1 Answers () As we know that kl has 000 litres, we can say that 45kl will have = 45000l. (2) 6 l 80 ml Volume of water in the tank = 3 l = ml = 3000 ml Volume of water used on the first day of the week = 5 l 486 ml = 5000 ml ml = 5486 ml Volume of water used on the second day of the week = 8 l 73 ml = 8000 ml + 73 ml = 873 ml So, the total volume of water used = Volume of water used on the first day of the week + Volume of water used on the second day of the week = 5 l 486 ml + 8 l 73 ml = 5486 ml ml = 499 ml Volume of water left in the tank = Volume of water in the tank Volume of water used = 3000 ml 499 ml = 680 ml We know, 000 ml = l So, 680 ml = 6000 ml + 80 ml = 6 l 80 ml Step 5 Hence, 6 l 80 ml of water is left in the tank. (3) 58 We know that there are 00cm in m. Therefore, in 5m there will be 5 00 = 500cm. Hence, 5m 8cm = 500cm + 8cm = 58cm.

2 (4) 33 Since we know that kg = 000 grams, 20 grams = 20/000 = 0.20 kgs, 3 kgs 20 grams = 3.20 kgs. According to the question, the weight of each bag of bananas = 3 kgs 20 grams. or we can say that, 3.20 kgs weighs of the bananas contained by the bag = bag. or kg weighs of the bananas contained by the bags = bags Therefore, kgs weight of the bananas contained by the number of bags = = = = 33 bags Thus, the number of bags in the sack = 33 bags (5) 53 l 400 ml Lets convert the quantity of the milk in the same unit i.e. litres. We know that ml = /000 l Total milk in the container = 40 litres 407 millilitre = /000 litres = litres The milk added to the container by each worker = 4 litre 33 ml = /000 litres = 4.33 litres The milk added to the container by 3 workers = = litres Step 5 Total amount of milk in the container = = litre = 53 litre 400 ml Step 6 Therefore, the total amount of milk in the container is 53 litre 400 ml.

3 (6) 3866 g First, let us find the value of 570 g g + 40 g g. Adding the given weights by placing them in the descending order: So, 570 g g + 40 g g = 933 g Now, 2 times of 570 g g + 40 g g = 2 times of 933 g = g = 3866 g (7) 5 According to the question, an elevator in a mall can carry 7 adults or 5 children at one time. It means that weight of 7 adults is equal to the weight of 5 children. Therefore the average weight of an adult is equal to the average weight of 5 = 3 children. 7 Now, adults in the lift = 2 Number of the additional adults that lift can carry = 7-2 = 5 Therefore the number of additional children that lift can carry = 5 3 = 5 Therefore, the number of additional children that can be accommodated are 5.

4 (8) kg 27g Since we know that there are 000g in kg, we need to divide 27 by 000 to find the number of kilograms in 27 grams. On dividing 27 by 000 we have as the quotient and 27 as the remainder. This means that the above given quantity can also be written as kg 27g. (9) We know that there are 000 meters in kilometer. Therefore, in 43 kilometers we will have = meters. (0) Since we know that there are 000 grams in kg, to find the number of grams in 28kg, we need to multiply 000 with 28. On multiplying 000 with 28 we get grams.

5 () A) We have been asked to Convert millilitre to hectolitre. We know that litre = 000 millilitre or millilitre = litre = 0.00 litre 000 or millilitre = litre = litre Since, hectolitre = 00 litre or litre = hectolitre = 0.0 hectolitre 00 or litre = hectolitre = hectolitre Thus, millilitre is equal to hectolitre. B) We have been asked to Convert 2464 decilitre to litre. We know that litre = 0 decilitre or decilitre = litre = 0. litre 0 or 2464 decilitre = litre = litre Thus, 2464 decilitre is equal to litre.

6 C) We have been asked to Convert decimeter to hectometer. We know that meter = 0 decimeter or decimeter = meter = 0. meter 0 or decimeter = meter = meter Since, hectometer = 00 meter or meter = hectometer = 0.0 hectometer 00 or meter = hectometer = hectometer Thus, decimeter is equal to hectometer. D) We have been asked to Convert millimeter to hectometer. We know that meter = 000 millimeter or millimeter = meter = 0.00 meter 000 or millimeter = meter = meter Since, hectometer = 00 meter or meter = hectometer = 0.0 hectometer 00 or meter = hectometer = hectometer Thus, millimeter is equal to hectometer. (2) 3000 We know, kilometer = 000 meters Therefore, 3 kilometers = = 3000 meters

7 (3) Let us first convert each individual given unit into grams. As, kg = 000g, 7kg = = 7000g As, hg = 00g, 90hg = = 9000g As, dag = 0g, 54dag = 54 0 = 540g Step 5 Now adding all the units converted into grams, we have: 7kg 90hg 54dag 5g = 7000g g + 540g + 5g = 26555g. (4) A) 696 We know that there are 24 hours in one day. Therefore, 29 days = 29 x 24 = 696 hours B) 72 We know that there are 24 hours in one day. Therefore, 3 days = 3 x 24 = 72 hours (5) A) 20 We know, liter = 0 deciliters. Therefore, 2 liters = 0 2 = 20 deciliters.

8 B) 30 We know, liter = 0 deciliters. Therefore, 3 liters = 0 3 = 30 deciliters. C) 800 We know, meter = 00 centimeters. Therefore, 8 meters = 00 8 = 800 centimeters. D) 20 We know, liter = 0 deciliters. Therefore, 2 liters = 0 2 = 20 deciliters.
