I Remember and Understand We use multiplication to find the value of many units of an item from the value of a single unit. We use division to find the value of a single unit of an item from the value of many units. We can also find the value of the different number of units by following these two steps. Step 1: Find the value of a single unit of an item from the value of the given units using division to obtain the same. Step 2: Using the value obtained in Step 1, find the value of many units using multiplication. 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: The cost of 1 eraser = ` 36 ÷ 12 The method of finding = ` 3 the value of one unit and Step 2: The cost of 18 erasers = 18 × ` 3 then finding the value of = ` 54 many units is called the Unitary Method. Therefore, 18 erasers cost ` 54. Example 2: Three pens cost ` 39. How much does a dozen pens cost? Solution: The cost of 3 pens = ` 39 Step 1: The cost of 1 pen = ` 39 ÷ 3 = ` 13 Step 2: 1 dozen = 12 items The cost of a dozen pens = Cost of 12 pens = ` 13 × 12 =` 156 Therefore, a dozen pens costs ` 156. Example 3: The cost of 25 notebooks is ` 525. How many notebooks can be bought for ` 1575? Solution: The cost of 25 notebooks = ` 525 The cost of 1 notebook = ` 525 ÷ 25 = ` 21 Money 47
The amount with which notebooks are to be bought = ` 1575 The number of notebooks that can be bought = Total amount ÷ Cost of each notebook = ` 1575 ÷ ` 21 = 75 Therefore, 75 notebooks can be bought for ` 1575. ? Train My Brain Solve these: a) The cost of 12 mangoes is ` 360. Find the cost of 6 mangoes. b) The cost of 15 caps is ` 450. Find the cost of 3 caps. c) The cost of 20 chairs is ` 4000. Find the cost of 25 chairs. I Apply The unitary method can be used to compare two or more items. Consider these examples. Example 4: 4 people spend ` 640 to travel by bus to a hill station. If each ticket is the same price, how much would 8 people spend? Solution: Money spent by 4 people = ` 640 Money spent by 1 person = ` 640 ÷ 4 = ` 160 Number of people travelling now = 8 Money spent by 8 people on the same trip = ` 160 × 8 = ` 1280 Therefore, 8 people spend ` 1280 to take the same trip. Example 5: Roshan bought 15 kg of onions for ` 375. He has ` 800 with him. Can he buy 35 kg of onions? Solution: The cost of 15 kg of onions = ` 375 The cost of 1 kg of onions = ` 375 ÷ 15 = ` 25 The cost of 35 kg of onions = ` 25 × 35 = ` 875 Roshan has ` 800 with him. As the total cost of 35 kg of onions is ` 875, he does not have enough money to buy 35 kg of onions. 48
I Explore (H.O.T.S.) We can use the unitary method to find who has more or less amount or which item purchased is more or less expensive. Example 6: 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 a lesser amount? Solution: Weight of 4 soaps, each of 150 g = 150 g × 4 = 600 g The cost of 4 soaps = ` 60 The 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 The cost of 6 soaps = ` 54 The 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. Example 7: A set of eight plastic sharpeners costs ` 48.80. A set of six steel sharpeners costs ` 48.60. Which set of sharpeners is expensive? Solution: The cost of 8 plastic sharpeners = ` 48.80 ` 6.10 ` 8.10 The cost of 1 plastic sharpener = ` 48.80 ÷ 8 The cost of 6 steel sharpeners = ` 48.60 ) )8 ` 48.80 6 ` 48.60 The cost of 1 steel sharpener = ` 48.60 ÷ 6 Since ` 8.10 > ` 6.10, the set of steel − 48 − 48 sharpeners is expensive. 8 6 −8 −6 0 0 −0 −0 00 Money 49
Example 8: The cost of 17 kg of guavas is ` 552.50. 32.50 Solution: What is the cost of 10 kg of guavas? The cost of 17 kg of guavas = ` 552.50 )17 552.50 − 51 The cost of 1 kg of guavas = ` 552.50 ÷ 17 42 = ` 32.50 − 34 The cost of 10 kg of guavas = ` 32.50 × 10 85 = ` 325 − 85 00 Therefore, 10 kg of guavas cost ` 325. − 00 00 Maths Munchies The currency note of ` 10000 is the highest denomination RBI has printed in its history. ` 1000 and ` 10000 notes were in circulation between 1938 and 1946 but were eventually demonetised. ` 1000, ` 5000 and ` 10000 notes were reintroduced in 1954 and demonetised in 1978.

