Chapter
1
Number Sense
Number:
Numbers are a core part of mathematics. In this workbook, the students will be introduced to
the seven-digit and eight-digit numbers and their operations.

Natural Numbers:
Natural numbers are a part of the number system which includes all the positive integers
from 1 till infinity.
For example, 74 is a natural number.

Whole Number:
It is similar to natural numbers with a zero added to the existing list.
There is no fractional or decimal part and no negatives.
For example: 0,5,14,854, etc. are whole numbers.

Integers:
An integer is a number that can be written without a fractional component. For example, 21,
4, 0, and −2048 are integers, while 9.75, 5+, and √2 are not. The set of integers consists of
zero, the positive natural numbers, also called whole numbers or counting numbers, and
their additive inverses.

Odd Number:
The numbers which are not completely divisible by 2 are called odd numbers. They always
leave a remainder.
For example: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, etc.

Even Number:
The numbers which are completely divisible by 2 are called even numbers. They never leave
a remainder. The remainder is always zero.
For example: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, etc.

Place Value:
Place Value of a digit in a number is the digit multiplied by thousand, ten or whatever place it
is situated in.
For example, The place value of 4 in 541 is 4 × 10 = 40.

Face Value:
The face value of a digit in a number is the digit itself.
For example, The face value of 4 in 541 is 4.

Unitary Method:
It is the technique using which the value of the single unit is determined from the given
information. Using this method, we can also determine the value of the multiple quantities.
For example, if 4 kg of sugar costs $40, we can calculate the cost of 1 kg of sugar by
dividing the quantities.
4 kg = $40
1 kg = $40/4 = $10
We can obtain the value of 1 kg of sugar which comes out to be $10.
We can also use this method further to calculate the value of 5 kg sugar by simply
multiplying the value.
1 kg = $10
5 kg = $10 × 5 = $50
Hence, 5 kg of sugar costs $50.

Roman Numbers:
It is a numeral system that originated in Rome. We use this method to represent the
numbers.
We will discuss some commonly used numerals.

For example, 72 is written as LXXII
Where L = 50, XX = 20 and II = 2

Successor and Predecessor


In Math, the terms successor and predecessor refer to the numbers directly after or directly
before a given number, respectively.
To find the successor of a given whole number, add one to the given number.
To find the predecessor of a given whole number, subtract one from the given number.

Indian system of numeration


• Indian numeral system, the place values of digits go in the sequence of Ones, Tens,
Hundreds, Thousands, Ten Thousand, Lakhs, Ten Lakhs, Crores and so on.
• The relationship between them is:

i. 1 hundred = 10 tens
ii. 1 thousand = 10 hundreds = 100 tens
iii. 1 lakh = 100 thousands = 1000 hundreds
iv. 1 crore = 100 lakhs = 10,000 thousands

In the number 18,20,65,479 the place values of each digit are:

• 9 – Ones
• 7 – Tens
• 4 – Hundreds
• 5 – Thousands
• 6 – Ten Thousand
• 0 – Lakhs
• 2 – Ten Lakhs
• 8 – Crores
• 1 – Ten Crores

International System of Numeration


The place values of digits go in the sequence of Ones, Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Ten
Thousand, Hundred Thousands, Millions, Ten Million and so on, in the international numeral
system.
The relations between them are:
i. 1 hundred = 10 tens
ii. 1 thousand = 10 hundreds = 100 tens
iii. 1 million = 1000 thousands
iv. 1 billion = 1000 millions

In the number 16,543,279 the place values of each digit are:

• 9 – Ones
• 7 – Tens
• 2 – Hundreds
• 3 – Thousands
Copyright © CREST Olympiads 4 www.crestolympiads.com
• 4 – Ten Thousand
• 5 – Hundred Thousands
• 6 – Millions
• 1 – Ten Million

Factors:
A factor divides a number completely without leaving any remainder.
For example:
1 is a factor of 6
2 is a factor of 6
3 is a factor of 6
6 is a factor of 6
This means 6 has 4 factors.

