Exercise 1(A)
1. Evaluate:
(a) 427 × 8 + 2 × 427
(b) 394 × 12 + 394 × (-2)
(c) 558 × 27 + 3 × 558
Answer
(a) 427 × 8 + 2 × 427
= 427 × (8 + 2) (Distributive property)
= 427 × 10
= 4270
(b) 394 × 12 + 394 × (-2)
= 394 × (12-2) (Distributive property)
= 394 × 10
= 3940
(c) 558 × 27 + 3 × 558
= 558 × (27 + 3) (Distributive property)
= 558× 30
= 16740
2. Evaluate:
(a) 673 × 9 + 673
(b) 1925 × 101 – 1925
Answer
(a) 673 × 9 + 673
= 673 × (9 + 1) (Distributive property)
= 673 × 10
= 6730
(b) 1925 × 101 – 1925
= 1925 × (101 – 1) (Distributive property)
= 1925 × 100

3. Verify:
(a) 37 × {8 +(-3)} = 37 × 8 + 37 × – (3)
(b) (-82) × {(-4) + 19} = (-82) × (-4) + (-82) × 19
(c) {7 – (-7)} × 7 = 7× 7 – (-7) × 7
(d) {(-15) – 8} × -6 = (-15) × (-6) – 8 × (-6)
Answer
(a) 37 × {8 + (-3)} = 37 × 8 + 37 × – (3)
L.H.S. = 37 × {8 + (-3)}
= 37 × {8-3}
= 37 × {5}
= 37 × 5
= 185
R.H.S. = 37 × 8 + 37 – 3
= 37 × (8 – 3)
= 37 × 5
= 185
Hence, L.H.S. = R.H.S.
(b) (-82) x {(-4) + 19} = (-82) × (-4) + (-82) × 19
L.H.S. = (-82) × {(_4) + 19}
= (-82) × {-4 + 19}
= (-82) × {15}
= -82 × 15
=-1230
R.H.S. = (-82) × (-4) + (-82) × 19
= -82 × (-4 + 19)
= -82 × 15
=-1230
Hence, L.H.S. = R.H.S.
(c) {7 – (-7)}. × 7 = 7 × 7 – (-1) × 7
L.H.S. = {7 – (-7)} × 7
= {7 + 7} × 7
= {14}× 7
= 14 × 7
= 98
R.H.S. = 7 × 7 – (-7) × 7
=7 × 7+7 × 7 =
7 × (7 + 7)
= 7 × (14)
= 98
Hence, L.H.S. = R.H.S.
(d) {(-15) – 8} × -6 = (-15) × (-6) – 8 × (-6)
L.H.S. = {(-15)-8} × -6
= {-15-8} × -6
= {-23} × -6
= -23 × - 6
= 138
R.H.S. = (-15) × (-6) – 8 × (-6)
= -6 × (-15-8)
= -6 × -23
= 138
Hence, L.H.S. = R.H.S.
4. Evaluate:

Hence, integer is 0
8. Eighteen integers are multiplied together. What will be the sign of their product, if:
(i) 15 of them are negative and 3 are positive?
(ii) 12 of them are negative and 6 are positive?
(iii) 9 of them are positive and the remaining are negative?
(iv) all are negative?
Answer
(i) Since out of eighteen integers, 15 of them are negative, which is odd number. Hence, sign of product will be negative (-).
(ii) Since out of eighteen integers 12 of them are negative, which is even number. Hence sign of product will be positive (+).
(iii) Since out of eighteen integers 9 of them are negative, which is odd number. Hence, sign of product will be negative (-).
(iv) Since all are negative, which is even number. Hence sign of product will be positive (+).
9. Find which is greater?

(ii) 12 × (6 – 8) or 12 × 6 – 8
(iii) {(-3) – 4} × (-5) or (-3) – 4 × (-5)
Answer
(i) (8 + 10) × 15 or 8 + 10 × 15
⇒ (8 + 10) × 15 = 18 × 15 = 270
⇒ 8 + 10 × 15 = 8 + 150 = 158
∴ (8 + 10) × 15 > 8 + 10 × 15
(ii) 12 × (6 – 8) or 12 × 6 – 8
12 × (6 – 8) = 12 (-2) = -24
12 × 6 – 8 = 72 – 8 = 64
∴12 × 6 – 8 > 12 × (6-8)
(iii) {(-3) – 4} × (-5) or (-3) – 4 × (-5)
{(-3) – 4} × (-5) = {-3 – 4} × (-5) = -7 × -5 = 35
(-3) – 4 × (-5) = -7 × (-5) = 35
∴{(-3) – 4} × (-5) = (-3) – 4 × (-5)

ab + ac ≠ ab + c
(iv) False.
Correct: (b – c) x a ≠ b – c x a
ab – ac ≠ b – ca