11Chapter Decimals I Will Learn About • conversion of fractions to decimals and vice versa. • pictorial representation of decimals. • the place value chart and the expanded forms of decimals. • types of decimal fractions. • compare and order decimal numbers. 11.1 Introduction to Decimals I Think Pooja and her friends participated in the long jump event in their games period. Her sports teacher noted the distance they jumped, Pooja – 4.1 m on a piece of paper as shown here. Ravi – 2.85 m Rajiv – 3.05 m Pooja wondered why the numbers had a point between them as Amit – 2.50 m in the case of writing money. Do you know what the point means? I Recall We have already learnt about equivalent fraction in earlier chapters. Let us recall the concepts by solving following problems. a) Find the equivalent fraction of 3 with 24 as the numerator. 4 52
b) Find two equivalent fractions of 7 . 10 c) Find the equivalent fraction of 3 with 100 as the denominator. 10 d) Find the equivalent fraction of 4 with 80 as the numerator. 5 e) Find the equivalent fraction of 21 with 100 as the denominator. 25 I Remember and Understand We have already learnt about fractions. Decimals are fractions with denominators 10, 100, 1000... expressed without denominator. Let us learn more about decimals. Conversion of fractions to decimals Look at the given figure. We can write the coloured portion of the figure as 3 . As 10 this fraction has 10 as denominator, this number can be expressed as 0.3 in decimals. Similarly, the uncoloured part can be expressed in the form of a fraction as 7 and as 10 0.7 in decimal form. Numbers such as 0.3, 0.7, 3.0, 3.1, 4.7, 58.2 and so on are called decimal numbers or simply decimals. In case of improper fractions with 10, 100, 1000 and so on as denominators, we convert them to mixed fractions and then write the fraction part in mixed fraction as decimal after the point. The whole number is placed before the point. For example, 13 = 1 3 = 1.3 10 10 Consider the following example. Example 1: Convert the following proper fractions into their decimal forms. a) 4 b) 73 c) 9 d) 23 10 100 100 1000 Solution: To write the given fractions as decimals, follow these steps: Step 1: Write the numerator. Step 2: Count number of ‘0’s in the denominator. If the number of 0s are more than number of digits in the numerator, then put 0s to the left of the number to make the count of digits equal to the number of 0s. Place the decimal point to the left. Decimals 53
Step 3: Place a ‘0’ to the left of the decimal point. a) 0.4 b) 0.73 c) 0.09 d) 0.023 Example 2: Express these improper and mixed fractions as decimals. 43 a) 18 2 b) 10 c) 26 1 d) 4 9 10 10 10 Solution: To write the given fractions as decimals, follow these steps: Step 1: Convert improper fraction into mixed fractions. Step 2: Write the integral part as it is. Step 3: Place a point to its right. Step 4: Write the decimal form of the proper fraction part. a) 18 2 = 18.2 b) 43 = 4.3 10 10 c) 26 1 = 26.1 d) 49 = 4.9 10 10 Note:This method is used only when the denominators of the fractions are 10, 100, 1000 and so on. Shortcut method: To write fractions with denominators 10, 100 or 1000 as decimals, follow these steps: Step 1: Write the numerator. Step 2: Then count the number of zeros in the denominator. Step 3: Place the decimal point after the same number of digits from the right as the number of zeros. For example, the decimal form of 232 = 2.32 100 Note: F or the decimal equivalent of a proper fraction, place a 0 as the integral part of the decimal number. Pictorial representation We can represent the decimals pictorially as follows. 2 tenth=s =2 0.2 10 5 tenth=s =5 0.5 10 54