Multiples:
A multiple of a number is a number that is the product of a given number and some other
natural number.
For example:
6 is a multiple of 1
6 is a multiple of 2
6 is a multiple of 3
6 is a multiple of 6

Prime Factorization:
• Prime factorization is a process of factoring a number in terms of prime numbers i.e.
the factors will be prime numbers only.
• The first few prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19 and so on.
• These prime numbers when multiplied with any natural numbers produce composite
numbers.

HCF stands for Highest Common Factor. HCF is also known as GCF (Greatest Common
Factor) or GCD (Greatest Common Divisor).
Copyright © CREST Olympiads 5 www.crestolympiads.com
The greatest common factor (GCF or GCD or HCF) of a set of whole numbers is the largest
positive integer that divides evenly all the given numbers with zero remainders.
LCM stands for Lowest or Least Common Multiple. The LCM of two or more numbers is
the smallest positive integer that is divisible by all the given numbers.

Rounding up of Numbers:
Rounding is a process to estimate a particular number in a context. To round a number look
at the next digit in the right place, if the digit is less than 5, round down and if the digit is 5 or
more than 5, round up.
For example:
Round 1045 to the nearest 100.
Since 4 is less than 5, we will round down and the answer will be 1000.
Let us solve some examples to understand the topic better.
Example 1:
DXL ÷ LX = _________.
a. IX
b. XI
c. VIII
d. XIX

Solution1: a
DXL = 540
LX = 60
So, 540/60 = 9
Which can be represented as IX.
Example 2:
Rosy had 16 red fruits and 24 yellow fruits. She wants to make fruit baskets with the same
number of each colour fruit in each basket. What is the greatest number of baskets that she
can make?
a. 16
b. 24
c. 48
d. 8

Solution2: d
She needs to find a number which divides into 16 and 24. This means she should go for
HCF of 16 and 24.
HCF = 8.
So, she can make 8 fruit baskets with 2 red fruits and 3 yellow fruits in them.

Chapter Computation
2 Operations
Computation Operations
Students will now be introduced to the concept of BODMAS.
The full form of BODMAS is Brackets, Orders, Division, Multiplication, Addition and
Subtraction.

We need to first solve the brackets, then the order.


Division and multiplication belong to the same family and so does addition and subtraction.
They can be calculated in any order among themselves.
Let us take some examples to understand it better.
Example 1:
Solve the following equation:
(2+22) ((3 × -2) + 9) ÷ 2
a. -15
b. -40
c. 20
d. 9

Solution 1: d
= (2+22)*((3*-2)+9)/2

= (2+4)*((3*-2)+9)/2

= (6)*((3*-2)+9)/2

= 6*((3*-2)+9)/2

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 10 www.crestolympiads.com


= 6*((-6)+9)/2

= 6*(-6+9)/2

= 6*(3)/2

= 6*3/2

= 18/2

=9
Example 2:
Henry read 27 books. Each book had exactly 9047 words in it. He sold five of his books for
$196.95 each. How many words did Henry read?
a. 244296
b. 244269
c. 246924
d. 246294

Solution 2: b
The price is the extra information.
Number of words read by Henry = Number of books × Number of words in each book
Number of words read by Henry = 27 × 9047
Number of words read by Henry = 244269

Chapter Fractions and
3 Decimals
Fractions and Decimals
A fraction represents the part of the whole.
For example, if we consider that a student read 1 page out of 30 pages in a notebook, then
the fraction of pages which the student read = 1/30

Numerator: The number at the top of the fraction is called the numerator.
Denominator: The number at the top of the fraction is called the denominator.

