Try These
1. (a) Kannu made a necklace of 17 sea shells. How many such necklaces can be
made using 100 sea shells?
Ans. There are 100 sea shells and 17 sea shells are required to make one necklace. So,
Sea shells left after making 1 necklace = 100 – 17 = 83
Sea shells left after making 2 (second) necklace=83-17 =66
Sea shells left after making 3 (third) necklace =66-17 =49
Sea shells left after making 4 (fourth) necklace= 49 – 17 = 32
Sea shells left after making 5 (fifth) necklace = 32 – 17 = 15 .
15 sea shells left after making of 5 necklaces.
So, only 5 necklaces can be made using 100 sea shells. And after making necklaces 15 sea shells will be left unused.
(b) One carton can hold 85 soap bars. Shally wants to pack 338 soap bars. How many cartons does she need for packing all of them?

(c) Manpreet wants 1500 sacks of cement for making a house. A truck carries
250 sacks at a time. How many trips will the truck make?
Ans. In one trip of truck 250 sacks of cement can be carried. The sacks left
= 1500 – 250 = 1250
In second trip of truck another 250 sacks of cement can be carried. The sacks left
= 1250 – 250 = 1000
In third trip of truck another 250 sacks of cement can be carried. The sacks left
= 1000 – 250 = 750
In fourth trip of truck another 250 sacks of cement can be carried. The sacks left
= 750 – 250 = 500
In fifth trip of truck another 250 sacks of cement can be carried. The sacks left
= 500 – 250 = 250
In sixth trip of truck another 250 sacks of cement can be carried. The sacks left
= 250 – 250 = 0
So, he needs six trips of truck to carry all 1500 sacks of cement.
(d) A driver charges Rs 500 for a trip. How much will Manpreet pay the driver
for all the trips?
Ans. Total number of truck trips = 6 For 1 trip driver charges Rs 500.
Therefore, for 6 trips driver charges = Rs 500 x 6 = Rs 3000.
Hence, Manpreet will pay Rs 3000 to the driver for all the trips.
