Given:  The number line.

Primary Mathematics Workbook 4A Common Core Edition Chapter 1 Whole Numbers Exercises 1.1- 1.6 Page 13, Exercise 1.3 , Problem 1

 

To find –  The number that each letter represents.

We will find the least count between the numbers and accordingly find the numbers.

First, we will find the number of divisions between 35,000 and 40,000.

There are 5 divisions which can be seen from the figure. Now, the difference between 35,000 and 40,000 can be calculated as 40,000−35,000=5,000.

Now dividing the difference by the number of divisions obtain the least count. Hence, the least count is given by

\(\frac{5,000}{5}\) = 1,000.

Now, the number that each letter represent can be found as follows

A is located two divisions before 35,000 so it can be calculated by subtracting 1,000 two times from 35,000.

Hence, A=35,000−1,000−1,000=33,000.

Now, B is located two divisions after 35,000 so it can be calculated by adding 1,000 two times to 35,000.

This implies, B = 35,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 = 37,000.

Solving further, no we find C.

C is located just after 40,000 so it can be calculated by adding 1,000 to 40,000.

Hence, A = 40,000 + 1,000 = 41,000.

Further, calculating D which is located before 45,000, we need to subtract 1,000 from 45,000.

So, D = 45,000 −1,000 = 44,000.

Page 166  Exercise 5.7  Problem 3

It is given that Peter practices the piano for   1​​\(\frac{3}{4}\)h.

Pablo practices for 125min.

We have to find who practices for a longer time and how much longer.

To compare them, we have to convert 1​​\(\frac{3}{4}\)h.into minutes using the conversion.

After conversion, the person having the greater value in minutes would practice for longer.

To get how much longer, we subtract them.

We have Peter’s time for practice as 1​​​\(\frac{3}{4}\)h.

Let us convert it to minutes first.

Here, the whole number is 1h.

Using conversion 1h = 60min, we get it to be equivalent to 60min.

The improper fraction is  ​​\(\frac{3}{4}\)h.

Using conversion, we get it to be equivalent to

⇒  ​​\(\frac{3}{4}\)h × 60min

= 3 × 15min

= 45 min

Combining these by adding

60min + 45min = 105min

So, we have got that Peter practices the piano for 105min.

Now, Peter practices piano for 105min.

Pablo practices piano for 125min.

Therefore, it is clear that since 125>105, Pablo practices longer than Peter.

Finding the difference

⇒ 125 − 105 = 20min

So, Pablo practices 20 min longer than Peter.

When it is given that Peter practices the piano for  1​\(\frac{3}{4}\)h and Pablo practices for 125min, we can say that Pablo practices for a longer time and for 20min  longer than Peter.

It is given that 1\(\frac{2}{3}\)h _____ 100min.

To compare and fill the blank.

First, we will convert the quantities on both sides of the blank into a single unit, i.e. minutes.

Then we will compare them and use the appropriate sign to fill the blank.

Let us convert   1\(\frac{2}{3}\)h   into minutes.

Here, the whole number is 1h.

Using conversion 1h = 60min, we get it to be equivalent to60min

The improper fraction is  \(\frac{2}{3}\) h.

Then we will compare them and use the appropriate sign to fill the blank.

Let us convert 1\(\frac{1}{20}\) min   to centimetres.

Here, the whole number is 1m.

Using conversion 1m = 100cm, we get it to be equivalent to

1m × 100 = 100cm.

The improper fraction is \(\frac{1}{20}\) m.

Using conversion, we get it to be equivalent to

⇒ \(\frac{1}{20}\) m × 100  = 5cm.

Combining these by adding

100cm + 5cm = 105 cm

So, we have got 105 cm.

Now, we have 105 cm_____120 cm.

Since 105cmis less than 120cm, we can say that

⇒ 105 cm < 120 cm

Finally, we can fill in the blanks as

1\(\frac{1}{20}\) m < ​​120 cm.

For the given quantities, the comparison has been done and we get 1\(\frac{1}{20}\) m <​​ 120cm.

Then we will compare them and use the appropriate sign to fill in the blank

Let us convert 1\(\frac{3}{4}\) ft into inches.