Types of Fractions:
There are 4 types of fractions and they are mentioned below.
i. Unit Fractions
ii. Proper fractions
iii. Improper fractions
iv. Mixed fractions

Unit Fractions: All the fractions which have 1 in their numerators are called unit fractions.
For example, 1/5, 1/3, 1/9, etc.
Proper Fractions: When the numerator is smaller than the denominator, the fraction is
called a proper fraction. For example, 2/5
2 is the numerator and 5 is the denominator.
2<5

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 16 www.crestolympiads.com


Improper Fractions: When the numerator is bigger than the denominator, the fraction is
called an improper fraction. For example, 7/3
7 is the numerator and 3 is the denominator.
7>3
Mixed Fractions: When the fraction is the combination of a whole number and proper
1
fraction, it is called a mixed fraction. For example, 1 2

Lowest form of Fraction:


When the numerator and denominator are divisible by a common number, then the fraction
can be reduced to the lowest form.
The lowest form of a fraction is such a state in which the numerator and denominator have
no number in common.
For example, 6/8 have 2 common in them so we can reduce the fraction and write it as ¾.
Since 3 and 4 have no number in common, so it is the lowest form of 6/8

Equivalent Fractions:
The fractions which have different numerators and denominators yet have the same value
are called equivalent fractions.
For example, 4/8 and 8/16 are equivalent fractions as their lowest form is equal to 1/2.

Comparing the fractions with the same denominator:


Fractions with the same denominator are called like fractions.
The fraction with a smaller numerator is smaller as compared to the fraction with a bigger
numerator. For example,
2/5 < 4/5
As 2 < 4

Addition of Fractions:
Step 1: Make sure the bottom numbers (the denominators) are the same
Step 2: Add the top numbers (the numerators), put that answer over the denominator
Step 3: Simplify the fraction (if needed)
For example 1/6 + 4/6
The denominator (6) is the same in both the fractions, so just add the numerators.
1+4=5
So, 5/6 is the answer.
When the denominators are not equal we go for the Least common multiple of the given
denominators and try to convert the fractions into like fractions (with the same denominator).
Copyright © CREST Olympiads 17 www.crestolympiads.com
For example: 1/4 + 4/8
4 and 8 are not the same. But we can multiply 4 with 2 to get 8.
Always multiply both top and bottom by the same amount, to keep the value of the
fraction the same.
(1×2)/(4×2) = 2/8
Now, 2/8 + 4/8 = 6/8
We can reduce it to 3/4
The same rules apply to subtraction as well.

Decimals:
The word "Decimal" really means "based on 10" (From Latin decimal a tenth part)
In algebra, a decimal number can be defined as a number whose whole number part and the
fractional part is separated by a decimal point. The dot in a decimal number is called a
decimal point. The digits following the decimal point show a value smaller than one.
For example:

Like and Unlike Decimals:


Decimals having the same number of decimal places are called like decimals i.e. decimals
having the same number of digits on the right of the decimal point are known as like
decimals. Otherwise, decimals not having the same number of digits on the right of the
decimal point are unlike decimals.

Addition and Subtraction of Decimals:


Example 1:
Add 0.52 + 5.024 + 21
a. 26.545
b. 26.454
c. 26.544
d. 26.465

Solution1: c
Convert into like decimals: 5.024 + 0.520 + 21.000 = 26.544
Hence, option c is the correct answer.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 18 www.crestolympiads.com


Multiplication and Division of Decimals:
Example 2:
Multiply 15.02 × 20
a. 30.4
b. 3004
c. 300.4
d. 3.004

Solution2: c
Ignore the decimals and the last zeros:
1502 × 2 = 3004
You were having one zero at the end of 2 so attach it to the answer: 30040
There were 2 digits after the decimal point in 15.02, so put a decimal point like this:
300.40
We know that zero after decimal has no value
Hence, option c (300.4) is the correct answer.

Length

Length
Length is the measurement of distance. With the help of length, a student can determine
how long or how short a given thing is. Everything around us has a length, for example, the
car, the pencil, etc.
The various tools which we have been using to measure length are measuring tape, ruler,
hand span, stick, etc. We compare the length of the object with the measurement tool and
thus determine the length of the object in terms of the measuring tool.
The students need to know that measurements are done in some units. For instance,
Rocky’s pen is 2 centimetres longer than his friend’s pen. In this sentence, the measuring
unit is centimetres.

