5. Simplify the following.

(i) 19.2 ÷ 2.4

(ii) 4.95 ÷ 0.5

(iii) 19.11÷ 1.3

(iv) 0.399 ÷ 2.1

(v) 5.4 ÷ 0.6

(vi) 2.197 ÷ 1.3

Solution:



(i) 19.2 ÷ 2.4 = ( 192/10) / ( 24/10 ) = 192/10 × 10/24 = 192/24 = 8

(ii) 4.95 ÷ 0.5 = ( 495/100) / ( 5/10 ) = 495/100 × 10/5 = 495/5 × 10/100 = 99 × 1/10 = 99/10 = 9.9

(iii) 19.11 ÷ 1.3 = ( [19 × 11]/100)/( 13/10 ) = [1911/100] × [10/13]

= 1911/13 × 10/100 = 147 × 1/10 = 147/10 = 14.7

(iv) 0.399 ÷ 2.1 = (399/1000) / (21/10) = 399/1000 × 10/21

= 399/21 × 10/1000

= 19 × 1/100 = 19/100 = 0.19

 (v) 5.4 ÷ 0.6

= (54/10) / (6/10) = 54/10 × 10/6

= 54 / 6 = 9

 (vi) 2.197 ÷ 1.3

= (2197/1000) / (13/10) = 2197/1000 × 10/13

= 169 × 1/100

= 169/100 = 1.69

 

6. Divide 9.55 kg of sweet among 5 children. How much will each child get?

Solution:


Weight of the sweet = 9.55 kg

Weight of sweet for 5 children = 955/100 kg

Weight of sweet for 1 child = (955/100) / 5 = ( 955/100) × 1/5 =( 955 / 5) × 1/100

 = 191/100 = 1.91

Each child will get 1.91 kg sweet.

 

7. A vehicle covers a distance of 76.8 km for 1.2 litre of petrol. How much distance will it cover for one litre of petrol?

Solution:


For 1.2 litre of petrol the distance covered = 76.8 km  = 768 / 10 km

 For 1 litre of petrol distance covered = [ (768 / 10) / 1.2 ] km

= (768 / 10) / (12 / 10) = ( 768 / 10) × (10 / 12)

= (768 / 12) × (10 / 10) = 64 km

For 1 litre of petrol distance covered = 64 km.

 

8. Cost of levelling a land at the rate of ₹ 15.50 sq. ft is ₹ 10,075. Find the area of the land.

Solution:


Cost of levelling the entire land = ₹ 10, 075

Cost of levelling 1 sq. ft = ₹ 15.50

 Area of the land = Cost of levelling the entire land / Cost of levelling 1 sq. ft.

=> (10075 / 15.50) × (100 / 100) = ( 10075 × 100) / (15.50 × 100) = 1007500 / 1550

= 100750 / 155 = 650

 Area of the land = 650 sq.ft.

 

9. The cost of 28 books are ₹ 1506.4. Find the cost of one book.

Solution:


Cost of 28 books = ₹ 1506.4

Cost of 1 book = 1506.4 / 28 = (15064 / 10) / ( 28 / 1) = (15064 / 10) × (1 / 28)

= (1506.4 / 28) × (1 / 10) = 538 × ( 1 / 10 ) = 538 / 10 = ₹ 53.80

Cost of 1 book = ₹ 53.80

 

10. The product of two numbers is 40.376. One number is 14.42. Find the other number.

Solution:


Product of two numbers = 40.376

 One number = 14.42

Another number = 40376 / 14.42 = (40376 / 1000) / ( 1442 / 100)

= (40376 / 1000) × (100 / 1442) = ( 40376 / 1442) × (100 / 1000)

 = 28 × (1 /10) = 28 / 10 = 2.8

Other number = 2.8
