Question 2:

If a person who runs a tea stall earns Rs 30 in a day, how much will he earn in 10 days? _____________

And in a month? _______________ How did you get the answer? Discuss.

Answer:

Earning of the man in 1 day = Rs 30 Earning of the man in 10 days = Rs 30 × 10 = Rs 300

We do it in the following manner:

1 times 30 is 30. 10 times 30 is 300.

Suppose there are 30 days in a month. Earning of the man in a month or 30 days = Rs 30 × 30 = Rs 900 We do it in the following manner: 3 times 30 is 90. 30 times 30 is 900.

Question 3:

Hariya and Babu want to buy a handcart for Rs 300.

Who has to pay back more — Hariya or Babu? _____________

Answer:

Hariya took a loan of Rs 300 from a bank for 6 months to buy a handcart. He pays Rs 51 every month to the bank. Money paid back by Hariya to the bank in 1 month = Rs 51 Money paid back by Hariya to the bank in 6 months = Rs 51 × 6 = Rs 306

We do it in the following manner: 6

×50 = 300 6

×1 = 6 So,

300+6306 So, Hariya paid Rs 306 to the bank after 6 months.

Babu took a loan of Rs 300 from Chunnilal for 6 months to buy a handcart. He paid Rs 360 to Chunnilal after 6 months. Thus, Babu has to pay back more than Hariya for buying the handcart.

Question 1:

I have 9 rickshaws of my own. I give the rickshaws on rent. each for Rs 20 a day. On Sundays I do not take any money for them. • In a week how much does Kiran earn from one rickshaw?

Answer:

We know that there are 7 days in a week. Earning of Kiran from 1 rickshaw per day = Rs 20 Earning of Kiran from 1 rickshaw for 7 days = Rs 20 × 7 = Rs 140

We do it in the following manner: 2 times 7 is 14. 20 times 7 is 140.

Now, On Sunday, Kiran does not take any money for the rickshaws. Therefore, earning of Kiran from 1 rickshaw for 6 days = Rs 140 − Rs 20 = Rs 120 We do it in the following manner:

140-20120¯So, Kiran will earn Rs 120 in a week from 1 rickshaw.

Question 2:

Look up the rate list to see today’s rates. Help Kiran to find out the cost of the junk. • How much will Kiran pay for 31 kg newspaper? 1 kg newspaper costs Rs 5. 30 kg cost Rs 5 × 30 = Rs 150.

Can you do this without writing? Guess the total money Kiran will pay to the junk collectors. Will it be — More than 600? — Less than 600?

Answer:

Cost of 1 kg newspaper = Rs 5

Cost of 31 kg newspaper = Rs 5 × 31 = Rs 155

We do it in the following manner: 5 × 30 = 150 5 × 1 = 5 So, 150+5155

Cost of 42 kg newspaper = Rs 5 × 42

= Rs 210 We do it like this: 5 × 40 = 200 5 × 2 = 10 So, 200+10210 (a) Cost of 1 kg plastic = Rs 10 Cost of 22 kg plastic = 22 × Rs 10 = Rs 220

We do it in the following manner: 22 × 1 = 22 22 × 10 = 220

(b) Cost of 1 kg waste paper = Rs 4 Cost of 23 kg wastepaper = Rs 4 × 23 = Rs 92

We do it in the following manner: 4 × 20 = 80 4 × 3 = 12 So, 80+1292(c) Cost of 1 kg iron = Rs 12 Cost of 12 kg iron = Rs 12 × 12 = Rs 144

We do it in the following manner:

Add the numbers in the box
