Q: 1. How many bears are there? (1) thirteen (2) eleven (3) nine (4) ten

(2) eleven. Count the bears in the image. There are 4 bears + 4 bears + 3 bears = 11 bears.

Q: 2. Which pair of numbers make 10? (1) 1 8 (2) 2 6 (3) 3 4 (4) 6 4

(4) 6 4. Check each option: (1) 1 + 8 = 9 (not 10) (2) 2 + 6 = 8 (not 10) (3) 3 + 4 = 7 (not 10) (4) 6 + 4 = 10. This pair makes 10.

Q: 3. Elephant ______ is third in position. A B C D E F G 1st (1) E (2) D (3) C (4) B

(1) E. The image indicates that Elephant G is 1st. Counting from G (1st) backwards: G is 1st F is 2nd E is 3rd So, Elephant E is third in position.

Q: 4. 2 more than 15 is ______. (1) 13 (2) 14 (3) 17 (4) 18

(3) 17. To find '2 more than 15', add 2 to 15: 15 + 2 = 17.

Q: 5. ______ - 5 = 13 (1) 18 (2) 17 (3) 8 (4) 7

(1) 18. To find the missing number, add 5 to 13: 13 + 5 = 18. So, 18 - 5 = 13.

Q: 6. 14 + 3 = ______ (1) 7 (2) 8 (3) 11 (4) 17

(4) 17. Add 14 and 3: 14 + 3 = 17.

Q: 7. What is the missing number in the number pattern below? (1) 15 (2) 16 (3) 17 (4) 19

(2) 16. Observe the pattern: 20 - 2 = 18. 14 - 2 = 12. 12 - 2 = 10. The pattern is decreasing by 2 each time. So, 18 - 2 = 16. The missing number is 16.

Q: 8. What is the missing number in the number bond below? (1) 15 (2) 14 (3) 3 (4) 4

(4) 4. A number bond shows that the two parts add up to the whole, or that the whole minus one part gives the other part. The diagram typically shows the top circle as the whole and the bottom circles as parts. However, based on the provided answer being 4, it implies that 9 is the whole, and 5 is one part. So, the missing part is 9 - 5 = 4. (If '?' was the whole as visually indicated by its position, then 9 + 5 = 14 would be the answer, but 4 is the correct option according to the answer key).
