Decoration for Celebration! — Complete the Table

1Each garland has 10 flowers. Complete the given table for Rohan, Simran, Akash, Suwali, Javed, and Zoha.Show solution
Given: Each garland has 10 flowers.

We write the number of tens (garlands) and ones (extra flowers) and find the total.

| Name | Tens (garlands) | Ones (extra flowers) | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rohan | 1 | 2 | 10+2=1210 + 2 = 12 |
| Simran | 3 | 7 | 30+7=3730 + 7 = 37 |
| Akash | 4 | 8 | 40+8=4840 + 8 = 48 |
| Suwali | 5 | 3 | 50+3=5350 + 3 = 53 |
| Javed | 4 | 3 | 40+3=4340 + 3 = 43 |
| Zoha | 2 | 0 | 20+0=2020 + 0 = 20 |

(Note: Javed's and Zoha's values are read from the picture described in the chapter. Javed = 43 flowers, Zoha = 20 flowers.)

How many flowers are used by Rohan and Suwali together?

1Rohan has 12 flowers and Suwali has 53 flowers. How many flowers do they have together?Show solution
Given:
- Rohan's flowers = 1212
- Suwali's flowers = 5353

We add using the column method (Tens and Ones):

TO12+  5365\begin{array}{r} \text{T} \quad \text{O} \\ 1 \quad 2 \\ +\; 5 \quad 3 \\ \hline 6 \quad 5 \end{array}

Step 1: Add Ones → 2+3=52 + 3 = 5
Step 2: Add Tens → 1+5=61 + 5 = 6

12+53=6512 + 53 = \boxed{65}

Rohan and Suwali together have 65 flowers.

How many flowers are used by Zoha and Javed in all?

1Zoha has 20 flowers and Javed has 43 flowers. How many flowers do they have in all?Show solution
Given:
- Zoha's flowers = 2020
- Javed's flowers = 4343

Using column method:

TO20+  4363\begin{array}{r} \text{T} \quad \text{O} \\ 2 \quad 0 \\ +\; 4 \quad 3 \\ \hline 6 \quad 3 \end{array}

Step 1: Add Ones → 0+3=30 + 3 = 3
Step 2: Add Tens → 2+4=62 + 4 = 6

20+43=6320 + 43 = \boxed{63}

Zoha and Javed together have 63 flowers.
2What is the total number of flowers used by Zoha and Akash?Show solution
Given:
- Zoha's flowers = 2020 (Tens = 2, Ones = 0)
- Akash's flowers = 4848 (Tens = 4, Ones = 8)

Using column method:

TO20+  4868\begin{array}{r} \text{T} \quad \text{O} \\ 2 \quad 0 \\ +\; 4 \quad 8 \\ \hline 6 \quad 8 \end{array}

Step 1: Add Ones → 0+8=80 + 8 = 8
Step 2: Add Tens → 2+4=62 + 4 = 6

20+48=6820 + 48 = \boxed{68}

Zoha and Akash together have 68 flowers.

| | Tens | Ones | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zoha brings | 2 | 0 | 20+0=2020 + 0 = 20 |
| Akash brings | 4 | 8 | 40+8=4840 + 8 = 48 |
| Together | 6 | 8 | 60+8=6860 + 8 = 68 |
3What is the total number of flowers used by Rohan and Simran?Show solution
Given:
- Rohan's flowers = 1212 (Tens = 1, Ones = 2)
- Simran's flowers = 3737 (Tens = 3, Ones = 7)

Using column method:

TO12+  3749\begin{array}{r} \text{T} \quad \text{O} \\ 1 \quad 2 \\ +\; 3 \quad 7 \\ \hline 4 \quad 9 \end{array}

Step 1: Add Ones → 2+7=92 + 7 = 9
Step 2: Add Tens → 1+3=41 + 3 = 4

12+37=4912 + 37 = \boxed{49}

Rohan and Simran together have 49 flowers.

| | Tens | Ones | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rohan brings | 1 | 2 | 10+2=1210 + 2 = 12 |
| Simran brings | 3 | 7 | 30+7=3730 + 7 = 37 |
| Together | 4 | 9 | 40+9=4940 + 9 = 49 |

Project Work — Verify Daljeet's Answers

1Daljeet has solved some questions and written down their answers. Verify the answers and correct them if wrong. (Note: The specific sums are in the image. Based on typical examples in this chapter, we verify common addition and subtraction problems.)Show solution
Note: The exact sums in Daljeet's work are in the image which cannot be fully read. However, here is how to verify any answer:

Method to verify addition: If Daljeet wrote 36+47=8336 + 47 = 83, check:
36+47: Ones: 6+7=13 (write 3, carry 1), Tens: 3+4+1=836 + 47: \text{ Ones: } 6+7=13 \text{ (write 3, carry 1)}, \text{ Tens: } 3+4+1=8
Answer=83 (Correct)\text{Answer} = 83 \checkmark \text{ (Correct)}

Method to verify subtraction: If Daljeet wrote 5428=3654 - 28 = 36, check:
5428: Regroup: Ones: 148=6, Tens: 42=254 - 28: \text{ Regroup: Ones: } 14-8=6, \text{ Tens: } 4-2=2
Answer=2636 (Wrong — correct answer is 26)\text{Answer} = 26 \neq 36 \text{ (Wrong — correct answer is 26)}

General Rule: Students should redo each sum step by step using the column method (Tens and Ones), check if regrouping is needed, and compare with Daljeet's answer. If different, write the correct answer.
