Q1A water bottle holds 2 litres of water. How many millilitres does the bottle hold?
One litre equals one thousand millilitres. So 2 litres equals 2 multiplied by 1,000, which is 2,000 millilitres. Children learn this rule when they pour water from a bigger jar into a smaller cup in a Class 3 to 5 activity.
Q2A bag of rice weighs 5 kilograms. What is its weight in grams?
One kilogram equals one thousand grams. So 5 kilograms equals 5 multiplied by 1,000, which is 5,000 grams. Primary learners check this rule by reading the label on a rice or sugar packet at home.
Q3Read the two statements about time and the calendar. Statement 1: A leap year has 366 days. Statement 2: February has 30 days in a leap year. Which of the following is correct?
A leap year has 366 days, so Statement 1 is correct. February has 29 days in a leap year, not 30, so Statement 2 is wrong. The extra day is added at the end of February once every four years to keep the calendar in step with the seasons.
Q4Arrange the following lengths in ascending order: 1 metre, 75 centimetres, 1,200 millimetres, 0.5 metre.
Convert all to centimetres first. 0.5 metre is 50 centimetres, 75 centimetres is 75 centimetres, 1 metre is 100 centimetres, and 1,200 millimetres is 120 centimetres. So the ascending order is 50 < 75 < 100 < 120, which matches option D.
Q5Which of the following statements about Indian currency is INCORRECT for a primary-stage classroom?
One rupee is made up of one hundred paise, not one thousand paise. So Statement C is the incorrect one. Primary learners practice this when they convert small money amounts into paise during a market role-play.
