Preface
‘The essence of mathematics is not to make simple things complicated but to make complicated things simple.’
 —Stan Gudder
Mathematics has always been an integral part of human lives. Everyone uses mathematics in their daily
lives in various ways irrespective of their knowledge of mathematical concepts. The study of mathematics
in the school curriculum has to be essentially focused on the application of mathematical concepts in real
life because mathematics helps cultivate thinking and reasoning skills and build up precise and analytical
verbalisation in learners.
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 recognises the importance of mathematics and mathematical
thinking for India’s future and India’s leadership role in the numerous upcoming fields and professions that
will involve artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science.
The revised edition of MathSight, an Indiannica Learning series of eight textbooks for classes 1 to 8,
conforms to the vision of NEP 2020. Designed based on in-depth feedback from teachers across India, the
series moves smoothly from concrete to abstract and exposes learners to mathematical concepts through
activities and real-life situations.
New to the Revised Edition
• Emphasises art-, technology-, and sport-integrated learning
• Connects mathematics with different subjects
• Encompasses reasoning worksheets to develop interest in competitive assessments such as Olympiads
• Focuses on activity-based learning
• Comprises board games in grades 1 and 2 to learn important skills while having fun
• Incorporates subject enrichment activities for concept clarity
• Summarises the important topics in a nutshell as Concept Map in grades 3 to 8
• Includes critical thinking, life skills, subject integration, coding-decoding, analyse error, assertion–
reason, and comprehension based questions
• Has worksheets based on Bloom’s taxonomy in Practice Section in grades 3 to 8
• Starts each chapter with engaging opener to connect mathematics with different aspects of life
Comprehensive teacher support material with teaching aids facilitates classroom transactions. An easy-to-
use learning app provides student digital support material. It gives instant access to learning and assessment
resources. Each grade has exhaustive teacher’s manuals to guide teachers through each chapter along with
Vedic Maths tricks.
Ample care and thought has been invested in designing the revised edition of MathSight. We hope the series
will surely help learners hone their mathematical skills and abilities as well as a love and passion for the
subject. Suggestions regarding the improvement of this series are always accepted.

1 LARGE NUMBERS

West Bengal concluded its Legislative Assembly elections in May 2021. The elections
were held in 8 phases. About 7 million people voted in phase 1 and 8 million voted in
phase 8. The maximum number of people voted in phase 4, their number was about
12 million. In total, about 73 million people voted in all 8 phases.

Essential Questions
1. Do you know how much is a million?
One million is the same as ten lakh. Million is used in the international number system.
2. What are the numbers 7 million, 8 million, and 73 million called in the Indian number system?
1 million = 10 lakh
7 million = 7 × 10,00,000 = 70,00,000 = 70 lakh
8 million = 8 × 10,00,000 = 80,00,000 = 80 lakh
73 million = 73 × 10,00,000 = 7,30,00,000 = 7 crore 30 lakh

We will be learning about large numbers in both Indian and international number
systems in this chapter.

7- AND 8-DIGIT NUMBERS


Leena and her grandfather went to a community library.
They were told that there are 9,99,999 books in the library.
Grandfather asked Leena, ‘What will happen if one more
book is added?’
Leena quickly added the numbers and got the answer.
However she did not know what to call that number.

TL L TTh Th H T O
1 1 1 1 1
9 9 9 9 9 9 Largest 6-digit number

1 0 0 0 0 0 0 Smallest 7-digit number

2 Large Numbers
Leena’s grandfather told her that it is read as ten lakh.
If we start from 10,00,000 and proceed further, we will reach 99,99,999.
If we add 1 to 99,99,999, we will get 1,00,00,000. It is read as one crore.
C TL L TTh Th H T O

9-DIGIT NUMBERS
Leena wondered if there were numbers beyond 8 digits. Her grandfather told her to write
the largest 8-digit number and add 1 to it.
Largest number of 8-digits = 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9
+ 1
1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 = Smallest 9-digit number

The number 10,00,00,000 is the smallest 9-digit number. It is read as ten crore. Likewise,
we can make so many numbers with so many digits.

SUBJECT INTEGRATION Evolution of Hindu-Arabic numerals


Brahmi, 1st century
The digits, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9,
that we use today are called ‘Hindu-
Arabic numerals’. But these digits Indian (Gwalior), 9th century

were not like as we use them today.


They originated in India in the 6th or West Arabic (Gobar), 11th century East Arabic, 11th century Sanskrit Devanagari, Indian,
7th century and were later introduced 11th century

to Europe through Middle Eastern 15th century


mathematicians. The chart given
alongside shows the evolution of these
digits. 16th century

INDIAN PLACE VALUE SYSTEM


Look at the place value chart given below. This is the place value chart for Indian place
value system. The chart has been divided into four groups. Each group is called a period.
So there are four periods in this place value chart—ones, thousands, lakhs, and crores—
from right to left.
Crores Lakhs Thousands Ones
Ten
Ten crores Crores Ten lakhs Lakhs thousands Thousands Hundreds Tens Ones
(TC) (C) (TL) (L) (TTh) (Th) (H) (T) (O)
10,00,00,000 1,00,00,000 10,00,000 1,00,000 10,000 1000 100 10 1

Large Numbers 3
Marking the Periods in Indian Place Value System
• The first period (3 digits)—ones period—has places for ones (O), tens (T), and hundreds (H).
• The second period (2 digits)—thousands period—has places for thousands (Th) and ten
thousands (TTh).
• The third period (2 digits)—lakhs period—has places for lakhs (L) and ten lakhs (TL).
• The fourth period—crores period—has places for crores (C), ten crores (TC), and so on.

Essential Question
Why do we need to mark the periods in a number?
1. It helps in reading and writing large numbers.
2. Finding place value of a digit in a number is easier.
3. The numbers with marked periods are easy to compare.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
It is important to always mark the periods with a comma when dealing with numbers in banks and
cheques.
We use a place value chart to read and write large numbers. Let us learn to read and write
7- and 8-digit numbers.

Reading 7- and 8-Digit Numbers


Numbers are read from left to right. While reading a number, all the digits under the same
period are read together along with the name of the period (except the ones period).
Example 1 Look at the following chart and write the numbers in words.
Crores Lakhs Thousands Ones
C TL L TTh Th H T O
(a) 5 4 3 2 5 6 7
(b) 9 5 2 3 7 2 1 2

Solution (a) Crores Lakhs Thousands Ones


C TL L TTh Th H T O
5 4 3 2 5 6 7

Fifty-four lakh thirty-two thousand five hundred and sixty-seven

Thus the number 54,32,567 will be written in words as fifty-four lakh thirty-two thousand
five hundred and sixty-seven.
(b) The number 9,52,37,212 will be written in words as nine crore fifty-two lakh thirty-
seven thousand two hundred and twelve.

4 Large Numbers
Writing 7- and 8-Digit Numbers
Let us take number forty-six lakh twenty-seven thousand three hundred and fifty-two. To
write this number, we proceed as follows—

Step 1 Form the three periods. Lakhs Thousands Ones

Step 2 Write all the entries of lakhs in the first Lakhs Thousands Ones
period from the left. 4 6

Step 3 Write all the entries of thousands in the Lakhs Thousands Ones
second period from the left. 4 6 2 7

Step 4 Write the hundreds, tens, and ones. Lakhs Thousands Ones
4 6 2 7 3 5 2

Step 5 Insert commas to separate the periods. Therefore the number is 46,27,352.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• Reading a number is the same as writing it in words.
• Writing a number is the same as writing it in figures or numerals.
• For writing an 8-digit number, we form four periods.

Example 2 Write the numerals and separate the periods.


