On dividing 19,009 by 11, quotient = 1,728 and remainder = 1.
On dividing 9,090 by 11, quotient = 826 and remainder = 4.
On multiplying the remainders, we get
4 x 1 = 4

Given,
Principal (P) = ₹1000
Time (t)=1 year
Rate (r)=10% p.a.
We know, SI= (P×t×r)/100
∴ SI = (1000×1×10)/100 = ₹100
Hence, the correct answer is ₹100.

Given:
Time taken to cover 50 km is 8 hours
Speed on his foot is 4 km/h
Speed on bicycle is 10 km/h
Formula used:
Speed = Distance/Time
Calculation:
Let the distance covered on foot be x km
Distance covered by bicycle is (50 - x) km
According to question
⇒ x/4 + (50 - x)/10 = 8
⇒ (5x + 100 - 2x)/20 = 8
⇒ 3x + 100 = 160
⇒ 3x = 60
⇒ x = 20 km
∴ The distance travelled on foot is 20 km.

From the given information given in the figure:
The number of cubical blocks = ?
Now, the one-centimetre cubical boxes placed horizontally = 5
Number of boxes vertically = 3
Number of cubical box slides = 3
Total number of cubical boxes =5×3×3=45

Piaget's work is based on heredity as well as variations in source, nature, and limitations of knowledge. According to Piaget, cognitive development takes place at different rates at different stages of development depending upon the understanding of how children acquire knowledge, and the nature of intelligence which can be summaries as follows:

• Sensorimotor stage: birth to 2 years
• Preoperational stage: ages 2 to 7
• Concrete operational stage: ages 7 to 11
• Formal operational stage: ages 12 and up

Mathematics is a study of patterns, numbers, geometrical objects, data, and information. It deals with data analysis, integration of various fields of knowledge, involves proofs, deductive - inductive reasoning, and generalizations.

• The teaching of mathematics should be done in the way, in which a student learns the best i.e., following the child-centered approach by engaging students actively in the learning.

To understand the two-dimensional shapes we need to understand their properties based on their dimensions, and then we need to develop an intuitive approach to understand the properties. So the process must begin with sorting of the different 2-d shapes followed by observing the different sides and corners and similarities & dissimilarities between them. Then we should count the sides, diagonals, etc of the different shapes given to us. Then we need to develop an intuitive approach to understand the properties and visualize the shape accordingly.
Hence, the correct statements are, 'III, I, IV, II.'

The important role of a Mathematics teacher in a class is to act as a facilitator and help the children learn the concept.
