Practice questions

Q1Which statements are correct? 1. Zero can hold a place in a number. 2. The place value of a digit depends on its position in the number. 3. Multiplication in primary classes can begin with equal groups.

A Only 1 and 2
B Only 2 and 3
C Only 1 and 3
D 1, 2 and 3
Explanation

All three are correct. Zero keeps an empty place visible, the place value of a digit depends on the position it occupies in the number, and multiplication grows naturally from equal groups such as packets of seeds or rows of shells.

Q2Which classroom action best shows one-to-one correspondence while counting 12 beads?

A Saying the number words from 1 to 12 very fast without touching the beads
B Touching each bead once and saying the next number word with that touch
C Counting the first five beads and then guessing the remaining number
D Counting from 12 backward because the total number is already known
Explanation

One-to-one correspondence means one object gets one and only one number word. Fast recitation, guessing, or backward counting may show memory of number words, but they do not show that every bead has been counted exactly once.

Q3Arrange these numbers in ascending order: 9,999; 10,000; 9,090; 10,010.

A 9,090; 9,999; 10,000; 10,010
B 10,000; 10,010; 9,090; 9,999
C 9,999; 9,090; 10,000; 10,010
D 9,090; 10,000; 9,999; 10,010
Explanation

Numbers are compared from the highest place value. Any five-digit number here is greater than the four-digit numbers, and 9,090 comes before 9,999 while 10,000 comes before 10,010.

Q4Which list shows Indian place names in the correct order from ones to crore?

A ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, lakhs, ten thousands, ten lakhs, crore
B ones, tens, thousands, hundreds, ten thousands, lakhs, ten lakhs, crore
C ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, lakhs, ten lakhs, crore
D ones, tens, hundreds, ten thousands, thousands, lakhs, crore, ten lakhs
Explanation

Indian place names move as ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, lakhs, ten lakhs and crore. The other lists either swap adjacent places or put crore before ten lakhs, which breaks the value order.

Q5Which pair correctly matches the operation with its primary classroom meaning?

A Subtraction — making equal groups
B Division — joining two collections
C Multiplication — equal groups or repeated addition
D Addition — taking away objects
Explanation

Imran making four equal groups of three shells is modelling multiplication before writing a formal symbol. REET options often hide operation meaning in simple words, so the candidate should first read the situation, then name the operation.