(a) Forty-two lakh seventy-two thousand three hundred and forty-five
(b) Seven crore thirty-four lakh ten thousand five hundred and sixty-eight
(c) Nine crore fifty-two lakh thirty-seven thousand two hundred and ninety-two

(c) 9 5 2 3 7 2 9 2 9,52,37,292

Teacher’s Tip
You may write commonly known 7- and 8- digit numbers, for example, population of a city and ask
the students to read those numbers for practice in class.

Large Numbers 5
EXERCISE 1.1

1. Separate the periods of the following using commas—


(a) 6875834 (b) 8935514 (c) 31215081 (d) 52578974
2. Write the numbers in an Indian place value chart.
(a) 9,45,098 (b) 35,00,056 (c) 1,49,33,254 (d) 5,65,54,454
3. Write in words.
(a) 45,890 (b) 3,56,900 (c) 6,74,008 (d) 5,34,90,099
4. Write in numerals.
(a) Sixty-two lakh seventy-five thousand four hundred and nineteen
(b) Thirty-four lakh twenty-six thousand nine hundred and nine
(c) Seventy-five lakh two thousand four hundred and sixteen
(d) Seven crore ninety-one lakh twenty thousand five hundred and sixty-nine
5. Counting by hundreds, write ten numbers starting from 4,30,550.

Reading 9-Digit Numbers


Reading a 9-digit number is the same as reading 7- or 8-digit numbers. We read all the
digits under the same period together along with the name of the period.
Example 3 Write the numbers in words.
Crores Lakhs Thousands Ones
TC C TL L TTh Th H T O

(a) 1 2 3 6 7 8 9 5 4
(b) 3 8 1 6 5 4 7 2 9

Solution
(a) Twelve crore thirty-six lakh seventy-eight thousand nine hundred and fifty-four
(b) Thirty-eight crore sixteen lakh fifty-four thousand seven hundred and twenty-nine

Writing 9-Digit Numbers


For writing 9-digit numbers, we proceed as follows—
Step 1 Form the four periods in a place value chart.
Step 2 Write all the entries of crores in the first period from the left.
Step 3 Write all the entries of lakhs in the second period from the left and so on.
Step 4 Insert commas to separate the periods.

6 Large Numbers
Let us understand this by the following example.
Example 4  rite the digits of number 865543210 under the correct places in the place

UNDERSTANDING FACE VALUE AND PLACE VALUE


Let us consider a number 3,40,526. In this number, the face value of 3 is 3, 4 is 4, 0 is 0, 5
is 5, 2 is 2, and 6 is 6. Hence we can say the face value of a digit in a number is the value of
the digit itself, regardless of its position in the number.
Suppose we have a number 55,55,55,555. Let us arrange this number in the place value chart.

Crores Lakhs Thousands Ones


TC C TL L TTh Th H T O
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5

5 ten 5 5 ten 5 lakhs 5 ten 5 thousands 5 hundreds 5 tens 5


crores crores lakhs = 5,00,000 thousands = 5,000 = 500 = 50 ones
= 50,00,00,000 = 5,00,00,000 = 50,00,000 = 50,000 =5

Hence, the face value of each 5 is 5, but the place value of each 5 is different.
The place value of a digit in a number depends upon the place it occupies in a place value chart.

I am 10 times I am 100 I am 1000

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• The face value and place value of 0 is 0.
• Place value of a digit = face value × place of the digit in a place value chart.
• The value of each place in the place value chart is ten times the value of the place on its
immediate right.

Large Numbers 7
Let us take the place values of the digits in 69,12,456 to understand.
Place value of 6 = 6 × 1 = 6
Place value of 5 = 5 × 10 = 50
Place value of 4 = 4 × 100 = 400
Place value of 2 = 2 × 1,000 = 2,000
Place value of 1 = 1 × 10,000 = 10,000
Place value of 9 = 9 × 1,00,000 = 9,00,000
Place value of 6 = 6 × 10,00,000 = 60,00,000
Example 5 Write the face values and place values of given digits.
(a) 7 in 70,23,785 (b) 3 in 4,34,37,667
Solution
(a) The face value of all 7s in 70,23,785 is 7.
Place value of 7 at the hundreds place = 7 × 100 = 700
Place value of 7 at the ten lakhs place = 7 × 10,00,000 = 70,00,000
(b) The face value of all 3s in 4,34,37,667 is 3.
Place value of 3 at the ten thousands place = 3 × 10,000 = 30,000
Place value of 3 at the ten lakhs place = 3 × 10,00,000 = 30,00,000
Example 6 Write the place values of the coloured digits and find their sums and
differences.
(a) 32,05,724 (b) 6,53,96,320
Solution
Infobit
(a) The place value of 3 = 3 × 10,00,000 = 30,00,000
The place value of 2 = 2 × 10 = 20 A googol is a number represented
by 1 followed by 100 zeros.
The sum of the place values
= 30,00,000 + 20 = 30,00,020
The difference of the place values
= 30,00,000 – 20 = 29,99,980

(b) The place value of 5 = 5 × 10,00,000 = 50,00,000


Around 1930, American
The place value of 3 = 3 × 100 = 300 mathematician, Edward Kasner found
The sum of the place values himself working with numbers as large
as 1 followed by 100 zeros. Edward
= 50,00,000 + 300 = 50,00,300
Kasner asked his 9-year-old nephew
The difference of the place values Milton Sirotta to pick a name for the
= 50,00,000 – 300 = 49,99,700 number. Then Milton made up the
word googol.

INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM OF NUMERATION


The system of numeration that we commonly use in India is called the Indian system of
numeration. However, there is another system of numeration called the international
system of numeration. It is followed in most of other countries. The business and finance
sectors commonly follow this system.
The place value charts for the Indian and the international systems of numeration are given below.

In both the systems, the first five places remain the same (that is, up to ten thousands).
The rules for writing the names in the international system of numeration are the same as
those for the Indian system of numeration except the difference of places and periods.

TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION

All electronic machines only understand two instructions—


‘ON’ and ‘OFF’. Computer is also an electronic machine. But
it processes much complex instructions. Do you know how?
It uses a special number system called ‘Binary System’
which has only two digits—‘0’ and ‘1’. In computer
programming, digit 0 stands for ‘OFF’ and 1 stands for ‘ON’.
All complex instructions are translated into strings of 0 and
1 in the background. Computer processes these instructions
of 0s and 1s and then result is again translated into a
human language.

DIFFERENT WAYS OF EXPRESSING A NUMBER


Sheena wants to know why a cheque has the amount written in both words and figures.
Her father explains that it is done to make sure that the number is understood correctly, and
no changes can be made in the amount written in numbers.
In fact, not only words and figures, a number can
be expressed in several other ways too. C TL L TTh Th H T O

PREDECESSOR AND SUCCESSOR


The number that comes just before a given number is called its predecessor. To find the
predecessor of a given number, we subtract 1 from it.
Predecessor = Number – 1
The number that comes just after a given number is called its successor. To find the
successor of a given number, we add 1 to it.
Successor = Number + 1
Let us enrich the concept of predecessors and successors for large numbers using an activity.

12 Large Numbers
Mat h s Ac t i v i t y
Aim To strengthen the concept of predecessor and successor for large numbers
You will need Two sets of number cards from 0 to 9 and three flash cards—one with ‘Successor’,
one with ‘Predecessor’, and the last with ‘Number in Words’ written on them
Steps
1. Divide the class into three teams, say, A, B, and C.
2. Ask team A to come forward and form a 7-digit number using the first set of number cards.
3. Ask a member of team B to come forward and pick up a flash card—‘Successor’,
‘Predecessor’, or ‘Number in Words’—and show it to team C.
4. Now ask team C to come forward and use the second set of number cards.
• If the flash card picked up by team B is ‘Successor’ or ‘Predecessor’, team C will form
the successor or predecessor of the number formed by team A.
• If the flash card picked up by team B is ‘Number in Words’, team C will write the number
in words on the board in the Indian number system.
For example—
• Team A forms the number 74,45,999 using the first set of number cards.
• Team B shows the flash card ‘Successor’ to team C.
• Team C forms the number 74,46,000 (successor of 74,45,999) using the second set of
number cards.
5. Repeat the same activity by changing the roles of the teams.
6. Similarly repeat the activity with 8- and 9-digit numbers.
7. Play 6–7 rounds of the activity or till the time allows.