Here, the whole number is 1 ft.

Using conversion 1 ft = 12 in, we get it to be equivalent to

1 ft × 12 = 12 in.

The improper fraction is \(\frac{3}{4}\) ft.

Using conversion, we get it to be equivalent to

⇒ \(\frac{3}{4}\) ft × 12 = 9 in.

Combining these by adding

12 in + 9 in = 21 in.

So, we have got 21 in.

Now, we have 21 in_____20 in

Since 21 in is greater than 20 in, we can say that

⇒ 21 in > 20 in

Finally, we can fill the blank as 1 \(\frac{3}{4}\) ft >​​ 20 in.

We have to find the mass of a bag of coffee in kilograms and grams.

First, we interpret the given data and write it in mathematical terms.

So, a bag of flour is 340g heavier than bag of beans weighing 1kg830g, so we have to add these up to get the weight of bag of flour.

So, weight of a bag of flour = 1kg 830g + 340g.

Now, a bag of flour is 680g lighter than a bag of coffee.

It means that bag of coffee is 680g heavier than bag of flour.

⇒ Weight of bag of coffee = 1kg830g + 340g + 680g

Now adding all the grams, we get

It is given that a bottle holds 1L500ml of water and a bucket holds 3 times as much water as the bottle.

We have to find out how much water the bucket holds.

So, first we interpret and write it is mathematical form.

Then, we use the multiplication operation for compound units and multiply each unit separately.

Then, we use the conversion that 1L = 1000ml.

Finally, we combine the results to get the final result.

The word “times” means multiplication.

So, 3 times would mean that quantity is being multiplied by 3.

Now we multiply 1L 500ml by 3.

Multiplying 1L by 3, we get 3L.

Multiplying 500ml by 3, we get 1500ml.

Now, we use the conversion that 1L=1000ml.

So, 1500ml would be \(\frac{1500}{1000}\)

= 1.5L​​ or ​​1L 500ml.

Adding it with previously found value of 3L, we get 4L​​500ml.

Therefore, the amount of water that the bucket can hold is 4L ​​500ml.

For the given situation when a bottle holds 1L 500ml of water and a bucket holds 3 times as much water as the bottle, the amount of water held by the bucket has been calculated as 4L 500ml.

First, convert into ounces using conversion 1lb = 16 oz

Divide that by 9.

Finally, reconvert back in terms of pounds and ounces.

We have the total weight of mushrooms as 6 lb​​12 oz.

The number of boxes is 9.

So, the weight of one box of mushrooms would be 6 lb ​​12oz ÷ 9.

Using 1 lb = 16 oz

​ 6 lb = 6 × 16 oz

= 96 oz

Adding it with 12 oz,  108 oz

Now, divide 108 by 9
Primary Mathematics Workbook 4A Common Core Edition Chapter 5 measures Page 162 Exercise 5.5 Problem 4

This gives 12oz.

Since it doesn’t exceed 16oz, we cannot convert to pounds.

So, the weight of one box of mushroom is 12 oz.

For the given situation where Meredith had  6 lb 12 oz of mushrooms and she packed them equally into 9 boxes, the weight of the mushrooms in each box has been calculated as 12 oz.

 

Page 162 Exercise 5.5 Problem 5

It is given that a box contains 5 identical books and it has a mass of 6kg850g.

The mass of the empty box is 600g.

We have to find the mass of each book.

Since mass of box + books is given, first deduct mass of empty box to get mass of books alone.

Use unit conversion 1kg =1000g to convert to grams and then subtract.

Then, divide the obtained mass by 5 to get mass of one book.

The mass of books and box is given as 6kg850g.

Using unit conversion, we get

6 × 1000g = 6000g

So, mass of books and box is 6000g+850g=6850g.

The mass of empty box is 600g.

The mass of books  = 6850g − 600g

= 6250g

The mass of books is 6250g.

The number of books is 5.

So, the mass of one book is obtained as 6250g ÷ 5.

Dividing
Primary Mathematics Workbook 4A Common Core Edition Chapter 5 measures Page 162 Exercise 5.5 Problem 5

This gives 1250g.

Using conversion 1kg = 1000g

\(\frac{1250}{100}\) = 1.25kg

Or we get 1kg​​250g.

