Tamilnadu Samacheer Kalvi 6th Maths Solutions Term 2 Chapter 2 Measurements Additional Questions

Question 1.
Convert into indicated units: 200 mg into g.
Solution:
200 mg = \(200.0 \times \frac{1}{1000}\) = 0.2 g

Question 2.
(a) What are the universally accepted basic metric units?
(b) A cow gives 10 litres of milk in the morning and 8 litres in the evening. Find the total milk it gives for a week in ml?
Solution:
(a) Universally accepted basic metric units are:
Length in metre, Weight in gram and Capacity (Volume) in litre.
(b) Litres of milk the cow gives in the morning = 10 l.
Litres of milk the cow gives in the evening = 8 l.
Total milk per day = 10 + 8 = 18 l
Total milk for a week = 18 × 7 l = 126 l = 126 × 1000 ml = 126000 ml.
Total milk the cow gives for a week = 1,26,000 ml.

Question 3.
A box contains 20 kg 280 g of sugar. After transferring into a smaller box of 2 kg 720 g 7 times find the remaining sugar left in the big box in cg.
Solution:
Total sugar in the box = 20 kg 280 g.
Measurement of smaller box = 2 kg 720 g.
7 times the smaller box = 2 kg 720 g × 7 = 19 kg 040 g.
Remaining sugar = 20 kg 280 g – 19 kg 40 g = 1 kg 240 g = 1240 g. = 1240 × 100 cg = 124000 eg.
Sugar left in the box = 1,24,000 eg.

Question 4.
Sneha needs 1 m 20 cm of cloth for her blouse. If she bought 20 such cloths find the total cloth she bought in cm?
Solution:
For one blouse the cloth needed = 1 m 20 cm
Cloth needed for 20 blouse = 1 m 20 cm × 20
= 20 m 400 cm
= 20 × 100 + 400 cm
= 2000 + 400 cm
= 2400 cm.
Total cloth bought = 2400 cm.

Question 5.
Can you add 2 m 20 cm and 4 kg 80 g? Why?
Solution:
No, we can’t. To add or subtract, the measures should be in the same unit.

Question 6.
If you serve a cup of coffee measuring 150 ml each for 200 people find the volume of coffee needed in litres?
Solution:
For one cup of coffee it needs 150 ml.
For 200 people it needs 150 × 200 ml = 30000 ml = 30000 × \(\frac{1}{1000}\) l = 30 l
Coffee needed = 30 l.

Question 7.
A lorry full of fertiliser is bought to the garden having 120 coconut trees. If the lorry contain 1920 kg, then find the measure of fertiliser each coconut tree can have?

(ii) 7 kg 250 g = 7250 g. = 7250 × 1000 mg = 72,50,000 mg.
(iii) 7 kg 250 g = 7250 g. = 7250 × 100 cg = 7,25,000 cg.

Question 9.
Convert 20 m 20 cm into cm, m and km.
Solution:
20 m 20 cm.
(i) 20 m 20 cm = 20 × 100 + 20 cm = 2000 + 20 cm = 2020 cm
(ii) 20 m 20 cm = 2020 cm = 2020 × \(\frac{1}{100}\) m = 20.20 m
(iii) 20 m 20 cm = 20.20 m = 20.20 × \(\frac{1}{1000}\) km = 0.02020 km

Question 10.
Convert 85 l 720 ml into ml, l and kl?
Solution:
85 l 720 ml
(i) 85 l 720 ml = 85 × 1000 + 720 ml = 85000 + 720 ml = 85,720
(ii) 85 l 720 ml = 85 l + 720 × \(\frac{1}{1000}\) l = 85 l + 0.720 l = 85.72 l.
(iii) 85 l 720 ml = 85.72 l = 85.72 × \(\frac{1}{1000}\) kl = 0.08572 kl.

Question 11.
Which is greater 0.007 g, 0.7 kg or 70 mg?
Solution:
0.007 g = 0.007 × 1000 mg = 7 mg
0.7 kg = 0.7 × 10,00,000 mg = 7,00,000 mg
70 mg = 70 mg
∴ 0.7 kg is greater.

• First separating the positive integers 12, 14, 16, 18 and the negative integers -11,-13,-15,-17,-19,-20.
• Then arranging the positive integers in ascending order we get 12, 14, 16, 18 and negative integers in ascending order as -20, -19, -17, -15, -13, -11 4
• Now the ascending order : -20, -19, -17, -15, -13, -11, 12, 14, 16, 18.

