Kirti bookstore sold books worth ₹ 2,85,891 in the first week of June and books worth ₹ 4,00,768 in the second week of the month. How much was the sale for the two weeks together? In which week was the sale greater and by how much?
Solution:
Price of books sold in the first week = ₹ 285891 .
Price of books sold in the second week = ₹ 400768
Price of books sold in two weeks = ₹ 285891 + ₹ 400768
Now,
∴ Sale in two weeks is of ₹ 686659
Since 400768 > 285891
∴ Sale in the second week is greater.
Difference in the sales amount = ₹ 400768 – ₹ 285891
Now,
∴ Sale in the second week is more by ₹ 114877.

To stitch a shirt, 2 in 15 cm cloth is needed. Out of 40 m cloth, how many shirts can be stitched and how much cloth will
remain?
Solution:
Total cloth = 40 m = 40 x 100 cm
= 4000 cm
Cloth needed for 1 shirt = 2 m 15 cm
= 2 x 100 cm + 15 cm = 215 cm
Number of shirts stitched out of total cloth = 4000 ÷ 215
Now,
∴ 18 shirts can be stitched and cloth left over is 130 cm i.e., 1 m 30 cm.

Medicine is packed in boxes, each weighing 4 kg 500g. How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 800 kg?
Solution:
Van can carry a weight of 800 kg i.e., 800000 g
Weight of one packet = 4 kg 500 g = 4500 g
Number of packets that can be loaded in the van = 800000 + 4500
Now,
∴177 packets can be loaded in the van.

The distance between the school and the house of a student is 1 km 875 m. Everyday she walks both ways. Find the total distance covered by her in six days.
Solution:
Distance of school from house = 1 km 875 m
Distance walked by the student both ways between school and home
= 1 km 875m x 2
Now,
∴ Distance walked in 1 day = 3 km 750 m
Distance walked in 6 days = 3 km 750 m x 6
Now,
∴ Distance walked in 6 days = 22km 500 m.

A vessel has 4 litres and 500 ml of curd. In how-many glasses, each of 25 ml capacity, can it be filled?
Solution:
Capacity of vessel = 4l 500 ml
= 4 x 1000 ml + 500 ml = 4500 ml
