Question 31.


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 multiply by the conversion factor.


Therefore, to convert length given in metres (m) to centimetres (cm) we have to multiply by 100.


Question 32.


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


Question 33.


300 g + ______ g = 1 kg


  1.     600
  2.     700
  3.     800
  4.     1000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 700
:
B

We know that 1 kg = 1000 g


Therefore, 300 g + ______ = 1000 g


= 1000 g - 300 g


= 700 g


Question 34.


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
=9 cm1 cm=8 cm
String `B` is starting from 3 cm.
Subtract 3 cm from 10 cm.
Length of string B
=10 cm3 cm=7 cm
Thus, the difference in length of  String `A` and String `B`
=8 cm7 cm=1 cm=10 mm
The length of string A is more than string B by 10 mm.


Question 35.


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.
        1 kg=1000 g
 600 g=6001000 kg
                =0.6 kg
 Weight of mangoes =3 kg - 0.6 kg
                                        =2.4 kg


Question 36.


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
In the 4 given options, 1 m = 100 cm is correct.


Question 37.


Long distances between two places are measured in _____.


  1.     Millimetre
  2.     Milligram
  3.     Kilometre
  4.     Kilogram
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Kilometre
:
C

Kilogram (kg) and milligram (mg) are the units of mass.


Millimetre (mm) is the unit used to measure the length of very small objects like the length of a pin, seed etc. 


Kilometre (km) is the unit used to measure long distances between two places.


Question 38.


Tina went to a shop to buy 3 litres of orange juice for a party. The store sold orange juice only in 250 mL cartons. How many 250 mL cartons will Tina need to buy?


  1.     4
  2.     8
  3.     16
  4.     12
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 12
:
D

     1 L=1000 mL
3 L=3×1000 mL
            =3000 mL
Therefore, the quantity of juice Tina wants to buy equals 3000 mL.
Since the store sells only 250 mL cartons, the number of such cartons that Tina has to buy is given by 3000250=12.


Question 39.


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 40.


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

     1 L=1000 mL
6 L=6×1000 mL=6000 mL
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.
