Answer & Explanations
1. Exp: 20.05 + 35.603- 43.087 = 55.653- 43.087= 12.566
2. Exp: 23 =0.821
28
14 = 0.933
15
15 = 0.7894
19
21 = 0.875
24
So, 15 = 0.7894 is smallest.

3. Exp: 0.585858=
= 58
99
4. Exp: = 3+ 
= 3+236-1 = 3 47/198
990
5. Exp: 9*7=63
Sum of decimal places= 4
So, 0.9*0.007= 0.0063
6. Exp: Let 0.0015 = 0.003
X
X= 0.0015 = 0.5
0.003
7. Exp: Given Expression= 0.363*(0.522+0.478)= 0.363*1= 0.363
8. Exp: Given 7125 = 5700
1.25
712.5 =71.25 = 7125*1 = 5700 = 57
12.5 1.25 1.25*100 100
9. Exp: 34.31*0.473*1.567 = 25.4303 = 2.15
0.0673*23.25*7.57 11.845
10. Exp. Given Expression = a2-b2 = (a+b) (a-b) = (a+b)
a-b a-b
(5.68)2 – (4.32)2 = (5.68+ 4.32) = 10
5.68- 4.32
11. Exp: Given Expression = a3+b3 =(a+b)
a2-ab+b2
= (4.3+1)= 5.3
12. Exp: 55 = 5*2.24 = 11.2 =11.2 = 14
45-.96 4*2.24-.96 8.96-.96 8
13. Exp: 10k = 0.0551 = 5.51 = 5.51* 102 = 1 = 10-2
5.51 551 551* 102 102
14. Exp: 25.25 = 2525 = 0.012625
2000 200000
15. Exp: (2.502+0.064)2 - (2.502-0.064)2 = (a+b)2 - (a-b)2 = 4ab = 4
2.502*0.064 ab ab
16. Exp: 4.5*1.8+4.5*8.2 = 4.5 (1.8+8.2) = 4.5*10 = 45 =3
1.5*4.5+1.5*5.5 1.5 (4.5+5.5) 1.5*10 15
17. Exp: (.02)2 + (0.52)2 + (0.035)2 = a2+b2+c2
(0.002)2 + (0.052)2 + (0.0035)2 ( a /10) 2+ ( b/10) 2 + ( c/10) 2 ,
where a= .02, b= .52, c= .035
= 100(a2+b2+c2) = 100
a2+b2+c2
18. Exp: Number of men donors= 200*1/4 =50
Number of women donors=200-50=150
1 man donor donates = Rs.3000
Therefore, 50 men donor donates = 3000* 50= Rs.1,50,000
1 woman donor donates= 3000*1/2 = Rs.1500
Therefore, 150 women donor donates = 1500* 150= Rs.2,25,000
Hence total amount collected = 1,50,000+ 2,25,000
= Rs.3,75,000
19. Let the saving be Rs. x
Therefore, Expenditure = Rs. (6300-x)
then, (6300-x)* 1 = x* 1
5 2
=> 1260- x = x
5 2
=> 1260= x + x
2 5
=> 7x = 1260
10
x= 1800
20. Exp: Let the length of the hall be x m
Breadth of the hall = 1x m
2
Area of the hall = Length * Breadth
450 = x * 1x
2
x² = 900
x =30
Difference between the length and breadth of the hall = x - 1x = x/2
2
30 = 15m
