(a) (i), (iii), (iv), (ii) (b) (i), (iv), (iii), (ii) (c) (i), (iv), (ii), (iii) (d)
(ii), (iii), (i), (iv)

1. (c) The ascending order of the given numbers is

(i) 6392< (iv)6654< (ii)6782< (iii)6784

2. 1m=………..
(a)10 cm (b) 100 cm (c) 10 m (d) 1 km
2. (b) 100 cm

3. Difference between greatest 4 digit number and lowest 4 digit

number is
(a)2546 (b)8990 (c)8999 (d)9898

3. (c) Greatest 4 digit number =9999

Lowest 4 digit number =1000
Then difference =9999-1000=8999
=8999

4. Write all possible 2-digit numbers using the digits 2,3 only once.
(a) 23,32 (b) 34,32 (c) 23,43 (d) 35,25

7. What will be the total cost of 3 kg. banana , 2kg orange and ½ kg
papaya ,if banana is 30 Rs/kg, orange is 40 Rs/kg and papaya is 20
Rs/kg
(a) 190 (b) 180 (c) 200 (d) 270

7. (b) The cost of 1 kg banana is = 30 Rs

Then the cost of 3 kg banana is =3 ´ 30=90 Rs
the cost of 1 kg orange is = 40 Rs
then the cost of 2 kg orange = 2 ´ 40 = 80 Rs
now,
the cost of 1 kg papaya = 20Rs.
then the cost of 1/2kg. papaya = 1/2 ´ 20 = 10Rs.

hence the total cost of 3kg.banana,2kg.orange and 1/2kg.papaya

=90+80+10=180Rs.

8. (b)84321<85678<86721

9. Ram is 10 years old and Manu is 15 years old. Write the difference of
their ages in roman system.
(a) V (b) III (c) IV (d) VI

9. (c) Ram’s age =10 years

Manu’s age =15 years
Then difference between their ages =15-10 =5 years
in roman =V

10. The successor of 99999 is

(a)100 (b)1000 (c)10,000 (d)1,00,000

(a)13 (b)14 (c)10 (d)12

11. (d) (3+4+8-1+4-6) =3+4+8+4-1-6

=19-7
=12

2
12. XXX+XIV+VII=……………
(a)50 (b)51 (c)54 (d)45
12. (b)) XXX+XIV+VII=30+14+7
=51

13. Express seventy-four thousand five hundred seventy in figures

(a)74560 (b)74580 (c)74570 (d)74571
13. (c) seventy-four thousand five hundred sseventy =74000+570
=74570

14. Number of boys in a class are 25 and number of girls are 24. find
the total strength of the class in roman system.
(a)XLVI (b)XLX (c)XLV (d)XLIX

14. (d) number of boys in a class =25

and numbers of girls =24
then total student in classs =25+24
=49
in roman=XLIX !X=10,L=30

15. How will the following numbers be read out

20,56,852
(a)twenty lakh, fifty six thousand, eight hundred and fifty two
(b)twenty lakh,fifty eight thousand,eight hundred.
(c)twenty lakh,fifty eight thousand, eight hundred and fifty three.
(d)twenty lakh, fifty eight thousand,eight hundred and fifty one.

15. (a) 2 0 5 6 8 5 2

16. A train moves at a uniform speed 45km/h. find the distance it will cover
in 36 hours.
(a)1630 (b)1640 (c)1620 (d)1615

16. (c)in 1 hour a train cover a distance =45 km

then the train covered a distance in 36 hours =45 ´ 36=1620

3
17. 2km +1m +3cm =…………………
(a)200102cm (b)200103cm (c)200101cm (d)200104cm

17. (b)2km =2 ´ 1000m !1km=1000m

=2000 ´ 100cm !1m=100cm
2km =2,00,000cm
1m =100cm
now,adding
2km +1m+3cm =2,00,000cm +100cm +3cm
= 200103cm

18. the digits 5 and 8 are interchanged in the number 1,80,025.find the
difference between
these two numbers.
(a)29996 (b)29995 (c)29997 (d)29990

18. (c)the given number =1,80,025

by interchanging the digits ,we have
new number =1,50,028
now,difference between these two numbers =1,80,025 -1,50,028
=29997

19. Fruits price/kg

apples 30
banana 26
grapes 36
papaya 20
oranges 18
which is the fruit twice of the price of oranges?
(a)apples (b)banana (c)papaya (d)grapes
19. (d)the price of oranges =18Rs.
and the price of grapes=36Rs.
so ,the price of grapes= 2 ´ the price of oranges.

20. the predecessor of 5,11,213 is

(a)5,11,212 (b)5,11,214 (c)5,11,215 (d)511,111
20. (a)the predecessor of 5,11,213 =5,11,213 -1
=5,11,212

21. The first and the smallest natural numbers is

(a)0 (b)1 (c)2 (d)3

4
21. (b)1, since zero is not natural number.
then 1 is smallest number in given option.

22. The price of one dozen banana is 24Rs. the Rs. of one banana is
(a)3 (b)2 (c)4 (d)1

22. (b)the price 1 dozen banana =24Rs. !1 dozen =12

or
the price of 12 bananas =24Rs.
then the price of 1 banana =24/12Rs.
=2Rs.

23. Roman numeral for 1130 is

(a)MCXXX (b)MCXIX (c)MCXXI (d)MCXXV

23. (a)in roman system, M=1000,C=100,X=10

then, 1130=1000 +100+30

=MCXXX

24. The quotient of 0 ÷ 31 is

(a)1 (b)0 (c)2 (d)3

24. (b)here dividend=0,

remember, when dividend is zero,then quotient always zero.

so ,the quotient will be zero