Metric Units of Length:


Millimetre (mm)
Centimetre (cm)
Decimetre (dm)
Metre (m)
Decametre (dcm)
Hectometre (hm)
Kilometre (km)

Conversions:

1 kilometre = 1000 metres


1 metre = 100 centimetres
Copyright © CREST Olympiads 23 www.crestolympiads.com
1 feet = 12 inches
Centimetres can be written as cm
Metre can be written as m
Kilometres can be written as km
Foot/Feet can be written as ft
Inches can be written as in.
Let us take some examples and understand them better.
Example 1:
If Rachel borrowed 7.5 metres of rope every day. Find the total length of rope in centimetres
borrowed by Rachel in 3 weeks.
a. 52.5
b. 5250
c. 157.5
d. 15750

Solution 1: d
Total length of rope = Length of rope borrowed each day × Days in a week × Number of
weeks
Total length of rope = 7.5 m × 7 × 3 = 157.5 m
We know that:
1 metre = 100 centimetres
So,
157.5 m = 157.5 × 100 = 15750 cm
Example 2:
Solve the following expression:
35.8 m + 11470 cm – 114dm = ___________ m.
a. 150.5
b. 15.05
c. 139.1
d. 13.91

Solution 2: c
Convert all the units into metres.
11470 cm = 114.7 m [1 m = 100 cm]
114 dm = 11.4 m [1 m = 10 dm]
35.8 + 114.7 – 11.4 = 139.1 m

Chapter Weight
5
Weight
Weight is the measurement of how heavy something or somebody is. Depending upon the
matter present inside their body. We classify objects into the category of heavy and light
depending upon their weight.
If a body has more weight, then the body is called heavy.
At the same time, we can call feathers and paper etc. as light objects.
We measure the weight using weighing balance and weighing scales of various designs
suited for measuring different objects.
To denote weight, we use some units like kilograms, grams, ounces, pounds, etc.

Metric Units of Weight:


Milligram (mg)
Centigram (cg)
Decigram (dg)
Gram (g)
Decagram (dcg)
Hectogram (hg)
Kilogram (kg)

Conversions:

1 kilogram (kg) = 1000 grams (g)


1 pound (lbs) = 16 ounces (oz)

Chapter
Capacity
6
Capacity
The total amount of fluid that can be contained in a container is called its capacity. We
measure the capacity of a glass in terms of how much liquid can it hold.
Carefully observe the three glasses below:

We can say the amount of water in the first glass is less than half, in the second class it is
almost half and in the last glass, it is more than half.
Capacity can also be defined as the maximum amount of liquid that can be poured into a
container without any leakage or spill off.
We can also relate it to volume.
Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.
The capacity is measured in litres, millilitres and other metric units as well.

Metric Conversions:

Non-Metric Units:
1 Gallon = 4 Quarts
1 Gallon = 8 Pints
That means: 1 Quart = 2 Pints

Chapter
Time

Time
Time is measured by a clock. The students need to know the way of reading the time
appropriately.
The clock can have three hands in it:
one denotes the time in seconds, one denotes the time in minutes and the last one is the
hour hand which is definitely present in all the clocks.

With this, we understood that time can be measured in three different units, i.e. seconds,
minutes and hours.
The relation between them is as follows:
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds
Here’s how the minute hand’s movement shows different times in an hour.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 38 www.crestolympiads.com


The first part of the day is known as AM.
It is the time of the day from midnight (12:00 AM) to midday (12:00PM).
The second part of the day is known as PM.
It is the time of the day from midday (12:00PM) to midnight (12:00 AM).
This time can be denoted in days, weeks, months and years also.
We know that:
1 day = 24 hours
1 week = 7 days
1 month can have 28, 29, 30, 31 days depending upon the month.
1 year = 12 months
This leads to knowing some terms related to days.
Today = present day
Yesterday = A day before today
Tomorrow = A day after today

Two Formats of Time:


12-hour format – In this format, the time is repeated twice as AM and PM.
24-hour format – In this format, we do not use the AM or PM as the time is not repeated.
For example 8 PM in 24-hour format can be represented as 08:00 + 12 = 20:00

