CBSE Class 3 Mathematics: Fun With Numbers NCERT Solutions

Let's analyze the number of seeds collected by each child:

• Radhika: 24 seeds
• Gauri: 47 seeds
• Sunil: 38 seeds
• Indra: 54 seeds
• Vicky: 42 seeds

Now, let's fill in the blanks:

(a) To find who collected the most seeds, we compare the numbers: 24, 47, 38, 54, 42. The largest number is 54, which was collected by Indra. So, Indra collected the most seeds.

(b) Sunil collected 38 seeds and Vicky collected 42 seeds. To find how many more seeds Sunil needs to equal Vicky, we calculate the difference: 42 - 38 = 4. Sunil will collect 4 more seeds to be equal to Vicky.

(c) Radhika collected 24 seeds. If she gets 6 more seeds, she will have 24 + 6 = 30 seeds. So, she will have 30 seeds.

(d) We need to count how many children have more than 40 seeds. Let's check each child:

Radhika: 24 (not more than 40)

Gauri: 47 (more than 40)

Sunil: 38 (not more than 40)

Indra: 54 (more than 40)

Vicky: 42 (more than 40)

There are 3 children (Gauri, Indra, and Vicky) who have more than 40 seeds. So, the answer is 3.

(e) We need to find who needs 3 more seeds to reach 50. This means we are looking for a child who has 50 - 3 = 47 seeds. Gauri collected 47 seeds. So, Gauri needs 3 more seeds to have 50.

(f) Sunil has 38 seeds, which is 2 seeds less than 40 (40 - 2 = 38). We need to find who has 2 seeds more than 40, which is 40 + 2 = 42 seeds. Vicky collected 42 seeds. So, Sunil has 2 seeds less than 40 and Vicky has 2 seeds more than 40.

A century in cricket means scoring 100 runs. The problem states Dhoni scored 96 runs and asks to complete the equation to show his total runs, implying he scored a few more runs to reach a certain total. The provided answer suggests he scored 6 more runs to reach 102. Let's complete the equation based on this:

Dhoni scored 96 runs. If he scored 6 more runs, his total would be 96 + 6 = 102 runs.

So, the completed equation is: Dhoni scored 96 + 6 = 102 runs.

A century is 100 runs. To find out how many runs each player needs to complete a century, we subtract their current score from 100.

• Player 1: Scored 93 runs. Runs needed = 100 - 93 = 7 runs.
• Player 2: Scored 97 runs. Runs needed = 100 - 97 = 3 runs.
• Player 3: Scored 89 runs. Runs needed = 100 - 89 = 11 runs.
• Player 4: Scored 99 runs. Runs needed = 100 - 99 = 1 run.

This question provides a table with numbers written in figures and their corresponding spellings in words. The task is to fill in the blanks, which implies understanding how to read and write numbers. The table itself serves as the answer, demonstrating the correct conversion between figures and words for numbers ranging from 99 to 206.

For example:

• The number 99 in figures is written as 'Ninety-nine' in words.
• The number 100 in figures is written as 'One hundred' in words.
• The number 195 in figures is written as 'One hundred ninety-five' in words.
• The number 206 in figures is written as 'Two hundred six' in words.

The table is complete as provided, showing the correct representation of each number.

A triple century means scoring 300 runs. The current score is 206 runs. To find out how many more runs are needed to reach 300, we subtract the current score from 300.

Runs needed = Triple century - Current score

Runs needed = 300 - 206

Calculating the difference: 300 - 206 = 94.

So, 94 more runs are needed to make a triple century.

Let's analyze the scores from the table:

• P. J.: 128
• A.S.: 100
• C.K.: 99
• D.M.: 162
• K.S.P.: 152
• M. D.: 178
• P. K.: 105
• S. T.: 141
• T. P. K.: 112
• V. V. S.: 127

Now, let's answer the questions:

1. C. K. just missed his century. How many runs did he need to make a century?

A century is 100 runs. C.K. scored 99 runs. Runs needed = 100 - 99 = 1 run. So, C.K. needed 1 run.

2. _______ and _______ scored almost equal runs.

We look for scores that are very close to each other. Let's examine the scores: 100, 99, 105, 112, 127, 128. The scores 100 (A.S.) and 99 (C.K.) are very close. Also, 127 (V.V.S.) and 128 (P.J.) are very close. The provided answer suggests A.S. and C.K. or A.P.J. and V.V.S. (assuming A.P.J. is a typo for P.J.). Let's use A.S. (100) and C.K. (99) as they are closest. Another pair is P.J. (128) and V.V.S. (127). The answer key mentions A.S. and C.K. or A.P.J. and V.V.S. Let's list A.S. (100) and C.K. (99) as one pair, and P.J. (128) and V.V.S. (127) as another pair.

3. _______ scored a complete century, no less, no more.

A complete century means exactly 100 runs. Looking at the scores, A.S. scored exactly 100 runs. So, A.S. scored a complete century.

4. Most runs scored by any batsman are ____

We need to find the highest score in the table. Comparing all scores: 128, 100, 99, 162, 152, 178, 105, 141, 112, 127. The highest score is 178, scored by M. D. So, the most runs scored are 178.

5. _______ and _______ have a difference of just 1 run between them.

We look for pairs of scores with a difference of 1. From question 2, we identified A.S. (100) and C.K. (99) have a difference of 1. Also, P.J. (128) and V.V.S. (127) have a difference of 1. The answer key mentions A.S. and C.K. or A.P.J. and V.V.S. Let's list A.S. (100) and C.K. (99), and P.J. (128) and V.V.S. (127).

6. _______ scored 2 more runs than one and a half century.

One and a half century is 100 + 50 = 150 runs. We need to find a score that is 2 more than 150, which is 150 + 2 = 152 runs. Looking at the table, K.S.P. scored 152 runs. So, K.S.P. scored 2 more runs than one and a half century.