Hence, the mass of one book is 1kg​​250g.

Therefore we got the mass of one book 1kg​​250g when we were given that mass of 5 identical books in a box is  6kg​​850g and the mass of the empty box is 600g.

It is given that a carton contains 3L​​250ml of fruit juice.

We have to find how much fruit juice we can get from 6 such cartons.

Then express as liters and milliliters.

We use multiplication operation when quantity of one carton is given and we require quantity of six cartons.

So, we multiply the given quantity by 6

3L × 6 = 18L

250ml × 6 = 1500ml

Now using conversion 1L = 1000ml, we convert

1500ml = \(\frac{1500}{1000}\) L

= 1.5L

This means that it has got 1L and 500ml

Now adding it with previously found value

18L+1L = 19L

Therefore, we can get 19L​​500ml from 6 cartons of fruit juices.

We can get 19L​​500ml from 6 cartons of fruit juices when it is given that we get 3l​​250ml from 1 carton of fruit juice.

It is given that Jamie bought 6 identical dictionaries as prizes for some party games and the total weight of the dictionaries was 7lb​​ 8oz

We have to find the weight of each dictionary and express the answer in pounds and ounces.

Since total weight is given and we have to find weight of each dictionary, division operation has to be used.

So, we start by writing

Weight of one dictionary \(=\frac{\text { Total Weight of dictionary }}{6}\)

Weight of one dictionary = 7lb​​ 8oz ÷ 6

We can express 7lb = 6lb + 1lb.

Using conversion 1lb = 16oz.

Adding it along with 8oz to get 24oz.

So, we get 6lb ​​24oz ÷ 6.

Dividing

Weight of one dictionary = 1lb​​ 4oz.

Hence, got the answer.

So, we got the weight of one dictionary as 1lb ​​4oz when we know that Jamie bought 6 identical dictionaries as prizes for some party games and the total weight of the dictionaries was 7lb​​8oz.

 

Page 173   Exercise 5.9   Problem 31

It is given that Lindsey bought 8 bottles of orange juice.

Each bottle contained 1L​​275ml of orange juice.

She filled two 2L jugs with orange juice and poured the remaining juice into a barrel.

We have to find the amount of juice present in the barrel and express it in liters and milliliters.

So, first, we find the total amount of orange juice bought by Lindsey by multiplying 1L​​275ml by 8.

Then we convert it into milliliters and also convert 2L
to milliliters using conversion 1L = 1000ml.

Now find the amount of orange juice filled in the jugs.

Then deduct this amount from the total amount to get the amount in barrel.

Again convert it in terms of liters and milliliters.

The amount of juice in each bottle is 1L​​275ml.

The number of bottles is 8.

So, the total amount of juice is 1L​​ 275ml × 8.

Multiplying we get

1L × 8 = 8L

275ml × 8 = 2200ml

Converting 8L into milliliters

8L × 1000 = 8000ml

Now the total amount of juice bought by Lindsey is

8000 + 2200 = 10200ml

The amount of juice that can be poured into a jug is 2L.

There are two such jugs.

So, total amount of juice poured in jugs is 2L ×  2 = 4L.

Using conversion, we get it as 4000ml.

The amount of remaining juice that is poured into a barrel would be

The total amount of juice Lindsey bought − Total amount of juice poured into jugs

​⇒ 10200ml − 4000ml

⇒ 6200ml

Now we have to express it as liters and milliliters.

Using conversion 1L =1000ml

​6200ml = \(\)\frac{6200]{1000}[\latex] L

= 6.2L

This gives us 6L and 200ml.

Therefore, when Lindsey bought 8 bottles of orange juice, each containing 1L​​ 275ml of orange juice, and filled two 2L jugs with orange juice, the remaining juice poured into a barrel is 6L​​ 200ml.

Now, the total amount of money she had is for 10 units.

⇒ 10 units =  10 × 3 dollars

⇒ 10 units = 30 dollars

Therefore, the amount of money she had at first if the bag costs 9 dollars is 30 dollars.

Given: John bought some stamps. He used \(\frac{3}{5}\)of them to make mail letters and had 12 stamps left.

