& Remembering and Understanding Let us now understand the addition and subtraction of time through some examples. While adding time, we add the minutes (smaller units) first and then the hours (larger units). Sometimes, we may have to regroup the sum of the minutes. If the sum of minutes is 60, we convert it to 1 hour and add it to the hours. Let us see an example. Example 10: Add: 1 hour 35 minutes and 2 hours 45 minutes Solution: Steps Solved Solve these Step 1: Write both the numbers one Hours Minutes below the other. 1 35 +2 45 Step 2: Add hours and minutes Hours Minutes Hours Minutes separately, regrouping if needed. 1 35 1 20 +2 45 +3 50 3 80 Step 3: Check whether the minutes 80 minutes > 60 minutes Hours Minutes in the sum is greater than or equal to 60. If yes, then convert it into 2 30 hours. Step 4: Add the hours obtained 3 hours 80 minutes +2 20 in step 3 to the hours obtained in step 2. 1 60+ 20 4 hours 20 minutes The sum is 4 hours 20 minutes. While subtracting, we subtract the minutes first (smaller units) and then the hours (larger units). Sometimes, we may have to regroup the hours. Let us see an example.

Example 11: Subtract: 2 hours 35 minutes from 3 hours 10 minutes Solution: Steps Solved Solve these Step 1: Write both the numbers one below the other, such that Hours Minutes Hours Minutes the smaller number is subtracted 3 45 from the larger one. 3 10 1 20 –2 35 – Step 2: Subtract hours and 10 minutes < 35 minutes. So, minutes separately, regrouping if borrow 1 hour, that is, 60 needed. minutes and add it to the minutes. (10 + 60 = 70) Hours Minutes Step 3: Reduce the hours by Hours Minutes – 4 20 1 and subtract the minutes as – 2 40 usual. 2 70 –2 35 35 Step 4: Subtract the hours and Hours Minutes Hours Minutes write the difference. 5 30 2 70 3 35 –2 35 0 35 The difference is 35 min. Example 12: Subtract 4 h 42 min from 380 min. Solution: We first convert 380 min to hours and minutes. Hours Minutes 1 5 80 380 min = (300 × 60 h) + 80 min = 5 h 80 min –4 42 1 38 Therefore, the difference is 1 h 38 min. 8 2/17/2018 4:21:59 PM NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 52
Application Now let us solve a few examples where the addition and subtraction of time are mostly used. Example 13: A courier boy delivered letters for 2 hours 35 minutes and parcels for 3 hours 28 minutes in a day. For how long was he on the job? Solution: Time spent in delivering letters = 2 h 35 min Hours Minutes Time spent in delivering parcels = 3 h 28 min Total time spent on the job = 2 35 2 h 35 min + 3 h 28 min = 5 h 63 min +3 28 5 63 63 > 60 63 min = 1 h 3 min Therefore, the total time spent on job = (5 h + 1 h) + 3 min = 6 h 3 min. Example 14: On Saturday, Rima’s drawing class lasted for 2 hours 20 minutes, while on Sunday, it lasted for 1 hour 40 minutes. How much longer was the drawing class on Saturday? Solution: To find how much longer the drawing class on Saturday was, we must subtract 1 hour 40 minutes from 2 hours 20 minutes. Hours Minutes 2 h 20 min can be written as 1 h 80 min by regrouping. 1 80 So, on Saturday, Rima’s drawing class lasted 40 minutes – 1 40 longer. 0 40 Higher Order Thinking Skills (H.O.T.S.) Now let us solve a few more examples involving addition and subtraction of time. Example 15: Mr. Roy spends 1 hour 30 minutes in his garden every day. Mr. Pavan does the same for 50 minutes. How much more time does Mr. Roy spend than Mr. Pavan in his garden? Give your answer in seconds. Solution: Time spent by Mr. Roy in his garden = 1 hour 30 minutes Time spent by Mr. Pavan in his garden = 50 minutes To find the required, subtract 50 minutes from 1 hour 30 minutes. Time 9 NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 53 2/17/2018 4:21:59 PM
Now, we need to find the answer in seconds. Hours Minutes 1 minute = 60 seconds 1 30 40 minutes = 40 × 60 seconds = 2400 seconds Therefore, Mr. Roy spends 2400 seconds more in his –0 50 0 40 garden. Example 16: Sohan started preparing for his exam from 16th July. The exams were scheduled to begin 25 days later. On which date were the exams scheduled to begin? Solution: Start date of exam preparation = 16th July Preparation day for exams includes 16th July. So, subtract 15 days from 31 days of July. Number of days of preparation in July = 31 – 15 = 16 Days of preparation left in the month of August = 25 – 16 = 9 Therefore, the date when the exam begins is 10th August.

