Class IX: 10 Sets Model Questions - Solved
1. Draw a flowchart to calculate the simple interest.
A flowchart consists of:
Start
Input P, R, T
Calculate SI = (P × R × T) / 100
Print SI
End
2. Write down the output of the following program
CLS
A = 2
B = 1
PRINT A;
PRINT B;
C = 3
WHILE C <= 10
Z = A + B
PRINT Z;
S = S + Z
A = B
B = Z
C = C + 1
WEND
END
Output:
2 1 3 4 7 11 18 29 47 76
Explanation:
It prints a sequence similar to Fibonacci, starting from 2, 1.
The loop runs from C = 3 to C = 10, generating new values.
Programming Tasks
3. Program to Input a Word and Count Total Number of Alphabet ‘A’
(QBASIC)
CLS
INPUT "Enter a word: ", word$
count = 0
FOR i = 1 TO LEN(word$)
IF MID$(UCASE$(word$), i, 1) = "A" THEN
count = count + 1
END IF
NEXT i
PRINT "Total number of 'A': "; count
END
4. Program to Sort Numbers in Ascending Order (QBASIC)
CLS
DIM numbers(10)
INPUT "Enter the number of elements: ", n
FOR i = 1 TO n
INPUT "Enter number "; numbers(i)
NEXT i
FOR i = 1 TO n - 1
FOR j = 1 TO n - i
IF numbers(j) > numbers(j + 1) THEN
temp = numbers(j)
numbers(j) = numbers(j + 1)
numbers(j + 1) = temp
END IF
NEXT j
NEXT i
PRINT "Sorted numbers: ";
FOR i = 1 TO n
PRINT numbers(i);
NEXT i
END
5. Program to Input Three Numbers and Find the Highest using Array
(QBASIC)
CLS
DIM num(3)
FOR i = 1 TO 3
INPUT "Enter number "; num(i)
NEXT i
highest = num(1)
FOR i = 2 TO 3
IF num(i) > highest THEN
highest = num(i)
END IF
NEXT i
PRINT "The highest number is: "; highest
END

o CPU (Central Processing Unit): The brain of the computer,
executes instructions.
o Main Sections:
ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit): Performs arithmetic and
logical operations.
CU (Control Unit): Controls execution of instructions.
Registers: Stores temporary data.
3. Why is a printer called a hardcopy output?
o A printer is a hardcopy output device because it produces a
permanent physical copy of digital data on paper.
4. Precautions to Save a Floppy Disk:
o Keep away from magnets.
o Avoid bending or folding.
