a) 297 × 17 + 297 × 3

(b) 54279 × 92 + 8 × 54279

(c) 81265 × 169 – 81265 × 69

(d) 3845 × 5 × 782 + 769 × 25 × 218

Solutions:

(a) Given 297 × 17 + 297 × 3

= 297 × (17 + 3)

= 297 × 20

= 5940

(b) Given 54279 × 92 + 8 × 54279

= 54279 × 92 + 54279 × 8

= 54279 × (92 + 8)

= 54279 × 100

= 5427900

(c) Given 81265 × 169 – 81265 × 69

= 81265 × (169 – 69)

= 81265 × 100

= 8126500

(d) Given 3845 × 5 × 782 + 769 × 25 × 218

= 3845 × 5 × 782 + 769 × 5 × 5 × 218

= 3845 × 5 × 782 + 3845 × 5 × 218

= 3845 × 5 × (782 + 218)

= 19225 × 1000

= 19225000

Q4. Find the product using suitable properties.

(a) 738 × 103

(b) 854 × 102

(c) 258 × 1008

(d) 1005 × 168

Solutions:

(a) Given 738 × 103

= 738 × (100 + 3)

= 738 × 100 + 738 × 3 (using distributive property)

= 73800 + 2214

= 76014

(b) Given 854 × 102

= 854 × (100 + 2)

= 854 × 100 + 854 × 2 (using distributive property)

= 85400 + 1708

= 87108

(c) Given 258 × 1008

= 258 × (1000 + 8)

= 258 × 1000 + 258 × 8 (using distributive property)

= 258000 + 2064

= 260064

(d) Given 1005 × 168

= (1000 + 5) × 168

= 1000 × 168 + 5 × 168 (using distributive property)

= 168000 + 840

= 168840

Q5. A taxidriver filled his car petrol tank with 40 litres of petrol on Monday. The next day, he filled the tank with 50 litres of petrol. If the petrol costs Rs 44 per litre, how much did he spend in all on petrol?

Solutions:

Petrol quantity filled on Monday = 40 litres

Petrol quantity filled on Tuesday = 50 litres

Total petrol quantity filled = (40 + 50) litre

Cost of petrol per litre = Rs 44

Total money spent = 44 × (40 + 50)

= 44 × 90

= Rs 3960

Q6. A vendor supplies 32 litres of milk to a hotel in the morning and 68 litres of milk in the evening. If the milk costs Rs 45 per litre, how much money is due to the vendor per day?

Solutions:

Milk quantity supplied in the morning = 32 litres

Milk quantity supplied in the evening = 68 litres

Cost of milk per litre = Rs 45

Total cost of milk per day = 45 × (32 + 68)

= 45 × 100

= Rs 4500

Hence, the money is due to the vendor per day is Rs 4500

Q7. Match the following:

(i) 425 × 136 = 425 × (6 + 30 + 100) (a) Commutativity under multiplication.

(ii) 2 × 49 × 50 = 2 × 50 × 49 (b) Commutativity under addition.

(iii) 80 + 2005 + 20 = 80 + 20 + 2005 (c) Distributivity of multiplication over addition.

Solutions:

(i) 425 × 136 = 425 × (6 + 30 + 100) (c) Distributivity of multiplication over addition.

Hence (c) is the correct answer

(ii) 2 × 49 × 50 = 2 × 50 × 49 (a) Commutativity under multiplication

Hence, (a) is the correct answer

(iii) 80 + 2005 + 20 = 80 + 20 + 2005 (b) Commutativity under addition

Hence, (b) is the correct answer