& Remembering and Understanding We use multiplication to find the value of many units from the value of a single unit. We use division to find the value of a single unit from the value of many units. We can also find the value of different number of units by following these two steps. Step 1: Find the value of a single unit from the value of the given units. Use division to obtain the same. Step 2: Using the value obtained in Step 1, find the value of many units. We need to use multiplication for the same. The method of finding the value of one unit and then finding the value of many units is called the Unitary Method. Let us now see a few examples to understand the unitary method better. Example 1: The cost of 12 erasers is ` 36. What is the cost of 18 erasers? Solution: The cost of 12 erasers = ` 36 Step 1: Cost of 1 eraser = ` 36 ÷ 12 =`3 Step 2: Cost of 18 erasers = 18 × ` 3 = ` 54 Therefore, 18 erasers cost ` 54. Example 2: Three pens cost ` 39. Find the cost of a dozen pens. Solution: Cost of 3 pens = ` 39 Step 1: Cost of 1 pen = ` 39 ÷ 3 = ` 13 Step 2: 1 dozen = 12 items Cost of a dozen pens = Cost of 12 pens = ` 13 × 12 = ` 156 Therefore, a dozen pens cost ` 156.

Example 3: The cost of 25 notebooks is ` 525. How many notebooks can be bought for ` 1575? Solution: Cost of 25 notebooks = ` 525 Cost of 1 notebook = ` 525 ÷ 25 = ` 21 Amount with which notebooks are to be bought = ` 1575 Number of notebooks that can be bought = Total amount ÷ Cost of each notebook = ` 1575 ÷ ` 21 = 75 Therefore, 75 notebooks can be bought. Application The unitary method can be used to compare two or more items. Consider these examples. Example 4: Mona observed that a pack of four soaps, each of 150 g, costs ` 60. Another pack of six soaps, each of 100 g costs ` 54. Which pack should Mona buy so that she spends lesser amount of money? Solution: Weight of 4 soaps, each of 150 g = 150 g × 4 = 600 g Cost of 4 soaps = ` 60 Cost of 1 g of soap = 60 ÷ 600 = ` 1 = 1 × 100 paise = 10 paise 10 10 Weight of 6 soaps, each of 100 g = 100 g × 6 = 600 g Cost of 6 soaps = ` 54 So, cost of 1 g soap = 54 ÷ 600 = ` 9 = 9 × 100 paise = 9 paise 100 100 Since 9 paise < 10 paise, Mona has to buy the pack of 6 soaps of 100 g each to spend a lesser amount of money. 14 2/17/2018 4:21:59 PM NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 58

Solution: What is the cost of 10 kg of guavas? 32.50 Cost of 17 kg of guavas = ` 552.50 )17 552.50 - 51 Cost of 1 kg of guavas = ` 552.50 ÷ 17 42 = ` 32.50 - 34 Cost of 10 kg of guavas = ` 32.50 × 10 85 = ` 325 - 85 Therefore, 10 kg of guavas cost ` 325. 00 - 00 00 Higher Order Thinking Skills (H.O.T.S.) Different countries of the world have different currencies. We see a chart in banks called the chart of exchange rates. It shows the money (in rupees) that we get in exchange for the money of other countries. Observe the chart given below. This gives the exchange rates as on 23rd January 2017. Country Currency Indian Rupees U.S.A. Dollar 68.12 England Pound 84.98 China Yuan 9.94 Sri Lanka Rupee (SL) 0.46 U.A.E.

Let us see a few examples on the exchange of money using this chart. Example 7: Rita’s aunt from the U.S. gifted her 15 US dollars. Rita used ` 300 for her dress from that amount. How much money was left with her? Give your answer in rupees. (Hint: 1 US dollar = ` 64.14, as of December 19, 2017) Solution: 1 US dollar = ` 64.14 15 US dollars = ` 64.14 × 15 = ` 962.1 Amount Rita spent for her dress = ` 300 Amount left with Rita = ` 962.1 – ` 300 = ` 662.1 Therefore, Rita has ` 662.1 left with her. Example 8: Ravi works for a Sri Lankan company for a salary of 1000 SL (Sri Lankan Rupees). Suresh works for a company in China for a salary of 1200 yuans. Who earns more in terms of Indian currency? (Hint: 1 SL = ` 0.42 and 1 yuan = ` 9.69 ) Solution: We know that 1 Sri Lankan Rupee = ` 0.42 1000 Sri Lanka Rupees = ` 0.42 × 1000 = ` 420 Also, 1 Chinese yuan = ` 9.69 1200 yuans = 1200 × ` 9.69 = ` 11628 As, ` 11628 > ` 420, Suresh earns more than Ravi.

