This is a comprehensive educational resource designed to provide students with the tools and guidance necessary to excel. This support system is structured to cater to various aspects of learning, ensuring that students are well-prepared for academic challenges and practical applications of mathematical concepts. Some are the key benefits are mentioned below:

Comprehensive Learning: This holistic approach helps students gain a thorough understanding of the subject. Practical Application: The resources encourage students to apply mathematical concepts to real-life scenarios, enhancing their practical understanding and problem-solving skills.

Critical Thinking and Reasoning: Value-Based and HOTS questions promote critical thinking and reasoning abilities. These skills are crucial for students to tackle complex problems and make informed decisions.

Exam Preparedness: Sample Question Papers and Practice Questions Solutions provide ample practice for exams. They help students familiarize themselves with the exam format and types of questions, reducing exam anxiety.

Ethical and Moral Development: Value-Based Questions integrate ethical and moral lessons into the learning process, helping in the overall development of students' character and social responsibility. By incorporating these diverse elements, Enhanced Curriculum Support aims to provide a robust and well-rounded knowledge, preparing students for both academic success and real-world challenges.

Q1

We can count the number of children in our school; we can also count the number of people in a city; we can count the number of people in India. The number of people in the whole world can also be counted. We may not be able to count the number of stars in the sky or the number of hair on our heads but if we are able, there would be a number for them also. We can then add one more to such a number and get a larger number. In that case we can even write the number of hair on two heads taken together. It is now perhaps obvious that there is no largest number. Apart from these questions shared above, there are many others that can come to our mind when we work with Whole Numbers.

(i) Write the predecessor and successor of 2023.

(ii) Is there any natural number that has no predecessor? If yes, then write that number.

(iii) How many whole numbers are there between 34 and 43?

Sol 1

Solutions:

(i) The predecessor of 2023 is 2022 and the successor of 2023 2024

(ii) Yes, there is a natural number that has no predecessor, which is 1

(iii) The whole no. between 34 and 44 are 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42 and 43

or total numbers between 34 and 44 =(largest number-smallest number)-1

= (44-34)-1=9
