15. The cross-section of the prism shown below is a square.

What is the name of the prism?

Solution:

Answer: A cuboid OR a square prism.

Explanation
Prisms have a pair parallel congruent polygonal faces and are named by the shape of
their cross-sections. Cross sections can be vertical, horizontal or even slanted.
Cuboids can be of three types.

Type 1: All the faces are rectangles. Both the horizontal and vertical cross-sections are
rectangular.

This cuboid is a rectangular prism because it has a rectangular cross section no matter
how it stands.

Type 2: All faces are squares: A cube is a special case of a cuboid in which all the
faces are squares. Both the horizontal and the vertical cross-sections are squares.

A cube is a square prism because it has a square cross section no matter how it stands.
It should be noted thant not all square prisms are cubes.

Copyright ©2022.Some Rights Reserved. faspassmaths.com 7


Type 3: Four faces are rectangles and two are squares. The horizontal cross section is
rectangular and the vertical cross section is square. If we adhere to the convention of
naming prisms by the shape of their parallel cross sections then this would result in
two possible names - a rectangular prism or a square prism.

To resolve this problem, a rectangular prism is defined as having 6 rectangular faces.


Since this prism has 4 rectangular faces, it does not meet such criteria. In this respect, a
square prism is the preferred name. It is the square cross section that identifies this
prism as a square prism.

To summarise these points, the following diagram is presented.

CUBOIDS

4 rectangular faces 6 square faces


6 rectangular faces
and 2 square faces

Rectangular
Square Prisms
Prisms

It should be emphasized that all cubes are square prisms but not all square prisms are
cubes.

16. Which of the shapes shown below is NOT symmetrical?

Solution:
In the shapes W, X and Z we could draw a line of symmetry, shown dotted. If the figure
is folded along this line, there will be no overlap and hence it is a line of symmetry. Such
a line cannot be drawn in figure Y. Hence, Y is not symmetrical.

Answer: Y

21. Write the following numbers in ascending order.

135.9 319.5 53.91 95.31

Solution:

There are two numbers in the hundreds, 319.5 and 135.9.


319.5 > 135.9 or 135.9 < 319.3
The other two numbers are both less than a hundred and are 95.31 and 53.91.
95.31 > 53.91or 53.91< 95.31
Hence, the numbers in ascending order are 53.91, 95.31, 135.9, 319.5

Answer: 53.91, 95.31, 135.9, 319.5

22. Write the correct number in each shape below to complete the number sentences.

199 ´ 75 = (199 + ) ´ 75 - 75

199 ´ 75 = ´ 75 - 75
Solution:

Consider 199 as the multiplier and 75 as the number to be multiplied (multiplicand).


An easy way to multiply a number by 199 is to multiply the number by 200 and
subtract the number.

So, 199 × 75 = (200 × 75) − (1 × 75)

199 × 75 = (199 + 1) × 75 − (1 × 75)

199 × 75 = (199 + 1) × 75 − 75

Answer: 199 ´ 75 = (199 + 1 ) ´ 75 - 75

199 ´ 75 = 200 ´ 75 - 75

24. Anil’s age is a factor of 48. Seven years ago, his age was a multiple of 5. What is
Anil’s age now?

Solution:

The factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48.


Seven years ago, Anil’s age was a multiple of 5, so Anil is more than 7 years old.
The factors greater than 7 are {8, 12, 16, 24 and 48}.
Seven years ago, Anil’s age could have been:

8 − 7 = 1, 12 − 7 = 5, 16 − 7 = 9, 24 − 7 = 17 𝑎𝑛𝑑 48 − 7 = 41

The only ( factor - 7 ) that is a multiple of 5 is 12. Hence, Anil was 5 years old seven
years ago and is now 5 + 7 = 12 years old.

Answer: 12 years

27. A vendor received a total of $125.00 from the sale of snow cones and ice cream cones.
The cost of a snow cone is $5.00 and the cost of an ice cream cone is $10.00. He sold 7
more snow cones than ice cream cones.

Calculate the total number of snow cones sold.