To find  – The number of stamps that he used.

We find the number of stamps he bought and then find \(\frac{3}{5}\) of them.

We are given that John used of the stamps and had 12 stamps left.

Remaining units are 5−3 = 2 units.

This implies

2units =12 stamps

1 unit =6 stamps

Now, the total number of stamps that she had is for 5 units.

⇒ 5 units  = 6 × 5 stamps

⇒  5 units = 30 stamps

We know that she used \(\frac{3}{5}\) of the total stamps.

Thus, the used number of stamps is \(\frac{3}{5}\) of 30 stamps.

Thus, used number of stamps is

⇒ \(\frac{3}{5}\)× 30 = \(\frac{3}{5}\) \(\frac{30}{1}\)

⇒ \(\frac{3×30}{5×1}\)= \(\frac{90}{5}\) 18 stamps.

Therefore, the number of stamps that he used is 18 stamps.

Page 113  Exercise 4.1  Problem 4

We are asked to write the answers in simplest form.

So, by solving we get

\(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}\) = \(\frac{3}{4}\)

\(\frac{1}{6}+\frac{2}{3}\) = \(\frac{1+4}{3}\)=\(\frac{5}{3}\)

\(\frac{2}{9}+\frac{2}{3}\) = \(\frac{2+6}{9}\)=\(\frac{9}{3}\)= 3

\(\frac{1}{9}+\frac{2}{3}\) = \(\frac{1+6}{3}\)=\(\frac{7}{3}\)

\(\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{10}\) = \(\frac{2+1}{10}\)=\(\frac{3}{10}\)

\(\frac{3}{10}+\frac{1}{5}\) = \(\frac{3+2}{10}\)=\(\frac{5}{10}\)= \(\frac{1}{2}\)

\(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{3}{4}\) = \(\frac{1+6}{8}\)=\(\frac{7}{8}\)

\(\frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{4}\) = \(\frac{3+2}{4}\)=\(\frac{5}{4}\)

\(\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{4}\) = \(\frac{1+2}{8}\)=\(\frac{3}{8}\)

\(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{12}\) = \(\frac{3+1}{12}\)=\(\frac{4}{12}\)= \(\frac{1}{3}\)

Therefore, we can say that the simplified fractions are \(\frac{3}{4}\),\(\frac{5}{3}\),3, \(\frac{7}{3}\),\(\frac{3}{10}\),\(\frac{1}{2}\),\(\frac{7}{8}\),\(\frac{5}{4}\) ,\(\frac{3}{8}\),\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Page 116  Exercise 4.2  Problem 4

Given: Some subtraction to compute.

To calculate the given subtractions and make an appropriate word with the answers connecting with the letters, where the word should represent a four-sided figure.

Recall that, subtraction is the process of removing a number from a larger number.

Compute each subtraction row-wise and match the letters with the numbers given in the box.

Follow the steps given below.

Perform the subtractions in the first row.

The LCM of the number 2,6 is 6.

Therefore

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}- \frac{1}{6}\)

=\(\frac{(6÷2)×1−(6÷6)×1}{6}\)

=\(\frac{3−1}{6}\)

=\(\frac{2}{6}\)

=\(\frac{1}{3}\) [Reduce the fraction]

Similarly, the LCM of the number 4,8 is 8.

Therefore

⇒ \(\frac{3}{4}- \frac{5}{8}\)

=\(\frac{3×2−1×5}{8}\)

= \(\frac{6−5}{8}\)

=\(\frac{1}{8}\).

Also, the LCM of the numbers 3,9 is 9.

Therefore \(\frac{2}{3}- \frac{2}{9}\) = \(\frac{2×3−2×1}{9}\)

= \(\frac{6−2}{9}\)

= \(\frac{4}{9}\).

Perform the subtractions in the second row.

The LCM of the numbers 4,12 is 12.

Therefore \(\frac{3}{4}- \frac{1}{12}\) = \(\frac{3×3−1×1}{12}\)

=\(\frac{9−1}{12}\)

= \(\frac{8}{12}\).

= \(\frac{2}{3}\).

Similarly, the LCM of the numbers 5,10 is 10.

