Q.3 Write each of the sets given below in set – builder form: C = {53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79}
Sol: All the given numbers are prime numbers. Now, if we talk about range then we can see that the smallest
number is 53 and the largest is 79.
So, we can write 52 < x < 80.
Hence, we can write set C = {x: x is a prime number, 52 < x < 80}.
Q.4 If U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} and A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}. Find 𝐀𝐜 & 𝐧(𝐀𝐜 ).
Sol: Ac = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}, Since there are 5 elements in the set A′

∴ n(Ac ) = 5
Q.5 Write the cardinal number of each of the following sets:
(a) X = {letters in the word MALAYALAM}
(b) Y = {5, 6, 6, 7, 11, 6, 13, 11, 8}
(c) Z = {natural numbers between 20 and 50, which are divisible by 7}
Sol: (a)
Given, X = {letters in the word MALAYALAM}
Then, X = {M, A, L, Y}
Therefore, cardinal number of set X = 4, i.e., n(X) = 4
(b)
Given, Y = {5, 6, 6, 7, 11, 6, 13, 11, 8}
Then, Y = {5, 6, 7, 11, 13, 8}
Therefore, cardinal number of set Y = 6, i.e., n(Y) = 6
(c)
Given, Z = {natural numbers between 20 and 50, which are divisible by 7}
Then, Z = {21, 28, 35, 42, 49}
Therefore, cardinal number of set Z = 5, i.e., n(Z) = 5

X∪Y = Y∪X
L.H.S = X ∪ Y
= {1, 2, 3, 4} ∪ {2, 3, 5} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
R.H.S. = Y ∪ X
= {2, 3, 5} ∪ {1, 2, 3, 4} = {2, 3, 5, 1, 4}
Therefore, X ∪ Y = Y ∪ X [verified]
(b)
(X ∪ Y) ∪ Z = X ∪ (Y ∪ Z)
L.H.S. = (X ∪ Y) ∪ Z
X ∪ Y = {1, 2, 3, 4} ∪ {2, 3,5 } = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
Now (X ∪ Y) ∪ Z
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} ∪ {4, 5, 6} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
R.H.S. = X ∪ (Y ∪ Z)
Y ∪ Z = {2, 3, 5} ∪ {4, 5, 6} = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
X ∪ (Y ∪ Z) = {1, 2, 3, 4} ∪ {2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Therefore, (X ∪ Y) ∪ Z = X ∪ (Y ∪ Z)[ verified]
Q.9 Let 𝐀 = {𝐚, 𝐛, 𝐝, 𝐞}, 𝐁 = {𝐛, 𝐜, 𝐞, 𝐟} and 𝐂 = {𝐝, 𝐞, 𝐟, 𝐠}, Verify 𝐀 ∩ (𝐁 ∪ 𝐂) = (𝐀 ∩ 𝐁) ∪ (𝐀 ∩ 𝐂).
Sol: A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)
L.H.S. = A ∩ (B ∪ C)
B ∪ C = {b, c, d, e, f, g}
A ∩ (B ∪ C) = {b, d, e} ………(i)
R.H.S. = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)
A ∩ B = {b, e}
A ∩ C = {d, e}
(A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C) = {b, d, e} ………(ii)
From (1) and (2), we conclude that;
A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C) [verified]

(d) 𝐀 ∩ (𝐁 ∩ 𝐂) (e) (𝐀 ∩ 𝐁) ∩ 𝐂
Sol: (B ∪ C) = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, (B ∩ C) = {5, 6}, (A ∩ B) = {3, 4}

(a) A ∪ (B ∪ C) = {1, 2, 3, 4} ∪ {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
(b) A ∪ (B ∩ C) = {1, 2, 3, 4} ∪ {5, 6} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
(c) A ∩ (B ∪ C) = {1, 2, 3, 4} ∩ {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} = {3, 4}
(d) A ∩ (B ∩ C) = {1, 2, 3, 4} ∩ {5, 6} = {}

Q.12 Classify the following sets as equivalent or equal sets?
(a) A = It contains a set of vowels in the English alphabet.
B = It contains a set of all letters in the word “VOWEL”
(b) E = {𝐱 ∶ 𝐱 is a letter in the word “LIFE”}
F = {F, I, L, E}
Sol: (a)
Consider set A and B
A = {a, e, i o, u}
B = {V, O, W, E, L}
n(A) = 5, n(B) = 5
Since n(A) = n(B), they are equivalent sets.
(b)
Consider set E and F
E = {L, I, F, E}
F = {F, I, L, E}
In both sets, we have the same elements. Hence, they are equal sets.
n(A) = 4, n(B) = 4
Since n(A) = n(B), they are also equivalent sets.
Q.13 Given that 𝐔 = {Whole numbers up to 36}, 𝐀 = {𝟑, 𝟔, 𝟗, … , 𝟑𝟔}, and 𝐁 = {𝟒, 𝟖, 𝟏𝟐, … , 𝟑𝟔}. Find 𝐧(𝐀 ∩ 𝐁)
Sol: U = {0,1,2, 3…...,36}
A = {Multiples of 3 from 3 to 36}
B = {Multiples of 4 from 4 to 36}
A ∩ B = {common multiples of 3 and 4} = {12,24,36}
n(A ∩ B) = 3