Example 11
(a) Find the predecessor of 42,60,831.
(b) Write the numbers that lie between 53,21,234 and 53,21,230.
Solution
(a) The predecessor of 42,60,831 = 4260831 − 1 = 42,60,830
(b) Predecessor of 53,21,234 = 53,21,233
Predecessor of 53,21,233 = 53,21,232
Predecessor of 53,21,232 = 53,21,231
So 53,21,233; 53,21,232; and 53,21,231 lie between 53,21,234 and 53,21,230.
Example 12
(a) Find the successor of 3,56,45,078.
(b) Write the numbers that lie between 45,45,935 and 45,45,938.
Solution
(a) The successor of 3,56,45,078 = 3,56,45,078 + 1 = 3,56,45,079
(b) Successor of 45,45,935 = 45,45,936
Successor of 45,45,936 =45,45,937
So 45,45,936 and 45,45,937 are two numbers that lie between 45,45,935 and 45,45,938.

(a) _______; ________; 87,28,604; 87,28,605
(b) 9,41,43,243; 9,41,43,244; _________; _________

COMPARING NUMBERS
In previous classes, we have learnt to compare smaller numbers. We shall follow the same
rules for the comparison of bigger numbers.
Rule 1 The number with more digits is greater than the number with fewer digits. For
example, 857347 > 65781.
Rule 2 If two numbers have the same number of digits, we compare the digits from
the extreme left and continue till two different digits are found. These digits are
compared to decide the greater and smaller numbers.
Example 13 Insert commas at the appropriate places in the given numbers and find the
greater number in each of the following—
(a) 33307188 or 9454342 (b) 443055026 or 43055357

Solution (a) 3,33,07,188 and 94,54,342

number of digits = 8 number of digits = 7

Therefore 3,33,07,188 > 94,54,342.

(b) 44,30,55,026 and 4,30,55,357


number of digits = 9 number of digits = 8

Therefore 44,30,55,026 > 4,30,55,357.

Example 14 Find which one is greater—2,34,52,926 or 2,34,62,926?


Solution 
As the number of digits is the same in both the numbers, we start comparing the
digits from the left.

We have already learnt to form the smallest and greatest numbers with the given digits. Let
us now extend the same to large numbers.
Example 15 Form the greatest and the smallest numbers using the digits 4, 1, 3, 0, 7, 2,
and 5 only once.
Solution  To get the greatest number using the given digits, arrange the digits in
descending order. The descending order of the digits is 7 < 5 < 4 < 3 < 2 < 1 < 0.
Thus the greatest number is 75,43,210. The number 0123457
Similarly to form the smallest number using the given is 1,23,457, it leaves

ROUNDING OFF NUMBERS


Tina’s school is 12 km from her home. She says that her school is about 10 km from her
home. The distance between Rohit’s school and home is 17 km. He says that his school is
about 20 km from his home. In both the cases, the numbers have been rounded.
When we round a number, we give the approximate number, rather than the exact number.
Rounding gives a value of the number which is very close to its actual value.
Numbers can be rounded to the nearest 10, nearest 100, nearest 1,000, and so on.

Rounding Off to the Nearest 10


To round a number to the nearest 10, we first find the two tens between which the given
number lies. Next find the ten which is closer to the number and round off the number to
that ten. When the number lies midway between two tens, round to the larger ten.

16 Large Numbers
Example 16 Round the following numbers to the nearest 10 on a number line.
(a) 23 (b) 225
Solution (a) Mark the number on a number line.

20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
Close Far
From the number line, it is clear that 23 is closer to 20 than 30, therefore 23 rounds to 20.
(b) Mark the number on a number line.

220 221 222 223 224 225 226 227 228 229 230
Same Same

Here 225 lies in the middle of 220 and 230. So it will be rounded to the larger tens.
Therefore 225 rounds to 230.

Rounding Off to the Nearest 100


To round a number to the nearest 100, we first find between which two hundreds the given
number lies. Next find the hundred which is closer to the number and round off the number
to that hundred.
Example 17 Round 604 to the nearest hundred.
Solution Here 604 lies between 600 and 700 and 604 is closer to 600 than 700.

600 604 700

Therefore 604 rounds to 600.

Rounding Off to the Nearest 1,000


To round a number to the nearest 1,000, we first find between which two thousands the
given number lies. Next find the thousand which is closer to the number and round the
number to that thousand.
Example 18 Round 2,165 to the nearest 1,000.
Solution Here 2,165 lies between 2,000 and 3,000.

2,000 2,165 3,000

2,165 is closer to 2,000 than 3,000. Therefore 2,165 rounds to 2,000.

ROMAN NUMERALS
The Roman numeral system is the numeral system of ancient Rome. It is based on the
letters of the English alphabet which are combined to signify their values.
Roman numerals are mainly used because of their historical importance.
The ancient Romans used the letters arranged from the greatest value to the least value
starting from the left.
The basic symbols used by the Romans to write their numerals were 7 letters of the English
alphabet. They are given in the table with their values in Hindu-Arabic numerals.

Symbol I V X L C D M
Value (Hindu-Arabic numbers) 1 5 10 50 100 500 1000

The first ten Roman numerals are­—I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X.

Rules for Reading and Writing Roman Numerals


Rule 1 A symbol can be repeated a maximum of three times.
Rule 2 Only I, X, C, and M can be repeated.
Rule 3 If one or more symbols are placed after the symbol of greater value, the values are
added.

Large Numbers 19
Examples 1. XI = 10 + 1 = 11 2. CLXV = 100 + 50 + 10 + 5 = 165
3. MCC = 1000 + 100 + 100 = 1200
Rule 4 I f a symbol is placed before the symbol of greater value, the symbol of lesser value
is subtracted.
Example 19 Find the value of the following—
(a) XL (b) XXXIV
Solution (a) XL = (50 – 10) = 40 (b) XXXIV = 10 + 10 + 10 + (5 – 1) = 30 + 4 = 34
Now it is time to do an activity to strengthen the concept of conversion of Hindu-Arabic
numerals to Roman numerals.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• Subtract only I, X, or C; symbols V, L, or D cannot be subtracted.
• Subtract one number at a time from another.

Mat h s Ac t i v i t y

2 THE FOUR FUNDAMENTAL
OPERATIONS

India's first Covid-19 infection was reported in January 2020. Since then Indian
government is making efforts to wipe out the virus or minimise its effect. To
successfully wipe out the Covid-19 virus, vaccination, frequent handwash, and
wearing a mask is very important.
Till 01 June 2021; 27,39,78,658 people had been vaccinated with dose 1 of the
2-dose corona vaccine while 5,86,25,932 people had been vaccinated with dose 2.

Essential Questions
1. How can we find the total number of vaccination doses in the above case?
We will add the two numbers.
2. How can we add these large numbers?
Adding larger numbers is the same as adding smaller numbers. Let us see:
273978658
+ 58625932
332604590

Thus the total number of vaccination doses = 33,26,04,590.


Similarly, subtracting larger numbers is also the same as subtracting smaller numbers.

Each number to be added in an addition problem is called an addend; we can have two or
more addends.
The answer to an addition problem is called a sum.
In the above example, 19,43,395 is the sum of 14,12,600; 5,10,970; and 19,825.