Let us solve some questions to understand them better.
Example 1:
A chess game started at 10:14 a.m. and ended at 2.46 p.m. How many minutes did the
game last?
a. 4 hr 30 min
b. 32 mins
c. 132 mins
d. 272 mins

Solution 1: d
2:46 – 10:14 = 4 hr 32 min
4 hr = 4 × 60 = 240 mins
Total time = 240 + 32 = 272 mins
Example 2:
Ron will join school 27 days after 11th November 2021. If 9th November is Friday, on which
day will Ron join the school?
a. Saturday
b. Monday
c. Tuesday
d. Friday

Solution 2: a
We know that:
9th November = Friday
So, 11th November = Sunday
1 week = 7 days
2 weeks = 14 days
3 weeks = 21 days

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 40 www.crestolympiads.com


4 weeks = 28 days
After one week, we come back to the same day on the calendar.
So after 28 days, it will be a Sunday.
But after 27 days it will be Sunday – 1 = Saturday.

Chapter
Temperature

Temperature
Temperature is a physical quantity that expresses how hot or how cold a given object is. We
come across various objects which can be classified into the category of hot and cold.
Those objects whose temperature is high is termed as hot objects like, candle, tea, fire, sun,
etc.
Similarly, the objects whose temperature is low is termed as cold objects like, ice, cold
drinks, snow, ice-creams, etc.
Just like the objects, we feel hot or cold in our environment also. The weather outside is
different in different seasons.
In the summer season, we feel hot.

In the winter season, we feel cold.

The temperature is measured using an instrument named Thermometer.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 46 www.crestolympiads.com


If the temperature recorded is less, it is cooler and if the temperature recorded is more then
it is hotter.
The unit in which we measure temperature is Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F).
The SI unit of temperature is Kelvin (K).

Formulas to convert the temperature from one unit to other.

Celsius to Fahrenheit Conversion


[°F] = [°C] × 9/5 + 32 or [°F] = [°C] × 1.8 + 32

Celsius to Kelvin Conversion


[K] = [°C] + 273.15

Conversion of Fahrenheit to Celsius:


[°C] = 5/9 x (°F - 32)
Let us solve some examples to understand them better.
Example 1:
What is the boiling point of water in Fahrenheit?
a. 100°
b. 212°
c. 316°
d. 38°

Solution1: b
The boiling point of water in Celsius = 0°
Using [°F] = [°C] × 9/5 + 32
[°F] = [100°] × 9/5 + 32
= 212° F

Example 2:
Convert 815.15 K into Celsius.
a. 542°
b. 213°
c. 547°
d. 298°

Solution2: a
Using the formula: [K] = [°C] + 273.15
815.15K - 273.15 = 542°C

Chapter Geometric Shapes
10 and Solids
Geometric Shapes and Solids
In this chapter, the students get some knowledge about the different shapes around them
and their names. They will be able to distinguish between the given shapes.
The students are expected to identify the correct shape and relate it to the real-life world.
This is a commonly asked question type.
The common geometric figures we know are:

Square:
A shape that has four straight sides of the same length and four angles of 90 degrees (right
angles).

Rectangle:
A shape with four straight sides and four angles of 90 degrees (right angles). Two of the
sides are longer than the other two sides.

Triangle:
A shape that has three straight sides.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 59 www.crestolympiads.com


Circle:
A circle is the locus of all points equidistant from a central point.
Radius of a circle: The distance from the centre to the boundary of a circle is called the
radius.
Diameter of a circle: The distance from one point on a circle through the centre to another
point on the circle is called a diameter.
It is twice of radius and also the longest distance across the centre.

Some Prefixes help us to understand the shape of the figure like:


Tri – 3
Quad – 4
Pent – 5
Hex – 6
Hepta – 7
Octa – 8
And many more…

3D shapes:
They are nothing but solids that consist of 3 dimensions, namely - length, breadth, and
height. The "D" in "3D shapes" stands for "Dimensional."
A cube, cuboid, cone and cylinder are the basic 3-dimensional shapes we see around us.

