  • From the table, 54 is the highest number of seeds collected by anyone. It is Indra who collected 54 seeds. So, Indra collected the most seeds.
  • From the table, Sunil collected 38 seeds, and Vicky collected 42 seeds. So, Sunil will need 42 − 38 = 4 more seeds to be equal to Vicky. Therefore, Sunil will collect 4 more seeds to be equal to Vicky.
  • From the table, Radhika has collected 24 seeds. If she gets 6 more seeds, then she will have 24 + 6 = 30 seeds. Therefore, if Radhika gets 6 more seeds, she will have 30 seeds.
  • From the table, Gauri, Vicky and Indra each have collected more than 40 seeds. Therefore, three children have more than 40 seeds.
  • From the table, Gauri has collected 47 seeds. To have 50 seeds, she will need 50 – 47 = 3 more seeds. Therefore, Gauri needs 3 more seeds to have 50.
  • Two seeds more than 40 means, 40 + 2 = 42. From the table, Vicky has collected 42 seeds. Therefore, Sunil has 2 seeds less than 40 and Vicky has 2 seeds more than 40

Question 3 :

Fill in the blanks:

Answer :

 Count in 50’s and write the missing numbers by adding 50 to the previous number.
250 + 50 = 300 550 + 50 = 600
350 + 50 = 400 650 + 50 = 700
400 + 50 = 450 750 + 50 = 800
The correct answer is


Question 4 :

Fill in the blanks:

Answer :

Count in 10’s, write the following number by adding 10 to the last number.

10 100 + 10 = 110 310 710
10 + 10 = 20 110 + 10 = 120 310 + 10 = 320 710 + 10 = 720
20 + 10 = 30 120 + 10 = 130 320 + 10 = 330 720 + 10 = 730
30 + 10 = 40 130 + 10 = 140 330 + 10 = 340 730 + 10 = 740
40 + 10 = 50 140 + 10 = 150 340 + 10 = 350 740 + 10 = 750
50 + 10 = 60 150 + 10 = 160 350 + 10 = 360 750 + 10 = 760
60 + 10 = 70 160 + 10 = 170 360 + 10 = 370 760 + 10 = 770
70 + 10 = 80 170 + 10 = 180 370 + 10 =380 770 + 10 = 780
80 + 10 = 90 180 + 10 = 190 380 + 10 = 390 780 + 10 = 790
90 + 10 = 100 190 + 10 = 200 390 + 10 = 400 790 + 10 = 800