Chapter Fractions - I 9 Let Us Learn About • e quivalent fractions and cross- multiplying equivalent fractions. • finding the missing numerators or denominators in the fractions. • reducing fractions using division and H.C.F. • the term 'unlike fraction' and comparing unlike fractions. • a dding and subtracting unlike fractions. Concept 9.1: Equivalence of Fractions Think Pooja eats two pieces of a cake that was cut into four equal pieces. Farhan eats three pieces of cake of the same size that was cut into six equal pieces. Do they eat the same amount of cake? Recall In Class 4, we have learnt about equivalent fractions. Let us revise them here. Suppose a pizza is cut as shown. Rohan eats 2 of the pizza. Then the piece of pizza he gets 8 is = . 18 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 62
Suraj eats 1 of the pizza. Then the piece of pizza he gets is . 4 We see that the pieces of pizza eaten by both are of the same size. So, we say that the fractions 2 and 1 are equivalent. 84 21 We write them as 8 = 4 . Recall the following: • The multiples of a number are obtained by multiplying it by 1, 2, 3 and so on. For example, the multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36 and so on. • The numbers that divide a given number exactly are called its factors. For example, the factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3 and 6. • Equivalent fractions are obtained by multiplying or dividing the numerator and the denominator of the given fraction by the same number. For example, 1 , 3 , 5 , 2 and so on, are equivalent fractions. 7 21 35 14 & Remembering and Understanding Fractions that denote the same part of a whole are called equivalent fractions. Let us now understand the process used to check the equivalence of the given fractions. Cross-multiplication: To check if two fractions are equivalent, we cross multiply them. In cross-multiplication, we multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second. Then, we multiply the denominator of the first by the numerator of the second. If the cross products are equal, the given fractions are equivalent. Otherwise, they are not equivalent. Example 1: Check if these fractions are equivalent. a) 3 and 9 b) 1 and 2 5 15 36 Solution: a) 3 and 9 5 15 Fractions - I 19 NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 63 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM
Cross-multiplying, we get 39 5 15 T he cross products are 5 × 9 = 45 and 3 × 15 = 45. Since the cross products are equal; the given fractions are equivalent. b) 1 and 2 36 Cross-multiplying, we get 12 36 T he cross products are 1 × 6 = 6 and 3 × 2 = 6. Since the cross products are equal, the given fractions are equivalent. Example 2: Check if these fractions are equivalent. a) 1 and 2 b) 3 and 9 4 10 9 18 Solution: a) 1 and 2 4 10 Cross-multiplying, we get 12 4 10 T he cross products are 1 × 10 = 10 and 4 × 2 = 8. Since the cross products are not equal (10 ≠ 8), the given fractions are not equivalent. b) 3 and 9 9 18 Cross-multiplying, we get 39 9 18 T he cross products are 3 × 18 = 54 and 9 × 9 = 81. Since the cross products are not equal (54 ≠ 81), the given fractions are not equivalent. Application Let us solve a few examples based on the concept of equivalence of fractions. Example 3: Kiran played for 1 of a day and did his homework for 3 of the day. Did he 5 15 spend the same amount of time for both the activities? 20 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 64
Solution: If Kiran spent the same amount of time for both the activities, the given fractions must be equivalent. We check the equivalence of fractions by cross-multiplication. 13 5 15 1 × 15 = 5 × 3 = 15 Example 4: As the cross products are equal, the given fractions are equivalent. Solution: Therefore, Kiran spent the same amount of time for both the activities. Clock A shows 2 of an hour and Clock B shows 3 of an hour. Are both the 12 15 clocks showing the same time? If both the clocks are showing the same time, the given fractions must be equivalent. We check the equivalence of fractions by cross-multiplication. 23 12 15 2 × 15 = 30; 12 × 3 = 36 As the cross products are not equal, the given fractions are not equivalent. Therefore, both the clocks are not showing the same time. Higher Order Thinking Skills (H.O.T.S.) Let us now solve some examples where equivalent fractions are used in real-life situations. Example 5: If the given fractions are equivalent, find the missing numerators in the brackets. Solution: a) 15 = [ ] b) [ ] = 3 25 5 49 7 Given that the fractions are equivalent, we know that their cross products are equal. a) 15 × 5 = 25 × [ ] 3 × 5 × 5 = 25 × [ ] 3 × 25 = 25 × [ ] 3 = [ ] Therefore, the missing number in the brackets is 3.

