Arrange the following numbers in descending order:

5032786, 23794206, 5032790, 23756819, 987876

Answer:
When numbers are arranged in order from a greater value to a smaller value that is called
descending order.

The numbers with more digits are greater than the numbers with less digits. However, if the
numbers of digits are equal in all numbers then the digits at the leftmost place are compared.
The process continues if they are the same until came across unequal digits.

Here,

23794206 and 23756819 are both 8-digits numbers in which the same numbers 2,3 and 7 are

placed ten lakhs, lakhs, ten thousand, thousands and hundreds places respectively whereas 9
and 5 are

placed at tens place respectively.

Since 9 > 5

Therefore 23794206 > 23756819

Here 5032786 and 5032790 are both 7-digits numbers in which the same numbers 5,0,3,2 and
7 are

Placed at ten lakhs, lakhs, ten thousand, thousands and hundreds places respectively whereas
9 and 8

are placed at tens place respectively.

Since 9 > 8

Therefore 5032790 > 5032786

987876 is a 6-digits number

The given numbers in the descending order are:

23794206 > 23756819 > 5032790 > 5032786 > 987876

Arrange the following numbers in descending order:

190909, 1808088, 16060666, 16007777, 181888, 1808090

Answer:
Ordering numbers from the biggest to smallest is known as descending order. The
comparison should be made from the digits at the leftmost place and continues unless came
across any unequal digits at the corresponding places.

Here 16060666 and 16007777 are 8-digits numbers in which the same numbers 1, 6, and 0
are placed at

crores, ten lakhs and lakhs respectively whereas 6 and 0 are placed at ten thousand places
respectively

Since 6 > 0

Therefore 16060666 > 16007777

1808088 and 1808090 are both 7-digits numbers in which the same numbers 1, 8, 0, 8, and o
are placed

at ten lakhs, lakhs, ten thousand, thousands and hundreds places respectively whereas 9 and 8
are

placed at tens place respectively

Since 9 > 8

Therefore 1808090 > 1808088

190909 and 181888 are both 6-digits numbers

In both the numbers the same digit 1 is at lakhs place and the digits at ten thousand place are
9 and 8
Since 9 > 8

Therefore 190909 > 181888

The given numbers in the descending order are:

16060666 > 16007777 > 1808090 > 1808088 > 190909 > 181888

Question 8 Number System Exercise 1B

Next 
Arrange the following numbers in descending order:

199988, 1704382, 200175, 1702497, 201200, 1712040

Answer:
When we arrange numbers from largest to smallest it is known as descending order. The
comparison should be made from the digits at the leftmost place and continues unless came
across any unequal digits at the corresponding places

Here 1712040, 1704382, and 1702497 are all 7-digits numbers in which the same numbers 1
and 7 are

placed at ten lakhs and lakhs places respectively whereas the digits in ten thousand place are
1, 0 and 0

Hence 1712040 is the largest number and the digits in the remaining two numbers at
thousands place are

4 and 2

Since 4 > 2

Therefore 1704382 > 1702497

201200, 200175 and 199988 are 6-digits numbers in which 2 and 1 are at lakhs place
respectively

Since 2 is greater than 1

Therefore 201200 > 200175

Thus 199988 is the smallest number

The given numbers in the descending order are:

1712040 > 1704382 > 1702497 > 201200 > 200175 >199988

Answer:
The numbers arranged from the smallest to the biggest are called ascending order. To
compare two numbers, the following rules are adopted.

1. The number with more digits is more than the number with lesser digits.
2. To compare two numbers consider the leftmost place of the digits and continue till
getting any unequal digit at the corresponding places. The number having a greater
such digit is the greater number.

Here,

9873426 and 9874012 are both 7-digits numbers in which the same numbers 9, 8, and 7 are
placed at ten

lakhs, lakhs, and ten thousand places respectively, and the digits 3 and 4 are placed at
thousands places

Estimate each sum to the nearest hundred:

(10083 + 29380)

Answer:
When estimating, a value that is close to the rounding digit must be taken into account. If the
tens place digit is < 5, the hundreds place digit remains constant, and the right-hand digits
become 0. If the tens place digit is > or = 5, the rounding digit in the hundreds place is
increased by one, and the right side digits are 0.