Line:
In geometry, a line is defined as a straight one-dimensional figure that extends endlessly in
both directions.

Line Segment:
A straight path having two definite endpoints is called a line segment.

Ray:
A straight path extending endlessly in one direction and having one endpoint.

Straight Line:
It is a line that runs in one direction without taking any turns or curves.
It can be classified into three types:
Slanting line:
It is defined as a line that is straight but lean or slants towards another direction.

Vertical Line:
It is a straight line that runs from top to bottom and bottom to top.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 61 www.crestolympiads.com


Horizontal Line:
It is a straight line that runs from left to right and right to left.

Curved Lines:
A bent line is known as a curved line. It is not a straight line.

Angles:
When two rays are drawn in different directions from a single point, the rays are said to be at
an angle to each other. The point is called a vertex.

Types of Angles:

Classification of Triangles Based on Angles:
Triangles can be classified into three types with respect to their interior angles which are:
i. Acute-angled
ii. Obtuse-angled
iii. Right-angled

Let us discuss them.

Acute Angled Triangle:


An acute triangle is a triangle whose all three interior angles are acute.
In other words, if all interior angles are less than 90 degrees, then it is an acute-angled
triangle.
The figure given below illustrates an acute triangle.

Right Angled Triangle:


A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees.
In a right-angled triangle, the side opposite to the right angle (90-degree angle) will be the
longest side and is called the hypotenuse.
The figure given below illustrates a right triangle.

Obtuse Angled Triangle:


Obtuse triangles are those in which one of the three interior angles has a measure greater
than 90 degrees.
In other words, if one of the angles in a triangle is an obtuse angle, then the triangle is called
an obtuse-angled triangle.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 63 www.crestolympiads.com


The figure given below illustrates an obtuse triangle.

Classification of Triangles Based on Sides:


According to the lengths of their sides, triangles can be classified into three types which are:
i. Scalene
ii. Isosceles
iii. Equilateral

Let us discuss them one by one.

Scalene Triangle:
A scalene triangle has all side lengths of different measures. No side will be equal in length
to any of the other sides in such a triangle.
In a scalene triangle, all the interior angles are also different.
The figure given below illustrates a scalene triangle.
You can see how none of the sides is equal in length.

Isosceles Triangle:
In an isosceles triangle, the lengths of two of the three sides are equal.
So, the angles opposite the equal sides are equal to each other.
In other words, an isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles.
The figure given below illustrates an isosceles triangle.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 64 www.crestolympiads.com


Equilateral Triangle:
In an equilateral triangle, all the lengths of the sides are equal.
In such a case, each of the interior angles will have a measure of 60 degrees.
Since the angles of an equilateral triangle are the same, it is also known as an equiangular
triangle.
The figure given below illustrates an equilateral triangle.

Perimeter of Different Figures


Perimeter means the sum of the boundaries.
i. Triangle a + b + c where a, b and c are the side lengths
ii. Rectangle 2(Length + Width)
iii. Square 4a where a = Length of a side
iv. Circle (Circumference) 2π × radius

Area of Different Figures


Area means the space enclosed by a shape.
i. Triangle = ½ × Base × Height
ii. Rectangle = Length × Breadth
iii. Square = Side × Side
iv. Circle = π × radius × radius

Volume of Cuboid:
Length × Breadth × Height

Volume of Cube:
Side × Side × Side
Let us have some examples for a better understanding.

Example 1:
Find the missing angle (b) in the figure given below.

a. 42°
b. 62°
c. 52°
d. 58°

Solution 1: c
The complete angle in the figure is a right angle = 90°
One part of it is 38° and the other part is b°.
We know that 38° + b° = 90°
b° = 90° - 38° = 52°
Example 2:
The volume of the cuboid is 2240 cubic cm. If the length is 32 cm and the height is 7 cm, find
the width of the cuboid.
a. 10 cm
b. 12 cm
c. 14 cm
d. 11 cm

Solution 2: a
Volume of a cuboid = Length × Breadth × Height
Breadth/Width = Volume ÷ (Length × Height)
Width = 2240 ÷ (32 × 7)
Width = 10 cm

Chapter
11 Symmetry
Symmetry
Symmetry is defined as a balanced and proportionate similarity that is found in two halves of
an object, that is, one-half is the mirror image of the other half.
The imaginary line or axis along which you can fold a figure to obtain the symmetrical halves
is called the line of symmetry.