Example 2 Add 25,746; 7,32,49,503; and 23,15,947 in two different ways.
Solution

When the numbers are taken in When the numbers are taken in
the same order: different order:
C TL L TTH Th H T O C TL L TTH Th H T O
2 2 1 2 2 1
2 5 7 4 6 7 3 2 4 9 5 0 3

Thus the required sum is 7,55,91,196.

Properties of Addition
• When the order of the addends is changed, the sum remains the same.
231231 4 + 45214478 = 47526792 and 45214478 + 2312314 = 47526792
• The sum of 0 and the number is the number itself.
512577 + 0 = 0 + 512577 = 512577
• Even if the grouping of addends is changed, the sum remains the same.
(2335000 + 4560000) + 5129500 = 12024500
2335000 + (4560000 + 5129500) = 12024500
4560000 + (2335000 + 5129500) = 12024500

SUBTRACTION OF LARGE NUMBERS
In 2013, Mr Gupta earned `7,69,67,000, while in 2014, he earned `6,87,24,000.
How much more money did he earn in 2013 than in 2014?
Here we need to find the difference between the two amounts. So we must subtract.
Arrange the numbers in columns by writing the greater number above the smaller number.
C TL L TTH TH H T O
7 6 9 6 7 0 0 0 Minuend
− 6 8 7 2 4 0 0 0 Subtrahend
8 2 4 3 0 0 0 Difference

Thus he earned `82,43,000 more in 2013 than in 2014.

Checking Subtraction
We can check whether the subtraction is done correctly or not by using addition. To do
so, we add the difference and the subtrahend. If the sum is equal to the minuend, the
subtraction is correct, otherwise, we need to check our calculation once again.
Let us understand with the help of the following activity:

MULTIPLICATION OF LARGE NUMBERS
We have already learnt the multiplication of 4- and 5-digit numbers by 1-digit numbers
and the multiplication of 2- and 3-digit numbers by 2-digit numbers. Let us now learn the
multiplication of large numbers.

Multiplying Larger Numbers by 1-digit Numbers


To multiply larger numbers by 1-digit numbers, we follow the given steps.
Step 1 Start multiplying from the ones column.
Step 2 Move to the tens column and multiply. Add the carried over number, if any and
continue likewise till all the digits are multiplied.

Multiplication by Multipliers Ending with Zero


Let us recall.
A number when multiplied by 1 gives the number itself. 8 × 1 = 8
When a number is multiplied by 10, we put a 0 to the right of 8 × 10 = 80
the multiplicand to get the product. 8 × 100 = 800
In general, when we multiply a number by 10, 100, 1000, and so on,
8 × 1000 = 8000
we put as many 0s to the right of the multiplicand as there are 0s in
the multiplier.
Example 9 Multiply 70 by 20.
Solution
Multiply the non-zero digits.
7 × 20
70 × 20 = 1400

Put three 0s in the product. Therefore 30× 60 × 90 = 1,62,000.
Example 11 Multiply 125 × 500 horizontally.
Solution 125 × 5 = 625 Product of non-zero digits
Put two 0s in the product. Therefore 125 × 500 = 62,500.

Lattice Multiplication
Lattice multiplication is a method of multiplying two numbers using a grid. It is same as regular
long multiplication, but the advantage is that it breaks the multiplication into smaller steps.
Let us multiply two numbers—32,476 and 2,138, using the lattice method with the help of
the following activity.

To divide large numbers by 9, we can also use a shortcut method. Let us do it through the
following activity.

Mat h s Ac t i v i t y
Aim To understand a shortcut method of dividing large numbers by 9
You will need A sheet of paper and a pen
Steps
1. Write the leftmost digit of the dividend as the first digit of your quotient.
2. To obtain the next digit of the quotient, add the previous digit of the quotient to the next digit
of the dividend.
3. Repeat step 2 until you add to the last digit of the dividend. The number obtained is the
remainder. If 9 divides into the remainder, add the quotient to the answer.
For example, let us solve 42,79,680 ÷ 9.
(a) As the leftmost digit of the dividend is 4, write 4 as the first digit of the quotient.
(b) For the next digit of the quotient, add the next digit of the dividend—that is 2, to the
previous digit of the quotient—that is 4. We get 6 as the next digit of the quotient. Now
the answer is 46 .
(c) Next add 7 (next digit of the dividend) and 6 (previous digit of the quotient) to get 13.
Now write 3 as the next digit and carry over 1 to the previous digit 6, making it equal to
7. Now the answer is 473 .
(d) Now add 9 (next digit of the dividend) and 13 (previous sum) to get 22. Now write 2
as the next digit and carry over 2 to the previous digit 3, making it equal to 5. Now the
answer is 4752 .
(e) N ow add 6 and 22 to get 28. Write 8 as the next digit and carry over 2 to the previous
digit 2, making it equal to 4. Now the answer is 47548 .
(f) Add the next digit 8 to 28 to get 36. Write 6 in the answer and carry over 3 to the previous
digits 48, making it equal to 51. Now the answer is 475516 .
(g) N ow add the last digit 0 to 36 to get 36. Divide 36 by 9, we get 4. Now add 4 to the
previous answer 475516, to get 475520.
Thus 42,79,680 ÷ 9 = 4,75,520.

PROBLEM SOLVING WITH FUNDAMENTAL OPERATIONS


Example 19 An organisation spent `7,22,436 to give gift vouchers to each of its
employees on a festival.
(a) Each employee received a voucher worth `1,716. How many employees are there?
(b) Next year, the organisation plans to distribute gift vouchers worth `2,526 to each
employee. How much money will the organisation need now? Assume the number of
employees to be the same.
Solution
Step 1 Read and understand the problem carefully.
(a) We are given the total amount the organisation spent on gift vouchers. We are given the
worth of a voucher an employee receives. We are asked to find the number of employees
the organisation has.
(b) We will know the number of employees from the previous question. We are given
the worth of a voucher an employee receives. We are asked to find the total amount the
organisation will need to give gift vouchers.
Step 2 List out the facts given in the question.
Total amount spent on gift vouchers = `7,22,436
Worth of one gift voucher = `1,716
Worth of one gift voucher for next year = `2,526
Number of employees = ?
Total amount spent on gift vouchers for next year = ?

40 The Four Fundamental Operations


Step 3 Make a mental picture of the question.
(a) The amount `7,22,436 needs to be divided into vouchers worth `1,716.
`7,22,436
`1,716 `1,716 `1,716 … `1,716
Number of divisions = Total number of vouchers
So the number of vouchers will give the number of employees.

(b) The amount of vouchers `2,526 to be multiplied with total number of employees.
Sum of all the amounts = Total amount spent on vouchers
`2,526 `2,526 `2,526 … `2,526
Number of divisions = Total number of employees

4 2 1
1716 7 2 2 4 3 6
Step 4 Solve the problem step by step.
(a) Total amount of money spent by the − 6 8 6 4
organisation = `7,22,436 3 6 0 3

Step 5 Check your answer.
(a) The product of total number of employees and price of one voucher should give the total
amount spent.
`1,716 × 421 = `7,22,436 Total amount spent 
Thus our answer is correct.
(b) The total amount spent divided by the price of a each gift voucher should give the
number of employees. Similarly on dividing it by the number of employees we should get
the price of a gift voucher.

The Four Fundamental Operations 41


`10,63,446 ÷ `2,526 = 421 Number of employees 

`10,63,446 ÷ 421 = `2,526 Price of a voucher


Thus our answer is correct.