Sol: (a) P = {v, x, 3, 4, 6} (b) Q = {x, y, 1, 3, 8} (c) P ∩ Q = {x, 3}
(d) P U Q = {v, x, y, 1, 3, 4, 6, 8} (e) P – Q = {v, 6, 4} (f) Q – P = {y, 1, 8}
(g) U = {v, w, x, y, z, 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10} (h) Pc = {w, y, z, 1, 8, 10} (i) Qc = {v, w, z, 4, 6, 10}
GRADE 6 4
Q.15 If 𝐧(𝐀) = 𝟒, 𝐧(𝐁) = 𝟔 and 𝐧(𝐀 ∪ 𝐁) = 𝟖, then find 𝐧(𝐀 ∩ 𝐁).
Sol: Given, n(A) = 4, n(B) = 6, and n(A ∪ B) = 8.
We know that n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A ∩ B).
Hence, 8 = 4 + 6 − n(A ∩ B) ⇒ n(A ∩ B) = 10 − 8 = 2
Q.16 If 𝐧(𝐀) = 𝟖, 𝐧(𝐁) = 𝟔, and the sets 𝐀 and 𝐁 are disjoint, then find 𝐧(𝐀 ∪ 𝐁).
Sol: Given, n(A) = 8 and n(B) = 6.
A and B are disjoint ⇒ A ∩ B = ϕ ⇒ n(A ∩ B) = 0.

∴ n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A ∩ B) = 8 + 6 − 0 = 14
Q.17 If 𝐧(𝐀) = 𝟏𝟐, 𝐧(𝐁) = 𝟏𝟔 and 𝐧(𝐀 ∪ 𝐁) = 𝟏𝟖, then find 𝐧(𝐀 ∩ 𝐁)
Sol: Given, n(A) = 12, n(B) = 16 and n(A ∪ B) = 18
We know that, n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A ∩ B). So, 18 = 12 + 16 − n(A ∩ B)
⇒ n(A ∩ B) = 28 − 18 = 10.
Q.18 In a group of 100 persons, 72 people can speak language A and 43 can speak language B. How many can
speak both languages?
Sol: n(A) = 72; n(B) = 43; n(A ∪ B) = 100

Now, n(A ∩ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A ∪ B)
= 72 + 43 − 100
= 115 − 100
= 15
Therefore, number of persons who speak both languages = 15
Q.19 In a class of 35 students, 24 like to play cricket and 16 like to play football. Also, each student like to
play at least one of the two games. How many students like to play both cricket & football?
Sol: Let C represent no. of students who like to play cricket.
Let F represent no. of students who like to play football.
No. of students who like to play cricket = n(C) = 24
No. of students who like to play football = n(F) = 16
Total no. of students = n(C ∪ F) = 35
No. of students who like to play both the games = n(C ∩ F)

n(C ∪ F) = n(C) + n(F) − n(C ∩ F)
⇒ 35 = 24 + 16 − n(C ∩ F)
⇒ n(C ∩ F) = 40 − 35
⇒ n(C ∩ F) = 5
Q.20 In group of 40 students, 26 take tea, 18 take coffee and 8 take neither of the two. How many take both
tea and coffee?
Sol: Let n(S) = Number of students.
n(T) = Number of students who take tea.
n(C) = Number of students who take coffee.
n(D) = Student who take neither tea nor coffee.
GRADE 6 5
n(S) = 40; n(T) = 26; n(C) = 18; n(D) = 8

n(TUC) = n(S) − n(D)
= 40 − 8
n(T ∪ C) = 32
Student who take both coffee and tea = T∩ C
n(T ∩ C) = n(T) + n(C) − n(T ∪ C)
= 26 + 18 − 32
n(T ∪ C) = 12
Number of students who take both tea and coffee = 12.

