| 1 | 6 | 5 |

Let's address each of the questions step-by-step:

How many more tickets did the boys sell?


The boys sold 95 tickets, and the girls sold 45 tickets.
To find out how many more tickets the boys sold than the girls, subtract the number of tickets the girls sold from the number sold by the boys: 95 − 45 = 50
The boys sold 50 more tickets than the girls.


How many marks did Rahul get in all?


Rahul got 35 marks in one test and 40 marks in another.
To find the total marks Rahul got, add the marks from both tests: 35 + 40 = 75
Rahul got a total of 75 marks.


How many total roses are there?


There are 37 red roses and 40 white roses.
Add the number of red roses to the number of white roses to find the total: 37 + 40 = 77
There are 77 total roses.


How many children are there in all?


Class II has 34 girls and 46 boys.
To find the total number of children, add the number of girls and boys: 34 + 46 = 80
There are 80 children in total.


How many pages are left to be read?


Raj is reading a book with 48 pages and has already read 30 pages.
Subtract the pages Raj has read from the total pages to find how many are left: 48 − 30 = 18
There are 18 pages left to be read.


How many fruits were there in the two baskets?


There were 36 fruits in one basket and 20 fruits in the second basket.
To find the total number of fruits, add the fruits in both baskets: 36 + 20 = 56
There are 56 fruits in the two baskets.


What number should be put in the box at the center, so that the total is the same in all directions?


The current grid is: 3 8 1 ​ 2 □ 6 ​ 7 0 5 ​
Each row, column, and diagonal should have the same total. The middle number (center box) should be calculated to balance the grid such that the sums of the rows and columns remain equal.

Let's find the sum for one row that already balances: the first row is 3 + 2 + 7 = 12 .

For the middle row: 8 + □ + 0 = 12 yields: □ = 12 − 8 = 4
The middle column: 2 + □ + 6 = 12 confirms: □ = 12 − 8 = 4

Thus, the number that should be put in the box at the center is 4 . This satisfies all directions (rows, columns, and diagonals).
