Concept: 1 Mark
Solution: 1 Mark
If we want to find the greatest 5 digit number, we will use the greatest digit, which is 9, in each place value, of all the five digits.
Hence, the price of the lehenga is 99,999, which is the largest five digit number.
Question 13. Srishti found Rs.2000 fallen on the road. Megha found Rs.3000 next day at the same place. Who is richer? [1 MARK]
 Discuss Question

:
When we are comparing two numbers, either of the two things can happen.
i. One of the numbers has a greaternumber of digits. or
ii. Both the numbers have the equal number of digits.
When one of the numbers has a greater number of digits, then the one which has a greater number of digits is greater.
If the number of digits is equal, then the following steps are followed:
i. The number with the greater valued digit on the extreme left is greater.
ii. If the digits on the extremeleft of the numbers are equal, then the digits to the right of the extreme left digits are compared and so on.
Therefore, Megha is rich right now.
Question 14. Raj had Rs.1398 in his wallet. He left Rs.526 outside the movie counter. Estimate how much money is left with him.  Also, find the actual amount left with him, and the difference between the estimated and actual amount.[4 MARKS]

:
Steps: 2 Marks
Actual Amount: 1 Mark
Estimated Amount: 1 Mark
We need to estimate 1398 - 526.
1398 > 526.
we willround off these numbers to the nearest hundreds.
1398 can be rounded off to 1400.
526 can be rounded off to 500.
Estimated difference:
1400 - 500 = 900
The actual amount left with him= 1398 - 526 = 872
The difference between the estimated amount left to him, and the actual amount left with him=900 - 872 = 28.

b. 120 kilograms = 120 × 1000= 1,20,000 grams.
Question 16. What is the difference between the greatest and the least 5 digit number that can be written from 1, 3, 5, 7, 6? Also, find the difference between the greatest and the least 4 digit number that can be formed from them. [4 MARKS]

Concept: 1Mark
Steps: 2 Marks
Answer: 1 Mark
The given digits are 1,3,5,7,6.
Now to find the greatest number, we will arrange the given digitsin descending order, i.e. the greatest number to the extreme left, then the next one and so on.
To find the smallest number, we will arrange the digits in an ascending order, i.e. the smallest number to the extreme left and so on.
Greatest number = 76531

Smallest number = 13567
Difference = 76531 - 13567 = 62964
Similarly,
The greatest 4 digit number that can be formed using the given digits = 7653
The least 4 digit number that can be used using the given digits = 1356
The difference between the greatest and the least=7653 - 1356 = 6297
Question 17. Write in an expanded form? Place commas correctly for each of the numbers.
(a) 74836

:
(a) 74,836 = 7 × 10000 + 4 × 1000 + 8 × 100 + 3 ×10+ 6 × 1
(b) 5,74,021 = 5 × 100000 + 7 × 10000 + 4 × 1000 + 2× 10 + 1×1
(c) 89,07,010 = 8 × 1000000 + 9 × 100000 + 7 × 1000 + 10 × 1
(d) 9,99,99,999 = 9×10000000 + 9×1000000 + 9×100000 + 9×10000 + 9×1000 + 9×100 + 9×10 + 9× 1
(e) 1,00,001 = 1×100000 + 0×10000 + 0×1000 + 0×100 + 0×10+1× 1
(f) 545 = 5×100 + 4×10 + 5× 1

Question 19. Shalini has 1.5L of soda in a bottle. How many glasses can be filled, each of which has a capacity of 50 ml? How many glasses of capacity 60ml each be filled? [3 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Concept: 1 Mark
Steps: 1 Mark
Answer: 1 Mark
1L=1000ml
Capacity of bottle = 1.5 ×1000= 1500ml

Capacity of glass = 50ml
Number of glasses that can be filled = 1500 ÷50 = 30 glasses
Now if the capacity of glasses = 60ml.
Then, thenumber of glasses that can be filled =1500 ÷60= 25 glasses
Question 20. The population of a town was 78787 in the year 1991 and 95833 in the year 2001. Estimate the increase in population by rounding off each population to nearest hundreds. [3 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Steps: 2 Marks
Answer: 1 Mark
The population of a town in 1991 = 78787
and the population of that town in 2001 = 95833
78787 is rounded off the nearest hundreds
= 78800
95833 is rounded off to nearest hundreds
= 95800
Estimated increase in population
= 95800 – 78800 = 17000