Q.16 A truck can carry 585 boxes of biscuits weighing 14 kg each, whereas a van can carry 350 such boxes.
Find the total weight that can be carried by both the vehicles.
Sol: Weight of each biscuit box = 14 kg
So, Weight of 585 biscuit boxes carried by truck = 14 × 585 = 8190 kg
So, Weight of 350 biscuit box carried by van = 14 × 350 = 4900 kg
∴ Total weight carried by both the vehicles = 8190 kg + 4900 kg = 13090 kg.
Q.17 Amit was asked to multiply 2380 by 45. Instead, he multiplied 2380 by 54. What is the difference
between the correct answer and incorrect answer. Also find the sum of the digits of the difference
obtained.
Sol: Correct answer = 2380 × 45 = 107100
Incorrect answer = 2380 × 54 = 128520
So, Required Difference = 128520 – 107100 = 21420
So, sum of the digits of difference obtained = 2 + 1 + 4 + 2 + 0 = 9
Q.18 The distance between the school and the house of a student is 1 km 625 m. Everyday she walks both
ways. Find the total distance covered by her in a month (consider 4 Sundays as holidays in a 30 days
month).
Sol: Given, Distance between school and house = 1 km 625 m = 1625 m (1 km = 1000 m)
Distance covered by a student per day = 2 × 1625 = 3250 m
Number of days for which student will go to school in a month (considering 4 Sundays) = 30 - 4 = 26
So, Total distance covered by the student in a month = 26 × 3250
= 84500 m
= 84 km 500 m
Therefore, the total distance covered by her in a month is 84 km 500 m.

Q.19 Find the difference between the greatest and the least number that can be formed by using the digits
6, 2, 7, 4, 3 each only once.
Sol: For Greatest number:
Write the smallest digit 2 at ones place
Write the next greater digit 3 at tens place
Similiarly, write the next greater digits at hundreds, thousands and ten thousands place respectively.
So, Required greatest number = 76432.
For smallest number:
Write the greatest digit 7 at ones place
Write the next smaller digit 6 at tens place
Similiarly, write the next smaller digits at hundreds, thousands and ten thousands place respectively.
So, Required smaller number = 23467.
∴ Difference = 76432 – 23467 = 52965.
Q.20 Write the smallest and the largest six-digit number. How many numbers are between these two?
Sol: Smallest six-digit number:
The smallest digit is 0. But we cannot use 0 at the place having the highest place value in six digit numbers.
So, we will use the second smallest digit i.e., 1.
All other places are filled by 0.
Hence, the required number = 100000.
Largest six-digit number:
The largest digit is 9.
So, write 9 at all places in six digit number.
Hence, the required number = 999999.
Numbers between these two = 999999 – 100000 = 899999.

WHOLE NUMBERS
I. SOLVED EXAMPLES
Q.1 Check whether the product of a whole number (other than zero) and its successor is even or not.
Sol: Consider whole number = 1
So, the successor of 1 = 1 + 1 = 2
Product between them = 1 × 2 = 2. Hence, 2 is an even number.
Similarly, we can take any other numbers and we observe that the product is always even.
So, we can say that “If we take any whole number and multiply it with its successor, then we will get even
number as a product”.
Q.2 A vendor supplies 105 litres of milk to a hotel in the morning and 85 litres of milk in the evening. If the
milk costs ₹ 20 per litre, how much money is due to the vendor per day?
Sol: Quantity of milk supplied in the morning = 105 𝑙
Quantity of milk supplied in the evening = 85 𝑙
∴ Quantity of milk supplied in one day = 105 + 85 = 190 𝑙
Cost of one litre milk = Rs. 20
∴ Cost of 190 𝑙 milk = Rs. (20 × 190) = Rs. 3800
Q.3 Mohit got 85 marks in Mathematics, 75 marks in English and 84 marks in Science. Kapil got 82 marks in
Mathematics, 84 marks in English and 88 marks in Science. What is the sum of their total marks?
Sol: Total marks obtained by Mohit = 85 + 75 + 84 = 244
Total marks obtained by Kapil = 82 + 84 + 88 = 254
So, total marks obtained by both = 244 + 254 = 498
Q.4 Find the sum by short method: 6784 + 9999.
Sol: 6784 + 9999
= 6784 + (10000 − 1)
= (6784 + 10000) – 1 (Using associative property of addition)
= 16784 – 1
= 16783
Q.5 Find the difference between the smallest number of 7 digits and the largest number of 4 digit.
Sol: Smallest seven-digit number = 1000000
Largest four-digit number = 9999
∴ Their difference = 1000000 – 9999
= 1000000 − 10000 + 1