b) [ ] × 7 = 49 × 3 [ ] × 7 = 7 × 7 × 3 [ ] × 7 = 7 × 21 [ ] = 21 Therefore, the missing number in the brackets is 21. Example 6: If the given fractions are equivalent, find the missing denominators in the brackets. a) 14 = 7 18 = 9 28 [ ] b) [] 27 Solution: As the fractions are equivalent, their cross products are equal. a) 14 × [ ] = 28 × 7 14 × [ ] = 2 × 14 × 7 14 × [ ] = 14 × 2 × 7 [ ] = 2 × 7 [ ] = 14 Therefore, the missing number in the brackets is 14. b) 18 × 27 = [ ] × 9 9 × 2 × 27 = [ ] × 9 [ ] × 9 = 9 × 54 [ ] = 54 Therefore, the missing number in the brackets is 54.

Recall In the chapter on division, we have learnt how to find factors of a number. We also learnt to find the H.C.F. of the given numbers. Let us solve the following to recall the concept of H.C.F. Find the H.C.F. of these numbers. a) 36, 48 b) 26, 65 c) 16, 48 d) 20, 60 e) 11, 44 & Remembering and Understanding We have seen that 1 , 2 , 7 , 10 … are all equivalent fractions. However, the fraction 1 is 3 6 21 30 3 said to be in the lowest terms. It is because its numerator and denominator do not have any common factors other than 1. A fraction can be reduced to its lowest terms using either division or H.C.F. Reducing a fraction using division Example 7: Reduce the following fractions to their lowest terms. a) 36 b) 26 48 65 Solution: a) 36 = 36 ÷ 2 = 18 ÷ 2 = 9 ÷ 3 = 3 48 48 ÷ 2 24 ÷ 2 12 ÷ 3 4 Therefore, when reduced to its lowest terms, 36 becomes 3 . 48 4 b) 26 = 26 ÷13 = 22 65 65 ÷13 55 Therefore, when reduced to its lowest terms, 26 becomes 2 . 65 5 Reducing a fraction using H.C.F. We use the concept of H.C.F. to reduce a fraction to its lowest terms. Example 8: Reduce the following fractions to their lowest terms. a) 36 b) 26 48 65 Solution: a) Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36 Factors of 48: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 Fractions - I 23 NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 67 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM
Common factors of 36 and 48: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 The H.C.F. of 36 and 48 is 12. 36 = 36 ÷12 = 3 48 48 ÷12 4 Therefore, when reduced to its lowest terms, 36 becomes 3 . 48 4 b) Factors of 26: 1, 2, 13, 26 Factors of 65: 1, 5, 13, 65 Common factors of 26 and 65: 1, 13 The H.C.F. of 26 and 65 is 13. 26 = 26 ÷13 = 2 65 65 ÷13 5 Therefore, when reduced to its lowest terms, 26 be26co÷m13e=s 2 . 65 65 ÷13 5 Application Let us solve a few real-life examples that involve reducing fractions to their lowest terms. Example 9: Jai ate 4 of a watermelon and Vijay ate 16 of another watermelon of the 16 32 same size. Did they eat the same quantity of watermelon? If not, who ate Solution: more? Fraction of watermelon Jai ate = 4 16 Fraction of watermelon Vijay ate = 16 32 To compare the fractions, we must reduce them to their lowest terms so that we get like fractions. 4 4÷4 1 [H.C.F. of 4 and 16 is 4.] 16 = 16 ÷ 4 = 4 16 = 16 ÷ 8 = 2 [Using division method] 32 32 ÷ 8 4 Clearly, 1 < 2. So, 1 < 2 . 44 Therefore, Vijay ate more. Example 10: Suraj and Puja were painting the walls of their room. Suraj painted 21 of the 35 wall in an hour and Puja painted 24 of the wall in the same time. Who is more efficient? 30 24 NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 68 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM
Solution: Part of the wall painted by Suraj in an hour = 21 = 3 35 5 (H.C.F. of 21 and 35 is 7.) Part of the wall painted by Puja in an hour = 24 = 4 30 5 (H.C.F. of 24 and 30 is 5.) Example 11: Clearly, 4 is greater than 3 . Solution: 55 Therefore, Puja does more work than Suraj in the same time. So, Puja is more efficient. Malik saves ` 550 from his monthly salary of ` 5500. Akhil saves ` 300 from his monthly salary of ` 4500. What fraction of their salary did each of them save? Fraction of salary saved by Malik = 550 = 550 ÷ 10 = 55 ÷ 55 = 1 5500 5500 ÷ 10 550 ÷ 55 10 Fraction of salary saved by Akhil = 300 = 300 ÷ 100 = 3 ÷ 3 = 1 4500 4500 ÷ 100 45 ÷ 3 15 Therefore, Malik saved 1 of his salary and Akhil saved 1 of his salary. 10 15 Higher Order Thinking Skills (H.O.T.S.) Let us see a few more examples on reducing fractions to their lowest terms. Example 12: A circular disc is divided into equal parts. Some parts of the circular disc are painted in different colours as shown in the figure. Write the fraction of each colour in its lowest terms. Solution: Total number of equal parts on the disc is 16. The number of parts painted yellow is 3. Fraction = Number of parts painted yellow = 3 Total number of equal parts 16 (The numerator and the denominator do not have any common factor other than 1. So, the fraction cannot be reduced any further.)

