Who has more money? To find this we need, to compare the decimal numbers 15.50 and 15.75. To do this, we first compare the digits, on the left of the decimal point, starting from the leftmost digit. Here both the digits 1 and, 5, to the left of the decimal point, are same. So we compare the digits on the right of the, decimal point starting from the tenths place. We find that 5 < 7, so we say, 15.50 < 15.75. Thus, Salma has more money than John., If the digits at the tenths place are also same then compare the digits at the hundredths, place and so on., Now compare quickly, 35.63 and 35.67; 20.1 and 20.01; 19.36 and 29.36., While converting lower units of money, length and weight, to their higher units, we are, required to use decimals.

Certainly it would be ` (8.50 × 1.50). Both 8.5 and 1.5 are decimal numbers., So, we have come across a situation where we need to know how to multiply two decimals. Let us now learn the multiplication of two decimal numbers., First we find 0.1 × 0.1., 1, 1×1, 1, 1 1, ×, . So, 0.1 × 0.1 =, =, =, = 0.01., 10, 10 10 10 ×10 100, , no, tt, , 48, , Now, 0.1 =, , Let us see it’s pictorial representation (Fig 2.13), The fraction, , 1, represents 1 part out of 10 equal parts., 10, , The shaded part in the picture represents, , 1, ., 10, , We know that,, , 1 1, 1, 1, ×, means, of, . So, divide this, 10 10, 10, 10, 1 th, part into 10 equal parts and take one part, 10, out of it., , 2020-21, , Fig 2.13

FRACTIONS AND DECIMALS, , Thus, we have, (Fig 2.14)., , be NC, re ER, pu T, bl, is, he, d, , Fig 2.14, , The dotted square is one part out of 10 of the, 1 1, ×, or 0.1 × 0.1., 10 10, , 1 th, part. That is, it represents, 10, , We have, 0.2 × 0.3 =, As we did for, , no, tt, , o, , ©, , Can the dotted square be represented in some other way?, How many small squares do you find in Fig 2.14?, There are 100 small squares. So the dotted square represents one out of 100 or 0.01., Hence, 0.1 × 0.1 = 0.01., Note that 0.1 occurs two times in the product. In 0.1 there is one digit to the right of, the decimal point. In 0.01 there are two digits (i.e., 1 + 1) to the right of the decimal point., Let us now find 0.2 × 0.3., 2 3, ×, 10 10, , 1 1, × , let us divide the square into 10, 10 10, , 3, . Again, 10, divide each of these three equal parts into 10 equal parts and, , equal parts and take three parts out of it, to get, , take two from each. We get, , 2 3, × ., 10 10, , 2 3, ×, or 0.2 × 0.3. (Fig 2.15), 10 10, Since there are 6 dotted squares out of 100, so they also, reprsent 0.06., , The dotted squares represent, , 2020-21, , Fig 2.15, , 49

50, , MATHEMATICS, , Thus, 0.2 × 0.3 = 0.06., Observe that 2 × 3 = 6 and the number of digits to the right of the decimal point in, 0.06 is 2 (= 1 + 1)., Check whether this applies to 0.1 × 0.1 also., Find 0.2 × 0.4 by applying these observations., While finding 0.1 × 0.1 and 0.2 × 0.3, you might have noticed that first we, multiplied them as whole numbers ignoring the decimal point. In 0.1 × 0.1, we found, 01 × 01 or 1 × 1. Similarly in 0.2 × 0.3 we found 02 × 03 or 2 × 3., , be NC, re ER, pu T, bl, is, he, d, , Then, we counted the number of digits starting from the rightmost digit and moved, towards left. We then put the decimal point there. The number of digits to be counted, is obtained by adding the number of digits to the right of the decimal point in the, decimal numbers that are being multiplied., Let us now find 1.2 × 2.5., , Multiply 12 and 25. We get 300. Both, in 1.2 and 2.5, there is 1 digit to the right, of the decimal point. So, count 1 + 1 = 2 digits from the rightmost digit (i.e., 0) in 300, and move towards left. We get 3.00 or 3., Find in a similar way 1.5 × 1.6, 2.4 × 4.2., , ©, , While multiplying 2.5 and 1.25, you will first multiply 25 and 125. For placing the, decimal in the product obtained, you will count 1 + 2 = 3 (Why?) digits starting from, the rightmost digit. Thus, 2.5 × 1.25 = 3.225, , no, tt, , TRY THESE, , o, , Find 2.7 × 1.35., , (iii) 2.3 × 4.35, 1. Find:, (i) 2.7 × 4, (ii) 1.8 × 1.2, 2. Arrange the products obtained in (1) in descending order., , EXAMPLE 7 The side of an equilateral triangle is 3.5 cm. Find its perimeter., SOLUTION, , All the sides of an equilateral triangle are equal., , So, length of each side = 3.5 cm, Thus, perimeter = 3 × 3.5 cm = 10.5 cm, , EXAMPLE 8 The length of a rectangle is 7.1 cm and its breadth is 2.5 cm. What, is the area of the rectangle?, , SOLUTION, , Length of the rectangle = 7.1 cm, , Breadth of the rectangle = 2.5 cm, Therefore, area of the rectangle = 7.1 × 2.5 cm2 = 17.75 cm2, , 2020-21

