:
B

The area occupied by one sweet will be 1×1=1 sq units and she has to arrange 90 sweets in the box.
Minimum space needed by Ramya to arrange all the sweets is 90 sq units.
Except for 16×5 the size of all the boxes is 90 sq units.
16×5=80 sq units so she cannot arrange all the sweets in this box.


Question 17.


If you have to add 6 and 5 on the number line, you can start from the number ___ and take 6 jumps towards the ___ (right/left).


 Discuss Question

:

To add 6 and 5 on the number line, we could do it in two ways:
1. Start at the number 5 and make 6 jumps to the right, we land at 11. Hence, 5 + 6 = 11.
2. Start at the number 6 and make 5 jumps to the right, we land at 11. Hence, 6 + 5 = 11.
Because we are adding numbers, we move towards the right on the number line.
