Three friends read time from a clock. Who is right?
In the first clock, the hour hand is at 3 and the minute hand is at 12. So, it is 3:00. Pinki tells the correct time for the first clock.
In the second clock, the hour hand has passed 5 and the minute hand is at 7. So, it is 5:35. Pinki tells the correct time for the second clock.
In the third clock, the hour hand has passed 7 and the minute hand is at 3. So, it is 7:15. Once again, Pinki is correct.

Here are some pages from Rani’s Diary — Mark these in the correct order on Muniya’s Time Line.
Muniya got her first tooth in September. How many months old was she then? How many months have passed from March to September? _____________
Muniya was born on 5 March 2005. She got her first tooth on 15 September 2005. We know that March is the third month of the year and September is the ninth month of the year. Thus, Muniya was 6 months old till 5 September 2005. Now, there are 10 more days for 15 September 2005. Hence, Muniya was 6 months 10 days old when she got her first tooth. Six months have passed from March to September.
How old was Muniya, when (a) she first sat up? ____________ (b) she got her first tooth? ____________
(a) Muniya was born on 5 March 2005. She first sat up on 10 November 2005. Her age by that time = 5 March 2005 to 4 November 2005 + 6 days of November = 8 months 6 days She was 8 months 6 days old when she first sat up.
(b) Muniya got her first tooth on 15 September 2005. Her age by that time = 5 March 2005 to 4 September 2005 + 11 days of September = 6 months 11 days She was 6 months 11 days old when she got her first tooth.
What did she do first — (1) walking/eating a banana? (2) crawling/standing?
Muniya started walking on 2 February 2006. She started eating a banana on 5 September 2005. Now, 5 September 2005 comes before 2 February 2006, so she started eating first.
Muniya started crawling on 20 November 2005. She started standing up on 5 January 2006. Certainly, 5 January 2006 comes after 20 November 2005, so she started crawling first.

• Now make a time-line of this dog’s life in your notebook.
Note the differences between Muniya and Rani’s puppy:
Positions | Muniya (age) | Puppy (age) |
Started walking | ||
Ate food for the first time | ||
Got the first tooth |
Muniya was born on 5 March 2005. Muniya started walking on 2 February 2006. Let’s calculate her age from 5 March 2005 to 2 February 2006. Number of days in March 2005 = 31 − 4 = 27 Number of months from April 2005 to January 2006 = 10 Number of days in February 2006 = 2 So, she was 10 months 29 days old when she started walking.
Now, let’s calculate Muniya’s age when she ate food for the first time. She ate for the first time on 5 September 2005. So, her age will be calculated from 5 March 2005 to 5 September 2006. Time from 5 March 2005 to 4 September 2005 plus 1 day = 6 months 1 day So, she was 6 months 1 day old when she started eating for the first time.
Last, we need to find her age when she got her first tooth. She got her first tooth on 15 September. Her age at that time = 5 March 2005 to 4 September 2005 + 11 days of September = 6 months 11 days Muniya was 6 months 11 days old when she got her first tooth.
Positions | Muniya (age) | Puppy (age) |
Started walking | 10 months 29 days | After 4 weeks (1 month) |
Ate food for the first time | 6 months 1 day | After 3 weeks |
Got the first tooth | 6 months 11 days | After 3 weeks |
Difference between their ages when both started walking = Muniya’s age − Puppy’s age = 10 months 29 days − 1 month = 9 months 29 days
Difference between their ages when both ate food for the first time = Muniya’s age − Puppy’s age = 6 months 1 day − 3 weeks = 5 months 4 weeks 1 day − 3 weeks = 5 months 1 week 1 day
Difference between their ages when both got their first tooth = Muniya’s age − Puppy’s age = 6 months 11 days − 3 weeks = 5 months 4 weeks 11 days − 3 weeks = 5 months 1 week 11 days

How long did it take the letter to reach from Ajmer to Nagpur? ________________
Atif wrote the letter on 1/5/06, that is, 1 May 2006. Shabana received the letter on 6/5/06, that is, 6 May 2006. Time taken by the letter to reach Nagpur = 6 − 1 = 5 days So, the letter took five days to reach Nagpur.
How many days will Atif spend at his Nani’s place? _______________
Atif will reach his Nani’s place on 5/5/06, that is, 5 May 2006, and will be back on 20/5/06, that is, 20 May 2006. So, Total number of days Atif will spend at his Nani’s place = 20 − 5 = 15
Fill in the table:
Dates | Number of days | ||
From To | |||
Shabana’s holidays | |||
Atif’s holidays |
Who has got longer holidays — Shabana or Atif?
Shabana’s holidays are from 1 June 2006 to 9 August 2006. So, Days in June = 1 June 2006 to 30 June 2006 = 30 Days in July = 1 July 2006 to 31 July 2006 = 31 Days is August = 1 Aug 2006 to 9 Aug 2006 = 9 Shabana’s holidays = 30 + 31 + 9 = 70 days Now, Atif’s holidays are from 1/5/06 to 29/6/06. So, 1/5/06 is 1 May 2006 and 29/6/06 is 29 June 2006. Now, Days in May = 1 May 2006 to 31 May 2006 = 31 Days in June = 1 June 2006 to 29 June 2006 = 29 Atif’s holidays = 31 + 29 = 60 days
Dates | Number of days | ||
From To | |||
Shabana’s holidays | 1 June 2006 | 9 August 2006 | 70 |
Atif’s holidays | 1/5/06 | 29/6/06 | 60 |
So, Shabana has got longer holidays than Atif.