Estimated value to the nearest hundreds of 10083 = 10080

Define:

(i) factor

(ii) multiple. Give five examples of each.

Answer:

Factor: The exact divisor of a number is known as a factor

Multiple: A number obtained by multiplying it by natural number is known as multiple

Example: 1

We know that 14 = 1 × 14 = 2 × 7

Hence 1, 2, 7, and 14 are the factors of 14

∴ 14 is a multiple of 1, 2, 7 and 14

Example: 2

We know that 8 = 1 × 8 = 2 × 4

8=4×2

Hence 1, 2, 4, and 8 are the factors of 8

Given fractions are 5 / 6 and 20 / 24

By cross multiplication we get

(5 × 24) = 120

(6 × 20) = 120

Now (5 × 24) = (6 × 20) = 120

Hence, 5 / 6 and 20 / 24 are the pairs of equivalent fractions

(ii) 3 / 8 and 15 / 40

Given fractions are 3 / 8 and 15 / 40

By cross multiplication we get

(3 × 40) = 120

(8 × 15) = 120

Now (3 × 40) = (8 × 15) = 120

Hence, 3 / 8 and 15 / 40 are the pairs of equivalent fractions

Given fractions are 4 / 7 and 16 / 21

By cross multiplication we get

(4 × 21) = 84

(7 × 16) = 112

Now (4 × 21) ≠ (7 × 16)

Hence, 4 / 7 and 16 / 21 are not the pairs of equivalent fractions

Hence, 2 / 9 and 14 / 63 are the pairs of equivalent fractions

(v) 1 / 3 and 9 / 24

Given fractions are 1 / 3 and 9 / 24

By cross multiplication we get

(1 × 24) = 24

(3 × 9) = 27

Now (1 × 24) ≠ (3 × 9)

Hence,1 / 3 and 9 / 24 are not the pairs of equivalent fractions

(vi) 2 / 3 and 33 / 22

Given fractions are 2 / 3 and 33 / 22

By cross multiplication we get

(2 × 22) = 44

(3 × 33) = 99

Now (2 × 22) ≠ (3 × 33)

Hence, 2 / 3 and 33 / 22 are not the pairs of equivalent fractions

Question 3 Fractions Exercise 5C

Next 

Find the equivalent fraction of 3 / 5 having

(i) denominator 30

(ii) numerator 24
Answer:

Fractions that have the same values but different numerators and denominators are called
equivalent fractions. To make the fractions equivalent the numerator and denominator are
multiplied or divided with the same number.

(i) Let 3 / 5 = / 30

Clearly shows 30 = (5 × 6)

Now multiply the numerator by 6 also

3 / 5 = (3 × 6) / (5 × 6) = 18 /30

Hence, 18 / 30 is the equivalent fraction of 3 / 5 having denominator 30

(ii) Let 3 / 5 = 24 /

Clearly shows 24 = (3 × 8)

Now multiply the denominator by 8 also

Find the equivalent fraction of 5 / 9 having

(i) denominator 54

(ii) numerator 35

Answer:

Equivalent fractions are those fractions that have the same value but different numerators and
denominators. The numerator and denominator are multiplied or divided by the same number
to make the fractions comparable.

(i) Let 5 / 9 = / 54

Clearly shows 54 = (9 × 6)

Now multiply the numerator by 6 also

5 / 9 = (5 × 6) / (9 × 6) = 30 / 54

Hence, 30 / 54 is the equivalent fraction of 5 / 9 having denominator 54

(ii) Let 5 / 9 = 35 /

Clearly shows 35 = (5 × 7)

Now multiply the denominator by 7 also

5 / 9 = (5 × 7) / (9 × 7) = 35 / 63

Hence, 35 / 63 is the equivalent fraction of 5 / 9 having numerator 35

Question 5 Fractions Exercise 5C

In an equivalent fraction the multiplication and division of a fraction by a number does not
change its values.

