Problem 1

class 6 maths textbook solutions chapter 1 problem 1 exercise 1.2 Knowing our numbers

1. A book exhibition was held for four days in a school. The number of tickets sold at the counter on the first, second, third and final day was respectively 1094, 1812, 2050 and 2751. Find the total number of tickets sold on all the four days.

Solution:

The number of tickets sold on the first day = 1,094
The number of tickets sold on the second day = 1,812
The number of tickets sold on the third day. = 2,050
The number of tickets sold on the final day. = 2,751
The total number of tickets sold on all the four days = 1,094 + 1,812 + 2,050 + 2751 = 7,707
Therefore 7,707 tickets were sold on all the four days.

2. Shekhar is a famous cricket player. He has so far scored 6980 runs in test matches. He wishes to complete 10,000 runs. How many more runs does he need.

Solution:

The number of runs Shekhar scored = 6980
The number of runs he wishes to complete = 10,000
The number of runs he required. = 10,000 – 6980. = 3020
Therefore he needs 3020 more runs.

3. In an election, the successful candidate registered 5,77,500. votes and his nearest rival second 3,48,700. votes. By what margin did the successful candidate win the election?

Solution:

The number of votes secured by the successful candidate = 5,77,500
The number of votes secured by nearest rival candidate = 3,48,700
Margin between them = 5,77,500 – 3,48,700 = 2,28,800
Therefore, the successful candidate won by a margin of 2,28,800 votes.

4. Kirti bookstore sold books worth Rs. 2,85,891 in the first week of June and books worth Rs. 4,00,786 in the week of the month. How much was the sale for the two weeks together? In which week was the sale greater and by how much?

Solution:

The worth of books sold in the first week = Rs. 2,85,891
The worth of books sold in the second week = Rs. 4,00,786
The worth of total books sold in two weeks = Rs.2,85,891 + Rs. 4,00,768 =Rs.6,86,659
Therefore, sale of second week is greater than that of first week.
The worth of more books sold in the second week = Rs. 4,00,768 – Rs. 2,85,891 = Rs. 1,14,877
Therefore, the worth of Rs. 1,14,877 books were sold in the second week.

5. Find the difference between the greatest and the least number that can be written using the digits 6, 2, 7, 4, 3 each only once.

Solution:

Using the digits 6, 2, 7, 4, 3
The greatest five digit number = 76,432
The smallest five digit number = 23,467
The difference between the greatest and smallest number = 76,432 -23,467 = 52,965
Therefore, the difference is 52,965

6. A machine, on an average, manufactures 2,825 screws a day. How many screws did it produce in the month of January 2006 ?

Solution:

The number of screws manufactured in a day = 2,825
The number of days in the month of January = 31
The number of screws manufactured in 31 days = 2,825 × 31 = 87,575
Therefore, the machine produced 87,575 screws in the month of January 2oo6.

Problem 7

7. A merchant had Rs.78,592 with her. She placed an order for purchasing 40 radio sets at Rs.1,200 each. How much money will remain with her after the purchase ?

Solution:

The cost of one radio set = Rs. 1,200
The cost of 40 radio sets = Rs. 1,200 × 40 = Rs. 48,000
The merchant contained the money = Rs.78,592
She spent the money for purchasing radio sets = Rs. 48,000
She contains the money after the purchase = Rs. 78,592 – Rs. 48,000 = Rs. 30,592
Therefore, Rs. 30,592 will remain with her after the purchase.

Problem 8

Std 6 maths textbook solutions chapter 1 problem 8 exercise 1.2 Knowing our numbers

8. A student multiplied 7236 by 65 instead of multiplying by 56. By how much was his answer greater than the correct answer ?

Solution:

The multiplication done by the student = 7236 × 65 = 470,340
The multiplication required by the student = 7236 × 56 = 4,05,216
The difference between the multiplications = 4,70,340 – 4,05,516 = 65,124
Therefore, 65,124 is greater than the correct answer.

Problem 9

Std 6 maths textbook solutions chapter 1 problem 9 exercise 1.2 Knowing our numbers

9. To stitch a shirt, 2m 15 cm cloth is needed. Out of 40m cloth, how many shirts can be stitched and how much cloth will remain ?

Solution:

The cloth needed to stitch one shirt = 2 m 15 cm = 215 cm
Length of the cloth = 40 m = 4000 cm
The number of shirts can be stitched = 4000 ÷ 215
[ 4000 /215 = 18 and the remainder130 ]
Therefore, 18 shirts can be stitched and 130 cm or 1m 30 cm will remain.

Problem 10

Std 6 maths textbook solutions chapter 1 problem 10 exercise 1.2 Knowing our numbers

10. Medicine is packed in boxes, each weighing 4 kg 500 g. How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 800 kg ?

Solution:

The weight of one box = 4 kg 500g = 4500 g
Maximum weight can be loaded in a van = 800 kg = 800000 g
The number of boxes can be loaded = 800000 g ÷ 4500 g
[ 8,00,000/4,500 = 177 and the remainder 3,500 ]
Therefore, 177 boxes can be loaded in the van.

Problem 11

Std 6 maths textbook solutions chapter 1 problem 11 exercise 1.2 Knowing our numbers

11. The distance between the school and the house of a student’s house is 1 km 875 m. Every day she walks both ways. Find the total distance covered by her in six days.

Solution:

The distance between the school and the house of a student = 1 km 875 m = 1875 m
The distance between the house and school of the student = 1875 m
The total distance covered in one day = 1875 + 1875 = 3750 m
The distance covered in six days = 3750 m × 6 = 22500 m= 22 km 500 m
( 22500 ÷ 1000 = 22.5 )
Therefore, 22 km 500m distance covered by her in six days.

Problem 12

12. A vessel has 4 litres and 500 ml of curd. In how many glasses, each of 25 ml capacity, can it be filled ?

Solution:

The quantity of curd in a vessel = 4 litres 500 ml= 4500 ml
The capacity of one glass = 25 ml
The number of glasses can be filled = 4500 ÷ 25 = 180
Therefore, 180 glasses can be filled by curd.
