Question 1.
40 benches are required to seat 160 Sfciidents. How many benches will be required to seat 240 students at the same rate ?  (Page No. 116)
Solution:
Number of benches required to seat 160 students= 40
On one bench, the number of students that can be seated = $$\frac{160}{40}$$ = 4 . 40
∴ For 240 students the number of benches required = $$\frac{240}{4}$$= 60

Question 2.
When a Robin bird flies, it flaps wings 23 times in 10 sec. How many times will it flap its wings in 2 minutes ? (Page No. 116)
Solution:
In 10 sec. Robin bird flaps for 23 times.
In 1 sec Robin bird flaps $$\frac{23}{10}$$ times
In 2 minutes = 2 x 60 = 120 sec Robin bird flaps for = $$\frac{23}{10}$$ x 120 = 276 times

Question 3.
The average human heart beats at 72 times per minute. How maiiy times does it beat in 15 seconds ? How many in 1 hour ? How many in a day ? (Page No. 116)
Solution:
Number of beats per 1 minute (60 seconds) = 72 times
Number of beats per 1 second = $$\frac{72}{60}=\frac{6}{5}$$ times
Number of beats per 15 seconds = $$\frac{6}{5}$$ x 15 =18 times
∴ Number of beats per 1 hour = $$\frac{6}{5}$$ x 60 x 60 = 4320 times
∴ Number of beats per 1 day = 4320 x 24 = 103680 times.

Question 1.
Population of our country as per 2011 census is about 12 x 108 (120,00,00,000). If the popu-lation of our country increases by 3% every year what will be the population by 2012 ? (Page No. 126)
Solution:
Population in 2011 = 12 x 108
It increases by 3%
Population in 2012 = (100 + 3) % of 2011
= 103% of 12 x 108
= $$\frac{103 \times 12 \times 10^{8}}{100}$$
= $$\frac{1236 \times 10^{8}}{100}$$
= 12.36 x 108 .

Question 1.
Find the interestonasum of825O for3yearsat the rate of 8%perannum. (Page No. 138)
P = ₹ 8250 R = 8% T = 3 years
Interest =P x R% x T
I = 8250 x $$\frac{8}{100}$$ x 3 .
Interest = $$\frac{198000}{100}$$ = 1980

Question 2.
₹ 3000 is lent out at 9% rate of interest. Find the Interest which will be reèieved at the end of 2½ years. (Page No. 138)
Sol. P = ₹3000 R = 9% T = 2½ years = $$\frac{5}{2}$$,
Interest = P x R% x T
3000 x $$\frac{9}{100} \times \frac{5}{2}$$ = ₹675

Question
Given below are various grids of 100 squares. Each has a different number of squares coloured.
In each case, write the coloured and white part in the form of a 1) Percentage 2) FractIon and 3) Decimal (Page No. 121)

Solution:
I) Coloured squares = 21
as a percentage 21%
as a fraction = $$\frac{21}{100}$$
asadecimal = $$\frac{21}{100}$$ =0.21

ii) Coloured squares = 50
as a percentage = 50%
asafraction = $$\frac{50}{100}=\frac{1}{2}$$
as a decimal = $$\frac{50}{100}$$ = 0.50

iii) Coloured squares = 69
as a percentage = 69%
as a fraction = $$\frac{69}{100}$$
as a decimal = $$\frac{69}{100}$$ = 0.69

iv) Coloured squares = 8
as a percentage = 8%
as a fraction = $$\frac{8}{100}=\frac{2}{25}$$
as a decimal = $$\frac{8}{100}$$ = 0.08

v) Coloured squares = 70
as a percentage = 70%
as a fraction = $$\frac{70}{100}$$
as a decimal = $$\frac{70}{100}$$ = 0.70

vi) Coloured squares = 99
as a percentage = 99%
as a fraction = $$\frac{99}{100}$$
as a decimal =$$\frac{99}{100}$$ = 0.99