8 tenth=s =8 0.8 10 10 tenth=s 1=0 1 10 The rectangle given is divided into ten parts of the same size. Then, each of the ten equal parts is 1 . It is read as one-tenth. The decimal form of each equal part is 0.1. 10 The numbers in the decimal part are read as separate digits. We read numbers such as 0.1, 0.2, 0.3,….as ‘zero point one’, ‘zero point two’, ‘zero point three’ and so on. Zero is written to indicate the place of the whole number. The fractional form of each equal 1 part is 10 . We get the first place after the decimal point by dividing the number by 10. It is called the tenths place (t). 1 hundredths = 1 9 hundredths = 9 33 hundredths = 33 100 100 100 = 0.01 = 0.09 = 0.33 57 hundredths 100 hundredths 57 = 0.57 100 = 1 100 100 We get the second place after the decimal point by dividing the number by 100. It is called the hundredths place (h). Similarly, we get the third place after the decimal point by dividing the number by 1000. It is called the thousandths place (th). Decimals 55
Equivalent decimals 4 tenths = 40 hundredths 0.4 0.40 The numbers after the decimal point have the same value. Hence, these decimals are called equivalent decimals. Thus, we can say that writing zeroes to the right of the final number after the decimal point does not change the value of the number. Example 3: Find two equivalent decimals of the following numbers. a) 0.7 b) 4.61 c) 20.41 d) 98.22 Solution: The two equivalent decimals of numbers are: a) 0.7 = 0.70, 0.700 b) 4.61 = 4.610, 4.6100 c) 20.41 = 20.410, 20.4100 d) 98.22 = 98.220, 98.2200 Place value chart for decimals Similar to the place value chart for numbers, we have a place value chart for decimals too. Let us recall the place value chart of numbers. 100 × 10 10 × 10 1 × 10 1 Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones 6 2 5 5 3 2 2 6 5 2 After the decimal point, as we move from left to right, the value of a digit becomes 1 times. The place value of the digit becomes one-tenth, read as a tenth. Its value 10 56
is 0.1 read as ‘zero point one’. Similarly, when we move one place to the right from one-tenth, we get one-hundredth ( 1 ), and then one-thousandth ( 1 ). 100 1000 We can extend the place value chart to the right as follows: Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones Decimal Tenths Hundredths Thousandths point 1000 100 10 1 (.) 1 1 13196 10 100 1000 1 4 26 . 0 3 8 The number 1426.038 is read as one thousand four hundred twenty-six point zero three eight. The point placed between the number is called the decimal point. The system of writing numbers using a decimal point is called the decimal system. Note: ‘Deci’ in Latin language means 10. Expansion of decimal numbers Using the place value chart, we can expand decimal numbers. Let us see a few examples. Example 4: Expand the following numbers. a) 13.457 b) 450.72 c) 2153.068 Solution: To expand the given decimal numbers, let us write them in the place value chart. Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones Decimal Tenths Hundredths Thousandths point 1 11 1000 100 10 1 ( . ) 10 100 1000 a) 13 . 4 5 7 b) 4 50 . 7 2 c) 2 1 53 . 0 6 8 Expansions: 11 1 a) 13.457 = 1 × 10 + 3 × 1 + 4 × 10 + 5 × 100 + 7 × 1000 Decimals 57
b) 450.72 = 4 × 100 + 5 × 10 + 7 × 1 + 2 × 1 10 100 11 c) 2153.068 = 2 × 1000 + 1 × 100 + 5 × 10 + 3 × 1 + 6 × 100 + 8 × 1000 Conversion of decimals to fractions To convert a decimal into a fraction, follow these steps: Step 1: Write the number without the decimal. Step 2: Count the number of decimal places (that is, the number of places to the right of the decimal number). Step 3: Write the denominator with 1 followed by as many zeros as the number of digits after the decimal point. Example 5: Write these decimals as fractions. a) 2.3 b) 13.107 c) 105.43 d) 0.52 Solution: 23 13107 a) 2.3 = 10 b) 13.107 = 1000 10543 52 c) 105.43 = 100 d) 0.52 = 100 Alternate method: Decimals having an integral part can be written as mixed fractions. For example, 2.3 = 2 and 3 tenths = 23 ; 10 13.107 = 13 and 107 thousandths = 13 107 ; 1000 105.43 = 105 and 43 hundredths = 105 43 and so on. 100 ?

