5. A taxidriver filled his car petrol tank with 40 litres of petrol on Monday. The next day, he filled the tank with 50 litres of petrol. If the petrol costs Rs 44 per litre, how much did he spend in all on petrol?

Solution:  Taxi driver filled his car petrol tank on Monday = 40 L

 He filled the petrol tank on Tuesday = 50 L

 The petrol costs per liter = 44 Rs

 He spend in all on petrol = (40 + 50) x 44

                           = 90 x 44

                           = 3960 Rs

Q2. If the product of two whole numbers is zero, can we say that one or both of them will be zero? Justify through examples.

Solution: 

Yes, we know that the product of any whole numbers with zero is always zero.

Q3. If the product of two whole numbers is 1, can we say that one or both of them will be 1? Justify through examples.

Solution: 

If only one number be 1 then the product cannot be 1.

Examples:

Here we see that one of two is 1 then product will be always second number. 

If both numbers are 1, then the product is 1