Q.6 When we multiply a whole number and the multiplicative identity of whole numbers, then we get
Sol: The product of the multiplicative identity of whole numbers i.e., 1 and a whole number we get the number
itself.
⇒a×1=a
Q.7 Manisha makes 8 gift packs containing chocolates for Diwali. She puts 12 vanilla chocolates, 14 milk
chocolates, and 8 nut chocolates in each pack. Calculate the total number of chocolates in 8 packs.
Sol: Total number of chocolates
= 8 (12 + 14 + 8)
= 8 × 34 = 272
Q.8 Ravi opened his account in a bank by depositing Rs 136000. Next day he withdrew Rs 73129 from it. How
much money was left in his account?
Sol: Money deposited by Ravi = Rs 1,36,000
Money withdrawn by Ravi = Rs 73,129
Money left in his account = money deposited − money withdrawn
= Rs (136000 − 73129)
= Rs 62871
∴ Rs 62,871 is left in Ravi's account.
Q.9 The product of the predecessor and the successor of an even natural number is
Sol: Consider an even natural number = 2
So, the predecessor of 2 = 2 − 1 = 1
We get the successor of 2 = 2 + 1 = 3
Product between them = 1 × 3 = 3
Again, consider an even natural number = 6
So, the predecessor of 6 = 6 − 1 = 5
We get the successor of 6 = 6 + 1 = 7
Product between them = 5 × 7 = 35
Since in both the cases we got odd number 3, 35
Hence, the product is an odd number.
Q.10 A housing society constructed 197 houses. If the cost of construction for each house is Rs 450000, what
is the total cost for all the houses?
Sol: Cost of construction of 1 house = Rs 4,50,000
Cost of construction of 197 such houses = 197 × 450000
= 450000 × (200 − 3)
= 450000 × 200 − 450000 × 3
GRADE 6 39
[Using distributive property of multiplication over subtraction]
= 90000000 – 1350000
= 88650000
∴ The total cost of construction of 197 houses is Rs 8,86,50,000.
Q.11 Mrs. Saxena withdrew Rs 100000 from her bank account. She purchased a TV set for Rs 38750, a
refrigerator for Rs 23890, and jewellery worth Rs 35560. How much money was left with her?
Sol: Money withdrawn by Mrs. Saxena = Rs 100000
Cost of the TV set = Rs 38750
Cost of the refrigerator = Rs 23890
Cost of the jewellery = Rs 35560
Total money spent = Rs (38750 + 23890 + 35560) = Rs 98200
Now, money left = money withdrawn − money spent
= Rs (100000 − 98200)
= Rs 1800
∴ Rs 1,800 is left with Mrs. Saxena.
Q.12 Find the value of the following using suitable property: 647 × 13 + 647 × 7
Sol: 647 × 13 + 647 × 7 (By using distributive property)

= 647 × 20 = 12940
Q.13 There are 222 red balls in a basket. A boy takes out 6 red balls from it and replaces them by 12 white
balls. He continues to do so, till all red balls are replaced by white balls. Calculate the number of white
balls put in the basket.
Sol: Let n be the number of steps.

222
According to the question, 222 − 6 × n = 0 ⇒ 6n = 222 ⇒ n = = 37
6
Now, the number of white balls added in one step = 12
∴ Number of white balls added in 37 steps = 12 × 37 = 444
Q.14 1 dozen bananas cost Rs 29. How many dozens can be purchased for Rs 1392?
Sol: Cost of 1 dozen bananas = Rs 29
Number of dozens purchased for Rs 1392 = 1392 ÷ 29
Hence, 48 dozens of bananas can be purchased with Rs. 1392.
GRADE 6 40
Q.15 The cost price of 23 colour television sets is Rs 570055. Determine the cost price of each TV set if each
costs the same.
Sol: Cost price of 23 colour TV sets = Rs 5,70,055
Cost price of 1 TV set = Rs 570055 ÷ 23
∴ The cost price of one TV set is Rs 24,785.
Q.16 A car moves at a uniform speed of 75 km per hour. How much distance will it cover in 98 hours?
Sol: Uniform speed of a car = 75 km/h
Distance = speed × time
= 75 × 98 = 75 × (100 − 2) (Using distributive law)
= 75 × 100 − 75 × 2
= 7500 – 150 = 7350 km
∴ The distance covered in 98 h is 7350 km.
Q.17 Represent the following sum on a number line.
20 + 23
Sol: So, after drawing a number line, we mark ‘20’ as that’s the first number we need to add (we can also mark 23
and proceed with the addition the answer would be the same). Next, we need to add ‘23’.
23 = 10 + 10 + 3
Next, we add ‘10’ twice which gives us ‘40’. Finally, by adding three more ‘1’s, 43 is obtained which is the sum
of 20 and 23.
Q.18 In each of the following, fill in the blanks, so that the statement is true:
(a) (500 + 7) (300 – 1) = 299 × ….. (b) 888 + 777 + 555 = 111 × …..
Sol: (a)
By considering LHS
(500 + 7) (300 – 1)
We get
GRADE 6 41
= 507 × 299 (By using commutativity)
= 299 × 507
(b)
By considering LHS
888 + 777 + 555
We get
= 111 (8 + 7 + 5) (By using distributivity)
= 111 × 20
Q.19 Fill in the boxes with appropriate signs ( > or < or = ) using a number line.
(a) 𝟓 ⊡ 𝟖 (b) 𝟑 ⊡ 𝟕 (c) 𝟔 ⊡ 𝟔
Sol: Let us draw a number line as follows.
(a)
On comparing 5 and 8 on the number line, we observe that 5 is to the left of 8.
Therefore, 5 (<) 8.
(b)
On comparing 3 and 7 on the number line, we observe that 3 is to the left of 7.
Therefore, 3 (<) 7.
(c)
6 is equal to 6 itself. It is neither greater nor smaller than itself.
Therefore, 6 (=) 6.
Q.20 Find 8 – 3.
Sol: Remember, when we have to subtract, we have to count back. So, we begin at the minuend 8, which is the
larger number on the number line, and count back by the smaller number 3, which is the subtrahend.
Thus, 8 – 3 = 5
5 is the answer.