ESTIMATION IN OPERATIONS ON NUMBERS
In our day-to-day life, we may come across situations where we do not need to know the
exact figure and where an approximate figure is sufficient. For example, read the following
statements:
1. In an organisation, 180 out of 350 employees were fully vaccinated for Corona virus. Out
of the remaining, 120 employees were vaccinated with the first dose of vaccine.
2. There were about 12,000 people vaccinated for the Corona virus in Pune, yesterday.
In the first statement, we know that exactly 180 and 120 employees were vaccinated with
both doses and single dose respectively. However, the second statement does not give us an
exact figure. Here the number could be 12,329; 11,989, or any other number near 12,000.
We call such number an estimated number. Finding an answer to a solution which may not
be actual but closest is called estimation.
We have already discussed estimation in earlier classes. Let us consider some examples to
see estimation related to everyday life.

SUBJECT INTEGRATION
India has a land area of 32,87,263 sq. km; more than one-third of which is

2. If each visitor purchased one book each, find the approximate cost of a book to the nearest rupees.
3. Find out more interesting facts about 41st IKBF. Which was the theme country for this edition?

Estimating Sum
Example 20 According to Chilika Wildlife Division, in 2020, 11,05,040 migratory birds
belonging to 184 species had arrived in Odisha’s Chilika. Whereas in 2019, 10,47,978 birds
belonging to 183 species had arrived at Chilika? Find the actual and estimated sum of the
migrated birds in 2019 and 2020.

The Four Fundamental Operations 43

2 1 5 3 0 1 8 2 1 5 0 0 0 0

Hence about 21,50,000 birds were migrated to India in years 2019 and 2020, whereas
21,53,018 was the actual number of migrated birds.

Estimating Difference
Example 21 For an examination, 69,46,445 applicants registered themselves. Out of
these, 59,36,028 appeared for the examination. Find the actual and estimated number of
applicants who did not appear for examination.
Solution Here we need to find the difference between the total applicants and the number
of applicants appeared for the examination.
Actual Difference Estimated Difference
6 9 4 6 4 4 5 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 Rounding to the nearest 1,00,000
– 5 9 3 6 0 2 8 – 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 Rounding to the nearest 1,00,000
1 0 1 0 4 1 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0

Hence about 10,00,000 applicants did not appear for examination, whereas the actual
number was 10,10,417.

Estimating Product
Example 22 A milk truck contains 28,590 packets of milk. If 9 such trucks are to be sent,
what is the actual and estimated number of milk packets?
Solution Here we need to find the product of the number of milk packets in a truck and
the number of trucks.

Actual product Estimated product


2 8 5 9 0 2 9 0 0 0 Rounding off to the nearest 1,000
× 9 × 1 0
Rounding off to the nearest 10
2 5 7 3 1 0 2 9 0 0 0 0

Thus there are about 2,90,000 packets of milk, whereas the actual number is 2,57,310.

Estimating Quotient
Example 23 If there are 25,872 tiles to be sent to New Delhi on 8 loading vehicles, then
around how many tiles should be loaded on each vehicle?

44 The Four Fundamental Operations


Solution
Total number of tiles = 30,000 Rounding off to the nearest 1,000

Number of vehicles = 10 Rounding off to the nearest 10


Tiles on each vechicle = 30000 ÷ 10 = 3,000

Thus around 3,000 tiles should be loaded on each vehicle.

3 FACTORS AND MULTIPLES

On every Friday night, a local Radio station held a call-in contest.


• Every third caller won a chance to play a quiz in the show.
• Every fifth caller won a gift hamper of chocolates.

Essential Questions
In the first 75 calls—
1. Which callers won a chance to play a quiz in the show?
Every third caller—that is, 3rd, 6th, 9th, ... callers won a chance to play a quiz in the show.
2. Which callers won a gift hamper of chocolates?
Every fifth caller—that is, 5th, 10th, 15th, ... callers won a chance to play a quiz in the show.
3. Which callers won both—a chance to play a quiz in the show and a gift hamper of chocolates?
If we skip count by the product of 3 and 5—that is, 15—we will get callers who won both the
prizes. So 15th, 30th, 45th, 60th, and 75th callers won both the prizes.

When we skip count by a number, we get the multiples of that number.


The numbers 3, 6, 9, 12, ... are the multiples of 3.
Similarly 5, 10, 15, 20, ... and 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, ... are the multiples of 5 and 15
respectively.

FACTORS
Let us recall the concept of factors by playing the following game:

Maths Activity
Aim To recall the concept of factors
You will need A4 sheet of paper, colour pens
Steps
1. Divide the class into two teams—team A and team B.
2. Write the numbers from 1 to 25 on white/black board. The game will be played as follows:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25

• One player from either one of the teams selects a number. His/ her team gets that many
points. For example, suppose a player from team A starts the game and selects a number
25, then team A receives 25 points.
• Player from team crosses 25 from the list. Now the opposing team B gets the points equal
to the sum of all the factors that have not already been crossed. Here team B gets 1 + 5 =
6 points and numbers 1 and 5 are crossed from the list.
• Record the points of both teams in a table.

Team A Team B

25 6 (Factors of 25 are 1, 5, and 25, but 25 is crossed)

Factors and Multiples 49


• Similarly, team B then picks a number, say 23, from the remaining list and gets awarded
with that many points. The number 23 crossed out.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
11 121 3 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25

Team A Team B

25 6

0 23

• Since there are no factors of 23 left in the list of numbers, the other team will not get
any point.
• The teams take turns choosing numbers and crossing the factors.
• When all the numbers have been crossed, the team with the highest sum of the numbers
wins.
Reflections
• Which number(s) has the least number of factors?
• Which number(s) has the most factors?
• Which number(s) should the teams avoid and why?
• What are some real-life scenarios that require knowledge about factors?

A factor is a number which divides another number without leaving a remainder.


Example 12 ÷ 3 = 4 12 ÷ 4 = 3 Both 3 and 4 are factors of 12.
We can find all the factors of a number in two ways—
(a) By multiplication (b) By division

1 × 12 = 12 12 ÷ 1 = 12 12 ÷ 4 = 3

2 × 6 = 12 12 ÷ 2 = 6 12 ÷ 6 = 2

3 × 4 = 12 12 ÷ 3 = 4 12 ÷ 12 = 1

The numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 are all factors of 12.

2 The number ends in 2, 4, 6, 8, or 0. Numbers 920; 1,234; 2,468; 12,366;


and 65,732 are all divisible by 2.
3 The sum of the digits of the number 5,742 = 5 + 7 + 4 + 2 = 18
should be divisible by 3. 34,563 = 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 3 = 21
Both 18 and 21 are divisible by 3. So
given numbers are divisible by 3.
5 The number ends in 5 or 0. Numbers 670; 1,540; 2,860; 16,350;
and 65,730 are all divisible by 5.

9 The sum of the digits of the number 1,359 = 1 + 3 + 5 + 9 = 18

Both 18 and 27 are divisible
by 9. So given numbers are divisible
by 9.
10 The number ends in 0. Numbers 8,970; 2,340; and 62,880
are all divisible by 10.

PRIME AND COMPOSITE NUMBERS
Any number greater than 1 which has only two factors—1 and the number itself—is called
a prime number.
Examples The numbers 2, 3, 5, and 7 are prime numbers.
A number which has more than two factors is called a composite number.
Examples The numbers 4, 6, 8, 9, and 10 are composite numbers.

Prime and Composite Numbers Between 1 and 100


The steps to find prime and composite numbers between 1 to 100 are given here.
To find out prime and composite numbers, we use the method derived by the ancient Greek
mathematician named Eratosthenes.
Step 1 Write the numbers from 1 to 100.
Step 2 Make a crown on 1 because it is a unique number.
Step 3 Circle the number 2 and cross all the numbers divisible by 2.
Step 4 Circle the number 3 and cross all the numbers divisible by 3.
Step 5 Circle the number 5 and cross all the numbers divisible by 5.
Step 6 Circle the number 7 and cross all the numbers divisible by 7.
Step 7 Circle the number 11 and cross all the numbers divisible by 11.
Step 8 Continue this process until all the numbers are either crossed-out or circled.

