Fractions Exercise 7.1 Solutions :
(8) Write the natural numbers from 2 to 12. What fraction of them are prime numbers?
Solution :
Natural numbers from 2 to 12 are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
Prime no is are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11,
∴ Fraction is 5/11
(9) Write the natural numbers from 102 to 113. What fraction of them are prime numbers?
Solution :
We know, The Natural numbers are 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113
Prime numbers = (113, 107, 109, 113)
∴ Total numbers,
= (113 – 102) + 1
= 12
Prime numbers = 4
Now, the required fraction,
= 4/12
= 1/3
Thus, 1/3 fraction of them are prime numbers.
Fractions Exercise 7.2 Solution :
(4) Find the equivalent fraction of 3/5 having
(a) denominator 20
(b) numerator 9
(c) denominator 30
(d) numerator 27
Solution :
(b) Equivalent fraction of 3/5 having numerator 9 is
= 9/15
(c) Equivalent fraction of 3/5 having denominator 30 is
= 18/30
(5) Find the equivalent fraction of 36/48 with
(i) Numerator 9
(ii) Denominator 4
Solution :
(i) With numerator 9
= 36/48
= 36 ÷ 4/48 ÷ 4
= 9/12
(ii) With denominator 4
= 36/48
= 36 ÷ 12/48 ÷ 12
= 3/4
(6) Check whether the given fractions are equivalent :
(i) 5/9, 30/54
(ii) 3/10, 12/50
(iii) 7/13, 5/11
Solution :
(i) 5/9, 30/54
= 5/9 = 5 × 6/9 × 6
= 30/54
∴ These are equivalent
(ii) 3/10, 12/50
∴ 3/10
= 3 × 4/10 × 43
= -19/40
∴ These are not equivalent
(iii) 7/13, 5/11
= 7/13 × 5/5
= 35/65
Now, 5/11 × 7/7
= 35/77
∴ These are not equivalent
Fractions Exercise 7.3 Solutions :
(2) Compare the following fractions and put an appropriate sign :
(a) 3/6 __ 5/6
(b) 1/7 __ 1/4
(c) 4/5 __ 0/5
Solution :
(a) 3/6 < 5/6
(b) 1/7 < 1/4
(c) 4/5 > 0/5
(6) The following fractions represent just three different numbers. Separate them in to three groups of equal fractions by changing each one to its simplest from:
(i) 2/12
(ii) 3/15
(iii) 8/50
(iv) 16/100
(v) 10/60
(vi) 15/75
(vii) 12/60
(viii) 16/96
(ix) 12/75
(x) 12/72
(ix) 3/18
(xii) 4/25
Solution :
(i) 2/12
= 1/6
(ii) 3/15
= 1/5
(iii) 8/50
= 4/25
(iv) 16/100
= 4/25
(v) 10/60
= 1/6
(vi) 15/75
= 1/5
(vii) 12/60
= 1/5
(viii) 16/96
= 1/6
(ix) 12/75
= 4/25
(x) 12/72
= 1/6
(ix) 3/18
= 3/18 = 1/6
(xii) 4/25
= 4/25
(7) Find answers to the following. Write and indicate how you solved them.
(i) Is 5/9 equal to 4/5?
(ii) Is 9/16 equal to 5/9?
(iii) Is 4/5 equal to 16/20?
(iv) Is 1/15 equal to 4/30?
Solution :
(i) 5/9 = 4/5
∴ 5 × 5 = 4 × 9
= 25 ≠ 36
(ii) 9/16 = 5/9
∴ 9 × 9 = 16 × 5
= 81 ≠ 80
(iii) 4/5 = 16/20
∴ 4 × 20 = 5 × 16
∴ 80 = 80
(iv) No ; because
= 1/15 = 1*2/15*2 = 2/30
Since, 2/30 < 4/40 that is 1/15 < 4/30.
(9) Rafiq exercised for 2/3 hour, while Rohit exercised for 3/4 hour. who exercised for a longer time
Solution :
Rafiq exercise = 2/3 hour
Rohit exercise = 3/4 hour
∴ 2/3 3/4
= 8 < 9
So, 2/3 < 3/4.
∴ Rohit exercise more.
Fractions Exercise 7.6 Solutions :
(5) Complete the addition-subtraction box.
Solution :
(a)
2/3 | 4/3 | 2 |
1/3 | 2/3 | 1 |
1/3 | 2/3 | 1 |
(b)
1/2 | 1/3 | 5/6 |
1/3 | 1/4 | 7/12 |
1/6 | 1/12 | 1/4 |
(6) A piece of wire 7/8 metres long broke into two pieces. One piece was 1/4 meter long. How long is the other piece?
Solution :
A wire 7/8 metres long broke into two pieces.
One piece was 1/4 meter long
∴ Length of the other piece,
= (9/8 – 1/4)
= 7 -2/8
= 5/8 meter
So, the length of the other piece 5/8 metre.
(9) Ravish takes 2 1/5 minutes to walk across the school ground. Rahul takes 7/4 minutes to do the same. Who takes less time and by what fraction?
Solution :
Ravish takes,
= 2 1/5 minutes
= 11/5 min
Rahul takes,
= 7/4 min
L,C,M of 4, 5 = 20
∴ 11/5 × 20 = 44 minutes (Ravish)
7/4 × 20 = 35 minute (Rahul)
∴ Ravish take less time.