I. SOLVED EXAMPLES
Q.1 Find the common factors of 48 and 100.
Sol: 48 = 1 x 48 = 2 x 24 = 3 x 16 = 4 x 12 = 6 x 8
100 = 1 x 100 = 2 x 50 = 4 x 25 = 5 x 20 = 10 x 10
So, the factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48.
And factors of 100 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50 and 100
∴ The common factors of 48 and 100 are 1, 2, and 4.
Q.2 Is there any natural number having no factor at all?
Sol: No, because we get 1 when we divide a number by the number itself.
So, every natural number is a factor of itself.
Q.3 Write the first 5 common multiples of 4 and 12.
Sol: Multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, ……….
Multiples of 12 are 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, ………
So, first five common multiples of 4 and 12 are 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60.
Q.4 Test the divisibility of 7020 by 6.
Sol: We know, A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 as well as 3.
Here, the unit digit = 0, which is even.
So, the given number is divisible by 2.
Also, the sum of the digits = 7 + 0 + 2 + 0 = 9, which is divisible by 3.
So, the given number is divisible by 3.
Hence, 7020 is divisible by 6.
Q.5 If a number is divisible by 24 then, by what other numbers will that number be divisible?
Sol: Given, number is divisible by 24, So, it will be divisible by all the factors of 24.
The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24.
Hence, the number is also divisible by 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12.
Q.6 If a number is divisible by both 7 and 16 then by which other number will that number be always
divisible?
Sol: Given, number is divisible by 7 and 16, So, 7 and 16 are factors of that number.
So, the number will be divisible by the common factors of 7 and 16.
The factors of 7 are 1 and 7.
GRADE 6 56
MATHEMATICS PLAYING WITH NUMBERS
The factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
So, the common factor of 7 and 16 is 1.
Thus, the number will be also divisible by 1.
Q.7 Without actual division, show that 11 is a factor of 1111.
Sol: We know, a number is divisible by 11 if the difference of sum of digits at odd places and sum of digits at even
places is 0 or multiple of 11.
Here, The sum of the digits at the odd places = 1 + 1 = 2
The sum of the digits at the even places = 1 + 1 = 2
The difference of the two sums = 2 – 2 = 0
Therefore, 1111 is divisible by 11.
Q.8 Find the greatest prime number less than 50.
Sol: Prime numbers less than 50 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43 and 47.
Therefore, greatest prime number less than 50 is 47.
Q.9 Find the prime factorisation of following numbers.
(a) 32 (b) 194
Sol: (a)
2 32
2 16
2 8
2 4
2 2
1
So, 32 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
(b)
2 194
97 97
1
So, 194 = 2 x 97
Q.10 The HCF of two numbers is 28 and their LCM is 336. If one number is 112, then the other number is
Sol: Given, number = 112.
Let other number be y.
HCF of two numbers = 28
LCM of two numbers = 336
Now, we know, product of two numbers = product of their HCF and LCM
⇒ 112 × y = 28 × 336
28 × 336
⇒y=
112
⇒ y = 84
GRADE 6 57
Q.11 What is the smallest number which when divided by 24, 36 and 54 gives a remainder of 5 each time?
Sol: First, we need to find prime factorisation of 24, 36, and 54.
2 24 2 36 2 54
2 12 2 18 3 27
2 6 3 9 3 9
3 3 3 3 3 3
1 1 1
Prime factorisation of 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
Now, LCM of 24, 36 and 54 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 216
So, 216 is the smallest number exactly divisible by 24, 36, and 54.
Therefore, to get the remainder as 5, required smallest number = 216 + 5 = 221
Q.12 There are 153 apples and 119 oranges. These fruits are to be arranged in heaps containing the same
number of fruits. What is the greatest number of fruits possible in each heap is?
Sol: The greatest number of fruits in each heap will be the HCF of 153 and 119.
3 153 7 119
3 51 17 17
17 17 1
1
153 = 3 × 3 × 17
119 = 7 × 17
∴ HCF (153, 119) = 17
Therefore, the greatest number of fruits possible in each heap is 17.
Q.13 What least number should be assigned to * so that number 65*347 is divisible by 11?
Sol: Given number is 65*347
Now, sum of the digits at odd places = 7 + 3 + 5 = 15
Sum of the digits at even places = 4 + * + 6 = (10 + *)
Difference between sum = 15 – (10 + *) = (5 – *)
Now, 65*347 is divisible by 11, so, (5 – *) must be zero or multiple of 11
⇒ 5 – * = 0 or 11, 22, 33, 44, …….
⇒ * = 5 (∵ * is a digit, so it must be 5)
Therefore, required least number = 5
GRADE 6 58
Q.14 Find the greatest 5 digit number which is exactly divisible by 15, 24 and 36.
Sol: We know, the smallest number which is exactly divisible by 15, 24 and 36 is their LCM.
2 15, 24, 36
2 15, 12, 18
2 15, 6, 9
3 15, 3, 9
3 5, 1, 3
5 5, 1, 1
1, 1, 1
LCM of 15, 24 and 36 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 360
So, 180 is the smallest number which is exactly divisible by 15, 24 and 36.
Now, we need to find greatest 5 digit number which is a multiple of 360.
We know greatest 5 digit number = 99999
We get 277 as quotient and 279 as remainder.
So, Greatest 5 digit number exactly divisible by 15, 24 and 36 = 99999 – 279 = 99720.
Q.15 From the following, which is prime triplets?
(a) {3, 5, 7} (b) {17, 19, 23}
Sol: {3, 5, 7}
The set of three consecutive prime numbers with a difference of 2 is called the prime triplet.
Therefore, {3, 5, 7} is a prime triplet.