⇒ \(\frac{2}{5}- \frac{1}{10}\) = \(\frac{2×2−1×1}{10}\)

=\(\frac{4−1}{10}\)

= \(\frac{3}{10}\).

Also, the LCM of the numbers 6,12 is 12.

Then

⇒ \(\frac{5}{6}- \frac{5}{12}\) = \(\frac{5×2−5×1}{12}\)

= \(\frac{10−5}{12}\)

= \(\frac{5}{12}\).

Perform the subtractions in the Third row.

The LCM of the numbers 5,10 is 10.

Therefore

⇒ \(\frac{4}{5}- \frac{3}{10}\) = \(\frac{4×2−3×1}{10}\)= \(\frac{8−1}{10}\)

= \(\frac{5}{10}\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\). [Reduction the fraction]

Similarly, the LCM of the numbers 2,12 is 12.

\(\frac{1}{2}- \frac{5}{12}\) = \(\frac{1×6−5×1}{12}\)

= \(\frac{6−5}{12}\)

= \(\frac{1}{12}\).

Also, the LCM of the number 12,3 is 12.

Then

⇒ \(\frac{7}{2}- \frac{1}{3}\) = \(\frac{7−4}{12}\)

= \(\frac{3}{12}\)

= \(\frac{1}{4}\).

Match the answers with the letters to form a word that represents a four-sided figure.

Page 117  Exercise 4.3  Problem 1

We are given that Meredith brought a piece of cloth.

She used \(\frac{3}{8}\) of it to make a dress.

We are asked to find the remaining clothes that she has.

Let us consider the remaining cloth as x.

So, from the question

1 = x + \(\frac{3}{8}\)

Transferring \(\frac{3}{8}\) from RHS to LHS.

​x = 1 − \(\frac{3}{8}\)

x = \(\frac{5}{8}\)

Therefore, we can say that \(\frac{5}{8}\) the part of the cloth is left.

Therefore, we can say that Meredith has  \(\frac{5}{8}\) the part of cloth left with her.

Given: John spent \(\frac{1}{2}\) of his money on a toy car. He spent 1

⇒ \(\frac{1}{6}\) of his money on a pen.

To find the fraction of the money he spends altogether.

Here, add the fraction of the money he spends on a toy car and pen.

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\)+\(\frac{1}{6}\)

Multiply and divide the first fraction by 3, to get a common denominator.

⇒ \(\frac{3}{6}\)+\(\frac{1}{6}\)

Simplifying

⇒ \(\frac{3+1}{6}\)

⇒ \(\frac{4}{6}\)

⇒ \(\frac{2}{3}\)

Therefore, the fraction of money John spends altogether on his car is \(\frac{2}{3}\)

To find  – The fraction of orange juice they drank altogether.

Here, add the fraction of orange juice drank by Mary and Jim.

Jim drank \(\frac{1}{5}\) L of orange juice less than Mary.

Therefore, orange juice drank by Jim;

​⇒ \(\frac{7}{10}\) −\(\frac{1}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{7−2}{10}\)

⇒ \(\frac{5}{10}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\)

​Add the fraction of orange juice drank by Mary and Jim

​⇒ \(\frac{7}{10}\)+\(\frac{1}{2}\)

⇒ \(\frac{7+5}{10}\)

⇒ \(\frac{12}{10}\)= \(\frac{6}{5}\)

Therefore, the fraction of orange juice Mary and Jim drank altogether is \(\frac{6}{5}\) L.

Given: Lily bought 1 yd of ribbon. She used \(\frac{1}{2}\) yd to tie a package and \(\frac{3}{10}\) to make a bow.

To find – How much ribbon she had left.

Here, add the fraction of ribbon used.

Then subtract it from the total ribbon brought.

She used \(\frac{1}{2}\)yd to tie a package and \(\frac{3}{10}\) to make a bow.

Therefore, the total ribbon used

​⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\)+\(\frac{3}{10}\)

​⇒ \(\frac{5+3}{10}\)

⇒ \(\frac{8}{10}\)

​⇒ \(\frac{4}{5}\)

Subtract the fraction of ribbon used from the total ribbon brought

​⇒ 1 −  \(\frac{4}{5}\)

⇒ \(\frac{1}{5}\)

Therefore, the length of ribbon Lily left with is \(\frac{1}{5}\) yd.

