Question 1

Arrange the following rational number in descending order \frac{17}{-30},\frac{11}{-15},\frac{-7}{10},\frac{3}{5}.

Accepted Answer

Rational numbers can be arranged in descendingall ascending order by making their denominates equal.Therefore, LCM of 30, 15, 10 and 5 is 30.So,   \frac{-17}{30} = \frac{-17}{30}; \frac{-7}{10}= \frac{21}{30}  \frac{-11}{15} = \frac{-22}{30} ; \frac{3}{5} = \frac{18}{30} so, in descending order   \rightarrow   \frac{18}{30}> \frac{-17}{30}> \frac{-21}{30}> \frac{-22}{30}  = \frac{3}{5}> \frac{-17}{30} > \frac{-7}{10}> \frac{-11}{15}

Question 2

I bought one dozen bananas and ate five of them.What fraction of the total number of bananas was left?

Accepted Answer

Number of bananas bough =1 Dozen =12 Number of bananas eaten by me =5 Number of bananas left  =12-5=7 Fraction =\dfrac{7}{12}

Question 3

In the given number line, point M represents which of the following fractional numbers?

Accepted Answer

Point m is at  1.2  on the number line.And  \dfrac{6}{5}  corresponds to  1.2 Hence the correct answer is option B

Question 4

Represent the following number on the number line: \dfrac {2}{7}

Accepted Answer

We need to find the position of the number 2/7 on the number line.Steps of making the number:1. Draw a number line between  -1  and  1 .2.Each interval of the number line is divided into  7  parts.3. Marked the numbers on the number line are  -1,...,-2/7, -1/7, 0, 1/7, 2/7,..., 1 The number  \dfrac{2}{7}  is less than  1  and more than  0 . Now, mark the point  \dfrac{2}{7}  by A.

Question 5

State whether the following statements are true  \left(T\right)  or false  \left(F\right) : Every fraction can be represented by a point on a number line.

Accepted Answer

True.Every fraction can be represented by a point on a number line.

Question 6

What fraction on the number line below is in the wrong place?

Accepted Answer

\dfrac 1 8  is a smaller value than  \dfrac1 4 .So  \dfrac 18  should be mentioned on the left of  \dfrac 14. So, we can conclude that  \dfrac 1 8  is in the wrong place. So option B is the correct answer.

Question 7

Represent  \dfrac {5}{3}  and  -\dfrac {5}{3}  on the number line

Accepted Answer

Draw an integer line representing  -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 .Divide each unit into three equal parts to the right and left sides of zero respectively. Take five parts out of these. The fifth point on the right of zero represents  \dfrac {5}{3}  and the fifth one to the left of zero represents  \dfrac {-5}{3} .

Question 8

Question 9

Represent  \dfrac{-5}{6}  on the number line.

Accepted Answer

The number can be represented on the number line by moving in the negative direction on the number line and dividing each point in  \dfrac{1}{6}  and stop at  5^{th}  point

Question 10
