Students of class 5, told the fruit of their choice to their teacher which was served on every Monday in the mid-day meal as following-

Question 1. Count check marks and fill the table.
(i) How many students have given their choice for fruits?
(ii) Which fruit is preferred most by students?
(iii) Which fruit is preferred least by students?

Answer:
(i) To find the total number of students who chose fruits, we add up the counts for each fruit. So, \( 10 + 5 + 3 + 8 = 26 \) students.
(ii) The fruit liked by most students is Banana, with 10 students choosing it. Banana is a popular and healthy choice for many.
(iii) The fruit liked by the least number of students is Sapodilla, with only 3 students choosing it.
In simple words: First, add all the numbers from the "How many would like" column to get the total students. Then, find the biggest number for the most liked fruit, and the smallest number for the least liked fruit.

🎯 Exam Tip: When working with tally charts, always double-check your addition to ensure the total count is accurate. Make sure to identify both the highest and lowest values correctly.

See the table and tell -

Question 2.
(i) How many motor cycles crossed from Neha's house between 5 to 6 in the evening?
(ii) During this time, how many vehicles crossed from Neha's house ?
(iii) Which vehicle has crossed the least? Name it.

Answer:
(i) From the tally chart, we can see that 14 motorcycles crossed from Neha's house between 5 to 6 in the evening. This indicates a busy hour for two-wheelers.
(ii) To find the total number of vehicles that crossed, we sum up all the counts: \( 14 \text{ (motorcycles)} + 7 \text{ (jeeps)} + 3 \text{ (buses)} + 11 \text{ (cars)} = 35 \) vehicles. This gives us the overall traffic count.
(iii) The vehicle that crossed the least number of times is the Bus, with only 3 buses counted. Buses might be less common on that route or at that specific time.
In simple words: Look at the table for each answer. For part (ii), add all the numbers in the "No." column to get the total. For part (iii), find the smallest number and its matching vehicle.

🎯 Exam Tip: Always read the question carefully to identify what specific information is being asked for. For totals, make sure to add all relevant categories.

Question 3. In your class, which game is preferred by most of the students? Find out with the help of the table and tally marks.

Here, the answer is given assuming the number of students in class-5 is 40.

Answer: From the table, we can see that Kho-Kho has the highest number of students, with 15 students preferring it. This makes Kho-Kho the most liked game in this class. Team games like Kho-Kho often build good friendships.
In simple words: Look at the "Number of students" column in the table. The game with the largest number is the most preferred. In this case, it's Kho-Kho.

🎯 Exam Tip: To find the most preferred item, always look for the largest number in the frequency column. Remember to state both the item and its frequency.

In this question, let total number of students be 40.

Question 4.
(i) How many students do not have any brother or sister?
(ii) How many students have 1 brother or sister?
(iii) What is the number of brother/sisters having maximum number of tally marks in front of them?
(iv) How many students have 3 or more than 3 brothers/sisters?

Answer:
(i) From the completed table, 7 students do not have any brother or sister. This means they are only children.
(ii) There are 6 students who have exactly 1 brother or sister. Having a single sibling is a common family structure.
(iii) The category "2 Brother/Sister" has the maximum number of tally marks (20). This indicates that most students in the class have two siblings.
(iv) There are 7 students who have 3 or more than 3 brothers/sisters. This group includes students from larger families.
In simple words: Read each question and find the matching row in the table. The "Number" column tells you the answer. For part (iii), find the biggest number in the "Number" column and see how many siblings that row represents.

🎯 Exam Tip: Carefully cross-reference each sub-question with the correct row in the tally table. Pay attention to exact wording like "1 brother or sister" versus "3 or more than 3 brothers/sisters".

Question 1. In the following table, the attendance of students in Rajkiya Prathmik Vidyalaya, Uprifala on Monday is shown by pictograph and tally mark.

From the above table, it is clear that the total number of present students in Class-I is 22. Because a full face symbol represents 10 students, and a partial symbol (like 2 lines) represents 2 students, so 2 full faces and 2 lines (20+2) would represent 22 students.

Question 5.
(i) Similarly, find out the attendance of Class II, III, IV and V from the table.
(ii) In which class, the maximum number of students are present?

Answer:
(i) According to the table:
Total number of present students in Class II \( = 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 = 26 \)
Total number of present students in Class III \( = 10 + 10 + 10 = 30 \)
Total number of present students in Class IV \( = 10 + 10 + 10 + 3 = 33 \)
Total number of present students in Class V \( = 10 + 5 + 2 = 17 \)
(ii) In Class IV, the maximum number of students (33) are present on Monday. This class has the highest attendance for the day, which might mean their activities are particularly engaging.
In simple words: For part (i), look at the pictograms for each class and add up the numbers they represent (each full face is 10, half face is 5, and each line is 1). For part (ii), compare all the total numbers you found and pick the biggest one to see which class had the most students.

🎯 Exam Tip: Always understand the key of the pictograph before counting. Ensure you add up the values for each class accurately and then compare them to find the maximum.