Given:  The expression \(\frac{5}{8}\) +\(\frac{3}{4}\)

Numerator and Denominator of \(\frac{3}{5}\) by 10

⇒ \(\frac{9 \times 5}{10 \times 5}-\frac{3 \times 10}{5 \times 10}\)

⇒ \(\frac{45}{50}-\frac{30}{50}\)

Since the Denominators are same, subtract the numerator

⇒ \(\frac{9 \times 5}{10 \times 5}\) – \(\frac{3 \times 10}{5 \times 10}\)

⇒ \(\frac{45}{50}\) – \(\frac{30}{50}\)

⇒ \(\frac{15}{50}\)

Now, simplify  \(\frac{15 \div 5}{50 \div 5}=\frac{3}{10}\)

Hence, the solution of \(\frac{9}{10}-\frac{3}{5} \text { is } \frac{3}{10} \text {. }\)

Given: 4\(\frac{5}{6}\)+ 3\(\frac{2}{3}\)

To Find –  Find 4\(\frac{5}{6}\)+ 3\(\frac{2}{3}\)

To add fractions with unlike denominators, first, find the least common multiple of the two denominators and then add and simplify.

The LCM of 6 and 3 is 6. So, we need to find fractions equivalent to 4\(\frac{5}{6}\) and 3\(\frac{2}{3}\) which have 18 in the denominator.

Multiply the numerator and denominator of 4\(\frac{5}{6}\) by 3 , and multiply the numerator and denominator of 3\(\frac{2}{3}\) by 6.

⇒ 4\(\frac{5}{6}\)

⇒ \(\frac{6×4+5}{6}\)

⇒ \(\frac{29}{6}\)

​Similarly 3\(\frac{2}{3}\)

⇒ \(\frac{3×3+2}{3}\)

⇒ \(\frac{11}{3}\)

Now, add the fractions

4\(\frac{5}{6}\) + 3\(\frac{2}{3}\)

⇒ \(\frac{29}{6}\) + \(\frac{11}{3}\)

⇒ \(\frac{29×3}{6×3}+\frac{11×6}{3×6}\)

⇒ \(\frac{87}{18}\) + \(\frac{66}{18}\)

Since the denominators are the same, add the numerators.

⇒ \(\frac{87}{18}\)+\(\frac{66}{18}\)

= \(\frac{87+66}{18}\)

= \(\frac{153}{18}\)

Now, simplify

⇒ \(\frac{153}{18}\)

= \(\frac{153÷9}{18÷9}\)

= \(\frac{17}{2}\)

Hence, the solution of  4\(\frac{5}{6}\) + 3\(\frac{2}{3}\)  is  \(\frac{17}{2}\).

To subtract fractions with unlike denominators, first, find the least common multiple of the two denominators and then subtract and simplify.

The LCM of 4 and 12 is 12. So, we need to find fractions equivalent to  5\(\frac{1}{4}\)  and  2\(\frac{5}{12}\) which have 48 in the denominator.

Multiply the numerator and denominator of 5\(\frac{1}{4}\) by 12, and multiply the numerator and denominator of  2\(\frac{5}{12}\) by, 4.

⇒ 5\(\frac{1}{4}\)

= \(\frac{4×5+1}{4}\)

= \(\frac{21}{4}\)

Similarly

⇒ 2\(\frac{5}{12}\)

= \(\frac{12×2+5}{12}\)

​= \(\frac{29}{12}\)

Now, add the fractions

⇒ 5\(\frac{1}{4}\)– 2\(\frac{5}{12}\)

= \(\frac{21}{4}\) – \(\frac{29}{12}\)

= \(\frac{21×12}{4×12}\) – \(\frac{29×4}{12×4}\)

= \(\frac{252}{48}\) – \(\frac{116}{48}\)

Since the denominators are the same, subtract the numerators.

