Solution:

Total weight of orange = 22.5 kg

Weight of orange required for 1 family = 2.5 kg

Number of families sharing orange = 22.5.kg ÷ 2.5 kg

:. 9 families can share the oranges = 22.5 / 2.5 = 22.5/2.5 × 10/10 = 225 / 25 = 9 

 

5. A baker uses 3.924 kg of sugar to bake 10 cakes of equal size. How much sugar is used in each cake?

6. Evaluate: (i) 26.13 × 4.6 (ii) 3.628 + 31.73 2.1

Solution:  

(i) 26.13 × 4.6

26.13 × 4.6 = 120.198

7. Murugan bought some bags of vegetables. Each bag weighs 20.55 kg. If the total weight of all the bags is 308.25 kg, how many bags did he buy?

Solution:

Total weight of all bags = 308.25 kg

Weight of 1 bag = 20.55 kg

Number of bags = Total weight / Weight of 1 bag

 = 308.25 / 20.55 = ( 30825 /100 ) / (2055 / 100 )

 = (30825 /1000) × 100 / 2055


 = 30825 / 2055 = 2055 / 137 = 15

  He bought 15 bags.

Challenge Problems

 

11. The distance travelled by Prabhu from home to Yoga centre is 102 m and from Yoga centre to school is 165 m. What is the total distance travelled by him in kilometres (in decimal form)?

Solution:

Distance from home to yoga centre = 102 m (+)

Distance from yoga centre to school = 165 m

                                     Total distance = 267 m

 1000 meters = 1 km

  267 metres = 267 / 1000 km = 0.267 km

Total distance travelled = 0.267 km 

 

12. Anbu and Mala travelled from A to C in two different routes. Anbu travelled from place A to place B and from there to place C. A is 8.3 km from B and B is 15.6 km from C. Mala travelled from place A to place D and from there to place C. D is 7.5 km from A and C is 16.9 km from D. Who travelled more and by how much distance?

Solution:

Distance travelled by Anbu:

From place A to place B = 8.3 km

Distance from place B to place C = 15.6 km

Total distance travelled by Anbu = 8.3 + 15.6

                                                     = 23.9 km

Distance travlled by Mala:

Distance travelled place A to D = 7.5 km

Distance from place D to place C = 16.9 km

Total distance travelled by mala = (7.5 + 16.9) km = 24.4 km

                                                                        24.4 > 23.9

Mala travelled more distance. She travelled (24.4 – 23.9) km more

 i.e she travelled 0.5 km more.

 

13. Ramesh paid ₹ 97.75 per hour for a taxi and he used 35 hours in a week. How much he has to pay totally as taxi fare for a week?

Solution:

Payment for the taxi for an hour = ₹ 97.75

Total payment for a week = ₹ 3421.25

 

14. An Aeroplane travelled 2781.20 kms in 6 hours. Find the average speed of the aeroplane in km/hr.

Solution:

In 6 hours the distance travelled = 2781.20 km

In 1 hour the distance travelled = 2781.20 / 6 km

 = (278120/ 100 ) / ( 6 / 1)

 = (278120/100) × 1/6

 = [278120 / 6] × [1 / 100] = 46353 × 1 / 100

 = 463.53 km

Average speed of the aroplane = 463.53 km/hr.

 

15. Kumar’s car gives 12.6 km mileage per litre. If his fuel tank holds 25.8 litres then how far can he travel?