I Recall We have learnt to convert fractions to decimals. Let us quickly revise by converting the following fractions to decimals. a) 2 b) 71 c) 81 d) 321 e) 56 1000 100 100 1000 100 I Remember and Understand Let us learn about equivalent decimals, like decimals and unlike decimals. Decimal places: The digits in the decimal part are called decimal places. For example, 4109.34 has two decimal places; 1183.6 has only one decimal place. Equivalent decimals: The decimal numbers which have equal value are called equivalent decimals. For example, 0.3, 0.30, 0.300 are equivalent decimals. Like decimals: The decimal numbers that have the same number of decimal places are called like decimals. For example, a) 2.81, 35.94, 7.32, 145.67, 214.07 and b) 0.362, 51.093, 22.678, 8091.221, 1.003 are all like decimals. Unlike decimals: The decimal numbers that have different number of decimal places are called unlike decimals. For example, 1) Adding any number of a) 5.11, 89.018, 3.4, 671.92 0s to the right side of the b) 59.009, 231.8, 9.05, 12.25 are all unlike decimals. decimal point does not Example 11: Which is the greater of the given change its value. 2) Unlike decimals can be decimals? converted to like decimals a) 69.2 and 69.02 by adding zeros at the b) 77.10 and 77.012 right end. c) 3.5631 and 3.61 Solution: a) 69.2 and 69.02 To compare two decimals, follow these steps: 62
Step 1: Convert the given decimal numbers into like decimals. Step 2: 69.20, 69.02 Step 3: Compare their integral parts. The decimal with the greater integral part is greater. Here, 69 = 69 If the integral parts are the same, then we have to compare the tenths digits. The decimal with the greater digit in the tenths place is greater. If the tenths digits are also the same, compare the hundredths digits and so on. 69.20 69.02 6=6 9=9 2>0 Therefore, 69.20 > 69.02. Note: Always start comparing from the largest place value in the integral part. b) 77.10 and 77.012 Step 1: Convert the unlike decimals into like decimals: 77.10 = 77.100 Step 2: Compare the integral parts: 77 = 77 Step 3: Compare the tenths digits: 1 > 0 Therefore, 77.10 > 77.012. c) 3.5631 and 3.61 Step 1: Convert the unlike decimals into like decimals: 3.61 = 3.6100 Step 2: Compare their integral parts: 3 = 3 Step 3: Compare the tenths digits: 5 < 6 Therefore, 3.5631 < 3.6100. Example 12: Which is the smaller of each of the given pairs of decimal numbers? a) 367.80 and 362.801 b) 21.673 and 21.673 c) 11.729 and 11.726 Decimals 63
Solution: a) 367.80 and 362.801 Converting the unlike decimals into like decimals: 367.80 = 367.800 Comparing their integral parts, 367 > 362 Therefore, 362.801 is smaller. b) 21.673 and 21.673 The given decimals are like decimals. Compare their integral parts: 21 = 21 Compare: Tenths digits: 6 = 6, Hundredths digits: 7 = 7 Thousandths digits: 3 = 3 Therefore, 21.673 = 21.673. c) 11.729 and 11.726 Given decimals are like decimals. Comparing their integral parts: 11 = 11 Compare: Tenths digits: 7 = 7 Hundredths digits: 2 = 2 Thousandths digits: 9 > 6 Therefore, 11.726 is smaller. Comparing decimal numbers helps us in arranging them in ascending and descending orders. Let us see a few examples. Example 13: Arrange the following decimal numbers in the ascending order. a) 2.1, 2.01, 3.06, 0.831 b) 15.12, 19.18, 26.7, 1.007 c) 37.502, 36.512, 67.3, 22 Solution: a) 2.1, 2.01, 3.06, 0.831 Express the unlike decimals as like decimals. 2.100, 2.010, 3.060, and 0.831 0.831 < 2.010 < 2.100 < 3.060 Therefore, the ascending order is 0.831, 2.01, 2.1, 3.06. b) 15.12, 19.18, 26.7, 1.007 64
