  2.     2
  3.     13
  4.     3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 2
:
B

The fractions 359 and 539 are like fractions, as they have same denominator. 
To subtract like fractions, we have to subtract only the numerators and keep the denominator same.
539359=53359             =189             =2


Question 32.


Identify the proper fractions from the following:


1. 117


2. 37


3. 99999


4. 114788


5. 14100


  1.     1, 2 and 4 
  2.     2, 3 and 5   
  3.     2, 4 and 5  
  4.     1, 3 and 5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 2, 4 and 5  
:
C

A proper fraction is a fraction in which the numerator is less than the denominator.
In 2, the numerator (3) is lesser than the denominator (7).
In 4, the numerator (114) is lesser than the denominator (788).
In 5, the numerator (14) is lesser than the denominator (100).
Only 2, 4 and 5 satisfy this condition.

Hence, 2,4 and 5 are proper fractions.


Question 33.


Equivalent fractions are defined as the fractions that represent the __ part of whole.


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 2, 4 and 5  
:

Equivalent fractions are defined as the fractions that represent the same part of whole.


Question 34.


State whether true or false- All the fractions can be expressed as mixed fractions.


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     3
  4.     4
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

Only improper fractions can be expressed as mixed fractions.


Question 35.


In the given number line, what is the fraction that point A denotes?


In The Given Number Line, What Is the Fraction That Point A...


  1.     166
  2.     186
  3.     167
  4.     187
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 187
:
D

Between 2 and 3, the line is divided into 7 parts.
We know,  2=147 and 3=217.
Thus, the divisions between 2 and 3 marked in the figure correspond to the fractions 157,167,177,187,197 and 207.


The point A corresponds to the fraction 187.


Question 36.


If Anu can eat 26  part of a medium pizza containing 6 slices, how many slices can Anu eat? 


  1.     1
  2.     2
  3.     3
  4.     4
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 2
:
B

No. of  slices which Anu can eat = 26×6 =2 slices


Question 37.


P =  78 and Q =  87 ; Which is greater P or Q?
Ans: ___.


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 2
:

Given that P = 78  and Q = 87
Let a = 7 ; b = 8; c = 8 and d = 7
We have a×d=7×7=49
               b×c=8×8=64
Since a×d<b×c we have 
Q > P 


Question 38.


The fractions which have same numerators are known as like fractions.


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     24812
  4.     24912
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

The fractions which have same denominators are known as like fractions. Otherwise, they are known as unlike fractions 


Question 39.


Add:  4141353 =


  1.     241112
  2.     24712
  3.     24812
  4.     24912
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 241112
:
A

Let us first convert the mixed fraction 1353  to improper fraction.
i.e.,  1353=13×3+53=443
Now,  414+1353=414+443=41×34×3+44×43×4=123+17612=29912=241112


Question 40.


Determine the numerator and denominator in this fraction: 27


  1.     Numerator = 7; Denominator = 2
  2.     Numerator = 2; Denominator = 7
  3.     Numerator = 14; Denominator = 4
  4.     Numerator = 4; Denominator = 14
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Numerator = 2; Denominator = 7
:
B

This is the example of proper fraction.
The number above the line in a proper/improper fraction is called the numerator and the number below the line is called the denominator.
Hence, here the numerator 2 is and the denominator is 7.
