(1) 744

Step 1
One dozen oranges means 12 oranges. The athlete eats 2 dozen oranges in a day.

Step 2
This means that the number of oranges he eats in a day = 12 × 2 = 24 oranges

Step 3
We know that there are 31 days in the month of July.

Step 4
Hence, the number of oranges the athlete will eat in the month of July = The number of oranges he
eats in one day × The number of days in the month of July
= 24 × 31
= 744 oranges

(2) € 291120

Step 1
Rent for one room is € 3639.

Step 2
Rent for 80 rooms would be 80 times 3639, that is, 80 × 3639
= €291120

Step 3
Hence, the daily income of the hotel from the room rental, if all the rooms are occupied, is
€291120.
(3) 402612

Step 1
There are 7 days in a week. This means, the number of days in 6 weeks = 7 times 6
= 7 × 6 days
= 42 days

Step 2
We need to calculate the number of cricket bats manufactured in 6 weeks.

Step 3
This means, we need to calculate the number of cricket bats manufactured in 42 days.

Step 4
Hence, the number of cricket bats manufactured by the factory in 42 days = The number of cricket
bats manufactured by the factory in 1 day × The number of days
= 9586 × 42
= 402612 cricket bats

(4) A) 183806

Step 1
We have to find the product of 4837 and 38.

Step 2
Now, 38 can be written as: 30 + 8.
Since we know that multiplication is distributive over addition, we can say that:
4837 × 38, or 4837 × (30 + 8) = 4837 × 30 + 4837 × 8

Step 3
4837 × 30 = 145110
4837 × 8 = 38696

Step 4
On adding the products, we get:
145110 + 38696 = 183806

Step 5
Therefore, the product of 4837 and 38 is 183806.
B) 359255

Step 1
We have to find the product of 5527 and 65.

Step 2
Now, 65 can be written as: 60 + 5.
Since we know that multiplication is distributive over addition, we can say that:
5527 × 65, or 5527 × (60 + 5) = 5527 × 60 + 5527 × 5

Step 3
5527 × 60 = 331620
5527 × 5 = 27635

Step 4
On adding the products, we get:
331620 + 27635 = 359255

Step 5
Therefore, the product of 5527 and 65 is 359255.

C) 23760

Step 1
We have to find the product of 1980 and 12.

Step 2
Now, 12 can be written as: 10 + 2.
Since we know that multiplication is distributive over addition, we can say that:
1980 × 12, or 1980 × (10 + 2) = 1980 × 10 + 1980 × 2

Step 3
1980 × 10 = 19800
1980 × 2 = 3960

Step 4
On adding the products, we get:
19800 + 3960 = 23760

Step 5
Therefore, the product of 1980 and 12 is 23760.
D) 184450

Step 1
We have to find the product of 2975 and 62.

Step 2
Now, 62 can be written as: 60 + 2.
Since we know that multiplication is distributive over addition, we can say that:
2975 × 62, or 2975 × (60 + 2) = 2975 × 60 + 2975 × 2

Step 3
2975 × 60 = 178500
2975 × 2 = 5950

Step 4
On adding the products, we get:
178500 + 5950 = 184450

Step 5
Therefore, the product of 2975 and 62 is 184450.

E) 256500

Step 1
We have to find the product of 4500 and 57.

Step 2
Now, 57 can be written as: 50 + 7.
Since we know that multiplication is distributive over addition, we can say that:
4500 × 57, or 4500 × (50 + 7) = 4500 × 50 + 4500 × 7

Step 3
4500 × 50 = 225000
4500 × 7 = 31500

Step 4
On adding the products, we get:
225000 + 31500 = 256500

Step 5
Therefore, the product of 4500 and 57 is 256500.
 F) 745682

Step 1
We have to find the product of 7609 and 98.

Step 2
Now, 98 can be written as: 90 + 8.
Since we know that multiplication is distributive over addition, we can say that:
7609 × 98, or 7609 × (90 + 8) = 7609 × 90 + 7609 × 8

Step 3
7609 × 90 = 684810
7609 × 8 = 60872

Step 4
On adding the products, we get:
684810 + 60872 = 745682

Step 5
Therefore, the product of 7609 and 98 is 745682.

