FAQ
How can you quickly count laddoos arranged in rectangular trays?
Count the number of laddoos in one row and multiply by the number of rows in one tray, then multiply by the number of stacked trays.
What is the difference between even and odd numbers in Chapter 3?
Numbers that can be grouped into exact pairs of 2 with none left over (ending in 0, 2, 4, 6, 8) are even numbers; numbers that leave 1 unpaired (ending in 1, 3, 5, 7, 9) are odd numbers.
