                  V. Competency-based/Application-based questions.

                     1.   Tom collected the ages of his friends: 12, 9, 15, and 11. He wants to arrange their ages in
                        order from the youngest to the oldest. How should Tom sort these ages, and what will
                        the list look like after sorting?

                     2.   Riya received a coded message from her friend that says "Hppe." The code
                        used changes each letter to the previous one in the alphabet (B becomes A,
                        C becomes B, etc.). What does the coded message "Hppe" decode to, and
                        how did you figure it out?

                     3.   Neeraj wants to display his exam scores in a well-structured way. What is the best way
                        to represent this data?

                     4.   Eklavya  conducted  a  survey  in  his  school  and  collected  data  on  students'  favourite
                        sports. He wants to present the information in an easy-to-understand format.

                        Which of the following would be the best way for him to represent the processed data?
                        a.  A random list of student names and their favourite sports.

                        b.  A well-organised table or a pictogram.

                        d.  Writing a paragraph about his findings.

                  VI. Assertion and Reasoning questions.

                       Direction: The  following question  consist of two statements  –  Assertion  (A) and
                     Reasoning (R). Answer these questions by selecting the appropriate option given below:

                     a. Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
                     b. Both A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.

                     c. A is correct but R is incorrect.
                     d. A is incorrect but R is correct.

                     1.   Assertion (A): Sorting data in Excel helps in arranging information systematically.

                        Reason (R): Sorting can only be done in ascending order.
                     2.   Assertion (A): Decoding is the process of converting coded data into understandable
                        information.

                          Reason (R):  Decoding  is only used  in computer  programming,  not in everyday
                        applications.
