Answers
(1) c. 68721

Step 1
We know that the total number of sacks will be the sum of all the sacks given in the question.

Step 2
Adding the number of sacks, Sacks of corn + Sacks of barley + Sacks of maize = 21757 + 19036
+ 27928 = 68721

Step 3
Hence, the total number of sacks is 68721.

(2) b. 1145312

Step 1
Number of rooms in the hotel = 112

Step 2
Rent of each room for one night = ₹10226

Step 3
According to the question, we have been asked to find the daily income of the hotel, assuming all
rooms are occupied.
Daily income of the hotel = Number of rooms in the hotel × Rent of one room
= 112 × 10226
= ₹1145312

Step 4
Therefore, the daily income of the hotel is ₹1145312.

(3) d. 729755

Step 1
According to the question, the difference between the two numbers is 66424, where 796179 is the
larger number. Clearly, the smaller number will be the difference of the two given numbers.

Step 2
On subtracting these numbers. We get 796179 - 66424 = 729755

Step 3
Therefore, the smaller number is 729755.

(4) a. ₹1158

Step 1
Whenever someone deposits money in one's bank account, the amount of money in one's
account increases.
Whenever someone withdraws money from one's bank account, the amount of money in
one's account decreases.

Step 2
To find the amount left in Ismail's account, we should add the amount he deposited and subtract
the money he withdrew from the initial amount in his bank account.

Step 3
This means the amount left in Ismail's account = The amount Ismail had in his account + The
amount he deposited − The amount he withdrew
= ₹785 + ₹523 − ₹150
= ₹1158

(5) c. 304271

Step 1
Total population of the town = 608694

Step 2
Number of adults in the town = 304423

Step 3
Number of children in the town = Total population of the town - Number of adults in the town
= 608694 - 304423
= 304271

Step 4
Therefore, the number of children in the town is 304271.