HIGHEST COMMON FACTOR (HCF)


Let us consider two numbers, 12 and 18.
Factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12.
Factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18.
We can see that 1, 2, 3, and 6 are the factors which are common to both 12 and 18.
Out of these common factors, 6 is the greatest factor which is common to both 12 and 18.
The greatest number which divides two or more numbers exactly without leaving any
remainder is called the highest common factor (HCF).

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
When two or more numbers have the same factor, that factor is called a common factor.

HCF of 3 Numbers
To find the HCF of 3 numbers, first find the factors of the 3 numbers separately. Then take
out the common factors. Next, identify the HCF.
Example 1 Find the HCF of 18, 24, and 72.
Solution Factor pairs of 18 Factor pairs of 24 Factor pairs of 72
1 × 18 = 18 1 × 24 = 24 1 × 72 = 72
2 × 9 = 18 2 × 12 = 24 2 × 36 = 72
3 × 6 = 18 3 × 8 = 24 3 × 24 = 72
4 × 6 = 24 4 × 18 = 72
6 × 12 = 72
8 × 9 = 72
Factors of 18 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18
Factors of 24 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24
Factors of 72 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 72
Common factors = 1, 2, 3, and 6

HCF by Prime Factorisation


To find the HCF by prime factorisation, we find the prime factors of the given numbers and
list the prime factors which are common to all. The product of the common prime factors is
the required HCF.
Example 2 Find the HCF of 15, 25, and 75.
Solution Prime factorisation of 15 = 3 × 5 3 15 5 25 3 75
Prime factorisation of 25 = 5 × 5 5 5 5 5 5 25
Prime factorisation of 75 = 3 × 5 × 5 1 1 5 5
Common prime factor = 5 1
HCF = 5

HCF by Division Method


To find the HCF of two numbers by the division method, 72 192 2
we follow the given steps. −144
Let us consider two numbers—192 and 72. 48 72 1
−48
Step 1 Make the smaller number as a divisor and the larger number 24 48 2
as a dividend and start dividing. −48
Step 2 The remainder left (if not zero) becomes the new divisor and Last divisor 0
the last divisor becomes the new dividend.
Step 3 Continue the process until 0 is obtained as remainder.
Step 4 The last divisor is the required HCF.
Therefore the HCF of 72 and 192 is 24.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• If two numbers have their HCF as 1, they are known as coprime numbers. For example, 4 and 9.
• Coprime numbers need not be prime numbers.
• The HCF of numbers is less than or equal to the smallest of the given numbers.

Observe the following—
7×1=7
7 × 2 = 14
7 × 3 = 21
7 × 4 = 28
Here 7 has been multiplied by 1, 2, 3, and 4 consecutively to get the products as 7, 14, 21,
and 28 respectively.
So the multiples of 7 = 7, 14, 21, 28, and so on.
Similarly multiples of 2 = 2, 4, 6, 8, …;
multiples of 3 = 3, 6, 9, 12, …; and
multiples of 4 = 4, 8, 12, 16, …; and so on.

Solution The first ten multiples of 8 are 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, and 80.

Properties of Multiples
• Every number is a multiple of itself.
• Every number is a multiple of 1.
• Every multiple of a number is greater than or equal to the number.
• The smallest multiple of a number is the number itself.

Multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, ... .
The common multiples are 12, 24, 36, ... .
Out of these common multiples, 12 is the multiple which is the lowest (least).
The smallest number that can be divided by the given numbers without leaving any

LCM by Prime Factorisation
In this method, we first list the prime factors of the numbers and then multiply the common
factors and the remaining prime factors.
Example 5 Find the LCM of 32 and 48.
Solution Prime factorisation of 32 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
Prime factorisation of 48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
Multiplying the common factors 2 and the remaining prime factors, we get
LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 96.

LCM by the Common Division Method


In this method, we follow the steps given below.
Let us consider the numbers 12, 16, and 20.
Step 1 Divide by the smallest prime number, which can divide at least 2 12, 16, 20
one of the numbers, and bring down the numbers that cannot
2 6, 8, 10
be divided further.
Step 2 Continue dividing by the smallest possible prime numbers 2 3, 4, 5
until the last row contains prime numbers or coprime numbers. 3, 2, 5
Step 3  Multiply all the factors and the numbers in the last row to get the LCM.
LCM of 12, 16, and 20 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 2 × 5 = 240.

RELATIONSHIP OF HCF AND LCM


The product of the HCF and LCM of two natural numbers is equal to the product of the two
numbers.
Example Take two numbers 24 and 36. Find their HCF and LCM.
HCF LCM
2 24, 36 2 24, 36
Common 2 12, 18 2 12, 18
factors
3 6, 9 3 6, 9
2, 3 2, 3
The remaining factors 2 and 3 have
no other common factors and are
coprimes, thus, Remaining factors
HCF = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12. LCM = 2 × 2 × 3 × (2 × 3)
= 72
The product of HCF and LCM—that is, 12 and 72:
72 × 12 = 864
The product of the two numbers—that is, 24 and 36:
24 × 36 = 864
We see that the two products are same. Thus we can say,
Product of HCF and LCM = Product of the two numbers
Example 6 Find the LCM if the product of the two numbers is 2,025 and their HCF is 15.
Solution HCF × LCM = Product of two numbers

Example 7 The HCF of two numbers is 3 and the LCM is 90. If one number is 18, find
the other number.
Solution Product of two numbers = HCF × LCM
So 1st number × 2nd number = HCF × LCM
HCF × LCM
2nd number =
1st number
3 × 90
= = 15

The other number is 15.
Example 8 Find the greatest number which divides 56 and 84 exactly.
Solution To find the greatest divisor, we have to find the HCF.
56 84 1
−56
Last divisor 28 56 2
−56
0

Therefore 28 is the greatest number that divides the given numbers exactly.
Example 9 What is the smallest number that is divisible by 18, 24, and 54?
Solution To find the smallest dividend, we have to find the LCM.

2 18, 24, 54
2 9, 12, 27
2 9, 6, 27
3 3, 1, 27
3 3, 1, 9
3 1, 1, 3
3 1, 1, 1
LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 216
Therefore 216 is the smallest number that is exactly divisible by the given numbers.

• To add or subtract mixed numbers, change the fractions to improper fractions.
• If the sum or difference of fractions is an improper fraction, change the improper fraction to a
mixed number.

Properties for Addition and Subtraction of Fractions


• The sum and difference of zero and a fraction is the fraction itself—for example,
3 + 0 = 3, 3 – 0 = 3.
5 5 5 5
• The sum stays the same when the order of fractions is changed in addition, but the same
is not true for the difference—for example,
3 + 5 = 5 + 3 but 3 – 5 ≠ 5 – 3 .

MULTIPLICATION OF FRACTIONS
Multiplication of counting numbers can be represented as repeated addition. We can also
represent the multiplication of fractions as repeated addition. Let us see an example.

Visual Interpretation of Division of a Whole Number by a Fraction


Simmi’s father baked five cakes. Simmi wants to give three-fourths of a cake to each of
her five friends. Will she be able to do this? How much cake will be left over?
3
Here we have to divide 5 by . To divide five into three-fourths we proceed like this.
4
Let represents a cake. We have five cakes.

Fractions 81
Each cake is divided into 4 parts because
we need three- fourths of each cake.

Now shade/remove three parts from each cake.

15 (5 three-fourths) out of 20 parts


 (20 one-fourths) are shaded.

From the remaining 5 parts (one-fourths), we can get one three-fourth and two one-fourths.

             

          Five one-fourth         One three-fourth    Two one-fourths

So in total we now have 6 three-fourths and 2 one-fourths.


3
5÷ = 6 three-fourths and 2 one-fourths
4

But we are 1 part short from making another three-fourth. In other words, we have 2 parts out

of 3 or 2 of the required .
3

So we can say that we have 6 wholes (which is ) and one two-thirds.


