CHILDREN HERE ARE SOME MORE SUMS FOR PRACTICE


































































Dear Children

Hope you are enjoying your weekend. Hope also you have not forgetting your studies.

Here are a few more questions for revision. These questions are not regular HW and do not have a due date.

CW and HW will be given in the class from the math book, board or in worksheet. These sums are for revision and review to find out your problems and practice. So have fun doing them during the week


Solve the measurement work given below













Friday, 24 May 2013

THE 2 SET OF QUESTIONS I HAVE POSTED TODAY ARE FOR PRACTICE.  THE CLASSWORK SUMS HAVE A DUE DATE AS THEY  ARE MENTIONED IN THE CLASS. THE SUMS IN THE BLOG ARE FOR MORE PRACTICE. THEY DO NOT HAVE A DUE DATE, BUT, IT WOULD BE GOOD IF YOU PRACTICE THE SUMS AS THEY ARE BEING DONE IN CLASS. IF THE TOPIC HAS BEEN FINISHED IN CLASS, PRACTICE THEM IN YOUR FREE TIME SO THAT THEY CAN HELP YOU REVISE AND REVIEW YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

The second set of questions follows

1. Rewrite the number in scientific notation.
(a) 150,000,000  (b) 0.000000000009  (c) 0.000000000439  
2. Find a 4- digit number that is divisible by both 6 an 9

Solve these word problems. SHOW WORKING CLEARLY STEP BY STEP
1. There are 5 times as many buttons in Bowl A as in Bowl B. There are 240 buttons
in both bowls. How many buttons must be transferred to Bowl B form Bowl A so that
both bowls have the same number of buttons? 






 Bowl A                                               
                                                                                  

  Bowl B                
   
6 units = 240       So 1 unit = 240 ÷ 6 = 40      So  5 units = 5 X 40 = 200
There are 40 buttons in Bowl B and 200 buttons in Bowl A
Now 240 ÷ 2 = 120     So, 240 – 120 =  80   So, 80 buttons to be transferred from A to B
2. A scientist has 39 spiders, ants and houseflies in his lab for an experiment. He counted
264 legs altogether. There were thrice as many ants as houseflies. How many ants did
the scientist keep in his laboratory? (Spiders have 8 legs while ants and houseflies have 6)
Assume there are 39 ants and flies   So 39X 6=  234
39 ants and houseflies have 234legs    Now 264-234 =  30
Each ant/Housefly has 2 legs less than each spider       So 30÷2 = 15  Scts keeps  15 spiders

                               House flies                                    39-15 = 24                              



  Ants                  24                                                                                     
                                                               
4 units = 24    1 unit = 6    3 units = 18   scientist keeps 18 ants
