Write the greatest five digit number using the digits $2,3,4,0$ and 7 .
Solution:
Greatest five digit number $=74320$
Question 5 .
Can you write the least five digit number using the digits $2,3,4,0$ and 7 as 02347 . Why? What will be the
correct number?
Solution:
No, we cannot write the least five digit number using the digits $2,3,4,0$ and 7 as 02347 . If it is 02347 ,
the left most zero has no value. It becomes 4 digit number 2347 .
The correct number will be 20347 .

Question $14 .$
Evaluate the following:
(a) $44 \div 2+(7+80 \div 10)-14+23$
(b) $17 \times 6-4-2+20-(22+18)$
(c) $16 \times 144 \div 16 \div 9+16+15-20$
(d) $12 \times 36 \div 12 \div 3+5+6-2$
(e) $15-[17+30 \div 6-(6+6)+7]$
Solution:
(a) $44 \div 2+(7+80 \div 10)-14+23$ (Given)
$=44 \div 2+(7+8)-14+23$ (To complete the bracket $\div$ done first)
$=44 \div 2+15-14+23$ (Bracket completed second)
$=22+15-14+23(\div$ completed third $)$
$=37-37$ (+ completed fourth)
$=0(-$ completed last $)$
$\therefore 44 \div 2+(7+80 \div 10)-14+23=0 .$
(b) $17 \times 6-4-2+20-(22+18)$ (Given)
$=17 \times 6-4-2+20-40$ (Bracket completed first)
$=102-4-2+20-40$ ( $\times$ completed second)
$=102-4-22-40(+$ completed third)
$=98-22-40(\div$ completed one by one)
$=76-40$
$=36$
$\therefore 17 \times 6-4-2+20-(22+18)=36$
(c) $16 \times 144 \div 16 \div 9+16+15-20$ (Given)
$=16 \times 9 \div 9+16+15-20$ (\div completed first)
$=16 \times 1+16+15-20(\div$ completed second $)$
$=16+16+15-20$ ( $\times$ completed third)
$=32+15-20$ (+ completed fourth)
$=47-20$ (+ completed fifth)
$=27(-$ completed last $)$
$\therefore 16 \times 144 \div 16 \div 9+16+15-20=27$
(d) $12 \times 36 \div 12 \div 3+5+6-2$ (Given)
$=12 \times 3 \div 3+5+6-2$ (\div completed first)
$=12 \times 1+5+6-2$ (\div completed second)
$=12+5+6-2$ ( completed third )
$=17+6-2$ (+ completed forth)
$=23-2$ (+ completed fifth)
$\therefore 12 \times 36 \div 12 \div 3+5+6-2=21$
(e) $15-[17+30 \div 6-(6+6)+7]$ (Given)
$=15-[17+30 \div 6-12+7]$ (Inner bracket completed first)
$=15-[17+5-12+7](\div$ completed second)
$=15-[22-19](+$ completed third $)$
$=15-3$ (bracket completed forth)
$=12(-$ completed last $)$
$\therefore 15-[17+30 \div 6-(6+6)+7]=12$.

Population of India in $1961=439$ millions $=439,000,000$
Population of India in $2001=1028$ millions $=1,028,000,000$
Increase in population from 1961 to $2001=$ Population in $2001-$ Population in 1961
$=1028000000-439000000$
$=589000000$
$=589$ million.
Increase in population in Indian System $=58,90,00,000$
Question 17 .
A person had ₹ $10,00,000$ with him. He purchased a flat for ₹ $8,70,000$. With the remaining money, he
has to buy a T.V. for 1 lakh. How much money was left with him to buy a T. V?
Solution:
Total money the person had = ₹ $10,00,000$
Cost of flat = ₹ $8,70,000$
Remaining money = ₹ $1,30,000$
Now he has ₹ $1,30,000$. So it is enough to buy a TV for ₹ $1,00,000$.
Question 18 .
A box contains 50 packets of biscuits, each weighing $120 \mathrm{~g}$. How many such boxes can be loaded in a
van, which cannot carry more than $900 \mathrm{~kg}$ ?
Solution:
Given: Total number of packets $=50$.
Weight of each packet $=120 \mathrm{~g}$
Weight of a box $=50 \times 120 \mathrm{~g}=6000 \mathrm{~g}=6 \mathrm{~kg}[\because 1000 \mathrm{~g}=1 \mathrm{~kg}]$
Required number of boxes $=\frac{900}{6}=150$.
150 boxes are required.
Question 19 .
How much money was collected from 5342 students for a charity show, if each student contributed ₹
670 ?

$=738 \times 100+738 \times 3[$ By distributive property of multiplication over addition $]$
$=73800+2214$
$=76014$
(b) $1005 \times 168$
$=(1000+5) \times 168$
$=(168 \times(1000+5)($ By commutative property $)$