We can write this division as:

3 2
5÷ =6
4 3
The above result can be verified mathematically:

3 4 20 2
5÷ =5× = =6
4 3 3 3
There are 6 three-fourths, and Simmi need only 5 three-fourths. So she will be able to divide

the cakes as per her choice. Also she will be left with and which is .

The numbers shown in nutrition facts tables often have a dot in between them.
These are called decimal numbers.

Essential Questions

1. Observe the nutritional information written on the packets of chips and chocolates or the
bottles of jam and pickle. How are they mentioned?
Generally the nutrients mentioned in these tables are in parts of whole.
2. Have you ever noticed the prices on grocery bills?
Generally the prices are given in decimal numbers.

90 Decimals
INTRODUCTION TO DECIMALS
Tenths
If we divide one complete whole into 10 equal parts, each part is called one-tenth and is
written as 1 .
10

We can also write the fraction 1 in another way. We can write it in decimal form. In the
10
decimal form, it is written as 0.1.
Look at the point in 0.1. We call the point a decimal point. The decimal number 0.1 is read
as zero point one.
2 = 0.2, 3
Similarly = 0.3, and so on.
10 10
Let us see how we can combine the whole numbers with decimal numbers.

Whole
number 3.6 Decimal part
part
We can see that there are 3 complete wholes and 6 out of
10 parts are shaded in the fourth whole. Decimal point

So we have 3 + 6 or 3 + 0.6 which is the same as 3.6.


10

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• The decimal numbers are also called decimal fractions.
• 1 one = 10 tenths

EXERCISE 5.1

Hundredths
If we divide one-tenth into 10 equal parts, each part thus obtained is
called one-hundredth and is written as 1 (see adjacent figure).
100
In the decimal form, it is written as 0.01.
Hence we can say 1 tenth = 10 hundredths.
In the adjacent figure, out of 100 squares, 25 have been shaded.
We write this in fraction as 25 (25 hundredths) and in decimal as 0.25.
100

Thousandths
If we divide one-hundredth into 10 equal parts, each part thus
obtained is called one-thousandth and is written as 1 .
1000
In the decimal form, it is written as 0.001.
Hence we can say 1 hundredth = 10 thousandths.

EXERCISE 5.2
1. Write the decimal form for each of the following—
(a)   (b)   (c)

2. Write the fraction and decimal form for twenty-one and forty-two hundredths.
3. CRITICAL THINKING I am a decimal and 2 tenths greater than 0.029. I am between
0.2 and 0.3. What number am I?
4. CRITICAL THINKING The numbers one-tenth, one-hundredth, one-thousandth, etc.,
are building blocks of decimal numbers. Now 10 is a factor of 10, 100, and 1,000. Verify
that 10 is also a factor of building blocks of decimal numbers. Also explain why?

92 Decimals
READING AND WRITING DECIMALS
We know that decimals consist of two parts—whole number part and decimal part.
To read a decimal or to write the decimal in words, we follow one of these rules—
Rule 1 The whole number part is read as usual. The decimal part is read as if it was a
whole number, but the name of the place of the last digit on the right is attached to the
number. The word ‘and’ is used for the decimal point.
Examples 
1. The decimal number 345.43 is read as three hundred forty-five and
forty-three hundredths.
2. The decimal number 172.3 is read as one hundred seventy-two and three
tenths.
3. The decimal number 0.48 is read as forty-eight hundredths.
There is another way which is more usual way of writing a decimal number.

We say 1.5 lakh as ‘one point five lakh’ or ‘one and a half lakh’. So 1.5 lakh is one lakh fifty thousand; or
1,50,000.

CONVERSION OF DECIMALS
Converting Fractions into Decimals
Decimals are fractions with denominators 10, 100, 1000, and higher multiples of 10. To
convert these fractions into decimals, look at the denominator. There should be as many
digits after the decimal point as there are 0s in the denominator.
5 28 375
Examples 1. = 0.5 2. = 0.28 3. = 0.375
10 100 1000
7
4. = 0.07 One 0 has been placed to have 2 decimal places.

6. 8 = = 8.01 The whole number remains the same.
100 100
CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
Each place to the right of the decimal point is a decimal place.

Converting Decimals into Fractions


To convert a decimal into a fraction, write the given decimal number as the numerator
with no decimal point, and in the denominator, write 1 followed by as many 0s as there are
digits after the decimal in the given number. Simplify, if required.
Examples 1. 10.2 = 10 2 One decimal place; 1 followed by one 0
10
2. 20.54 = 1027 = 20 27 Two decimal places; 1 followed by two 0s
50 50
3. 35.067 = 35 67 Three decimal places; 1 followed by three 0s

Place Value of Decimals
The value of each digit in a number depends upon the place it holds (occupies) on a place
value chart.
• Numbers get 10 times bigger on moving to the left.
• On moving to the right, the numbers get 10 times smaller.
• To the right of the ones, the whole number 1 is divided into ten equal parts.
• The decimal point separates the whole number from the decimal part.
Let us see some examples of decimal numbers and the place value of the digits in the
numbers.
Example 1 Write the place value of each digit in the following decimals.

EXPANDED FORM OF DECIMALS


Decimal numbers can be expanded in three ways—place value, decimal, and fractional form.
Example Expand 3.84 in all the three ways.
Place value form 3.84 = 3 ones + 8 tenths + 4 hundredths
Decimal form 3.84 = 3 + 0.8 + 0.04

LIKE AND UNLIKE DECIMALS


Decimals with the same number of decimal places are called like decimals.
Examples
1. Decimals 0.2, 3.5, and 17.9 are like decimals, each with one decimal place.
2. Decimals 5.24, 2.04, and 0.12 are like decimals, each with two decimal places.
3. Decimals 1.043, 0.845, and 13.908 are like decimals, each with three decimal places.
Decimals having the different number of decimal places are called unlike decimals.
Examples
1. Decimals 2.6, 12.64, and 0.486 are unlike decimals as they have different number of
decimal places.
2. Decimals 0.7, 0.71, and 0.723 are also unlike decimals.
We may add as many 0s to the right of the last digit after the decimal point as needed. It
does not change the value of the decimal number.
For example, 1.4 is the same as 1.40, and 2.72 is the same as 2.720. These are called
equivalent decimals.
Unlike decimals can be converted into like decimals by placing 0s.
2.6 12.64 0.486 Unlike decimals

2.600 12.640 0.486 Like decimals

96 Decimals
COMPARING DECIMALS
Just as we compare numbers, we can also compare decimals.
To compare decimals, we convert the unlike decimals into like decimals and compare their
whole number part and decimal part with the help of the following rules—
Rule 1 Out of the given decimals, the decimal with the greatest whole number part is the
greatest and the decimal with the smallest whole number part is the smallest.
Rule 2 If the whole number part is the same, we compare the decimals by comparing
their digits at the tenths place. If they are equal, digits at the hundredths place are
compared, and so on.
Example 2 Rahul and Raj walked back to their homes by walking 2.5 km and 2.48 km,
respectively. Who walked more distance?
Solution  Rahul walked 2.5 km → one decimal place
   Raj walked 2.48 km → 2 decimal places
To convert 2.5 to like decimal, put a 0 to make 2 decimal places.
Rahul walked 2.50 km, while Raj walked 2.48 km.
Now it is easy to compare—2.50 km > 2.48 km (as 5 > 4). Thus Rahul walked more
distance.
Example 3 Write the following decimals in order from the least to the greatest—0.45,
0.5, 0.005.
Solution  Change all the decimals to 3 decimal places—0.450, 0.500, 0.005. Now it is
easy to compare. The decimals in order from the least to the greatest—0.005,
0.45, 0.5.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S

ADDITION OF DECIMALS
Khushi loves running. On Sunday morning, she ran 2.37 km. She ran 0.895 km on Monday
and 1.2 km on Tuesday.
How much did she run in all?
To find the total distance, we have to add all the three distances.
To add the decimals, we follow the steps given below—
Step 1 Convert the unlike decimals into like decimals.
2.37 → 2.370
and 1.2 → 1.200.
Step 2 Write the addends one below the other so that the decimal 2.370
points of all the addends are one below the other. 0.895
Step 3 Add them as whole numbers. + 1.200
Step 4 Put the decimal point in the sum directly below the decimal 4.465
points in the addends.
Thus Khushi ran 4.465 km in all.
Example 4 Add 54.08, 6.237, and 182.4.
Solution By converting into like decimals with 3 decimal places, and adding, we have
54.080
6.237
+ 182.400
242.717
Thus 54.08 + 6.237 + 182.4 = 242.717.