(i) Let 6 / 11 =____ / 77

Clearly shows 77 = (11 × 7)

Now multiply the numerator by 7 also

6 / 11 = (6 × 7) / (11 × 7) = 42 / 77

Hence, 42 / 77 is the equivalent fraction of 6 / 11 having denominator 77

(ii) Let 6 / 11 = 60 /__

Clearly shows 60 = (6 × 10)

Now multiply the denominator by 10 also

(v) 6 / 11 _ 5 / 11

(vi) 11 / 20 _ 17 / 20

Answer:

Rule of comparison between like fractions:

When two like fractions (fractions having the same denominators) are compared, the number
with the larger numerator is greater among the two fractions.
(i) Since among the two fractions with the same denominator, the one with the greater

the numerator is the greater of the two

Hence, 8 / 9 > 5 / 9

(ii) Since among the two fractions with the same denominator, the one with the greater

the numerator is the greater of the two

Hence, 9 / 10 > 7 / 10

(iii) Since among the two fractions with the same denominator, the one with the greater

the numerator is the greater of the two

Hence, 3 / 7 < 6 / 7

(iv)Since among the two fractions with the same denominator, the one with the greater

the numerator is the greater of the two

Hence, 11 / 15 > 8 / 15

(v) Since among the two fractions with the same denominator, the one with the greater

the numerator is the greater of the two

Hence, 6 / 11 > 5 / 11

(vi)Since among the two fractions with the same denominator, the one with the greater

the numerator is the greater of the two

Hence, 11 / 20 < 17 / 20

(iv) 8 / 11 _ 8 / 13
(v) 5 / 12 _ 5 / 8

(vi) 11 / 4 _ 11 / 15

Answer:

Rule of comparison between the same numerator fractions:

When two fractions having the same numerators are compared, the number with the smaller
denominator is greater among the two fractions.

(i) Since among two fractions with the same numerator, the one with the smaller denominator
is the

greater of the two

Hence 3 / 4 > 3 / 5

(ii) Since among two fractions with the same numerator, the one with the smaller
denominator is the

greater of the two

Hence, 7 / 8 > 7 / 10

(iii) Since among two fractions with the same numerator, the one with the smaller
denominator is the

greater of the two

Hence, 4 / 11 < 4 / 9

(iv) Since among two fractions with the same numerator, the one with the smaller
denominator is the

greater of the two

Hence, 8 / 11 > 8 / 13

(v) Since among two fractions with the same numerator, the one with the smaller
denominator is the

greater of the two

Hence, 5 / 12 < 5 / 8

(vi) Since among two fractions with the same numerator, the one with the smaller
denominator is the

greater of the two

Hence, 11 / 4 > 11 / 15

Question 6 Fractions Exercise 5D

Next 

Compare the fractions given below:

4 / 5, 5 / 7

Answer:

Before converting unlike fractions (those with different numerators and denominators) to
comparable fractions, we must first convert them to like fractions by taking the LCM of their
denominators. You'll note that the one with a larger numerator has a higher value when you
compare the two.

Given fractions are 4 / 5 and 5 / 7

LCM of 5 and 7 = (5 × 7) = 35

Now convert each one of 4 / 5 and 5 / 7 into an equivalent fraction having 35 as

denominator

4 / 5 = (4 × 7) / (5 × 7) = 28 / 35

5 / 7 = (5 × 5) / (7× 5) = 25 / 35

Clearly it shows 28 / 35 > 25 / 35

Hence, 4 / 5 > 5 / 7

Question 7 Fractions Exercise 5D

higher value.

Given fractions are 3 / 8 and 5 / 6

LCM of 8 and 6 = (2 × 2 × 2 × 3) = 24

Now convert each one of 3 / 8 and 5 / 6 into an equivalent fraction having 24 as

denominator

3 / 8 = (3 × 3) / (8 × 3) = 9 / 24

5 / 6 = (5 × 4) / (6 × 4) = 20 / 24
Clearly it shows 9 / 24 < 20 / 24

Hence, 3 / 8 < 5 / 6

Question 8 Fractions Exercise 5D

Next 

Compare the fractions given below:

7 / 11, 6 / 7

Answer:

While converting unlike fractions (both numerators and denominators are different), we have

them to equivalent fractions. Now, compare the two, the one with a greater numerator is
greater in value.