Express the unlike decimals as like decimals. 15.120,19.180, 26.700 and 1.007 1.007 < 15.120 < 19.180 < 26.700 Therefore, the ascending order is 1.007, 15.12, 19.18, 26.7. c) 37.502, 36.512, 67.3, 22 Express the unlike decimals as like decimals. 37.502, 36.512, 67.300 and 22.000 22.000 < 36.512 < 37.502 < 67.300 Therefore, the ascending order is 22, 36.512, 37.502, 67.3. Example 14: Arrange these decimal numbers in the descending order. a) 43.25, 43.2, 43.21, 43.127 b) 63.901, 63.09, 63.009, 6.39 c) 11.2, 11.028, 1.127, 13.02 Solution: a) 43.25, 43.2, 43.21, 43.127 Express the unlike decimals as like decimals 43.250, 43.200, 43.210, 43.127 43.250 > 43.210 > 43.200 > 43.127 Therefore, the descending order is 43.25, 43.21, 43.2, 43.127. b) 63.901, 63.09, 63.009, 6.39 Express the unlike decimals as like decimals 63.901, 63.090, 63.009, 6.390 63.901 > 63.090 > 63.009 > 6.390 Therefore, the descending order is 63.901, 63.09, 63.009, and 6.39. c) 11.2, 11.028, 1.127, 13.02 Express the unlike decimals as like decimals 11.200, 11.028,1.127, 13.020 13.020 > 11.200 > 11.028 > 1.127 Therefore, the descending order is 13.02, 11.2, 11.028, 1.127.

Step 2: Shift the decimal point to the right by as many digits as the number of zeros in the multiplier. 76
Therefore, a) 3.4567 × 10 = 34.567 (The decimal point is shifted to the right by one digit as the multiplier is 10 which has one zero.) b) 3.4567 × 100 = 345.67 (The decimal point is shifted to the right by two digits as the multiplier is 100 which has two zeros.) c) 3.4567 × 1000 = 3456.7 (The decimal point is shifted to the right by three digits as the multiplier is 1000 which has three zeros.) Multiply a decimal number by another decimal number Multiplication of a decimal number by another decimal number is similar to the multiplication of a decimal number by a number. Let us understand this through an example. Example 12: Solve: 7.12 × 3.7 Solution: Multiply the given numbers as When two decimal numbers are Step1: usual without considering the multiplied, decimal point. a) count the total number of digits 1 after decimal point in both the 7 12 numbers. Say it is ‘n’. × 37 11 b) multiply the two decimal 4 9 84 numbers as usual and place the +2 1 3 6 0 decimal point in the product after 26 3 44 ‘n’ digits from the right. Step 2: Count the number of decimal places in both the multiplicand and the multiplier and add them. The number of decimal places in 7.12 is two. The number of decimal places in 3.7 is one. Total number of decimal places = 2 + 1 = 3 Step 3: Count as many digits in the product from the right as the total number of decimal places. Then place the decimal point. Therefore, 7.12 × 3.7 is 26.344. Sometimes, the number of digits in the product is less than the sum of the number of decimal places in the multiplicand and the multiplier. In such cases, place zeros to the immediate right of the decimal point in the product such that the number of decimal places is equal to the sum of the decimal places in the multiplicand and the multiplier.