Line of Symmetry:
The imaginary line or axis along which you fold a figure to obtain the symmetrical halves is
called the line of symmetry.
The line of symmetry can be vertical, horizontal or diagonal.
There may be one or more lines of symmetry.

Rotational Symmetry:
The rotational symmetry of a shape explains that when an object is rotated on its axis, the
shape of the object looks the same.
Many geometrical shapes appear to be symmetrical when they are rotated 180 degrees or
with some angles, clockwise or anticlockwise.

Centre of Rotation:
For a figure or object that has rotational symmetry, the fixed point around which the rotation
occurs is called the centre of rotation.

Order of Rotational symmetry:


The number of positions in which a figure can be rotated and still appears exactly as it did
before the rotation, is called the order of symmetry.
Example 1:
Which symmetry is shown by the figure given below?

a. Rotational symmetry
b. Line symmetry
c. Both of them
d. None of these

Solution 1: c
This figure can be divided into two equal parts by a vertical line of symmetry.
This figure also shows rotational symmetry on rotating it every 120°.
Hence, option c will be the correct answer.

Data Handling
12
Data Handling
In data handling, the numbers are represented using pictures or bars or figures. Visual
representation makes the understanding of the students better.
There are many types of graphs and charts.
Pictograph
Bar graph
Pie chart
Line graph

Statistics
Statistics is a branch of applied mathematics that involves the collection, description,
analysis, and inference of conclusions from quantitative data.
In simple words, it is a branch of mathematics dealing with the collection, analysis,
interpretation, and presentation of masses of numerical data or a collection of quantitative
data.
Some important terms related to statistics:

Range
The difference between the highest and lowest observations gives us an idea of the spread
of observations. This can be found by subtracting the lowest observation from the highest
observations.

Mode
The mode of a data set is the number that takes place most commonly in the set. To find the
mode easily, you must arrange the numbers in order from least to greatest. Then, we must
count how many times is each number is occurring. Finally, the number that will occur
the most will be your mode.
Example of Mode
13 , 44 , 88 ,43 ,13 ,33 , 0 , 44 , 13 , 67 , 98 , 13 ,55 ,13
The mode is 13 because it is occuring most number of times.

Mean
The mean is the usual average, so I'll add and then divide:
(13 + 18 + 13 + 14 + 13 + 16 + 14 + 21 + 13) ÷ 9 = 15

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 79 www.crestolympiads.com


Note that the mean, in this case, isn't a value from the original list. This is a common result.
You should not assume that your mean will be one of your original numbers.

Pictograph
A pictograph is a representation of data using images or symbols.
This comes under the category of data handling where we represent the numerical data in
the form of diagrams.

Bar Graph
The bar graph is used to represent the data in the form of bars. The height of the bar
determines the quantity measured.

Pie Chart
A pie chart is a circular statistical graphic, which is divided into slices to illustrate numerical
proportion.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 80 www.crestolympiads.com


Line Graph
A line graph is a type of chart used to show information that changes over time. We plot line
graphs using several points connected by straight lines.

Example 1:
Study the bar graph carefully and answer the question given below.

How many people like coffee over milk?


a. 2
b. 3
c. 4
d. 1

Solution 1: c
Coffee = 5 and Milk = 1
So, difference = 5 – 1 = 4.

Copyright © CREST Olympiads 81 www.crestolympiads.com


Example 2:
Find out the mode of the following numbers.
17, 15, 12, 17, 11, 17, 11, 18, 12, 17, 16, 13, 12, 12, 17, 11
a. 17
b. 12
c. 11
d. 16

Solution 2: a
17 is repeated the maximum number of times compared to other numbers. Therefore, 17 is
the mode of the following numbers.
