Question 5: Convert :

(a) 5 litre 60 ml into litre

5 litre 60 ml = 5 litre + 60 ml

also, 1 ml = 1/1000 litre

so,  5 litre + 60 ×1/1000 litre = 5 litre + 0.060 litre = 5.060 litre

(b) 4 hm 20 m into hm

4 hm 20 m = 4 hm + 20 m

also, 1 m= 1/100 hm 

so,  4 hm + 20 ×1/100 hm = 4 hm + 0.20 hm = 4.20 hm

(c) 7 g 76 cg into g

7 g 76 cg = 7 g + 76 cg 

also, 1cg = 1/100 g

so, 7 g + 76 ×1/100 g = 7 g + 0.76 g = 7.76 g

(d) 3,200 cm into dam and cm.

3,200 cm = 3,000 cm + 200 cm

also, 1 cm= 1/1000 dam

so, 3,000 ×1/1000 dam + 200 cm = 3 dam + 200 cm = 3 dam 200 cm

(e) 2,593 mg into g and mg

2,593 mg = 2,000 mg + 593 mg

also, 1 mg= 1/1000 g 
so, 2,000 ×1/1000 g + 593 mg = 2 g + 593 mg = 2 g 593 mg

(f) 8,305 ml into l and ml.

8,305 ml = 8,000 ml + 305 ml

also, 1 ml= 1/1000 l 

so,  8,000 ×1/1000 l + 305 ml = 8 l + 305 ml = 8 l 305 ml


Question 6: A family consumes 32 kg 250 g of wheat and 18 kg 600 g of rice in a month. Find the difference in consumption of wheat and rice.

Conversion Table:

Wheat consumed = 32 kg 250 g

Rice consumed = 18 kg 600 g

Difference in consumption of wheat and rice = 32 kg 250 g – 18 kg 600 g

Hence, required difference is 13 kg 650 g


Question 7: Mohan covered a distance of 15 km 275 m in the first hour and 18 km 803 m in the second hour. What distance did he cover in two hours?

Conversion Table:Distance covered in first hour = 15 km 275 m.

Distance covered in second hour = 18 km 803 m

Total distance covered in 2 hours

= 15 km 275 m + 18 km 803 m

= 33 km + 1,000 m + 78 m = 34 km 78 m.

Hence, Mohan covered 34 km 78 m in two hours.

Question 10: 7410 ml soup was made. It was equally distributed among 6 persons. How much soup was given to each person?

Conversion Table:
Total quantity of soup = 7410 ml = 7.410 l 

Number of persons = 6

Soup given to each person = 7.410 ÷ 6 = 1.235 l 

Hence, each person gets 1.235 l = 1235 ml soup.


Question 11: The length of ribbon required for making a design is 4 m 16 cm. What is the length of the ribbon required for making 8 such designs?

Conversion Table:

Length of ribbon required for 1 design = 4 m 16 cm

Number of designs = 8

Total length of ribbon required = 4 m 16 cm × 8

Hence, required length of ribbon = 33 m 28 cm.


Question 12: Divide :

(a) 6 kg 128 g by 4

We can do the divisions by decimal notation as it is easier.

6 kg 128 g = 6.128 kg

Conversion Table:

Thus, Q uotient = 1.532 kg = 1 kg 532 g

Hence, 6 kg 128 g ÷ 4 = 1 kg 532 g.

(b) 7 m 53 cm by 3

7 m 53 cm = 7.53 m

Conversion Table:

Thus, quotient = 2.51 m = 2 m 51 cm

Hence, 7 m 53 cm ÷ 3 = 2 m 51 cm.

(c) 7 l 52 ml by 4

7 l 52 ml = 7.052 l

in decimal notation

Conversion Table:

= 41 712 ml.

(c) 18 kg 615 g by 5

Conversion Table:

= 90 kg + 3,000 g + 75 g

= 90 kg + 3 kg + 75 g = 93 kg 75 g.

in decimal notation

Conversion Table:

= 93 kg 75 g.

(d) 18 cm 6 mm by 9

Conversion Table:

= 162 cm + 50 mm + 4 mm

= 162 cm + 5 cm + 4 mm
