Question 11. Which of the following would you use to measure the weight of a stone?
  1.    Measuring tape
  2.    Balance scale
  3.    Compass
  4.    Measuring Can
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Balance scale
:
B
Measuring tape is used to measure length. For example, the length of a cloth. Compass shows direction. Measuring Can is used to measure the volume of a liquid.
The balance scale is the instrumentused for weighing an object.
Question 12. 1 kilometre = ______ metres
  1.    10
  2.    100
  3.    1000
  4.    10000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 1000
:
C
The conversion factor for kilometre to metre is 1000.
When we convert a bigger unit (km) to a smaller unit (m), we multiply.
Therefore, 1 km = 1×1000 = 1000 m
Question 13. Add 20 kilometres and 300 metres.
  1.    320 km
  2.    20.3 km
  3.    23 km
  4.    2.03 km
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 20.3 km
:
B
We need to convert 300 m to km. To convert a smaller unit (m)to a bigger unit (km), we need to divide by the conversion factor.
We know that 1000 m = 1 km
300 m = 3001000= 0.300 km.
Hence, 20 km + 0.300 km = 20.300 km = 20.3 km
Question 14. 4 kg - 400 g = ____
  1.    2400 g
  2.    2600 g
  3.    3600 g
  4.    3400 g
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 3600 g
:
C
Both the quantities 4 kg and 400 g have different units.
So let's convert 4 kg to grams.
We know that 1 kg = 1000 g
(To convert a larger unit (kg) to a smaller unit (g) we multiply by the conversion factor.)
Therefore, 4 kg = 4 ×1000 g
Now, 4000 g - 400 g = 3600 g
Question 15. From the given figure, find the weight of the mangoes.
From The Given Figure, Find The Weight Of The Mangoes.
  1.    2 kg
  2.    2.4 kg
  3.    2.8 kg
  4.    3 kg
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 2.4 kg
:
B
Weight of mangoes + 100 g+ 500 g=1 kg + 2 kg
Required weight+ 600 g=3 kg
Required weight=3 kg - 600 g
To move ahead, we need to convert the units. Since we need the final answer in kilograms, let us convert 600 g to kilograms.
1kg=1000g
600 g=6001000kg
=0.6kg
Weight of mangoes=3 kg - 0.6 kg
=2.4 kg
Question 16. Select the option in which the measurement conversion is correct. 
  1.    1 m = 100 mm
  2.    1 km = 100 m
  3.    1 m = 100 cm 
  4.    1 cm = 100 mm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 1 m = 100 cm 
:
C
We know that,
1 m = 100 cm
1 km = 1000 m
1 cm = 10 mm
Inthe 4 given options,1 m = 100 cm is correct.
Question 17. To convert length given in metres (m) into centimetres (cm) we: 
  1.    divide by 100
  2.    multiply  by 100
  3.    divide by 1000
  4.    multiply by 1000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> multiply  by 100
:
B
When we convert a larger unit (m) to a smaller unit (cm), we multiplyby the conversion factor.
Therefore, to convert length given in metres (m) to centimetres (cm) we have to multiply by 100.
Question 18. Find the quantity of water needed to be mixed with 3800 mL of lime juice to make 6 litres of lemonade.
  1.    2200 mL
  2.    120 mL
  3.    2000 mL
  4.    1200 mL
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 2200 mL
:
A
1L=1000mL
6L=6×1000mL=6000mL
Thus, the total quantity of lemonade to be prepared is 6000 mL. The quantity of lime juice that we have is 3800 mL.
Quantity of water required to make the lemonade is given by
6000 mL- 3800 mL = 2200 mL.
Question 19. By how much is the length of string A more than string B?
By How Much Is The length Of String A More than String B?...
  1.    10 mm
  2.    20 mm
  3.    30 mm
  4.    40 mm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 10 mm
:
A
String `A` is starting from 1 cm.
Subtract 1 cm from 9 cm.
Lenght of string A
=9cm1cm=8cm
String `B` is starting from 3 cm.
Subtract 3 cm from 10 cm.
Length of string B
=10cm3cm=7cm
Thus, the difference in length of String `A` and String `B`
=8cm7cm=1cm=10mm
Thelength of string A is morethan string B by 10 mm.
Question 20. If
If
  1.    100 mL
  2.    200 mL
  3.    300 mL
  4.    400 mL
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 400 mL
:
D
Capacity of 5 glasses = 2 Litres
When we convert a larger unit (L) to a smaller unit (mL) we multiply.
1 Litre = 1000 mL
Hence 2 Litres = 2 × 1000 = 2000 mL
Capacity of 1 glass = Total capacity÷ No. of glasses
Capacity of 1 glass = 2000 ÷ 5
=400 mL
