To judge the knowledge of students on topic"Number System" the teacher asked the students about
the laws of exponents they have studied in previous classes. Further he wrote the laws of exponents
on blackboard and asked students to answer the following questions using these laws: (1+1+2)
 Rules of Exponents or Laws of Fyonents
Multiplication Rule t

Division Rule

37. Case Study -2
Sukaran planned a birthday party to celebrate in an orphanage center. He bought
chocolates
to give children and adults working there. Sukaran donated 2
chocolates to each child and 3
chocolates to each adult working there along with the piece of birthday cake. He distributed
total 60 chocolates.
(1+1+2)
Based on above information, answer the following
questions:

"Learning by doing" has great impact in teaching of maths. Students also enjoy Mathematics by
activity method. Mr. Paul, a mathematics teacher has explained the topicof Lines and Angles by
taking a very thin steel wire. He used wire and made some shapes at some specific angles and
shown to the students and asked questions.
