- In how many jumps does he reach 25? ____________
- He reaches ____________ after taking 8 jumps. • He needs ____________ jumps to reach 55.
Ans: Here,
- Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 3 steps =1=1
Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 27 steps = 27÷3=927÷3=9
So, he has taken 27÷3=927÷3=9 jumps.
- Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 3 steps =1=1
Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 36 steps =36÷12=3=36÷12=3
He has taken 12 jumps, if he is at 36.
- Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 3 steps =1=1
Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 42 steps =42÷3=14=42÷3=14
If he is at 42, he has taken 14 jumps.
- Number of jumps taken by the rabbit to cover 5 steps =1=1
Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 25 steps =25÷5=5=25÷5=5
Thus, the rabbit will reach 25 in 5 jumps.
- Number of steps covered in 1 jump = 5
Number of steps covered in 8 jumps =5×8=40=5×8=40
He reaches 40 after taking 8 jumps.
- Number of jumps taken by the rabbit to cover 5 steps =1=1
Number of jumps taken by the frog to cover 55 steps =55÷5=11=55÷5=11
He needs 11 jumps to reach 55.

Dhruv took 28 more shells for making the third necklace.Number of shells left with
Dhruv after making third necklace =56−28=28=56−28=28
Dhruv made a necklace of 28 shells for each of his three friends.
After making the necklaces for his friends, he was left with 28 shells.
So, he could make one more necklace with the remaining shells. Thus, Dhruv could
make a total of 4 necklaces with 112 shells.
Yes, the number of shells were enough for making necklaces for all the friends. After
making 3 necklaces for his friends, 28 shells were still left with Dhruv.
11. Kannu made a necklace of 17 sea-shells. How many such necklaces can be made using 100 sea shells?
Ans: Total number of shells =100=100

NCERT Solutions for Class 4 Maths Chapter 11 Tables And Shares
If you want to arrange things in order then we can do it based on the concept of multiplication. Instead of repeating the addition of a number, we multiply the numbers. When we want to share something then we need to make equal parts that mean that we need to divide. Multiplication is the opposite of division.
Before we learn multiplication and division, we need to know the multiplication tables from 1 to 10.
We know the multiplication: 4 x 2 = 8. Here, 4 and 2 are called the factors of 8. 8 is called the multiple.
Let Us Understand Some Properties of Multiplication.
- When we multiply two numbers, the order of the numbers in which we multiply them does not matter. The product is the same. Ex: 9 x 7 = 63 or 7 x 9 = 63
- The product of a number when multiplied by 0 is 0.
Example: 8 x 0 = 0; 0 x 0 = 0
- The product of a number multiplied by 1 is always the number itself.
Example: 2 x 1 = 2; 1 x 2 = 2; 1 x 1 = 1
- When three numbers are multiplied, then the order of the numbers doesn’t matter. The result is always the same.
Example: 4 x 3 x 5 = 5 x 3 x 4
Division means repeated subtraction. If something is divided into equal groups, you can use a division method in order to find how many things are there in each group.
Example: If you have 12 sweets and you want to give 4 sweets to each friend. How many friends will get the sweets?
Solution:
There are 12 sweets.
Give four sweets to one friend. So you have 12 – 4 = 8 sweets left.
Give four sweets to another friend. You have 8 – 4 = 4 sweets left.
Give four sweets to another friend. You have 4 – 4 = 0 sweets left.
How many friends get the sweets? ______________.
Therefore, 12 put into equal groups of 4 each gives 3 groups
12 divided by 4 equals 3
12 ÷ 4 = 3
So what did we do in the above example? We repeatedly subtracted 4 from 12 till no sweets were left.
4 can be repeatedly subtracted from 12 three times.
The number to be divided is called a dividend. The number by which we divide is called the divisor. The result we get is called the quotient.
Properties of Division
- When we divide a number by 1 we get the same number as the quotient.
- When a number is divided by itself we get 1 as the quotient.
- When 0 is divided by any number we get 0.
Multiplication and Division
When we divide the multiple by one of the factors we get the other factor as the result.
Example: There are 3 boxes and 4 balls in each group.
(Image to be added soon) (Image to be added soon) (Image to be added soon)
Therefore, number of balls = 3 x 4 = 12
Multiplication means putting equal groups together.
Now, there are 12 balls.
(Image to be added soon)
Let us divide them into 3 equal groups.
(Image to be added soon) (Image to be added soon) (Image to be added soon)
There are 4 balls in each group.
Therefore, 12 ÷ 3 = 4
Division means splitting into equal groups
Hence, we see that multiplication and division are the opposite of each other.
We can also divide 12 balls into 4 groups of 3 each.
That is, 12 ÷ 4 = 3
Therefore, for one multiplication fact: 3 x 4 = 12
We can write two division facts: 12 ÷ 3 = 4 and 12 ÷ 4 = 3
