is the sum of the length of the part above the ground
and the part buried in the ground.

Step 2
By looking at the figure, we know the length of the pole above the ground = 4.6 m
= 460 cm.

Step 3
The length of the pole buried in the ground = 60 cm.

Step 4
Total length of the pole = 460 cm + 60 cm
= 520 cm

(3) b. 26

Step 1
According to the question, some bananas are distributed equally among the
students. So, if we divide the number of bananas by the number of students, we
will get our answer.

Step 2
On calculating the above, we get :
130 ÷ 5 = 26
Hence, each student gets 26 bananas.

(4) d. 280

Step 1
In the given image, there are three bricks in row 1, two bricks in row 2, and one
brick in row 3.

Step 2
On observing the question carefully, we find that the value of brick 1 in row 2 is
the sum of the values of the first and second brick in row 1, i.e., 50 + 70 = 120.

Step 3
Similarly, the value of brick 2 in row 2 is the sum of the values of the second and
third brick in row 1, i.e, 70 + 90 = 160.

Step 4
So, the value of ‘A’ will be the sum of the two bricks in row 2, i.e., 120 + 160 =
280.

Step 5
Therefore, the value of ‘A’ is 280.

Step 6
Hence, option d is the correct answer.

(5) 8

On observing the cube, we notice that the cube has 8 vertices, namely, A, B, C, D,
E, F, G, and H.

(6) 95

Step 1
According to the question, the height of the school building is 78 feet while the
height of the flag is 17 feet.

Step 2
We know that by placing the flag on the roof, the total height of the building
increases.
So, in order to find the height of the flag from the ground, we have to add the
height of the building and the flag.

Step 3
Therefore, the height of the flag from the ground = Height of the building +
Height of the flag
= 78 feet + 17 feet
= 95 feet

Step 4
Hence, the height of the flag from the ground is 95 feet.

(7) 42

Step 1
We know that all the even numbers between 4 and 90 are divisible by 2.

Step 2
To find out all those even numbers, we have to follow the given steps:
If both the numbers are odd, divide the difference by 2.
If both the numbers are even, subtract 2 from the difference and divide it by 2.
If one number is odd and other is even, subtract 1 from the difference and divide
it by 2.

Step 3
Since both the numbers are even (4 and 90), we will subtract 2 from the
difference and divide it by 2.
(90 - 4) - 2 84
So, the even numbers lying between 4 and 90 = = = 42
2 2

Step 4
Therefore,there are 42 even numbers between 4 and 90 that are divisible by 2.

(8) 5

Step 1
In order to count the number of triangles in the given figure, we have to label it
first.

Step 2

Now, we can begin counting the triangles.

So, the triangles in the given figure are:
△DCB, △DCA, △BCA, △EDC, and △EDA.

Step 3
Hence, the given figure has 5 triangles.

(9) six thousand forty-seven

Step 1
According to the question, 6 is in the thousands place.
The place value of 4 is 40 which means 4 is in the tens place.

Step 2
It is given that the digit 7 is in the ones place and there is no numeric value at the
hundreds place.
So, let us consider it as 0.

Step 3
Now, we have to arrange the given digits in the place value chart:
Th H T O
6 0 4 7

Th H T O
6 0 4 7

Step 4
We can read it as ‘six thousand forty-seven’.

(10) (a) Sunday

(b) Monday
(c) 10

Step 1
We notice that the sale of teddy bears varies every day.
Here, the symbol = 5 teddy bears

Step 2

Counting the number of sold, we get:

Monday 2

Tuesday 5

Wednesday 7

Thursday 4

Friday 8

Saturday 6

Sunday 9

Comparing: 2 <4 <5 <6 <7 <8 <9

We conclude that
(a) The maximum number of teddy bears are sold on Sunday.
(b) The minimum number of teddy bears are sold on Monday.
(c) Number of teddy bears sold on Monday = 2 × 5 = 10 teddy bears