So, the fraction cannot be reduced any further.) Example 13: Meena used 250 g sugar for a pudding of 1000 g. What is the fraction of sugar in the pudding? Solution: Quantity of sugar = 250 g Quantity of pudding = 1000 g Fraction of sugar in the pudding = 250 = 250 ÷ 10 = 25 ÷ 25 = 1 1000 1000 ÷ 10 100 ÷ 25 4 Therefore, sugar forms 1 of the weight of the pudding. 4 Concept 9.3: Compare Unlike Fractions Think Pooja has two circular discs coloured in green, red and white as shown. She wants to know if the parts coloured in red and green are the same. Do you know how Pooja can find it? Recall In class 4, we have learnt what like and unlike fractions are. Let us recall the same. Fractions such as 1 , 2 and 3 that have the same denominator are called like fractions. 88 8 26 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 70
Fractions such as 1 , 3 and 3 , that have different denominators are called unlike fractions. 87 11 Let us answer the following to recall like and unlike fractions. Identify the like and unlike fractions from the following: a) 3 , 3 , 1 , 5 , 6 , 1 , 4 b) 2, 1 , 1, 7 , 5, 4 c) 5 , 4 , 7 , 5 , 11 , 3 7 5 7 7 7 4 11 22 22 12 14 15 22 15 15 26 24 15 15 & Remembering and Understanding We know how to compare like fractions. To compare two or more fractions, their denominators should be the same. Let us now learn to compare unlike fractions. Steps to compare unlike fractions: 1) Find the L.C.M. of the denominators of the given unlike fractions. Using L.C.M, convert the given unlike fractions into equivalent fractions having the same denominator. 2) Compare their numerators and find which is greater than the other. The fraction with the greater numerator is greater. Example 14: Compare these unlike fractions. a) 3 , 4 b) 3 , 1 c) 1 , 3 7 11 57 48 Solution: Solved Solve these Steps 3, 4 3, 1 1, 3 7 11 57 48 Step 1: Write like fractions L.C.M. of 7 and 11 is 77. equivalent to the given So, the equivalent fractions, using the least fractions are common multiple of their 3 = 3 ×11 = 33 and denominators. 7 7 ×11 77 4 = 4 × 7 = 28 . Step 2: Compare their 11 11× 7 77 numerators and find which is greater or lesser. 33 > 28 So, 33 > 28 . 77 77 Thus, 3 > 4 . 5 11 Fractions - I 27 NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 71 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM
Example 15: Compare these unlike fractions. a) 1 , 2 b) 5 , 1 c) 1 , 6 24 63 4 12 Solution: a) 1 , 2 24 The L.C.M. of 2 and 4 is 4. So, equivalent fraction of 1 = 1×2 = 2 2 2×2 4 Since the numerators are equal, 2 = 2 44 Therefore, the given fractions are equal. b) 5 , 1 63 The L.C.M. of 6 and 3 is 6. So, 1 = 1×2 = 2. 3 3×2 6 Since 5 > 2, 5 > 2 . 66 Therefore, 5 > 1 . 63 c) 1 , 6 4 12 The L.C.M. of 4 and 12 is 12. So, 1= 1×3 = 3. 4 4×3 12 Since 3 < 6, 3 < 6 . 12 12 Therefore, 1 < 6 . 4 12 Application Let us see some real-life situations where we compare unlike fractions. Example 16: Esha ate 1 of an apple in the morning and 2 of the apple in the evening. 43 When did she eat a larger part of the apple? 28 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 72
Solution: Fraction of the apple Esha ate in the morning = 1 4 Fraction of the apple she ate in the evening = 2 Step 1: 3 To find when she ate a larger part we must compare the two fractions. Write like fractions equivalent to 1 and 2 with the least common multiple of 4 4 3 and 3 as their denominator. The least common multiple of 4 and 3 is 12. So, the required like fractions are: Step 2: 1 = 1×3 3 and 2 = 2×4 =8 4 4×3 = 12 3 3×4 12 Compare the numerators of the equivalent fractions. Example 17: Since 8 > 3, 8 > 3 . 12 12 Hence, 2 > 1 . 34 Clearly, Esha ate the larger part of the apple in the evening. Kumar saves 1 of his salary and Pavan saves 2 of his salary. If they earn the 46 same amount every month, then who saves a lesser amount? Solution: To find who saves lesser, we must find the lesser of the given fractions. The L.C.M. of 4 and 6 is 12. Equivalent fractions of 1 and 2 are 3 and 4 . 4 6 12 12 Since 3 < 4, 3 < 4 . 12 12 Hence, 1 < 2 . 46 Therefore, Kumar saves lesser amount than Pavan. Higher Order Thinking Skills (H.O.T.S.) Let us see a few more examples using comparison of unlike fractions.

