Example context: Shabnam is 3 years older than Aftab. When Aftab’s age is 18 years, what will Shabnam’s age be?
20 years
21 years
22 years
24 years
Given Aftab’s age, how will you find out Shabnam’s age?
Add 3 to Aftab’s age
Subtract 3 from Aftab’s age
Multiply Aftab’s age by 3
Divide Aftab’s age by 3
Can we write the relation as an expression? Shabnam’s age is 3 years more than Aftab’s. Choose the correct expression for this relation.
s=a+3
s=a−3
s=3a
s=3a
If a is 23 (Aftab’s age in years), then what is Shabnam’s age?
23 years
25 years
26 years
30 years
Let a denote Aftab’s age and s denote Shabnam’s age. Aftab is 3 years younger than Shabnam. Which expression gives Aftab’s age?
a=s−3
a=s+3
a=3s
a=3s
Use the expression for Aftab’s age when he is 3 years younger than Shabnam to find Aftab’s age if Shabnam’s age is 20.

What is the relation between the number of Ls and the number of matchsticks when each L uses two matchsticks?
Number of matchsticks = 2 × number of Ls
Number of matchsticks = number of Ls ÷ 2
Number of matchsticks = number of Ls + 2
Number of matchsticks = 3 × number of Ls

A shop rents out chairs and tables for a day. The amount to pay per piece at the beginning is ₹40 for a chair and ₹75 for a table. When the furniture is returned, the shopkeeper pays back ₹6 per chair and ₹10 per table. Write the expression for the total rupees finally paid if x chairs and y tables are rented.

A shop rents out chairs and tables for a day. The customer pays ₹40 per chair and ₹75 per table at the beginning, and on returning, gets back ₹6 per chair and ₹10 per table. Which procedure correctly finds the total rupees finally paid for x chairs and y tables?
Find the amount paid at the beginning and the amount returned, then subtract the returned amount from the amount paid at the beginning.
Add the amount paid at the beginning to the returned amount.
Subtract the amount paid at the beginning from the returned amount.
Add both amounts and divide by two.
Given the expression for the total amount finally paid is 40x + 75y − (6x + 10y) for renting x chairs and y tables (₹40 per chair, ₹75 per table, with ₹6 and ₹10 returned per chair and table respectively), can this expression be simplified, and if yes, how?
Yes, it simplifies to 34x+65y by combining like terms.
No, it cannot be simplified because the terms are unlike.
Yes, it simplifies to 46x+85y by adding coefficients.
Yes, it simplifies to 34x+75y by subtracting only the chair return.
Could we have written the initial expression as (40x+75y)+(−6x−10y) instead of (40x+75y)−(6x+10y) ?
Yes
No

Somjit noticed a repeating pattern along the border of a saree.
A repeating decorative motif appears along the saree’s border.
A single large design is printed once at the centre.
No designs appear anywhere on the saree.
Only stripes are present without any motifs.
Somjit wonders if there is a way to describe all the positions where the designs occur along the border: (i) Design A, (ii) Design B, and (iii) Design C.
He seeks expressions that describe the positions of Designs A, B, and C along the border.
He wants to count how many colours were used in each design.
He plans to measure the length of the saree without considering the motifs.
He intends to rename the designs without tracking their positions.

In the endless calendar grid shown (rows continue beyond 30), consider any marked 2×2 square like the one with 12, 13, 19, and 20. Are the sums of the two diagonals equal in every 2×2 square of this grid?
Yes, the diagonal sums are always equal in every 2×2 square.
No, they are never equal.
Only squares that include weekend dates have equal diagonal sums.
They are equal only within November 2024 but not in the extended rows.
Let the top-left number of a 2×2 square in this calendar grid be a . The grid increases by 1 to the right and by 7 downward. Which set correctly gives the other three entries of the square (top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right)?
a+1, a+7, a+8
a+7, a+1, a+8
a+1, a+6, a+7
a+2, a+7, a+9
Which reasoning guarantees that the diagonal sums are equal for any 2×2 square in this calendar grid?
Let the entries be a, a+1, a+7, a+8 ; the diagonal sums are (a+a+8) and (a+1+a+7) , both equal to 2a+8 .
Check many examples by hand until convinced; some will match and that is sufficient.
Use a calculator on the first five weeks only; extended rows may differ.
Assume all diagonals are equal because calendars are symmetrical by design.

The visible example shows 8 above, 22 below, 14 to the left, 16 to the right, and 15 in the centre. What is the sum of these five numbers?
75
70
73
80
For any such plus-shaped selection on a calendar, what relationship holds between the total sum of the five numbers and the centre number?
The sum is 5 times the centre number.
The sum is 4 times the centre number.
The sum equals the centre number plus 30 .
The sum is twice the centre number.
Take the centre number of the plus-shaped calendar selection to be a. Which expressions correctly represent the five numbers in the shape? Select all that apply.

Look at the picture of matchstick triangles for Steps 1 to 4, where each new figure adds one triangle to the row. What is the pattern shown?
The number of triangles increases by one at each step
The number of squares increases by one at each step

According to the table of matchstick counts (3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 for Steps 1–6), what is the general rule for how the number of matchsticks changes from one step to the next?
It increases by 2 each step
It increases by 3 each step
It doubles each step
It stays the same each step
Using the matchstick pattern described: in Step 10, the number of matchsticks is given by 3 + 2 × 9, and in Step 11 by 3 + 2 × 10. For Step y, which expression gives the number of matchsticks?
3+2×(y−1)
3+2y
2y−1
y2+3
Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the expressions 3+2×(y−1) and 2y+1 for the number of matchsticks at Step y?
They are equivalent for all values of y.
They are different and give different totals.
3+2×(y−1) works only for even values of y.
2y+1 works only for y greater than 10.