⇒ \(\frac{252}{48}\) – \(\frac{116}{48}\)

​= \(\frac{252-116}{48}\)

= \(\frac{136}{48}\)

Now, simplify

⇒ \(\frac{136}{48}\)

= \(\frac{136÷8}{48÷8}\)

= \(\frac{17}{6}\)

Hence, the solution of   5\(\frac{1}{4}\)− 2\(\frac{5}{12}\)  is \(\frac{17}{6}\).

Take LCM of 2 and 4 to simplify

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{27}{4}\)

⇒ \(\frac{2+27}{4}\)

⇒ \(\frac{29}{4}\)

Hence the solution is \(\frac{29}{4}-6 \frac{3}{4}=\frac{1}{2}\)

⇒ \(\frac{8 \times 5+1}{8}-\frac{8 \times 3+7}{8}\)

⇒ \(\frac{41}{8}-\frac{31}{8}\)

As the denominator is the same, simplify

⇒ \(\frac{41}{8}-\frac{31}{8}\)

⇒ \(\frac{10}{8} \text { or } \frac{5}{4}\)

Hence solution is [latex3 \frac{7}{8}+\frac{5}{4}=5 \frac{1}{8}][/latex]

​= \(\frac{64}{6}\)+\(\frac{53}{6}\)

​=  \(\frac{64+53}{6}\)

=  \(\frac{53}{6}\)

Subtract the length of the two ropes

Take LCM of 3 and 6, then subtract

⇒ \(\frac{32}{3}\)− \(\frac{53}{6}\)

=  \(\frac{64}{6}\)−\(\frac{53}{6}\)

​=  \(\frac{64−53}{6}\)

=  \(\frac{11}{6}\)

Given: After spending \(\frac{3}{5}\) of his money on a tennis racket, Sean had $14 left.

To Find – How much did the tennis racket cost?

First, assume total money x and then find the value of x, for which he left $14

Then, substitute the value of x, in money he had spent that is \(\frac{3x}{5}\), and find the cost.

Let’s assume, Sean had total money x.

He spent  \(\frac{3}{5}\)  of his money x on a tennis racket.

So, he spent  \(\frac{3x}{5}\)  and left $14.

Therefore, the total money he had

⇒ ​x−\(\frac{3x}{5}\) =14

⇒ \(\frac{5x−3x}{5}\) = 14

⇒ \(\frac{2x}{5}\) = 14

⇒ 2x = 70

Or , x = 35

Hence, the total money he had was $35. He spent on tennis

⇒ \(\frac{3x}{5}\)

=\(\frac{3×35}{5}\)

= 21

Hence, the tennis racket cost $21.

Now, the difference can be found by subtracting the numerators directly as the denominators are same.

⇒ \(\frac{4}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\)= \(\frac{4-1-1}{4}\)

⇒ \(\frac{4}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\)= \(\frac{2}{4}\)

⇒ \(\frac{4}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\)= \(\frac{1}{2}\)

So the difference between given numbers is found to be \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Therefore, the solution for the given expression 1−1 \(1-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\)=________in its shortest form is \(\frac{1}{2}\)

1 \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{2+1}{1}\)

= \(\frac{3}{2}\)

Now making them like fractions.

The denominator of the fractions is different so multiply the number to get the same denominator.

\(\frac{3}{2}\) =\(\frac{3×4}{2×4}\)

= \(\frac{12}{8}\)

Now , 1 \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{12}{8}\).

So, we have to compare \(\frac{12}{8}\) and \(\frac{7}{8}\)

Since 12>7

\(\frac{12}{8}\) is greater than \(\frac{7}{8}\)

Or we can say that

1 \(\frac{1}{2}\) > \(\frac{7}{8}\).

Therefore, after making them like fractions and comparing, we can write as 1 \(\frac{1}{2}\) > \(\frac{7}{8}\).

First, convert the whole number into an improper fraction.

Make them like fractions for comparing them easily.

Then compare the fractions and write the proper symbol.

Given, \(\frac{6}{7}\) and 1.

Convert the given whole number into improper fraction as follows.

Multiply and divide 7 to get a fraction,

​1=1×\(\frac{7}{7}\)

= \(\frac{7}{7}\)

= 1 ​Now making them like fractions.

