CLASS VII
ASSIGNMENT FOR SUMMER BREAK-MATHEMATICS
Hello children. Vacations are round the corner and we are all geared up for the fun and
frolic, visits to grandparents and other destinations. The excitement is in the air. Just to
keep you all a little connected to academics during the break, we have designed a few
questions in Mathematics, which you can very easily fit into your routine.
The questions are applications of concepts that you already know. We want you to try
these independently and put in your best effort. However, if you are not able to solve them,
you need not worry. We will solve them together when we rejoin school after the holidays.
Attempt them on A4 single lined sheets.
Here we go:

chocolates……yummm…..containing 160 chocolates.