Solution: 2 9 2 7 Clearly, the part of the figure represented by 2 is greater than that 7 represented by 2 . Hence, 2 is greater than 2 . 97 9 Let us try to arrange some unlike fractions in the ascending and descending orders. Example 19: Arrange 2 , 1 , 2 , 3 and 1 in the ascending order. 3254 6 Solution: Write equivalent fractions of the given unlike fractions. The L.C.M. of the denominators 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 is 60. So, the fractions equivalent to 2 , 1 , 2 , 3 and 1 with the L.C.M. as their 3254 6 denominator will be: 2 = 2× 20 = 40 1 = 1× 30 = 30 , 2 = 2 ×12 = 24 , 3 = 3 ×15 = 45 3 3× 20 60 , 2 2× 30 60 5 5 ×12 60 4 4 ×15 60 and 1 = 1×10 = 10 . 6 6×10 60 Comparing the numerators, 10 < 24 < 30 < 40 < 45. So, 10 < 24 < 30 < 40 < 45 . 60 60 60 60 60 Therefore, the required ascending order is 1 , 2 , 1 , 2 , 3 . 65234 Example 20: Arrange 2 , 1 , 1 , 5 , and 3 in the descending order. 7 4 8 14 16 Solution: Write equivalent fractions of the given unlike fractions. The L.C.M. of the denominators 7, 4, 8, 14 and 16 is 112. So, the fractions equivalent to 2 , 1 , 1 , 5 , and 3 with the L.C.M. as the 7 4 8 14 16 denominator will be: 2 2×16 32 1 1× 28 28 1 1×14 14 5 5× 8 40 7 = 7×16 = 112 , 4 = 4× 28 = 112 , 8 = 8×14 = 112 , 14 = 14× 8 = 112 30 2/17/2018 4:22:00 PM NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 74
and 3 = 3×7 = 21 . 16 16 × 7 112 Comparing the numerators, 40 > 32 > 28 > 21 > 14. 40 32 28 21 14 So, 112 > 112 > 112 > 112 > 112 . Therefore, the required descending order is 5 , 2 , 1 , 3 , 1 . 14 7 4 16 8 Concept 9.4: Add and Subtract Unlike Fractions Think Pooja has a round cardboard with some of its portions coloured. She knows that the fractions that represent the coloured portions are unlike. She wondered how to find the part of the cardboard that is coloured and how much of it is uncoloured. How do you think Pooja can find that? Recall We have already learnt to compare fractions.

How much chocolate did they eat in all? How much chocolate is remaining? Solution: Part of the chocolate eaten by Manasa = 1 4 Part of the chocolate eaten by Manasa’s sister = 2 3 Total chocolate eaten by Manasa and her sister = 1 + 2 43 3 + 8 = 3 + 8 = 11 12 12 12 12 [L.C.M. of 4 and 3 is 12.] Therefore, the part of the chocolate eaten by both Manasa and her n sister = 11 12 Remaining part of the chocolate = 1 – 11 = 12 – 11 = 12 - 11 = 1 12 12 12 12 12 Higher Order Thinking Skills (H.O.T.S.)

Concept 10.2: Multiply Fractions Think Pooja and each of her 15 friends had a bar of chocolate. Each of them ate 5 of the 12 chocolate. How much of the chocolate did they eat in all? How do you think Pooja can find this? Recall Recall that when we find the fraction of a number, we multiply the number by the fraction. After multiplication, we simplify the product to its lowest terms. Similarly, we can multiply a fraction by another fraction too. • Fraction in its lowest terms: A fraction is said to be in its lowest form if its numerator and denominator do not have a common factor other than 1. • Reducing or simplifying fractions: Writing fractions such that its numerator and denominator have no common factor other than 1 is called reducing or simplifying the fraction to its lowest terms. • Methods used to reduce a fraction: A fraction can be reduced to its lowest terms using 1) division 2) H.C.