Now, 1 = \(\frac{7}{7}\)

So, we have to compare \(\frac{6}{7}\) and \(\frac{7}{7}\)

Since 6<7

\(\frac{6}{7}\) is lesser than \(\frac{7}{7}\).

Or we can say that\(\frac{6}{7}\)<1.

Therefore, after making them like fractions and comparing, we can write as \(\frac{6}{7}\)<1.

Make them like fractions for comparing them easily.

Then compare the fractions and write the proper symbol.

Given, \(\frac{10}{11}\) and \(\frac{11}{3}\)

Now making them like fractions.

The denominator of the fractions isdifferent so multiply the number to get the same denominator.

\(\frac{10}{11}\) = \(\frac{10×3}{11×3}\)

= \(\frac{30}{33}\)

\(\frac{11}{3}\) = \(\frac{11×11}{3×11}\)

= \(\frac{121}{33}\)

Now

\(\frac{10}{11}\)= \(\frac{30}{33}\) and

\(\frac{11}{3}\)]= \(\frac{121}{33}\)

So, we have to compare \(\frac{30}{33}\) and \(\frac{121}{33}\)

Since 30<121

\(\frac{30}{33}\) is lesser than \(\frac{121}{33}\)

Or we can say that \(\frac{10}{11}\)< \(\frac{11}{3}\)

Therefore, after making them like fractions and comparing them, we can write as  \(\frac{10}{11}\)< \(\frac{11}{3}\)

Then compare the fractions and write the proper symbol.

Given, \(\frac{10}{3}\) and 3 \(\frac{1}{3}\)

Convert the given mixed fraction into improper fraction as follows.

3 \(\frac{1}{3}\)

=\(\frac{(3×3)+1}{3}\)

= \(\frac{9+1}{3}\)

= \(\frac{10}{3}\)

​Now making them like fractions.

Now,3 \(\frac{1}{3}\)= \(\frac{10}{3}\)

So, we have to compare\(\frac{10}{3}\) and \(\frac{10}{3}\)

Since 10 = 10

\(\frac{10}{3}\) is equal to \(\frac{10}{3}\)

Or we can say that \(\frac{10}{3}\) = 3\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Therefore, after making them like fractions and comparing, we can write as  \(\frac{10}{3}\)= 3\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Given:  Fractional numbers \( \frac{5}{7}, \frac{5}{12}, \frac{11}{18}, \frac{12}{25}\)

The question is to find which of the fractions are greater than \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Compare the numerator and denominator. The fraction will be greater than \(\frac{1}{2}\) , If and only if the denominator is greater than 2×numerator

If we compare the numerator and denominator of each fraction

⇒ \(\frac{5}{12}\)+ \(\frac{1}{12}\)+ \(\frac{3}{12}\)=\(\frac{9}{12}\)

So the missing number is found to be \(\frac{9}{12}\)

Therefore, the missing number in the given expression \(\frac{5}{12}\)+ \(\frac{1}{12}\)+ \(\frac{3}{12}\)=______ is found to be ⇒  \(\frac{9}{12}\)

The question is to find the missing numbers by addition.

Addition of a fractional number can be done by making their denominators the same.

As the denominators are the same here, just by adding directly, answers can be obtained.

Finding the missing numbers in clockwise direction

let the missing numbers be denoted as x

1)  x + \(\frac{1}{3}\) = 1

⇒  x = 1- \(\frac{1}{3}\)

⇒ x = \(\frac{2}{3}\)

2) x  + \(\frac{1}{4}\)  =1

⇒ x = 1− \(\frac{1}{4}\)

⇒ x = \(\frac{3}{4}\)

Similarly, the next missing numbers can be found by subtracting the given number from 1.

3)  x = 1− \(\frac{2}{5}\)

⇒  x = \(\frac{3}{5}\)

4)  x = 1− \(\frac{1}{6}\)

⇒ x = \(\frac{5}{6}\)

Further calculating

5) x = 1− \(\frac{5}{8}\)

x = \(\frac{3}{8}\)

6)  x = 1\(\frac{7}{10}\)

x = \(\frac{3}{10}\)

7) x = 1− \(\frac{2}{9}\)

x = \(\frac{7}{9}\)

As all the answers are in their simplest form, the figure will look like