(ii) -28, 6, -5, -40, 8, 0, 12, -1, 4, 22

• Positive integers are 6, 8, 12, 4, 22 Negative integers are -28, -5, -40, -1
• Arranging the positive integers in ascending order we get 4, 6, 8, 12, 22 and the negative integers in ascending order -40, -28, -5, -1
• The number 0 is neither positive nor negative and stand in the middle.
• In ascending order : -40, -28, -5, -1, 0, 4, 6, 8,12, 22

(iii) -100, 10, -1000, 100, 0, -1, 1000, 1, -10

• Separating positive integers 10, 100, 1000, 1 and negative integers -100, -1000, -1, -10.
• Now the positive integers in ascending order 1,10,100,1000 and the negative integers in ascending order. -1000, -100, -10, -1
• Also ‘0’ stand in the middle as its is neither positive nor negative.

Solution:
(i) 14, 27, 15, -14, -9, 0,11, -17

• Separating the positive integers 14, 27, 15, 11 and negative integers -14, -9, -17
• Arranging in descending order we get the positive integers 27,15,14,11 and the negative integers -9, -14, -17.
• ‘0’ is neither positive nor negative and so it stand in middle.
• ∴ The numbers in descending order : 27, 15, 14, 11, 0, -9, -14, -17

(ii) -99, -120, 65, -46, 78, 400, -600

• Separating the positive integers 65, 78, 400 and negative integers -99, -120, -46, -600

Question 1.
If all the three cakes are divided among the total participants of the function what would be each one’s share? Discuss.
Solution:
Total participants of the function = 9
Total number of cakes = 3
∴ Each cake should be divided into 3 equal parts.
∴ Total number of equal parts of cake = 9
∴ Each one’s share may be \(\frac{1}{9}\) of total cakes or \(\frac{1}{3}\) of a cake.

Question 2.
Observe the following and represent the shaded parts as fraction.

Solution:
(i) Total number of equal parts = 8
Shaded Parts = 3
Fraction representing the shaded parts = \(\frac{3}{8}\)

(ii) Total number of equal parts = 15
Shaded parts = 5
∴ Fraction representing the shaded parts = \(\frac{5}{15}\)

(iii) Total number of equal parts = 9
Shaded parts = 3
∴ Fraction representing the shaded parts = \(\frac{3}{9}\)

(iv) Total number of equal parts = 9
Shaded parts = 5
Fraction representing the shaded parts = \(\frac{5}{9}\)

Question 3.
Look at the following beakers, express the quantity of water as fraction and arrange them in ascending order:

Solution:
Quantity of water in the first beaker = 1 full
Quantity of water in the second beaker = \(\frac{1}{4}\)

Solution:
(i) Total number of equal parts = 3
Shaded parts = 2
Fraction representing the shaded portion = \(\frac{2}{3}\)

(ii) Total number of equal parts = 4
Shaded parts = 3
Fraction representing the shaded parts = \(\frac{3}{4}\)

Question 6.
Find the fractions of the shaded and unshaded portions in the following.

Solution:
(a) Total number of equal parts = 8
Shaded parts = 2
∴ Fraction representing shaded parts = \(\frac{2}{8}\)

(b) Total number of equal parts = 8
Unshaded parts = 6
∴ Fraction of unshaded portion = \(\frac{6}{8}\)

Question 1.
Find the 10th term of the Fibonacci sequence
Solution:
We have the Fibonacci sequence 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55,….
The 10th term is 55.

Question 2.
If the 11^th term of the Fibonacci sequence is 89 and 13^th term is 233 then, what is the 12^th term?
Solution:
Given 11^th term of the Fibonacci sequence is 89 and 13^th term of is 233
We know that a number in Fibonacci sequence is got by adding the previous two consecutive numbers.
11^th term + 12^th term = 13^th term
89 +12^th term =233
∴ 12^th term = 233 – 89 = 144
∴ 12^th term in Fibonacci sequence = 144.

Sankari purchased 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) m cloth to stitch a long skirt and 1\(\frac{3}{4}\) m cloth to stitch blouse. If the cost is ₹ 120 per metre then find the cost of cloth purchased by her
Solution:
Cloth to stitch a long skirt = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) m
Cloth to stitch a blouse = 1\(\frac{3}{4}\) m
Total length of the cloth = \(2 \frac{1}{2}+1 \frac{3}{4} m=2+\frac{1}{2}+1+\frac{3}{4}\) m

Cost of cloth purchased by Sankari = ₹ 510