Q.6 Classify the following angles as acute, obtuse, right or reflex angle:
(a) 𝟔𝟎∘ (b) 𝟐𝟑𝟓∘ (c) 𝟗𝟎∘
Sol: (a) 60∘
Since, 60∘ < 90∘
So, 60∘ is an acute angle.
(b) 235∘
Since, 180∘ < 235∘ < 360∘
So, 235∘ is a reflex angle.
(c) 90∘
We know 90∘ is a right angle.
Q.7 Find the measure of an angle that is:
(a) complementary to a 70° angle.
(b) supplementary to a 105° angle.
Sol: (a)
We know sum of complementary angles = 90°
So, measure of an angle that is complementary to 70° angle = 90° − 70° = 20°.
(b)
We know sum of supplementary angles = 180°
So, measure of an angle that is supplementary to 105° angle = 180° − 105° = 75°.
Q.8 Identify two pairs of adjacent angles, vertically opposite angles and linear pair in given figure.
Sol: Adjacent angles: ∠POY and ∠YOQ; ∠YOQ and ∠QOX.

Vertically opposite angles: ∠POY and ∠QOX; ∠POX and ∠QOY.
Q.9 Two angles of a triangle are of measure 𝟔𝟎∘ and 𝟒𝟓∘ . Find the measure of the third angle.
Sol: Let the angles be ∠A = 60°, ∠B = 45° and ∠C.
Then, by interior angle sum property of triangle

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180∘
⇒ 60∘ + 45∘ + ∠C = 180∘
⇒ 105∘ + ∠C = 180∘
GRADE 6 92
⇒ ∠C = 180 − 105∘
⇒ ∠C = 75∘
So, the measure of the third angle of the given triangle is 75∘.
Q.10 In the given figure, find the exterior of ∠PRS.
Sol: We know, exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of its interior opposite angles.
So, ∠ PRS = ∠QPR + ∠PQR
⇒ ∠ PRS = 50° + 70° = 120°.
Q.11 Find the measure of the fourth angle of the quadrilateral if the measure of three interior angles are
𝟒𝟖∘ , 𝟖𝟓∘ and 𝟏𝟒𝟎∘ .
Sol: Given, measure of three interior angles are 48∘ , 85∘ and 140∘ .
We know, sum of all interior angles of quadrilateral = 360∘
So, measure of the fourth angle = 360∘ − (48∘ + 85∘ + 140∘ )
= 360∘ − 273∘
= 87∘
Q.12 Name each of the following triangles in two different ways:
Sol: (a) It is an acute-angled and isosceles triangle as angles are acute and 2 sides are of equal length.
(b) It is right-angled and scalene triangle as one of the angles is 90° and all sides are of different length.
(c) It is obtuse angled and isosceles triangle as one of the angle is obtuse and 2 sides are of equal length.
Q.13 A figure is said to be regular if its sides are equal in length and angles are equal in measure. Can you
identify the regular quadrilateral?
Sol: Square is the required regular quadrilateral as all sides and angles are equal in square.
GRADE 6 93
Q.14 In a square PQRS, the diagonals bisect at O, then △POQ is ____

Q.1 Which number will we reach, if we move 3 units to the right of −5?
Sol: Let us consider the following number line:
We are at −5 on the number line. We will move 3 units to the right of −5. If we move one unit towards the right
of −5, then we will reach at −4. After the movement towards the next unit, we will be at −3. After further
movement, we will be at −2. Now, we have moved 3 units to the right of −5 and reached at −2.
Thus, if we move 3 units to the right of −5, then we will reach at −2.
Q.2 Which number will we reach, if we move 4 units to the left of 3?
Sol: Let us consider the following number line.
We are at 3 on the number line. We will move 4 units to the left of 3. If we move one unit towards the left of 3,
then we will reach at 2. After the movement towards the next unit, we will be at 1. In this way, if we continue
this activity 2 more times, then we will reach at −1. Now, we have moved 4 units to the left of 3 and reached
−1.
Thus, if we move 4 units to the left of 3, we will reach −1.
Q.3 Find the predecessor and successor of the following numbers using a number line.
(a) 5 (b) 0 (c) −7
Sol: Let us consider a number line as shown below.