Given fractions are 7 / 11 and 6 / 7

LCM of 11 and 7 = (11 × 7) = 77

Now convert each one of 7/11 and 6/7 into an equivalent fraction having 77 as denominator

7 / 11 = (7 × 7) / (11 × 7) = 49 / 77

6 / 7 = (6 × 11) / (7 × 11) = 66 / 77

Clearly it shows 49 / 77 < 66 / 77

Hence, 7 / 11 < 6 / 7

Question 9 Fractions Exercise 5D

with a larger numerator has a higher value.

Given fractions are 5 / 6 and 9 / 11

LCM of 11 and 6 = (11 × 6) = 66

Now convert each one of 5 / 6 and 9 / 11 into an equivalent fraction having 66 as

denominator

5 / 6 = (5 × 11) / (6 × 11) = 55 / 66

9 / 11 = (9 × 6) / (11 × 6) = 54 / 66

Clearly it shows 55 / 66 > 54 / 66

Hence, 5 / 6 > 9 / 11

Question 10 Fractions Exercise 5D

Next 

Compare the fractions given below:

2 / 3, 4 / 9

Given fractions are 2 / 3 and 4 / 9

LCM of 3 and 9 = (3 × 3) = 9

Now convert each one of 2 / 3 and 4 / 9 into an equivalent fraction having 9 as denominator

2 / 3 = (2 × 3) / (3 × 3) = 6 / 9

4 / 9 = (4 ×1) / (9 × 1) = 4 / 9
Clearly it shows 6 / 9 > 4 / 9

Hence, 2 / 3 > 4 / 9

Question 11 Fractions Exercise 5D

Now the one with the greater numerator is the greater between the two numbers.

Given fractions are 6 / 13 and 3 / 4

LCM of 13 and 4 = (2 × 2 × 13) = 52

Now convert each one of 6/13 and 3/4 into an equivalent fraction having 52 as denominator

6 / 13 = (6 × 4) / (13 × 4) = 24 / 52

3 / 4 = (3 × 13) / (4 × 13) = 39 / 52

Clearly it shows 24/52 < 39/52

Hence, 6 / 13 < 3 / 4

Question 10 Fractions Exercise 5G

The smallest of the fractions 3 / 5, 2 / 3, 5 / 6, 7 / 10 is

(a) 2 / 3

(b) 7 / 10

(c) 3 / 5

(d) 5 / 6

Answer:

LCM of 5, 3, 6 and 10 = (2 × 3 × 5) = 30

Now, 2 / 3 = (2 × 10) / (3 × 10) = 20 / 30 (by dividing 30 / 3 = 10)

7/10 = (7 × 3) / (10 × 3) = 21 / 30 (by dividing 30 / 10 = 3)

3 / 5 = (3 × 6) / (5 × 6) = 18 / 30 (by dividing 30 / 5 = 6)

5 / 6 = (5 × 5) / (6 × 5) = 25/30 (by dividing 30 / 6 = 5)

18 / 30 is the smallest fraction

Hence, 3 / 5 is the smallest fraction

Option (c) is the correct answer

∴0.294 = 2 / 10 + 9 / 100 + 4 / 1000

(v) 8.006

= 8 ones + 0 tenths + 0 hundredths + 6 thousandths

= (8 × 1) + (0 × 1 /1 0) + (0 × 1 / 100) + (6 × 1 / 1000)

= 8 + 0 / 10 + 0 / 100 + 6 / 1000

= 8 + 6 / 1000

∴8.006 = 8 + 6 / 1000

(vi) 4615.72

Write the following using literals, numbers, and signs of basic operation:

(i) x increased by 12

(ii) y decreased by 7

(iii) The difference of a and b, when a > b

(iv) The product of x and y added to their sum

(v) One-third of x multiplied by the sum of a and b

(vi) 5 times x added to seven times y

(vii) Sum of x and the quotient of y by 5

(viii) x took away from 4

(ix) 2 less than the quotient of x by y

(x) x multiplied by itself

(xi) Twice x increased by y

(xii) Thrice x added to y squared

(xiii) x minus twice y

(xiv) x cubed less than y cubed

(xv) The quotient of x by 8 is multiplied by y

Answer:

(i) x increased by 12 is written as x + 12

(ii) y decreased by 7 is written as y – 7

(iii) The difference of a and b, when a > b is (a – b)