In 31.5 and 0.315 the, digits are same, but what about the decimal point in the quotient?, It has shifted to the left by two places. Note that 100 has two zeros over1., So we can say that, while dividing a number by 10, 100 or 1000, the digits of the, number and the quotient are same but the decimal point in the quotient shifts to the, left by as many places as there are zeros over 1.

A vehicle covers a distance of 43.2 km in 2.4 litres of petrol. How much distance will, it cover in one litre of petrol?, , WHAT, , HAVE, , WE DISCUSSED?, , 1. We have learnt about fractions and decimals alongwith the operations of addition and, subtraction on them, in the earlier class., 2. We now study the operations of multiplication and division on fractions as well as on, decimals., 3. We have learnt how to multiply fractions. Two fractions are multiplied by multiplying, their numerators and denominators seperately and writing the product as, product of numerators, 2 5 2 × 5 10, =, . For example, × =, ., product of denominators, 3 7 3× 7 21, , 4. A fraction acts as an operator ‘of ’. For example,, , 2020-21, , 1, 1, of 2 is × 2 = 1., 2, 2, , 55

MATHEMATICS, , 5. (a) The product of two proper fractions is less than each of the fractions that are, multiplied., (b) The product of a proper and an improper fraction is less than the improper, fraction and greater than the proper fraction., (c) The product of two imporper fractions is greater than the two fractions., 6. A reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by inverting it upside down., 7. We have seen how to divide two fractions., (a) While dividing a whole number by a fraction, we multiply the whole number, with the reciprocal of that fraction., 3, 5, , 5 10, 3 3, , For example, 2 ÷ = 2 × =, , be NC, re ER, pu T, bl, is, he, d, , (b) While dividing a fraction by a whole number we multiply the fraction by the, reciprocal of the whole number., For example,, , 2, 2 1 2, ÷7= × =, 3, 3 7 21, , (c) While dividing one fraction by another fraction, we multuiply the first fraction by, the reciprocal of the other. So,, , 2 5 2 7 14, ÷ = × = ., 3 7 3 5 15, , o, , ©, , 8. We also learnt how to multiply two decimal numbers. While multiplying two decimal, numbers, first multiply them as whole numbers. Count the number of digits to the right, of the decimal point in both the decimal numbers. Add the number of digits counted., Put the decimal point in the product by counting the digits from its rightmost place., The count should be the sum obtained earlier., For example, 0.5 × 0.7 = 0.35, 9. To multiply a decimal number by 10, 100 or 1000, we move the decimal point in the, number to the right by as many places as there are zeros over 1., Thus 0.53 × 10 = 5.3, 0.53 × 100 = 53, 0.53 × 1000 = 530, 10. We have seen how to divide decimal numbers., (a) To divide a decimal number by a whole number, we first divide them as whole, numbers. Then place the decimal point in the quotient as in the decimal number., , no, tt, , 56, , For example, 8.4 ÷ 4 = 2.1, Note that here we consider only those divisions in which the remainder is zero., (b) To divide a decimal number by 10, 100 or 1000, shift the digits in the decimal, number to the left by as many places as there are zeros over 1, to get the, quotient., So, 23.9 ÷ 10 = 2.39,23.9 ÷ 100 = 0 .239, 23.9 ÷ 1000 = 0.0239, (c) While dividing two decimal numbers, first shift the decimal point to the right by, equal number of places in both, to convert the divisor to a whole number. Then, divide. Thus, 2.4 ÷ 0.2 = 24 ÷ 2 = 12., , 2020-21