If we observe the number line carefully, then we will find that we will be
(i) at 4, if we move 1 unit towards the left of 5 and
(ii) at 6, if we move 1 unit towards the right of 5
Thus, the predecessor and successor of 5 are 4 and 6, respectively.
(b)
GRADE 6 107
MATHEMATICS INTEGERS
(i) at −1, if we move 1 unit towards the left of 0 and
(ii) at 1, if we move 1 unit towards the right of 0

(c)
(i) at −8, if we move 1 unit towards the left of −7 and
(ii) at −6, if we move 1 unit towards the right of −7
Thus, the predecessor and successor of −7 are −8 and −6, respectively.
Q.4 Fill in the boxes with appropriate signs ( > or < or = ) using a number line.
(a) −𝟓 ⊡ 𝟖 (b) −𝟑 ⊡ −𝟕 (c) −𝟖 ⊡ −𝟒 (d) −𝟔 ⊡ −𝟔
Sol: Let us draw a number line as follows.
(a)
On comparing −5 and 8 on the number line, we observe that −5 is to the left of 8.
Therefore, −5 (<) 8.
(b)
On comparing −3 and −7 on the number line, we observe that −3 is to the right of −7.
Therefore, −3 (>) −7.
(c)
On comparing −8 and −4 on the number line, we observe that −8 is to the left of −4.
Therefore, −8 (<) −4.
(d)
−6 is equal to −6 itself. It is neither greater nor smaller than itself.
Therefore, −6 (=) −6.
Q.5 The temperature of Shimla is recorded to be maximum of 5°C and minimum of − 4°C. Also, the
temperature of Dehradun is recorded to be maximum of 8°C and minimum of −2°C. Which of the two
places has
(a) Lower maximum temperature? (b) Higher minimum temperature?
Sol: We can easily compare the lower maximum temperatures and the higher minimum temperatures of the two
cities with the help of a number line. Let us draw a number line, which contains the maximum as well as the
minimum temperature of the cities, as shown below.
(a)
Maximum temperature of Shimla = 5°C
Maximum temperature of Dehradun = 8°C
From the number line, we can observe that 5°C < 8°C.
GRADE 6 108
Therefore, the maximum temperature of Shimla is lower than that of Dehradun.
(b)
Minimum temperature of Shimla = −4°C
Minimum temperature of Dehradun = −2°C
From the number line, we can observe that −2°C > −4°C.
Therefore, the minimum temperature of Dehradun is higher than that of Shimla.

(b) (−28) + (+19) can be written as (−28) + 19 and read as "negative twenty-eight plus nineteen".
(c) (−71) + (−34) can be written as (−71) + (−34) and read as "negative seventy-one plus negative thirty-four".
(d) (+156) + (+64) can be written as 156 + 64 and read as "hundred and fifty-six plus sixty-four".
Q.7 Find: 𝟒𝟖 − (−𝟓𝟐) − (−𝟐𝟓)

Q.8 Find: (−𝟕𝟒) + 𝟑𝟐 − 𝟏𝟗 − 𝟏𝟑
Sol: (−74) + 32 − 19 − 13 = (−74) + (32) + (−19) + (−13) [Additive inverse of 19 is (−19) and 13 is (−13)]
= {(−74) + (−19) + (−13)} + (32) (Arranging all the negative integers and positive integers in groups)

= {(−63) + (−37)} + (+100) (Arranging all the negative integers and positive integers in groups)
= (−100) + (+100) = 0
Q.10 Find the missing number: (+𝟏𝟒) − ⋯ + (−𝟏𝟎) = (+𝟏𝟏)
Sol: Let the missing number be x.
Thus, the given question becomes (+14) − x + (−10) = (+11)
Now, on adding x to both sides, we obtain (+14) − x + (−10) + x = (+11) + x

⇒ (+14) + (−10) = (+11) + x ⇒ (+4) = (+11) + x
Now, on subtracting +11 from both sides, we obtain (+4) − (+11) = (+11) + x − (+11)
⇒ (+4) + (−11) = 11 + x + (−11) [Additive inverse of 11 is −11]

⇒ (−7) = 11 + (−11) + x ⇒ (−7) = x ⇒ x = −7
Hence, (+14) − (−7) + (−10) = (+11)
GRADE 6 109
Q.11 Find the missing number: (−𝟐𝟐) − (+𝟏𝟓) − ⋯ = (−𝟔)
Sol: Let the missing number be x.
Thus, the given question becomes (−22) − (+15) − x = (−6)
On adding x to both sides, we obtain (−22) − (+15) − x + x = (−6) + x
⇒ (−22) + (−15) = x + (−6) [Additive inverse of +15 is −15]