(iv) The product of x and y is xy, added to their sum is (x + y)

Hence, the product of x and y added to their sum is (x + y) + xy

(v) One third of x = x / 3

Sum of a and b = (a + b)

∴ One third of x multiplied by the sum of a and b = x / 3 × (a + b)

= x (a + b) / 3

(vi) 5 times x = 5x, seven times y = 7y

∴ 5 times x added to seven times y is written as 7y + 5x

(vii) Sum of x = x

Quotient of y = y / 5

∴ Sum of x and the quotient of y by 5 = x + y / 5

(viii) x taken away from 4 is written as (4 – x)

(ix) Quotient of x by y = x / y

∴ 2 less than the quotient of x by y = (x / y) – 2

(x) x multiplied by itself is x × x = x2

∴ x multiplied by itself is written as x2

(xi) Twice x increased by y is written as (2x + y)

(xii) Thrice x = 3 × x = 3x and y squared = (y × y)=y2

∴ Thrice x added to y squared is written as 3x+ y2

(xiii) Twice y = 2 × y = 2y

∴ x minus twice y is written as (x – 2y)

(xiv) x cubed = (x × x × x) =x3

y cubed = (y × y × y )=y3

∴ x cubed less than y cubed is written as  y3 − x3

(xv) The quotient of x by 8 is x / 8

∴ The quotient of x by 8 is multiplied by y is written as (x / 8) × y

Question 10 Linear Equations in One Variable Exercise 9C

Next 

The sum of two consecutive even numbers is 74. Find the numbers.

Answer:

Let one of the even number be x

The other consecutive even number (be x + 2)

As per the question

x + (x + 2) = 74

2x + 2 = 74

Subtracting -2 from both sides

2x + 2 – 2 = 74 – 2

2x = 72

Dividing 2 from both sides

2x / 2 = 72 / 2
x = 36

x = 36 and (x + 2) = 36 + 2

= 38

∴ 36 and 38 are the two consecutive even number

Question 11 Linear Equations in One Variable Exercise 9C

Next 

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 21. Find the numbers.

Answer:

Let one of the required odd numbers be x

The other two consecutive odd numbers are (x + 2) and (x + 4)

As per the question

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 21

2x + 2 + x + 4 = 21

2x + x + 2 + 4 = 21

3x + 6 = 21

Subtracting both sides by -6

3x + 6 – 6 = 21 – 6

3x = 15

Dividing both sides by 3

3x / 3 = 15 / 3

x=5

x=5x+2=5+2=7x+4=5+4=9

∴ 5, 7 and 9 are the three consecutive odd numbers

Question 12 Linear Equations in One Variable Exercise 9C

Reena is six-year older than her brother Ajay. If sum of their ages is 28 years,
what are their present ages?
Answer:
Let x years be the present age of Ajay

Reena is 6 years older than Ajay shows (x + 6) years

According to the question

x + (x + 6) = 28

2x + 6 = 28

Subtracting -6 from both sides

2x + 6 – 6 = 28 – 6

2x = 22

Dividing both sides by 2

2x / 2 = 22 / 2

x = 11

x = 11 years and (x + 6) = 11 + 6 = 17 years

∴ Present age of Ajay is 11 years and Reena’s age is 17 years

(ii) Mrs. Sahai’s income to her husband’s income;

(iii) Mr. Sahai’s to the total income of the two.

Answer:

Mr Sahai’s earning = 16,800

And, Mrs Sahai’s earning = 10,500

(i) 16,800 : 10,500 = 168: 105

= 168 / 105

Since, HCF of 168 and 105 is 21

= 168 ÷ 21 / 105 ÷ 21

=8/5

= 8: 5

(ii) 10,500: 16,800 = 105: 168

= 105 / 168

Since, HCF of 105 and 168 is 21

HCF of 15,300 and 1,224 is 612

= 15,300 ÷ 612 / 1,224 ÷ 612

= 25 / 2

Income: saving = 25: 2

Monthly expenditure = (15300 – 1224)

= 14076

(ii) 15,300: 14076 = 15,300 / 14076

HCF of 15,300 and 14076 is 612

= 15,300 ÷ 612 / 14076 ÷ 612

We have: 33: 121

= 33 / 121

= (33 ÷ 11) / (121 ÷ 11)

= 3 / 11

9: 96

= 9 / 96

= (9 ÷ 3) / (96 ÷ 3)

= 3 / 32
∴ 33: 121 ≠ 9: 96

Hence, 33, 121, 9, 96 are not in proportion.

