State whether the following statement is true or false 
There is a whole number which when added to a whole number, gives that number

  1. True

  2. False
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Assume the whole numbers

$p,q$
According to question
$p+q=p$
$q=p-p$
$\boxed{q=0}$
Zero is the whole number which satisfies the condition mentioned in question 
So statement is true.

When the signs are changed as shown below which one of the following equation is correct?
$ -  to +  , + to \times , \times  to  \div , \div  to  =  $

  1. $ 40 +5 \div 45\times 15-25 $
  2. $ 40 \div 5 \times 15- 25 $
  3. $ 40\times 5-45\div 15+ 25 $
  4. $40 + 5-45\times 15\div 25 $

B Correct answer
Explanation

For option A
$40+5\div45\times15-25$
if we change sign according to the question then
$40\times5=45\div15+25$
$200\neq28$
For option B
$40\div5+45\times15-25$
If we change the sign according to the question then
$40=5\times45\div15+25$
$40=5\times3+25$
$40=40$
Hence, option 'B' is correct.

Difference of the greatest 7 digit number and the smallest 5 digit number is 

  1. 998999

  2. 9989999

  3. 99899

  4. 998099
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

the greatest $7$ digit number is $9999999$


the smallest $5$ digit number is $10000$

we have to find the difference between these two numbers 

$9999999-10000=9989999$

So option $B$ is the answer

The two numbers formed by subtracting one from $5$ and $10$ are:

  1. 11 and 12

  2. 4 and 10

  3. 4 and 9

  4. 5 and 6
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Let us first subtract one from $5$ as shown below:


$5-1=4$ 

Similarly, subtract one from $10$ as follows:

$10-1=9$ 

Hence, the two numbers formed by subtracting one from $5$ and $10$ are $4$ and $9$.

If a and b are two whole numbers, then commutative law is applicable to subtraction if and only if

  1. $a = b$
  2. a $\neq $ b
  3. $a > b$
  4. $a < b$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
Commutative property : The subtraction of whole numbers is not commutative, that is, if $a$ and $b$ are two whole numbers, then in general $a – b$ is not equal to $(b – a)$.

Verification:

We know that $9 – 5 = 4$ but $5 – 9=-4$ which is not a whole number. Thus, for two whole numbers $a$ and $b$ if $a > b$, then $a – b$ is a whole number but $b – a$ is not possible and if $b > a$, then $b – a$ is a whole number but $a – b$ is not possible.

Now, if $a=b=3$ then, $a-b=3-3=0$ which is also a whole number.

Hence, whole numbers are commutative under subtraction if and only if $a=b$.

Which of the following properties are not applicable to the subtraction of whole numbers?

  1. Closure property

  2. Commutative property

  3. Associative proptery

  4. All the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Let us have a look at the properties of whole numbers under subtraction:


(i) Closure property : If $a$ and $b$ are two whole numbers such that $a > b$ or $a = b$, then $a – b$ is a whole number. If $a < b$, then subtraction $a – b$ is not possible in whole numbers. For example: If $a=3$ and $b=5$ then,

$3-5=-2$ which is not a whole number.

Therefore, whole numbers are not closed under subtraction.

(ii) Commutative property : The subtraction of whole numbers is not commutative, that is, if $a$ and $b$ are two whole numbers, then in general $a – b$ is not equal to $(b – a)$.

Verification:

We know that $9 – 5 = 4$ but $5 – 9=-4$ which is not a whole number. Thus, for two whole numbers $a$ and $b$ if $a > b$, then $a – b$ is a whole number but $b – a$ is not possible and if $b > a$, then $b – a$ is a whole number but $a – b$ is not possible.

Therefore, whole numbers are not commutative under subtraction.

(iii) Associative of addition : The subtraction of whole numbers is not associative. That is, if $a, b, c$ are three whole numbers, then in general $a – (b – c)$ is not equal to $(a – b) – c$.

Verification:

We have,

$20 – (15 – 3) = 20 – 12 = 8$,

and, $(20 – 15) – 3 = 5 – 3 = 2$

So, $20 – (15 – 3) ≠ (20 – 15) – 3$.

Therefore, whole numbers are not associative under subtraction.


Hence, all of the properties are not applicable to subtraction of whole numbers.

Find the value of A and B in the following sum:
$6 A 3$
$\underline {+2 2 B}$
$\underline {B B 1}$

  1. $A=5,B=8$
  2. $A=6,B=8$
  3. $A=5,B=7$
  4. $A=5,B=9$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Since 3 + B given us 1 in the answer, so B has to be 8 as $3+8=11$.
Now 1 is carried over so, $A+1+2=B$
i.e. $A+1+2=8$. So, A is 5.
Also $6+2=B$ in hundred's place to confirm that B is 8.
The value of A is 5 and B is 8.

Two rows of numbers are given The resultant number in each row is to be worked out separately based on the following rules and the question below the rows of numbers is to be answered The operations of numbers progress from left to right
Rules
I. If an odd number is followed by a two-digit even number then they are to be added.
II. If an odd number is followed by a two-digit odd number then the second number is to be subtracted from the first number
III. If an even number is followed by a number which is a perfect square of a number then the second number is to be divided by the first number
IV. If an even number is followed by a two-digit even number then the first number is to be multiplied by the second number