(5) 8760

Step 1
Given, the body builder eats 2 dozen eggs in a day.

Step 2
We know a dozen eggs means 12 eggs. This means, the body builder eats 2 × 12 eggs = 24 eggs
in a day.

Step 3
Hence, the number of eggs the body builder will eat in a year = The number of eggs the body
builder eats in a day × The number of days in a year
= 24 × 365
= 8760 eggs

(6) € 189

Step 1
The cost of each pen is € 27.

Step 2
This means, the money Maxim paid for 7 pens is 7 × € 27 = € 189.
(7) 49

Step 1
According to the question, the total number of sharpeners in the bag = 7
We are also given that there are 7 times as many erasers as sharpeners in the bag.
So, the number of erasers in the bag = 7 times the number of sharpeners
= 7 × number of sharpeners
=7×7
= 49

Step 2
Hence, there are 49 erasers in the bag.

(8) 2884

Step 1
There are 7 days in a week. This means, the number of days in 4 weeks = 7 times 4
= 7 × 4 days
= 28 days

Step 2
We need to calculate the number of guitars manufactured in 4 weeks.

Step 3
This means, we need to calculate the number of guitars manufactured in 28 days.

Step 4
Hence, the number of guitars manufactured by the factory in 28 days = The number of guitars
manufactured by the factory in 1 day × The number of days
= 103 * 28
= 2884 guitars

(9) 2184 km.

Step 1
The train travels 91 km in one hour.

Step 2
This means, the train will travel 24 times 91 km in one day because we have 24 hours in a day.

Step 3
Hence, the train will travel 24 × 91 km = 2184 km in a day.
(10) A) 1400056

Step 1
Let us first evaluate what is inside the brackets: 100+80+4 = 184

Step 2
Now, the problem becomes 7609 x 184.
7609 x 184 = 1400056

B) 5429583

Step 1
Let us first evaluate what is inside the brackets: 600+30+9 = 639

Step 2
Now, the problem becomes 8497 x 639.
8497 x 639 = 5429583

(11) 110

Step 1
Total number of people who ate pizza slices = Number of Roman's friends + 1 (Roman himself)
= 21 + 1
= 22

Step 2
Total number of slices eaten by each person = 5

Step 3
Total number of slices eaten by Roman and his friends = Total number of people × Total number
of slices eaten by each person
= 22 × 5
= 110

Step 4
Hence, Roman had ordered 110 slices.
(12) A) two million five hundred thirty-nine thousand five hundred fifty-one

Step 1
Let us first convert the given number into numerals:
two thousand five hundred seventy-three = 2573
nine hundred eighty-seven = 987

Step 2
The product will be:
2573
× 987

18011
205840
2315700

2539551

Step 3
Therefore, the product of two thousand five hundred seventy-three by nine hundred
eighty-seven is two million five hundred thirty-nine thousand five hundred fifty-
one.

B) eight million nine hundred twenty-seven thousand eight hundred forty-one

Step 1
Let us first convert the given number into numerals:
nine thousand nine hundred fifty-three = 9953
eight hundred ninety-seven = 897

Step 2
The product will be:
9953
× 897

69671
895770
7962400

8927841

Step 3
Therefore, the product of nine thousand nine hundred fifty-three by eight hundred
ninety-seven is eight million nine hundred twenty-seven thousand eight hundred
forty-one.
(13) d. 6 × 7

Step 1
If we multiply the number of pencils in each row with the total number of rows, we can get the total
number of pencils.

Step 2
Number of pencils = Number of rows × pencils in each row
=6×7
= 42

Step 3
Here, the expression used to find the total number of pencils is multiplication, that is, 6 × 7.

(14) d. 3 × 80 + 3 × 4

Step 1
Here, we have to find the expression for 3 × 84.
We know, 84 = 80 + 4
Replacing 84 by 80 + 4 in the given expression:
3 × 84 = 3 × (80 + 4)
= 3 × 80 + 3 × 4 (by using the distributive property of addition)

Step 2
We conclude that 3 × 84 can also be represented as 3 × 80 + 3 × 4 and 3 × 80 + 3 × 4.

Step 3
On observing the given options, we conclude that option d is the correct answer.