(iv) Given 22, 33, 42, 63

We have: 22: 33

= 22 / 33

= (22 ÷ 11) / (33 ÷ 11)

=2/3

42: 63

= 42 / 63

= (42 ÷ 21) / (63 ÷ 21)

=2/3

∴ 22:33 = 42: 63

Hence, 22, 33, 121, 9, 96 are in proportion.

(v) Given 32, 48, 70, 210

We have: 32: 48

= 32 / 48

= (32 ÷ 6) / (48 ÷ 6)

= (16 / 3) / 8

=2/3

70: 210

= 70 / 210

=7/3

∴ 32: 48 ≠ 70: 210

Hence, 32, 48, 70, 210 are not in proportion

(vi) Given 150, 200, 250, 300

We have: 150: 200

= 150 / 250

= (150 ÷ 50) / (250 ÷ 50)

=3/5

250: 300

= 250 / 300

= (250 ÷ 50) / (300 ÷ 50)

=5/6

∴ 150: 200 ≠ 250: 300

Hence, 150, 200, 250, 300 are not in proportion.

(iii) 108 : 72 : : 129 : 86

(iv) 39 : 65 : : 141 : 235

Answer:

(i) In 60 : 105 : : 84 : 147

We have:

Product of extremes = (60 × 147) = 8820

Product of means = (105 × 84) = 8820

∴ product of extremes = product of means

(ii) In 91 : 104 : : 119 : 136

We have:
Product of extremes = (91 × 136) = 12376

Product of means = (104 × 119) =12376

∴ product of extremes = product of means.

(iii) In 108 : 72 : : 129 : 86

We have:

Product of extremes = (108 × 86) = 9288

Product of means = (72 × 129) = 9288

∴ product of extremes = product of means.

(iv) In 39 : 65 : : 141 : 235

We have:

Product of extremes = (39 × 235) = 9165

Product of means = (65 × 141) = 9165

(ii) 27 : x : : 63 : 84

(iii) 51 : 85 : : 57 : x

(iv) x : 92 : : 87 : 116

Answer:

(i) Clearly, the product of means = product of extremes.

∴ 11 × x = 55 × 6

x = (55 × 6) / 11

= 330 / 11
= 30

∴ x = 30

(ii) Clearly, product of means = product of extremes.

∴ x × 63 = 27 × 84

63x = 27 × 84

x = (27 × 84) / 63

x = 2268 / 63

= 36

∴ x = 36

(iii) Clearly, the product of means = product of extremes.

∴ 85 × 57 = 51 × x

51x = 85 × 57

x = (85 × 57) / 51

x = 4845 / 51

x = 95

∴ x = 95

(iv) Clearly, product of means = product of extremes.

∴ 92 × 87 = x × 116

116 × x = 92 × 87

116x = 92 × 87

116x = 8004

x = 8004 / 116

= 69

∴ x = 69

(vi) 32 Kg : Rupees 36 : : 8 Kg : Rupees 9

Answer:

(i) In 51 : 68 : : 85 : 102

Product of extremes = (51 × 102) = 5202

Product of means = (68 × 85) = 5780

∴ Product if extremes ≠ product of means

Hence, false

(ii) In 36: 45:: 80 : 100

Product of extremes = (36 × 100) = 3600

Product of means = (45 × 80) = 3600

∴ Product of extremes = product of means

Hence, true

(iii) In 30 bags: 18 bags:: Rupees 450 : Rupees 270

Product of extremes = (30 × 270) = 8100

Product of means = (18 × 450) = 8100

∴ Product of extremes = product of means

Hence, true

(iv) In 81 Kg : 45 Kg : : 18 men : 10 men

Product of extremes = (81 × 10) = 810

Product of means = (45 × 18) = 810

∴ Product of extremes = product of means

Hence, true

(v) In 45 Km : 60 Km : : 12 h : 15 h

Product of extremes = (45 × 15) = 675

Product of means = (60 × 12) = 720

Question 5 Ratio, Proportion and Unitary Method. Exercise 10B

Next 

Determine if the following ratios form a proportion:

