Question 11. Subtract 1897 from 2003:
  1.    100
  2.    107
  3.    105
  4.    106

Question 12. How many packets of chips, each weighing 250 g can be made from a 5000 g pack?
  1.    25
  2.    10
  3.    50
  4.    20
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 20
:
D
Weight of each pack of chips = 250 g
Total weight of the big pack = 5000 g
No of packets of chips with 250 g of chips
= 5000÷250
= 5000250
= 20packs
Question 13. If 640+360 apples were kept in 50 boxes. How many apples were there in each box if all boxes had equal number of apples? 
  1.    20
  2.    10
  3.    25
  4.    50
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 20
:
A
640+360 apples make 1000 apples
640+360–––––1000–––––
1000 apples equally divided into50 boxes
= 1000÷50=100/05/0
=1005=20 apples in each box.
Alternate Method

1000÷50=20 apples in each box
Question 14. Identify the number which is divisible by 2.
  1.    2223
  2.    2002
  3.    2117
  4.    2085
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 2002
:
B
Only even numbers are divisible by 2. No odd number is divisible by 2. Hence 2002 is the number divisible by 2.
Question 15. What is the sum of the numbers between 40 and 50, that are exactly divisible by 7.
  1.    92
  2.    93
  3.    91
  4.    90
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 91
:
C
The numbers between 40 and 50 that are exactly divisible by 7 ( those numbers that can be divided by 7, without leaving a remainder) are 42 and 49.
42=7×6
49=7×7
The sum of 42 and 49 is 91
42+49–––91–––
Hence "91" is the sum.
Question 16. Increase 216 by 93 and then decrease by 9. Identify the solution. 
  1.    309
  2.    301
  3.    310
  4.    300
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 300
:
D
216 Increased by 93
=216+93–––––––––––309––––––––––
309 decreased by 9
=3099––––––––300––––––––
Hence "300" is the answer.
Question 17. A number 21978 is multiplied by a 1 digit number to get a product where the digits are exactly reversed. Identify the 1 digit number. 
  1.    2
  2.    4
  3.    6
  4.    9
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 4
:
B
21978 when reversed gives 87912. So the units digit of the product must be 2.
In the original number, the unitdigit is 8. To get 2 in the unitdigit in the product, 8 must be multiplied with either 4 or 9.
8×4=32 or 8×9=72
The tens digit in the reversed number 87912 is 1. To get that, we need to multiply by 4.
23139378×4––––––––87912–––––––––––
Hence, 21978 is multiplied by '4' to get a product where the digits are exactly reversed.
Question 18. When 2 even numbers are multiplied, the product is always 
  1.    Odd
  2.    Even
  3.    Zero
  4.    Infinity
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Even
:
B
When any 2 even numbers are multiplied
eg. 2×8=16or12×12=144, the product is always an even number.
Question 19. The product of 2 whole numbers is 48 and their sum is less than 15. What are the 2 possible numbers?
  1.    1,48
  2.    4,12
  3.    3,16
  4.    6,8
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 6,8
:
D
The product of 2 whole numbers is 48.
Given below arethe pairs of factors of 48 and their sum.
1×4848+1=492×2424+2=263×1616+3=194×1212+4=166×88+6=14
Hence "6,8" are the possible numbers.
Question 20. Estimate to the nearest thousand:
3460×7599
  1.    2,40,00,000
  2.    24,00,000
  3.    2,10,00,000
  4.    21,00,000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 2,40,00,000
:
A
3460 × 7599
3460 can be rounded off to 3000,
as 3460 < 3500
7599 is rounded off to 8000,
as 7599 > 7500
Hence the estimate is
3000 × 8000
3 × 8 = 24 followed by 6 zeroes = 2,40,00,000