⇒ (−37) = x + (−6)
On adding 6 to both sides, we obtain (−37) + 6 = x + (−6) + 6 ⇒ x = −31
Hence, (−22) − (+15) − (−31) = (−6)
Q.12 Write the integer, which is 4 more than its additive inverse.
Sol: Firstly, draw a number line.
Let +1 be an integer and its additive inverse is −1. From the number line, we see that 2 more than its additive
inverse. So, we reject this integer.
Again, let +2 be an integer and its additive inverse is −2. From the number line, we see that 4 more than its
additive inverse.
Hence, the required integer is 2.
Q.13 Write two integers, whose sum is 6 and difference is also 6.
Sol: We know that, 0 is an integer such that if we add any integer to it then we get the same integer and if we
subtract it from any integer, then also we get same integer. So, possible two integers are 6 and 0.
i.e. 6 + 0 = 6 and 6 – 0 = 6
Q.14 Which point on a number line represents neither a negative number nor a positive number?
Sol: We know that 0 can be written as +0 or −0. Therefore, 0 is such a number that is neither negative nor positive.
On the given number line, the position of 0 is represented by point o.
Therefore, 0 is the only point on the number line that represents neither a negative number nor a positive
number.

Q.10 Express each of the following in terms of litres (L) using decimals:
(a) 625 mL (b) 760 mL (c) 11 L 125 mL
Sol: (a)
1
We know that 1000 mL = 1 L ⇒ 1 mL = L
1000
625
∴ 625mL = L = 0.625 L.
1000
Thus, 625 mL = 0.625 L
GRADE 6 128
(b)
We know that 1000 mL = 1 L

760
∴ 760 mL = L = 0.760 L = 0.76 L.
1000
Thus, 760 mL = 0.76 L
(c)
We know that 1000 mL = 1 L

125
∴ 11L 125mL = 11 L + L = (11 +0.125) L = 11.125 L.
1000
Thus, 11 L 125 mL = 11.125 L

Here, whole part of all numbers are same and tenths part of 12.142, 12.124 and 12.104 are same.
Now, tenths part of 12.401 = 4/10 and tenths part of 12.214 = 2/10
∴ Hence, 12.401 > 12.214
Again, hundredths part of 12.142 is 4/100
∴ Hundredths part of 12.124 is 2/100 and hundredths part of 12.104 = 0/100

4 2 0
∴ > > ∴ 12.142 > 12.124 > 12.104

Q.21 (a) The length of Ramesh's notebook is 9 cm 5 mm. What will be its length in cm?
(b) The length of a young gram plant is 65 mm. Express its length in cm.
Sol: (a)
Given, length of Ramesh's notebook = 9 cm 5 mm
We know that, 10 mm =1 cm ⇒ 1 mm = 1/10 cm

Q.29 Tanuj walked 8.62 km on Monday, 7.05 km on Tuesday and some distance on Wednesday. If he walked
21.01 km in three days, how much distance did he walk on Wednesday?
Sol: Distance walked by Tanuj on Monday = 8.62 km
Distance walked by Tanuj on Tuesday = 7.05 km
Consider x km as the distance walked by Tanuj on Wednesday
Total distance = Distance walked by Tanuj on Monday + Distance walked by Tanuj on Tuesday + Distance
walked by Tanuj on Wednesday
By substituting the values 21.01 = 8.62 + 7.05 + x
On further calculation x = 21.01 – 8.62 – 7.05 = 5.34

Q.2 Write each given set in the Set- Builder form:

(d) {a, e, i, o, u} (e) {Tuesday, Thursday} (f) {1, 4, 9, 16, 25}

(g) {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30}

Sol: (a) {x: x is an even natural number less than 12}

(b) {x: x is a prime number less than 12}

(d) {x: x is a vowel in English alphabets }

(f) {x: x is a perfect square natural number upto 25}

(g) {x: x is a natural number upto 30 and divisible by 5}

number is 53 and the largest is 79.

So, we can write 52 < x < 80.

(b) Y = {5, 6, 6, 7, 11, 6, 13, 11, 8}

(c) Z = {natural numbers between 20 and 50, which are divisible by 7}

Given, X = {letters in the word MALAYALAM}

Therefore, cardinal number of set X = 4, i.e., n(X) = 4

Given, Y = {5, 6, 6, 7, 11, 6, 13, 11, 8}

Then, Y = {5, 6, 7, 11, 13, 8}

Therefore, cardinal number of set Y = 6, i.e., n(Y) = 6

Given, Z = {natural numbers between 20 and 50, which are divisible by 7}

Then, Z = {21, 28, 35, 42, 49}

Therefore, cardinal number of set Z = 5, i.e., n(Z) = 5
