Exercise (2.1)

1. Write the Next Three Natural Numbers After

10999.

Ans:

Natural numbers are those numbers which start from positive integers and go on till infinity.

To find the next three natural numbers, just add

1 to every preceding integer.

So,

10,999+1=11,000

11,000+1=11,001

11,001+1=11,002

Thus the three natural numbers after

10,999 are

11000,11001,11002 .


2. Write the Three Whole Numbers Occurring Just Before

10001 .

Ans:

Whole numbers are those numbers which start from zero and go on till infinity.

To find the three whole numbers occurring before the number, just subtract

1 from every preceding integer.

So,

10,001−1=10,000

10,000−1=9,999

9,999−1=9,998

Thus the three whole numbers occurring before

10,001 are

10000,9999,9998 .


3. Which is the Smallest Whole Number?

Ans:

Whole numbers are those numbers which start from zero and go on till infinity.

Since the whole numbers start with zero, the smallest whole number is zero.

So

0 is the smallest number.


4. How Many Whole Numbers are There Between

32 and 53 ?

Ans:

To find the number of whole numbers between two numbers, we have to list out the numbers between

32 and 53 .

The numbers are

33,34,35,...,52 .

Numbers between

53 and

32=(53−32)−1                                  

=20

So there are

20 whole numbers between

32 and 53 .

504=(500+4)

(500+4)×35

So we can use distributive property over addition, that is,

a(b+c)=ab+ac

(500+4)×35=500×35+4×35

=17500+140

=17640

So the value of

504×35 is

17640.


5.Study the pattern:        

1×8+1=9

12×8+2=98

123×8+3=987

1234×8+4=9876

12345×8+5=98765

Ans:

Since it was like

12...n×8+n=n...1

The next two terms are

123456×8+6=987654                       

1234567×8+7=9876543

And the pattern will be like:

1×8+1=9

12×8+2=98

123×8+3=987

1234×8+4=9876

12345×8+5=98765

The next two terms are

987654,9876543.

So the student should be aware of all the terms because several students may lose their marks without knowing the terms even though they knew the concept very well.


2.2 Whole Numbers

After attaining the knowledge of the successor and predecessor, the students may get a doubt, what is the predecessor of one. So, in order to clarify this, Aryabhatta discovered the numeral called zero. All the natural numbers, including zero, are nothing but Whole Numbers. NCERT Solutions of the Maths book of Chapter 2 has explained it in detail. So we can say that the national numbers are a subset of Whole Numbers.


2.3 Number Line

The NCERT solutions of Class 6 Maths Chapter 2 Whole Numbers PDF has introduced A New concept to the students, which is called the number line. Students can understand it as simple as the numbers because it is representing the numbers on your straight line. The number line can be used to represent additions, subtractions, and multiplications too. The experience of teachers of NCERT solutions has been verified thoroughly and explained the concept with several examples. Also, students can assess themselves by using the exercises and practice questions.


2.4 Properties of Whole Numbers

As of now, the students got knowledge of ‘what are the Whole Numbers?’. So the NCERT Solutions of Vedantu wants to give more on each topic. For that purpose, students are about to learn about the properties of Whole Numbers. The Whole Numbers may satisfy different properties. They are as follows:

  • Closure Property: The Whole Numbers can hold the closure property for both the addition and multiplication.

  • Associative Property: The Whole Numbers also satisfy the associated property for both the addition and multiplication.

  • Distributive of Multiplication Over Addition: It means that the Whole Numbers can satisfy the distributivity of multiplication only on additions but not on multiplications.


2.5 Patterns in Whole Numbers

NCERT Solutions of Chapter 2 Mathematics Class 6 taught the students in an understandable way about the patterns available in the Whole Numbers. The pattern means the way of representing or the appearance of that particular number. Students can learn it very enthusiastically. Because here the numbers can appear in different shapes like a straight line, square, rectangle, or a triangle or any other. So the students can enjoy more and more numbers to represent their favourite shapes.

FAQs on NCERT Solutions for Class 6 Maths Chapter 2 - Whole Numbers

1. Explain the Closure Property on Addition and Multiplication with an example.

The closure property of addition and multiplication states that when you add or multiply any two numbers from a set, the result will also be a number from the same set.


For example, if you add two whole numbers, the result will always be a whole number. Similarly, if you multiply two whole numbers, the result will always be a whole number.

For addition, a + b = b + a

3000 + 5000 = 8000

5000 + 3000 = 8000

For multiplication,  a x b = b x a

25 x 50 = 1250

50 x 25 = 1250 

2. Explain the Associative Property on Addition and Multiplication with an example.

The Whole Numbers can satisfy the associated property on both additions and multiplications similar to the closure property. Let's see an example of this.

For addition, a+(b+c) = (a+b)+c

 2+ (4+6) = (2+4)+6 = 12

For multiplication, a x (b x c )= (a x b) x c

2 x (4 x 6) = (2 x 4) x 6 = 48

3. What are the properties available in Mathematics for numbers?

Generally, we have six properties for the numbers. However, there will not be any compulsion that all members should satisfy all the properties. Some of the properties were satisfied and some may not. The basic properties available are -

  • Closure property

  • Associative property

  • Commutative property

  • Distributive property

  • Identity property

  • Inverse property etc.
