Class 5 Maths Chapter 13 HOTS Questions - Chapter 13 - Ways of Multiply and Divide

Q1: If a child's  weight=35kg, then weight of 12 similar children is?
(a) 350kg
(b) 340kg
(c) 420kg
(d) 400kg
Ans: (c)
Sol: Weight of 12 Children = No. of children × weight of one child
= 12 × 35 kg
= 420 kg

Q2: Find 105 × 106
Sol:


Q3: Multiply : 44 × 567 × 1
(a) 44
(b) 567
(c) 24948
(d) 1
Ans: (c)
Sol: 
We know that any number multiplied by 1 will always result in that number itself. Therefore, we only multiply 44 and 567 as follows:
44 × 567 = 24948
Hence, 44 × 567 × 1 = 24948

Q4: Evaluate: 625 ÷ 125
(a) 125
(b) 25
(c) 31
(d) 5
Ans: (d)
Sol: The natural number 625 can be divided by another natural number 125 as follows:
625 ÷ 125 = 625/125 = 5
Hence, 625 ÷ 125 = 5

Q5: Fill in the blanks
When a whole number a is divided by a non-zero whole number b, then there exist whole numbers q and r such that a=bq + r, where either r = ____ or r = _____.
Sol: When a whole number a is divided by a non-zero whole number b, then there exist whole numbers q and r such that a=bq+r, where either r= 0  or r =  r < b.

Q6: Find the value of 4132 x 27.
(a) 111564
(b) 121564
(c) 131564
(d) 1331564
Ans: (a)

Q7: Farmer Gopal packed an equal number of oranges into each of the 15 baskets. If each basket contained 85 oranges, how many oranges did he pack ?
(a) 1000
(b) 1527
(c) 1275
(d) 1725
Ans: (c)
Sol: Each basket contained 85 oranges
Therefore, the number of oranges in 15 baskets
= 15 × 85
= 1275

Q8: Fill in the blanks :
On dividing 9 by 7 , quotient = ________ and remainder = ________
Ans: On dividing 9 by 7 , quotient = 1 and remainder = 2 

Q9: Fill in the blanks :
27 × 3000 =______.
Sol:
27 × 3,000 = 27 × 3 × 1000
= 81 × 1000
= 81,000

Q10: Divide using the repeated subtraction method.
20 ÷ 10
Sol: 
20 − 10 = 10
10 − 10 = 0
We have to subtract 10 from 20 two times, thus the quotient is 2.
Therefore,
20 ÷ 10 = 2