14Chapter Measurement I Will Learn About • the relation between different units of length, weight and capacity. • converting larger units to smaller units and vice versa. • applying the four operations in solving problems involving length, weight and capacity. • computing the area and perimeter of simple geometrical shapes. 14.1 Conversion of Units of Measurement I Think Pooja uses 17.5 cm of wool to make a friendship bracelet. How can Pooja find out how much wool she will need to make 3 such friendship bracelets? I Recall We know the standard units of length are cm, m and km. The standard units of weight are mg, g and kg. Similarly, the standard units of capacity are mℓ, ℓ and kℓ. We can convert one unit of measurement into another using the relation between them, i.e., 1 m = 100 cm 1 cm = 10 mm 1 g = 1000 mg 1 ℓ = 1000 mℓ 1 km = 1000 m 1 m = 1000 mm 1 kg = 1000 g 1 kℓ = 1000 ℓ To convert measures from a larger unit to a smaller unit, we multiply. To convert measures from a smaller unit to a larger unit, we divide. 90
Let us solve the following to recall the concept. a) Convert 4 kg 200 g into g. b) Convert 3 ℓ 194 mℓ into mℓ. c) Convert 4716 g into kg and g. d) Convert 6295 m into km and m. I Remember and Understand Let us understand the conversions of units through a few examples. Example 1: Convert the following: a) 1800 mg into g b) 4 km 460 m into km c) 5 ℓ 70 mℓ into ℓ d) 82.3 m into mm e) 24.339 kg into kg and g Solution: Solved Solve these a) 1800 mg into g 3640 g into kg 1 g = 1000 mg Therefore, 1800 mg = 1800 g = 1.800 g. 1000 b) 4 km 460 m into km 11 kℓ 420 ℓ into kℓ 1 km = 1000 m Therefore, 460 m = 460 km = 0.46 km. 1000 4 km 460 m = 4 km + 0.46 km = 4.46 km c) 5 ℓ 70 mℓ into ℓ 8 kg 19 g into kg 1 ℓ = 1000 mℓ Therefore, 70 mℓ = 70 ℓ = 0.07 ℓ. 1000 5 ℓ 70 mℓ = 5 ℓ + 0.07 ℓ = 5.07 ℓ d) 82.3 m into mm 7.35 kℓ into ℓ 1 m = 1000 mm Therefore, 82.3 m = 82.3 × 1000 mm = 82300 mm e) 24.339 kg into kg and g 6.029 km into km and m 1 kg = 1000 g Therefore, 24.339 kg = 24 kg + 0.339 kg = 24 kg + 0.339 × 1000 g = 24 kg 339g Measurement 91
Example 2: Compare the given measures using <, > or =. One has been done for you. a) 65 ℓ > 64490 mℓ b) 1500 g ______ 1 kg For comparing c) 3.22 m ______ 322 cm d) 2202 m ______ 2.2 km two different units of measurement, e) 7190 mg ______ 7.09 g f) 8.45 kℓ ______ 8450 ℓ first convert them into the same ? Train My Brain unit. Answer the following: a) Convert 3.289 kg into kg and g. b) Convert 2983 mℓ into ℓ. c) Convert 7 m 9 cm into m. I Apply We can apply different operations on length, weight or volume just as we do with numbers. Example 3: Solve the following: a) Add 42.628 g and 67.453 g. b) Subtract 62.142 mℓ from 85.033 mℓ. c) Multiply 254 m by 14 and covert into km. d) Divide 6129 cm by 3 and convert into mm. Solution: Solved Solve these a) Add 42.628 g + 67.453 g Add 59.302 ℓ and 32.158 ℓ. 11 1 4 2.628 + 6 7.453 1 1 0.081 Therefore, 42.628 g + 67.453 g = 110.081 g. 92
Solved Solve these Subtract 9.318 km from 35.294 km. b) 85.033 mℓ – 62.142 mℓ 9 3 2 Multiply 41.8 kg by 26. 4 1/0 13 /0 3/ 1 8 5/ . 14 –62 . 89 22 . Therefore, 85.033 mℓ – 62.142 mℓ = 22.891 mℓ. c) 254 m × 14 21 2 54 × 14 1 0 16 +2 5 40 3 5 56 Therefore, 254 m × 14 = 3556 m 1 km = 1000 m Therefore, 3556 m = 3556 km = 3.556 km 1000 d) 6129 cm ÷ 3 Divide 208 cm by 4. 2043 )3 6129 − 6↓ 01 − 00 012 − 12 09 − 09 00 Therefore, 6129 cm ÷ 3 = 2043 cm 1 cm = 10 mm Therefore, 2043 × 10 = 20430 mm Measurement 93
