Ordinal Numbers

1) Answer the Following Questions.

a) 7 People Are Standing in a Queue to Go in the Lift. But the Capacity of the Elevator Is 4 People. Can They Go Inside the Elevator Altogether? If Not, How Can They Go?

b) There Were 3 People in the Lift on the 9th Floor. 1 Person Went Out of the Lift on the 7th Floor. On the 6th Floor, 2 People Entered the Lift. On The 5th Floor, 2 People Went Out of The Lift. The Remaining People Went Out on The Ground Floor. After That, How Many People Went Out on The Ground Floor? Also, Complete the Following Blanks.

      a. Number of people standing in a queue = 7
          Capacity of elevator = 4 people
          That means up to 4 people can go together by elevator.
           All people can’t go inside the elevator altogether.
          So, People can go either one of the following ways:

       b. If people were going out from the lift, make a subtraction and if
           people entered the lift, make an addition.
           By the given information, the correct answer is:

After 2 people leave the lift on the ground floor, the lift will be empty.

 
2) Solve the Following Questions.

 

If the lift is going upward, make the addition. If the lift is going downward, make the subtraction.

    a. A boy is on the 5th floor; he goes 3 floors upward. He reaches at: 5 + 3 = 8th floor

       b. A girl is on the 8th floor. She goes 5 floors downward.
           She reaches 8 – 5 = 3rd floor.

       c. A girl is on the ground floor; she goes 11 floors upward.
           She reaches 0 + 11 = 11th floor
           (A ground floor is considered as the 0th floor.)

      d. A girl is on the 3rd floor; she goes 3 floors downward.
          She reaches 3 – 3 = 0th floor.
          The ground floor is considered the 0th floor.