(i) 25 cm: 1m and Rupees 40: Rupees 160

(ii) 39 liters: 65 liters and 6 bottles: 10 bottles

(iii) 200 mL: 2.5 L and Rupees 4: Rupees 50

(iv) 2 Kg: 80 Kg and 25 g: 625 Kg

Answer:

(i) We have:

25 cm : 1 m = 25 / 100 (1m = 100 cm)

= (25 ÷ 25) / (100 ÷ 25)

=1/4

Rupees 40 : Rupees 160 = 40 / 160

= (40 ÷ 40) / (160 ÷ 40)

=1/4

Hence, 25 cm : 1m and Rupees 40 : Rupees 160 are in proportion.

(ii) We have:

39 litres : 65 litres = 39 / 65

= (39 ÷ 13) / (65 ÷ 13)

=3/5

6 bottles : 10 bottles = 6 / 10

=3/5

Hence, 39 litres : 65 litres and 6 bottles : 10 bottles are in proportion

(iii) We have:

200 mL : 2.5 L = 200 mL : 2500 mL (1 L = 1000 mL)

= 200 / 2500

= 2 / 25

Rupees 4 : Rupees 50 = 4 / 50

= (4 ÷2) / (50 ÷2)

= 2 / 25

Hence, 200 mL : 2.5 L and Rupees 4 : Rupees 50 are in proportion

(iv) We have:

2 Kg : 80 Kg = 2 / 80

= 1 / 40

25 g : 625 Kg = 25 / 625000 (1 Kg = 1000 g)

= (25 ÷ 25) / (625000 ÷ 25)

= 1 / 25000

Hence, 2 Kg : 80 Kg and 25 g : 625 Kg are not in proportion.

Question 1 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 20A

Next 

Find the perimeter of a rectangle in which:

(i) length = 16.8 cm and breadth = 6.2 cm

(ii) length = 2 m 25 cm and breadth = 1 m 50 cm

(iii) length = 8 m 5 dm and breadth = 6 m 8 dm

Answer:

(i) Given length = 16.8 cm

Breadth = 6.2 cm

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

= 2 (16.8 cm + 6.2 cm)

= 2 (23)

= 2 × 23

= 46 cm

(ii) Given length = 2 m 25 cm = 200 + 25 = 225 cm {1m = 100 cm}

Breadth = 1 m 50 cm = 100 + 50 = 150 cm {1m = 100 cm}

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

= 2 (225 + 150)

= 2 (375)

= 2 × 375

= 750 cm

(iii) Given length = 8 m 5 dm = (80 + 5) = 85 dm {1m = 10 dm}

Breadth = 6 m 8 dm = (60 + 8) = 68 dm {1m = 10 dm}

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

= 2 (85 + 68)

= 2 (153)

= 2 × 153

= 306 dm

Question 1 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 21B

Find the radius of a circle whose circumference is 176 cm.
Answer:
Circumference of the circle = 176 cm

Let r cm be the radius of the given circle

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

2πr = 176

r = 176 / 2π

r = (176 / 2) × (7 / 22) {π = 22 / 7}

r = 88 × 0.31

r = 27.28

r = 28 cm

Hence, the radius of the circle is 28 cm

Question 1 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 21D

Next 

The top of a table measures 2 m 25 cm by 1 m 20 cm. Find its area in square

meters.

Answer:

Length of the table = 2 m 25 cm

= (2 + 0.25) m (1 m = 100 cm)

= 2.25 m

Breadth of the table = 1 m 20 cm

= (1 + 0.20) m (1 m = 100 cm)

= 1.20 m

Area of the rectangle = (length × breadth) sq units

= (2.25 × 1.20) m sq

= {(225 / 100) × (120 / 100)} m sq

= 2.7 m sq
Area of the table is 2.7 m sq

Question 2 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 21D

Next 

How many envelopes can be made out of a sheet of paper 3 m 24 cm by 1 m 72

cm, if each envelope requires a piece of paper of size 18 cm by 12 cm?