I Explore (H.O.T.S.) Let us see a few real-life examples of operations on the units of measurement. Example 4: Sakshi buys 72.39 kg flour every month for her bakery. How much flour does she buy in a year? Solution: Quantity of flour bought by Sakshi every month = 72.39 kg Number of months in a year = 12 Quantity of flour bought by Sakshi in a year = 72.39 kg × 12 = 868.68 kg Therefore, Sakshi buys 868.68 kg flour in a year. Example 5: Lohit has a piece of wood of length 117 m. He wants to cut it into 3 pieces of the same length. How long would each piece be in centimetres? Solution: Length of the piece of wood that Lohit has = 117 m Number of equal pieces Lohit wants to cut the wood into = 3 Length of each piece of wood = 117 m ÷ 3 = 39 m = 3900 cm Therefore, each piece of wood would be 3900 cm long. 14.2 Area and Perimeter I Think Pooja wanted to cut some handkerchiefs of different shapes from a piece of cloth. She also wanted to attach lace to their edges on all sides. But she did not know how much cloth she needed. She also wanted to know what length of lace is required. How do you think she can find the length of the cloth and the length of the lace needed for the same? I Recall Recall that perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square, we add the lengths of all its four sides. The units of perimeter of a shape is the same as the units of the lengths of its sides. 94
Area of a shape is the amount of surface or region covered by it. The area of a shape is expressed in square units (the unit of length of the side of the shape). Area of a rectangle = length × breadth = ℓ × b sq. units Area of a square = side × side = s × s sq. units Let us solve the following to recall the concept. Find the perimeter and area of each of the given shapes. a) 5 cm b) 8 cm 4 cm c) 5 cm 5 cm 7 cm I Remember and Understand We know that the perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. We can also calculate it for shapes other than a square and a rectangle. Let us see a few examples. Example 6: Find the perimeter of each of the given shapes. 5 cm 6 cm a) 4.5 cm b) 3 cm 3 cm 2 cm 5.5 cm 3 cm 3 cm 3 cm 6 cm Solution: a) Perimeter = Sum of all the sides = (5 + 5.5 + 3 + 2 + 4.5) cm = 20 cm b) Perimeter = Sum of all the sides = (6 + 3 + 3 + 6 + 3 + 3) cm = 24 cm Example 7: Find the perimeter and area of each of the given figures if the side of each square is 1 cm. Measurement 95
a) b) c) Solution: a) Perimeter of the given figure = (2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 3) cm = 24 cm Side of each square = 1 cm So, its area = 1 × 1 sq. cm = 1 sq. cm. The number of squares coloured = 16 Therefore, the area of the given figure is 16 sq. cm. b) Perimeter of the given figure = (4 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 4) cm = 22 cm The number of squares coloured = 26 The area of each square of side 1 cm = 1 sq. cm. Therefore, the area of the given figure is 26 sq. cm. c) Perimeter of the given figure = (6 + 5 + 6 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 1) cm = 34 cm The number of squares coloured = 22 The area of each square of side 1 cm = 1 sq. cm. Therefore, the area of the given figure is 22 sq. cm. Area of a triangle Observe the triangles formed in these figures. The diagonal of a rectangle or a square divides it into two equal triangles. Thus, the surface or region covered by the triangle formed 1 cm = 1 of the total region covered by the rectangle or square. 1 cm 2 Therefore, the area of a triangle formed from a rectangle 1 = 2 × the area of the rectangle 96
