Problem 11 :

559 eggs are divided equally between 43 baskets. Estimate the number of eggs in each basket.

Problem 12 :

Adrian sold 14 crates of oranges. The oranges in each crate weighted 22 kg. If Adrian received $3 per kg of oranges, how much did he receive in total ?

(1)  Solution  :

Column A :                        

=  4 × 18/5

=  20 × 18

=  360

Column B :

=  17/5 ÷ 1/6

=  17/5 × 6/1

=  102/5

= 20.5

So, Column A is greater.

(2)  Solution  :

Column A :

Given, 4x

Let us take, x = 1

=  4(1)

=  4

Column B :

Given, -4y

Let us take, y = 1

=  -4(1)

=  -4

if x < y then 4 < -4

So, none of these.

(3)  Solution  :

Column A :

Amount of 20% = $54.55

=  54.55 × 20/100

=  109.1/10

=  $10.91

Column B :

Given, $8

So, Column A is greater. 

(4)  Solution  :

Column A :

Given, 2 big bottles cost = $20

=  20×2

=  40

Column B :

Given, 4 small bottles cost = $30

=  30×4

=  120

So, Column B is greater.

(5)  Solution  :

Column A :

Given,

Let u, v, w and x are four singers.

u has 4 chances to perform.

v has 3 chances.

w has 2 chances.

x has 1 chance

Total number of chances  =  4(3)(2)(1)

=  24

Column B :

Given, 24

So, both are equal.

(6)  Solution  :

Since alternate angles are equal, they are parallel lines.

So, Both are equal.

(7)  Solution  :

Column A :

Percentage change  =  (New value - old value)/old value

=  (10-8)/8

=  2/8

=  1/4

=  (1/4) ⋅ 100%

=  25%

Column B :

20%

So, Column A  is greater. 

(8)  Solution  :

Given, Flight time from New York to Paris = 8 hours.

We Know that,

1 hr = 3600 seconds

8 hr = 28800 seconds.

Same like that,

60 seconds = 1 minute

28800 seconds = 480 minutes

Therefore, Flight time 8 hours equal to 28800 seconds, 480 minutes.

(9)  Solution  :

Column A :

The first Perfect square is 49 = 7×7 = 7²

The next greater term is 8

Square term of 8 = 8×8 = 64

Therefore, 64 is greater than 49.

Column B :

The first Perfect square is 64 = 8×8 = 8²

The next smaller term is 7

Square term of 7 = 7×7 = 49

Therefore, 49 is smaller than 64.

So, Both are equal.

(10)  Solution :

Perimeter of the shape given

=  10.1 + 6.2 + 1.5 + 10.1 + 6.2 + 1.5

=  20.2 + 3 + 12.4

=  35.6 cm

So, the perimeter of the shape give above is 35.6 cm.

(11)  Solution :

Number of eggs = 559

Number of baskets = 43

Rounding for nearest whole number, 

559 ~ 600

43 ~ 40

Number of eggs in each basket = 600/40

= 15

(12)  Solution :

Number of crates = 14

Weight of each crate = 22 kg

Amount received = $3 per kg

Total weight = 14 x 22

= 308 kg

Total amount = 308 x 3

= $924
