The villagers rear various breeds of cows. Gir is an Indian cow breed from Gujarat, with a high milk-producing capacity. Among the villagers, there are 453 Gir cows. Each of these cows give 13 litres of milk each day. How many litres of milk does the dairy cooperative receive from Gir cows everyday?

Correct Answer

Given: Number of Gir cows = 453 Milk per cow = 13 litres

Formula: Total milk = Number of cows × Milk per cow

Calculation: Total milk = 453×13453 \times 13 = 453 × (10 + 3) = (453×10453 \times 10) + (453×3453 \times 3) = 4530 + 1359 = 5889

Answer: The dairy cooperative receives 5,889 litres of milk from Gir cows every day.

Explanation

The chapter shows: 453 Gir cows × 13 litres per cow = 5,889 litres. Using expanded form: 453×13453 \times 13 = (400 + 50 + 3) × (10 + 3).

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Total milk = 453 cows × 13 litres per cow

  2. Step 2: 453×13453 \times 13 = 453 × (10 + 3)

  3. Step 3: 453×10453 \times 10 = 4530, 453×3453 \times 3 = 1359

  4. Step 4: 4530 + 1359 = 5889 litres