Example 7: Find the following: a) 23 of 90 b) 15 of 128 45 32 Solution: a) 23 of 90 = 23 × 90 = 23 × 90 = 2070 = 46 45 45 45 45 Multiplying the numbers in the numerator and then dividing is tedious. It is especially so when the numbers are large. Therefore, we shall find if any of the numbers in the numerator and the denominator have a common factor. If yes, we take the H.C.F. of the numbers. We then divide the numbers to reduce the fraction to its lowest terms. Hence, 23 of 90 = 23 × 90. Here, 45 and 90 have common factors, 3, 5, 9, 15 45 45 and 45. The H.C.F. of 45 and 90 is 45. So, divide both 45 and 90 by their H.C.F. Therefore, 23 × 90 = 23 × 90 2 [Cancelling using the H.C.F. of the numbers] 45 45 1 = 23 × 2 = 46 b) 15 of 128 = 15 × 128 32 32 The H.C.F of 32 and 128 is 32. Divide 32 and 128 by 32, and simplify the multiplication. 15 × 128 4 = 15 × 4 = 60 32 1 Multiply fractions by fractions Multiplication of two fractions is simple. If a and c are two fractions where b,d are not equal to zero, b d then a × c = a × c b d b × d Therefore, product of the fractions = Product of numerators Product of denominators To multiply mixed number, we change them into improper fractions and then proceed. Multiplying the numbers in the numerator and then dividing is tedious. It is especially so when the numbers are large. Therefore, we shall check if any of the numbers in the numerator and the denominator have a common factor. We then reduce the fractions into their lowest terms and then multiply them. Let us look at an example to understand the concept. 42 NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 86 2/17/2018 4:22:01 PM
Example 8: Solve: 23 × 15 Solution: 45 46 Follow these steps to multiply the two fractions. Step 1: Check if the numerator and denominator have any common factors. Observing the given fractions, we see that, a) (23, 45) and (15, 46) do not have any common factors to be reduced. b) (23, 46) and (15, 45) have common factors. Step 2: Find the H.C.F. of the numerator and the denominator that have common factors. The H.C.F. of 23 and 46 is 23. The H.C.F. of 15 and 45 is 15. Step 3: Reduce the numerator and the denominator that have common factors using their H.C.F. 1 23 × 1 = 1×1 =1 15 3 45 46 2 3 × 2 6 Therefore, 23 × 15 = 1 .

Pooja got one-third of it. She ate it in parts over a period of four days. If she ate an equal part every day, how much chocolate did Pooja eat in a day? Do you know how to find it? Recall Let us recall the relation between multiplication and division. Multiplication and division are inverse operations. The equation 3 × 8 = 24 has the inverse relationships: 24 ÷ 3 = 8 and 24 ÷ 8 = 3 Similar relationships exist for division. The equation 45 ÷ 9 = 5 has the inverse relationships. 5 × 9 = 45 and 9 × 5 = 45 Let us revise the concept by finding the inverse relationships of the following statements. a) 3 × 4 =12 b) 21÷ 3 = 7 c) 6 × 3 = 18 d) 42 ÷ 7 = 6 & Remembering and Understanding Reciprocal of a fraction A number or a fraction which when multiplied by a given number gives the product as 1 is called the reciprocal or multiplicative inverse of the given number.

To find the reciprocal of a fraction, we interchange its numerator and denominator. • The reciprocal of a number is a fraction. For example, the reciprocal of 20 is 1 . 20 • The reciprocal of a unit fraction is a number, For example, the reciprocal of 1 is 7. 7 • The reciprocal of a proper fraction is an improper fraction. It can be left as it is or converted into a mixed fraction, For example, the reciprocal of 3 is 7 or 2 1 . 7 3 3 • The reciprocal of an improper fraction is a proper fraction, For example, the reciprocal of 9 is 5 . 59 • The reciprocal of a mixed fraction is a proper fraction, For example, the reciprocal of 2 3 is 8 . 8 19 Note: 1) The reciprocal of 1 is 1. 2) The reciprocal of 0 does not exist as division by zero is not defined. 3) N umbers such as 4, 6, 9 and so on are converted into improper fractions by writing them as 4 , 6 , 9 before finding their reciprocals. 111 4) F ractions are reduced to their lowest terms (if possible) before finding their reciprocals. Let us find the reciprocals of some fractions. Example 14: Find the reciprocals of these fractions. a) 8 b) 4 c) 3 d) 4 17 19 11 5 Solution: To find the reciprocal of a fraction, we interchange its numerator and denominator.

