DONE BY ALAN ANAND OF CLASS 5.1
These are the four word problems that are in page 81 of your 5A Textbook. Even if you don’t answer
as a comment means that you know.
1. Lisa had 4/5 bars of chocolate. Her brother, Timmy ate 7/8 of it when she wasn’t looking.

Cabbage stole 11/5 of it when Mr Bean was busy playing Miniclip Games. How much
popcorn did Mrs Cabbage steal?
4. One fine day, there was a shipping of explosives. In the ship, ¾ of the weight of the ship was
made up of gunpowder. Another 1/8 of the weight of the ship was made up of plutonium
(the stuff used to make nuclear missiles) and 2/8 of the ships weight was made up of the
ship itself. The ship, without the explosives weighs 1/8 which is also equal to 250kg. How
much does the plutonium weigh?
I know it is very funny, but if your funny bones are tickled to the limit, you will find out that it is the
