POINTS TO REMEMBER

  1. Decimal fraction (or a decimal number)
    A decimal fraction is a fraction whose denominator is 10 or a higher power of 10.
    In order to express a given decimal fraction in shorter form, the denominator is not written but its absence is shown by a dot which is called a decimal point inserted in a proper place.
    Note :
    (i) When there is no number is the left of the decimal point, generally, a zero is written.
    (ii) Generally, a decimal fraction has two parts, the first part which is on the right ox the decimal point is called decimal part and the part on the left side of the decimal point, is called integeral part.
    (iii) The decimal part is always less than 1.
  2. Reading Decimal Numbers
    The integral part is read according to its value and the decimal part is read by naming each digit, in order, separately
  3. Converting a decimal number into a vulgar fraction :
    Remove the decimal point from the decimal number and write in its denominator with as many zeros as the number of digits are in the decimal parts to the right of 1.
    In the decimal number, the name of each place is given as under is the place value chart:

    ThousandsHundredsTensUnitsTenthsHundredthsThousandth
        Decimal point  and so on
  4. Converting a given fraction in to a decimal fraction :
    (a) When the denominator in given fraction is 10. 100, 1000 etc., then count from extreme right to left, mark decimal point after as many digits of the numerator as there are zeroes in the denominator.
    (b) When the denominator of the given number is other then 10 or higher power of 10, then divide in an ordinary way and mark the decimal point in the quotient just after the division of unit digit is completed. After this, any number of zeroes can be borrowed to.complete the division.
    Note : The number of figures that follow the decimal part is called the number of decimal places.
  5. Addition and Subtraction of decimal numbers.
    (a) Addition : Write the given decimal numbers in such a way, that the decimal points of all the numbers fall in the same vertical line. Digits with the same place value are placed one below the other units are written below units, tens below tens and so on.
    Addition is started from the right side, as done in the usual addition (empty places may be filled up by zeroes). In the result (total), the decimal point is placed under decimal points of the numbers added.
    (b) Subtraction : In subtraction also, the numbers are written in such a way that their decimals are in ihe same vertical line. Digits with the same place value are placed one below the other (empty places may be filled by zeroes).
    Subtraction is started from the right side, as in the case of normal subtraction. In the result, decimal point is placed just under the other decimal points.
  6. Multiplication of decimal numbers :
    (1) Multiplication by 10,100, 1000 etc. shift the decimal point, in the multiplicand, to the right by as many digits as there are zeroes in the multiplier.
    (2) Multiplication by a whole number : Multiply in an ordinary way, without considering the decimal point. In the product, the decimal point should be fixed by counting as many digits from the right as there are decimal places in the multiplicand.
    Thus, (i) 0.3 x 6 = 1.8 (ii) 0.26 x 18 = 4.68 and so on.
    (3) Multiplication of a decimal number by another decimal number :
    Multiply the two numbers in a normal way, ignoring their decimals. In the product, decimal point is fixed counting from right, the digits equal to the sum of decimal places in the multiplicand and the multiplier.
    Thus, 32.5 x ().()7 = 2.275
    Since, the multiplicand (32.5) has one decimal place and multiplier (0.07) has two decimal places, their product will have 1+2 = 3 decimal places.
  7. Division of decimal numbers :
    (1) Division by 10, 100, 1000 etc : Shift the decimal points to the left as many digits as there are
    zeroes in the divisor. .
    (2) Division by a whole number : Divide in the normal manner, ignoring the decimal, and mark tire decimal point; in the quotient, while just crossing over the decimal point in the dividend.
  8. Recurring Decimals :
    On performing a division, sometimes we find that the same remainder is left, no matter how long we continue the division process. For this reason, the same digit appeares again and again in the quotient. This fact is shown by puting a dot as a bar over the repeating digits.
  9. Rounding off of decimal numbers :
    (i) If the answer required is correct to two decimal places, we retain digits upto three decimal places.
    (ii) If the digit in the third decimal place is five or more than five, then the digit in the second decimal place is increased by one and, if the digit in the third decimal place is less than five, then the digit in the second decimal place is not altered.
    (iii)The third digit which was retained is now omitted.
    Thus, for getting 8.4813 correct to two decimal places.
    Write the given number upto three decimal places i.e. 8.481.
    Since, the digit in the third decimal place is 1 which is less than 5.
    ∴The digit in the second decimal place is not altered.
    And, so 8.4813 = 8.48, correct to two decimal places.
    In the same way, to get 3.946824 correct to nearest thousandths i.e., correct to three decimal places, first write it as 3.9468.
    Then according to the rule, the digit in the third place changes from 6 to 7.
    3.9468 = 3.947, correct to three decimal places.