The multiplicative inverses of the given fractions are: a) 1 b) 9 c) no multiplicative inverse 5 68 d) 1 e) 3 100 Note: 0 has no reciprocal or multiplicative inverse because we cannot multiply any number by it to get 1. Zero multiplied by any number is zero. Therefore, 0 is the only number that does not have a multiplicative inverse. Application Divide a number by a fraction The division of a number by another means to find the number of divisors present in the 1 dividend. For example, 8 ÷ 4 means to find the number of fours in 8. Similarly, 10 ÷ means to 5 find the number of one-fifths in 10. Let us understand the division by fractions through some examples. 1 b) 75 ÷ 3 Example 16: Divide: a) 15 ÷ 5 3 Solution: Follow these steps to divide the given. a) 15 ÷ 1 Step 1: 3 15 Step 2: Write the number as a fraction as 15 = 1 13 Find the reciprocal of the divisor. The reciprocal of 3 is 1 . Step 3: Multiply the dividend with the reciprocal of the divisor. Step 4: 15 ÷ 1 = 15 × 3 = 45 3 11 1 Step 1: Reduce the product to its lowest terms. 45 = 45 Step 2: 1 Step 3: Therefore, 15 ÷ 1 = 45. 3 b) 75 ÷ 3 5 75 Write the number as a fraction as 75 = 1 Find the reciprocal of the divisor.

Higher Order Thinking Skills (H.O.T.S.) Let us see some real-life examples using division of fractions. Example 19: Sakshi had 7 apples. She cut them into quarters. How many pieces did she get? Solution: To find the number of pieces that Sakshi will get, we must find the number of quarters in 7. That is, we must divide the total number of apples by the size of each piece of apple. Number of quarter pieces = 7 ÷ 1 = 7 × reciprocal of 1 = 7 × 4 = 28 44 Therefore, Sakshi got 28 pieces of apple. Example 20: Nani had 3 of a kilogram of sugar. He poured it equally into 4 bowls. How 5 many grams of sugar is in each bowl? Solution: Total quantity of sugar = 3 kg 5 Number of bowls = 4 Quantity of sugar in each bowl = 3 kg ÷ 4 = 3 kg × reciprocal of 4 55 = 3 kg × 1 3 kg = 3 50 3 × 50 g = 150 g 5 4= 20 × 1000 g = 20 1 Therefore, each bowl contains 150 g of sugar.

Lesson Plants and Environment 6 Let Us Learn About r habitats and habits of plants. u adaptations of plants. a protection of plant environments. h sacred groves. Think Seema planted a lotus plant in her garden and watered it. But it drooped down and dried up within a few days. What can be the reason for this? Remembering Plants can be found almost all over the Earth. They grow on land as well as in water. These places are called their habitats. Let us learn more about the habitats of plants. TERRESTRIAL PLANTS The plants that grow on land are known as terrestrial plants. They grow in different areas like mountains, plains, deserts, swampy areas, coastal areas and so on.

plants on mountains plants in plains plants in deserts plants in swampy areas plants in coastal areas AQUATIC PLANTS Plants that grow in water are called aquatic plants. They are of three kinds – floating, fixed and underwater plants. Floating plants: These plants are found floating freely on water. They are water lettuce not attached to the bottom of the water body. For example, water lettuce, lotus water hyacinth and so on. Fixed plants: These plants have roots that are fixed to the soil at the bottom of the water body. Their leaves and flowers float on the surface of the water to get oxygen from the air and sunlight. They have broad and wax coated leaves. Waxy coating prevents the leaves from rotting due to water. For example, lotus, water lily and so on. Underwater plants: These plants grow completely under the water. They take in carbon dioxide from the water. For example, sea grass, tape grass and so on. Now, let us learn about some habits of plants. Plants also differ according to their sea grass food habits. Plants that make food on their own: Most green plants make their own food. They absorb water and nutrients from the soil with the help of roots. Leaves produce food by combining carbon dioxide and water using energy from sunlight. Plants which depend on other plants: Some plants like cuscuta and sandalwood tree absorb water and nutrients from the roots of other plants. Such plants that depend on other plants for their food are called parasitic plants. cuscuta plant 2 NR_BGM_181910055_Maple G5_Textbook Integrated_Term2_text.pdf 100 2/17/2018 4:22:02 PM
