Guess how many such frogs can sit on your little finger!

Ans. Five frogs can sit on my little finger.

What does 0.9 cm mean?

Ans. One-tenth of a centimetre is called one millimetre (mm). So, 0.9 cm is the same as 9 millimetres.

It is the same as ___9__ millimetres. We can also say this is nine-tenths of a cm. Right?

So, 30.5 cm is the same as ____ cm and ____ millimetres.

Ans. 30.5 cm is the same as 30 cm and 9 millimetres.

About how many of the big frogs will fit on the 1 m scale?

Ans. We know that, 1 m = 100 cm.

The length of the big frog is 30.5 cm.

So, 3 big frogs will fit on the 1 cm scale.

If they sit in a straight line how many of the small frogs will cover 1 m?

Ans. We know, 1m = 100 cm.

Then, the length of the small frog is 0.9 cm.

= 100/0.9 = 111

If small frogs sit in a straight line, 111 frogs will cover 1m.

At the Market

1. How much does a matchbox cost? ___________

Ans. The matchbox costs 50 paise.

2. How many matchboxes can be got for ₹ 2.50? ___________

Ans. Cost of one matchbox = 50 paise.

In ₹ 2.50 we can get 2.50/0.50 = 5 matchboxes.

3. How many rupees does soap cost? __________

Ans. The soap costs ₹ 8.75.

4. Aslam wanted to buy soap. He has a five-rupee coin, 2 one-rupee coins and 4 half-rupee coins. Write in rupees what money he will get back.

Ans. Total money Aslam had = ₹ 5 + ₹ (1 × 2) + ₹ (4 × 0.50)

= ₹ 5 + ₹ 2 + ₹ 2 = ₹ 9.

Cost of soap = ₹ 8.75.

Money Aslam will get back = ₹ 9 – ₹ 8.75 = ₹ 0.25 = 25 paise.

5. a) An egg costs two and a half rupees. How much will one and a half dozen cost?

Ans. Cost of 1 egg = ₹ 2.50

One and a half dozen = (12 + 6) = 18 eggs.

Cost of 18 eggs = (₹ 2.50 × 18) = (₹ 2 × 18 + ₹ 0.50 × 18)

= (₹ 36 + ₹ 9) = ₹ 45

b) How many pens can Mannan buy? How much money is left?

Ans. Cost of one egg = ₹ 2.50.

The cost of one and a half dozen eggs = ₹ 2.50 × 18 = ₹ 45.

Money left with Mannan = ₹ 60 – ₹ 45 = ₹ 15.

Cost of 1 pen = ₹ 6.50.

The cost of 2 pens = ₹ 6.50 × 2 = ₹ 13

The cost of 3 pens will be more than ₹ 15.

So, Mannan can buy 2 pens and money left with Mannan after purchasing 2 pens = ₹ 15 – ₹ 13 = ₹ 2

6. The price of two pens is Rs ____. Can she buy two pens?

Ans. The price of two pens = ₹ 6.50 × 2 = ₹ 13. Yes, she can buy two pens.

So, the salary of Majeed’s father is ₹ 10520 in Indian Rupees.

The salary of Imtiyaz’s father = 2000 Sri Lankan Rupees.

1 Sri Lankan Rupee = ₹ 0.37

2000 Sri Lankan Rupees = 2000 × ₹ 0.37 = ₹ 740

Majeed’s father gets more Indian Rupees than Imtiyaz’s father as salary.
