Q1. Find whether the number 3948 is divisible by 6 or not. Solution A number is divisible by 6 only if it is divisible by 2 and 3. Consider the number 3948. Since its units place digit is 8, which is even. So the number 3948 is divisible by 2. Again, sum of digits = 3 + 9 + 4 + 8 = 24. Since, 24 is divisible is 3. So the number 3948 is divisible by 3. Thus, the number is divisible by both 2 and 3. Hence, 3948 is divisible by 6. Q2. In the following addition, find A. Solution Consider: At one's place, A + 3 = _1 So think of a number which when added to 3 gives one's place as 1. Such a number is 8 as 8 + 3 = 11 Taking, A = 8, we obtain the addition as below: Q3. Using the digits 4, 0 and 5, form all possible 3 digit numbers without repeating the digits. Also, classify them in a multiple of 2 and 3. Solution Digits are: 4, 0, 5 3 digit numbers are: 405...

Q1. A linear graph is given by the relation y = 3x + 6. Find the value of y if the value of x is 5.  1) 15 2) 21 3) 3 4) 18 Solution Put x = 5 in y = 3x + 6We get y = 21.  Q2. A bank gives 10% simple interest on the deposits. Draw a graph to show the relation between the sum deposited and the simple interest earned. Solution To draw the graph we assume the deposit sum to be Rs 1000, Rs 2000, Rs 3000 and Rs 4000. Now we calculate the SI for 1 year for the sum deposit. Sum deposit SI Rs 1000 Rs 2000 Rs 3000 Rs 4000 Plotting the points (1000, 100), (2000, 200), (3000, 300) and (4000, 400), we get the graph as below: Q3. Observe the graph:   What is the difference between the lowest marks of Rishit and Samyak?  ...

Q1. Anusha has to prepare for her Maths exam. She has to study for 8 hours per day to complete the entire syllabus in 10 days. But because she had some relatives visiting, she was unable to study for two entire days. Now for how many hours should she study to finish the syllabus in the remaining 8 days? 1) None 2) 9 hours 3) 11 hours 4) 10 hours Solution 8 × 10 = 8 × x Q2. If the weight of 5 sheets of paper is 20 grams, how many sheets of the same paper would weigh 1 kg? Solution It is clear that the number of sheets and their corresponding weight vary directly. Also 1 kg = 1000 grams. Writing the information in the table, we have Number of sheets 5 x Weight (in grams) 20 1000 Now, in case of direct variation the ratio remains constant, so we have Hence, ...