Answer:

Given

Length of a sheet of paper = 3 m 24 cm

= 324 cm (1 m = 100 cm)

The breadth of the sheet of paper = 1 m 72 cm

= 172 cm (1 m = 100 cm)

Area of the sheet of paper = (length × breadth)

= (324 × 172) cm sq

= 55728 cm sq

Length of the piece of paper to make 1 envelope = 18 cm

The breadth of the piece of paper to make 1 envelope = 12 cm

Area of the piece of paper to make 1 envelope = (length × breadth)

= (18 × 12) cm sq

= 216 cm sq

Number of envelope = (Area of the sheet of paper) / (Area of the piece of paper to make 1
envelope)

Number of envelopes = 55728 / 216

Number of envelopes = 258 envelopes

Number of envelopes that can be made is 258

Question 3 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 21D

Next 
A room is 13 m long and 9 m broad. Find the cost of carpeting the room with
a carpet 75 cm broad at the rate of Rupees 65 per meter.

Answer:

Given,

Length of the room = 13 m

The breadth of the room = 9 m

Area of the room = (length × breadth)

= (13 × 9) m sq

= 117 m sq

Let the required carpet length be x m

Breadth of the carpet = 75 cm = 0.75 m (1 m = 100 cm)

Area of the carpet = (0.75 × x) m sq

= 0.75x m sq

For carpeting the room

Area covered by the carpet = Area of the room

0.75x = 117

x = 117 / 0.75

x = 156 m

Hence, the length of the carpet = 156 m

1 m carpet cost = rupees 65

156 m carpet cost will be = (156 × 65)

= Rupees 10140

Question 4 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 21D

The length and the breadth of a rectangular park are in the ratio 5 : 3 and its
perimeter is 128 m. Find the area of the park.

Answer:
Let the length of the rectangular park be 5x

Breadth of the rectangular park be 3x

Perimeter of the rectangular park = 2 (length + breadth)

= 2 (5x + 3x)

= 2 (8x)

= 16x

Given perimeter of the rectangular park = 128 m

128 = 16x

x = 128 / 16

x=8

Hence, length of the park = 5x

=5×8

= 40 m

Breadth of the park = 3x

=3×8

= 24 m

Area of the park = (length × breadth)

= (40 × 24)

= 960 m sq

Question 1 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 21E

length of the rectangle is

(a) 21 cm

(b) 28 cm

(c) 35 cm
(d) 14 cm

Answer:

Sides of the rectangle in the ratio = 7: 5

Perimeter = 96 cm

Hence, Length + Breadth = 96 / 2

= 48 cm

Let length be = 7x

Breadth be = 5x

7x + 5x = 48

12x = 48

x = 48 / 12

x=4

Length of the rectangle = 7x

=7×4

= 28 cm

Option (b) is the correct answer

Question 2 Concept of Perimeter and Area Exercise 21E

the rectangle is

(a) 63 cm

(b) 130 cm

(c) 100 cm

(d) 126 cm

Answer:

Area of the rectangle = 650 cm sq

Breadth = 13 cm

Length = Area / breadth

= 650 / 13

= 50 cm

Perimeter = 2 (length + breadth)

= 2 (50 + 13) cm

= 2 (63)

= 126 cm

Option (d) is the correct answer

Next 

The area of a rectangular carpet is 120 m sq and its perimeter is 46 m. The

length of its diagonal is

(a) 15 m

(b) 16 m

(c) 17 m

(d) 20 m

Answer:

Area of the rectangular carpet = 120 cm sq

Perimeter = 46 m

2 (l + b) = 46

(I + b) = 46 / 2

= 23

And (length × breadth) = 120

(1−�)2=(1+�)2−4��=(23)2−4×120=529−480=49=(7)2(1−b)2
=(1+b)2−4lb=(23)2−4×120=529−480=49=(7)2
Hence, l – b = 7

And l + b = 23

By adding, we get 2l = 30

l = 30 / 2

l = 15

b = 23 – 15

=8

 Diagonal =(12+�2)=((15)2+(8)2)=(225+64)=289=17m Diagonal =(1
2+b2)=((15)2+(8)2)=(225+64)=289=17m
