(1) b. 1

Step 1
Let us assume that the required number be x.

Step 2
Now,

⟹x= ×
9 4
⟹x=1

Step 3
Thus, the required number is 1.

(2) a. 2

Step 1
It is given that sum of fractions is equal to 1. Therefore, numerator and denominator of the sum should
be equal.

Step 2
On addition of fraction we get:
1 2 1+2+
+ + =
5 5 5 5

Step 3
As we know that numerator and denominator of sum are equal:
1+2+ =5

Step 4
Now, we can be seen that the above relation is satisfied only when is equal to 2.
Therefore, =2

(3) a. 79

Step 1
Rules of the exponent:
Rule 1: When we multiply two numbers with the same base, we add the exponents.
Rule 2: When we divide two numbers with the same base, we subtract the exponents.
Rule 3: When we have an exponent expression that is raised to a power, we can multiply the exponent
and the power.

Step 2

78 × 72 × 73 × 75
× 7 9 can be simplified as:
74 × 77 × 72 × 75

78 × 72 × 73 × 75
× 79
74 × 77 × 72 × 75

7(8 + 2 + 3 + 5)
= × 7 (9)
7(4 + 7 + 2 + 5)

718
= × 79
718
= 718 ÷ 718 × 79
= 7(18 - 18 + 9)
= 79

Step 3
Hence, option a is the correct answer.

(4) a. 500

Step 1
Let us assume that the number of boys in the school are x.
20 20x
20% of x = x × =
100 100

Step 2
According to the question, 20% of the boys study science and the remaining boys are 400.
Total number of boys in the school = 20% of x + Remaining boys
20x
⇒x= + 400
100
20x + 400 × 100
⇒x=
100
20x + 40000
⇒x=
100
By cross multiplying:
100x = 20x + 40000
⇒ 100x - 20x = 40000
⇒ 80x = 40000
40000
⇒x=
80
⇒ x = 500

Step 3
Hence, option a is the correct answer.

(5) 968

Step 1
The distance covered by the car when its fuel tank is completely filled = 1892 km

Step 2
The capacity of the tank is 43 liters. This means, the distance covered by the car when the fuel tank has
43 liters of fuel = 1892 km

Step 3

1892
This means, the distance traveled by the car on 1 liter of fuel = km = 44 km
43

Step 4
The distance covered by the car on 22 liters will be 22 times 44 km.

Step 5
Therefore, the distance covered by the car when there is 22 liters of fuel in the tank is 22 × 44 km = 968
km

(6) 90

Step 1
Let us assume that x and y are the width and height of the original image, respectively.
Area of the image = width × height = xy

Step 2
According to the question, the width of the image is 80% of the original image and the height of the
image is 60% of the original image.
80 8x
Therefore, width of the new image = ×x=
100 10
60 6y
Height of the new image = ×y=
100 10

Step 3
8x 6y 48xy
Area of the new image = width × height = × =
10 10 100

Step 4

Since, the area of the new image is 43.2 cm 2.


48xy
Therefore, the new area = = 43.2
100
⇒ 48xy = 43.2 × 100
⇒ 48xy = 4320
4320
⇒ xy =
48
⇒ xy = 90

Step 5

Therefore, the area of the original image = xy = 90 cm2.

(7) + =
11 11 11

+ =

Step 1
A proper fraction represents a part of a whole. In the given figures, each circle represents one whole
thing, and has been divided into 11 equal parts.

Step 2
5
The fact that only 5 parts are shaded in the first circle tells us that it represents the fraction or 5
11
parts out of a thing that has been broken into 11 parts.

Step 3
Similarly the second circle represents 5 parts of a thing that has been broken into 11 parts.

Step 4
5 parts plus 5 parts of something that has been broken into 11 parts will be same as 10 parts out of 11,
10
or .
11

Step 5
10
So our answer is and this can be represented using the third circle by shading 10 parts out of 11.

(8) 1608 passengers

Step 1
In order to calculate the number of passengers that can be carried by a bus, we must divide 670 by 10.

Step 2
670 ÷ 10 = 67. So, a bus can carry 67 passengers.

Step 3
Now, to find the number of passengers that can be carried by 24 buses, we will need to find the product
of 67 and 24.

Step 4
67 × 24 = 1608. Hence, 24 buses can carry 1608 passengers.

(9) 13.04%

Step 1
Let B's income be ₹100.

Then, A's income = ₹115.

If A's income is ₹115, then B's income = ₹100.

100
If A's income is ₹100, then B's income = ₹( × 100) = ₹86.96.
115
Step 2
Thus, if A's income is ₹100, then B's income = ₹86.96.

(100 − 86.96)
Therefore, B's income is less than that of A by × 100% = 13.04%.
100

Hence, B's income is less than that of A by 13.04%.

(10) −128∘C

Step 1
We know that when anything is heated, its temperature increases and if anything is cooled, then its the
temperature decreases. If we look at the question carefully, we notice that the temperature of the
ingredient is 40∘C.

Step 2
Since the cooling rate is 12∘C per hour, therefore the temperature in the freezer in 14 hours
= (−12) × 14 = −168∘C
Step 3
Thus, the temperature in the freezer after 14 hours = Temperature of the ingredient + Temperature in
the freezer in 14 hours
= 40 − 168
= −128∘C