Solution:
The cost of 7 snow cones = $5 ´ 7
= $35

Hence, an equal number of snow cones and ice creams cost $125 - $35 = $90

The cost of 1 snow cone + cost of 1 ice cream cone = $5 + $10 = $15

Hence, the $90 was earned from selling ($90 ÷ $15) or 6 sets of ice creams and snow
cones

So, the number of ice creams sold = 6


And, the number of snow cones sold = 6 + 7 = 13

Answer: 13 snow cones (the word is spelt sno-cones)

= $7.50

Additional allowance for the three chores = $7.50 ´ 3


= $22.50

Hence, Corey’s total allowance for the week = $60.00 + $22.50


= $82.50

Answer: $82.50

Solution:

Length of the square = 9 ´1


= 9 cm

\Perimeter of the square = ( 9 ´ 4 ) cm


= 36 cm

Length of the rectangle = 10 ´1


= 10 cm

Width of the rectangle = 9 ´1


= 9 cm
\Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (10 + 9)
= 38 cm
Hence, the difference in their perimeters = ( 38 - 36 ) cm
= 2 cm

Answer: 2 cm

31. Small identical cubes are placed inside a cuboid as shown below.

How many more of these cubes are needed to fill the cuboid completely?

Solution:

To complete the length of the cuboid we need 8 cubes.


To complete the width of the cuboid we need 4 cubes.
To complete the height of the cuboid we need 5 cubes.
Hence, to fill the cuboid we need 8 × 5 × 4 = 160 cubes.

The cuboid now has 5 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 5 = 16 cubes.

\To fill the cuboid requires (160 − 16) = 144 more cubes.

Answer: 144 cubes

(The word ‘completely’ is redundant in the question)

32. The time on a clock is correct at 8:00 a.m. The clock loses 5 minutes every hour. What
time would the clock show when the correct time is 3:00 p.m.?

Solution:

The clock loses 5 minutes every hour.


From the correct time of 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., the difference in time is 7 hours.
Hence, the clock is expected to lose 5 ´ 7 = 35 minutes,
So, the clock will show 35 minutes less than the correct time of 3:00 p.m.
The clock will show 3 : 00 - 35 minutes = 2 : 25 p.m.

Answer: 2:25 p.m.

33. On the grid below, label the position of the point B such that the quadrilateral ABCD
has one right angle. Draw lines to form the quadrilateral ABCD.

Solution:

Angle CDA is not a right angle. To form one right angle, we draw a horizontal at A
The angle DAB will be a right angle. At any point on this horizontal line can be the
position of B, except the point vertically above C, since in this special case there would
be two right angles in the quadrilateral.

One such position of B is chosen and for this B, the quadrilateral ABCD is drawn.

35. The mean of four numbers was 80. When one number was removed the mean remained
80.

Explain how this was possible.

Solution;
The mean of four numbers is 80.
Hence, the total of the four numbers = 80 ´ 4
= 320

One number is removed. The new mean is 80.


So, the new total = 80 ´ 3
= 240

Hence, the number removed is 320 - 240 = 80 and which is the same as the original
mean.

We can deduce that if the mean of a set of numbers is N and if N is one of the numbers
and it is removed, then the mean of the remaining numbers will be unchanged.
The following example illustrates this principle.

1st 2nd 3rd 4th Sum Mean


70 90 80 80 320 80
70 90 80 240 80
70 90 160 80

36. A basket with oranges was weighed. The same basket was weighed with bananas.
Finally, the basket was weighed with the oranges and the bananas. The graph below
shows the mass of the items.

What is the mass of the basket?

Solution Alternative Solution

Let the mass of the basket be B kg. Basket + oranges + bananas weigh = 6 kg
Let the mass of oranges be R kg.
Let the mass of bananas be N kg. Basket + bananas weigh = 4 kg

So B + R = 4 kg Therefore, oranges weigh = (6– 4) kg


B + N = 3 kg = 2 kg
B + R + N = 6 kg Basket + Oranges weigh = 3 kg
B+ B+ R+ N = 4+3
= 7 kg Therefore, the basket weighs = (3–2) kg
\B = 7 -6 = 1 kg
= 1kg

Answer: 1 kg

3 4
shared the remaining pens between Alison and Yvette such that Alison received 9
more pens than Yvette.

How many pens did Alison receive?

Solution:

Indira has 90 pens.


1
Indira keeps ( 90 ) = 30 pens
3

Remainder = 90 - 30
= 60 pens

1
of 60 is given to Keone = 15 pens
4

Remainder is now 60 - 15 = 45 pens.

Alison and Yvette share 45 pens.


Alison receives 9 pens more than Yvette.

Yvette’s share Yvette


45 pens
Alison’s share Yvette 9

Twice Yvette’s share + 9 = 45


Twice Yvette’s share = 45 – 9 =36
Yvette’s share = 36 ÷ 2 = 18

\Yvette receives = 18 pens.

\Alison receives 18 + 9 = 27 pens.

Answer: 27 pens