Question 5.
Divide each of the given numbers by 10, 100, 1000 and 10000
(i) 2.1
(ii) 8.64
(iii) 5-01
(iv) 0.0906
(v) 0.125
(vi) 111.11
(vii) 0.848 x 3
(viii)4.906 x (0.2) ²
(ix) (1.2)² x(0.9)²

Answer:

(i) 2.1 ÷ 10 = 0.21, 2.1 ÷ 100 = 0.021,
2.1 ÷ 1000 = 0.0021
and 2.1 ÷10000 = 0.00021

(ii) 8.64 ÷ 10 = 0-864, 8.64 ÷ 100 = 0-0864,
8.64 ÷ 1000 = 0-00864
and 8.64 ÷ 10000 = 0.000864

(iii)5.01 ÷ 10 = 0.501,
5.01 ÷ 100 = 0.0501,
5.01 ÷1000 = 0.00501,
5.01 ÷ 10000 = 0.000501

(iv) 0.0906 ÷ 10 = 0.00906,
0.0906 ÷ 100 = 0.000906,
0.0906 ÷ 1000 = 0.0090906,
0.0906 ÷ 10000 = 0.00000906

(v) 0.125
Now 0.125 + 10 = 0.0125,
0.125 ÷ 100 = 0-00125,
0.125 ÷1000 = 0.000125,
0.125 ÷ 10000 = 0.0000125

(vi) 111.11÷ 10= 11.111,
111.11÷ 100 = 1.1111,
111.11 ÷ 1000 = 0.11111,
111.11 ÷ 10000 = 0.011111

(vii) 0.848 x 3 = 2.544 ,
Now 2.544 ÷ 10 = 0.2544,
2.544 ÷ 100 = 0-02544,
2-544 ÷ 1000 = 0-002544,
2-544 ÷ 10000 = 0-0002544

(viii) 4.906 x (0.2)² = 4.906 x 0.2 x 0.2
= 4.906 x 0.04 = 0.19624
Now 0.19624 + 10 = 0.019624,
0.19624 + 100 = 0.0019624,
0.19624 + 1000 = 0.00019624,
0.19624 + 10000 = 0.000019624

(ix) (1.2)² x (0.9)² = 1.2 x 1.2 x 0.9 x 0.9 = 1.44 x 0.81 = 1.1664
Now 1 .1664 + 10 = 0.11664,
1.1664 ÷ 100 = 0.011664,
1.1664 ÷ 1000 = 0.0011664,
1.1664 ÷ 10000 = 0.00011664

Question 6.
Evaluate :
(i) 9.75 + 5

(Sum of decimal places 1 + 1=2)

(ii) (0.6)2 x 0.5
⇒ 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.5
⇒ 0.36 x 0.5 = 0.180 or 0.18
(Sum of decimal places = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3)

(iii) 0.3 x (0.5)2
⇒ 0.3 x 0.5 x 0.5
⇒ 0.3 x 0.25 = 0.075
(Sum of decimal places 1 + 1 + 1 = 3)
(iv) (0.4)3
⇒ 0.4 x 0.4 x 0.4
⇒ 0.16 x 0.4 = 0.064
(Sum of decimal places 1 + 1 + 1 = 3)

(v) (0.2)3 x 5
⇒ 0.2 x 0.2 x 0.2 x 5
⇒ 0.08 x 5 = 0.40 or 0.4
(Sum of decimal places 1 + 1 + 1 = 3)

(vi) (0.2)3 x 0.05