Properties of Decimal Addition


• The change in the order of addends does not affect the sum of decimals.
Example 2.65 + 3.55 = 6.20 and 3.55 + 2.65 = 6.20
• The sum of a decimal number and 0 is the same decimal number.
Example 12.5 + 0 = 12.5 and 0 + 1.2 = 1.2

EXERCISE 5.5
1. Add the following decimals—

SUBTRACTION OF DECIMALS
For the annual sports day, Rashi was practising with her friend
Prashant. Prashant ran 3.76 km and Rashi ran 4.2 km. Who ran more
distance and by how much?
Here we need to subtract the measures.
To subtract the decimals, we follow the steps given below—
Step 1 Convert the unlike decimals into like decimals (4.2 → 4.20).
Step 2 Write the smaller number below the greater number 4.20
so that the decimal points are one below the other. – 3.76
Step 3 Subtract them as whole numbers. 0.44
Step 4 Put the decimal point in the difference directly below the decimal points in
the minuend and subtrahend.
Thus Rashi ran 0.44 km more than Prashant.

Decimals 99
Example 5 Subtract 25.5 from 26.005.
Solution By converting into like decimals with 3 decimal places and subtracting, we get
26.005
– 25.500
0.505
Thus 26.005 – 25.5 = 0.505.
Properties of Decimal Subtraction
• Any decimal number subtracted from itself gives the difference as 0.
Example 2.65 – 2.65 = 0 and 3.55 – 3.55 = 0
• If 0 is subtracted from a decimal number, the difference is the same decimal number.
Example 12.5 – 0 = 12.5 and 1.2 – 0 = 1.2

EXERCISE 5.6
1. Find the difference.
(a) 68.83 (b) 127.31 (c) 5.214 kg (d) 2.565 L

step measured 1.25 ft. What was the total distance covered by
Anita to cross the road?
Anita decided to add 1.25 ft + 1.25 ft + ... up to 12 times.
Her mother told her to multiply instead.

100 Decimals
This is what she did.
125
12 × 1.25 = ? × 12
Step 1 Multiply the numbers as whole numbers 250
ignoring the decimal point. 1250
Step 2 Count the number of decimal places in the 1500
multiplicand and multiplier, and add the 1.25 → 2 decimal places
number of decimal places. 12 → 0 decimal places
Step 3 Put the decimal point in the product from
the right after as many digits as the total 1.25 × 12 = 15.00
number of decimal places. 2 + 0 = 2 decimal places
The total distance to covered by Anita is 15 ft.

Multiplication of a Decimal by 10, 100, and 1000


Shalini bought 10 exercise books for school. Each exercise book cost `18.75. What was the
total cost of the exercise books?
To find the total cost, we have to multiply. For this, multiply ignoring the decimal point.
1875 × 10 = 18750
Now place the decimal point from the right after 2 digits as there are only 2 decimal places
in multiplicand. So we get 187.50.
Thus Shalini spent `187.50 on the exercise books.
In the above example, we can see that the value of each digit has increased by 10 times.
Examples
1. 4.62 × 10 = 46.2 Value of each digit has increased by 10 times.

2. 5.869 × 100 = 586.9 Value of each digit has increased by 100 times.

3. 7.203 × 1000 = 7203  The decimal point is omitted as it has become


a whole number.

4. 16.8 × 100 = 1680  One 0 is put to make the movement of 2 decimal


places possible.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• On multiplying a decimal by 10, the decimal point moves one place to the right.
• On multiplying a decimal by 100, the decimal point moves two places to the right.
• On multiplying a decimal by 1,000, the decimal point moves three places to the right.

Multiplication of a Decimal by a Decimal
Let us learn to multiply a decimal number by a decimal (using decimal model) through the
following activity.
Maths Activity
Aim To multiply two decimal numbers 0.7 and 0.8
You will need A few sheets of paper and sketch pens
Steps
1. Draw a 10 × 10 grid, which represents the number 1. (Figure 1)
2. Each row or column in the grid represents 0.1 of the whole. Now to show 0.7 on the grid,
shade 7 rows of the grid using any colour say blue. (Figure 2)
3. Now shade 8 columns with another colour, say red, to represent 0.8 on the grid. (Figure 3)

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3


4. Now count the squares that have turned purple. There are 56 such squares, which represent 56
hundredths. So 0.7 × 0.8 = 0.56.

Let us solve an example to strengthen the concept.


Example 6 Multiply 3.12 by 1.6.
Solution We multiply as we do for whole numbers ignoring the 312
decimal point. × 16
The number of decimal places is 2 + 1 = 3. 1872
Put the decimal after three places from the right in the 3120
final product. 4992
4992 = 4.992
Thus 3.12 × 1.6 = 4.992.

Properties of Decimal Multiplication


• The order of decimal numbers can be changed in multiplication. The product remains the same.
Example 2.2 × 3.3 = 7.26 and 3.3 × 2.2 = 7.26
• The product of a decimal number and 1 is the decimal number itself.
Example 2.4 × 1 = 2.4 and 1 × 2.4 = 2.4
• The product of a decimal number and 0 is 0.
Example 4.6 × 0 = 0 and 0 × 4.6 = 0

DIVISION OF DECIMALS
Division of a Decimal by a Whole Number
A group of 9 girls of class V needed a piece of cloth
each for the Sports’ Day. They decided to buy the
complete bolt and divide it equally amongst themselves.
They asked the salesgirl to measure the cloth in the
bolt. If it was 28.35 m long, then how much cloth did
each girl get?
We need to perform division here: 28.35 ÷ 9.
Step 1 Divide the decimals as the division of whole
numbers is done.
Step 2 Place the decimal point in the quotient directly 0 3 .1 5
above the decimal point in the dividend. 9 2 8 .3 5
Thus each girl will get 3.15 m of cloth. – 2 7 Dividing tenths
1 3 Dividing hundredths
Division of a Decimal by 10, 100, 1000 – 9
Example 7 Divide 26.54 kg into 10 equal parts. 4 5

4 0 Place a 0.
26.54 ÷ 100 = 0.2654
– 4 0
0
Thus each part weighs 2.654 kg.
When decimals are divided by 10, 100, or 1000, the value of each division will become
smaller by the number of 0s in the divisor.
22.75 ÷ 10 = 2.275 The decimal point has shifted 1 place to the left.
374.75 ÷ 100 = 3.7475 The decimal point has shifted 2 places to the left.
623.25 ÷ 1000 = 0.62325 The decimal point has shifted 3 places to the left.
23.25 ÷ 1000 = 0.02325 An extra 0 is placed to complete the decimal places.

6 PERCENTAGE

Chhaya went to a cloth store with her mother. She looked through the clothes at
the store and selected a top which was priced at `600. Her mother said she would
get a 50 per cent discount on the price as a sale is going on.

Essential Question
What does the ‘%’ sign represent? What does it mean?
The ‘%’ sign is called per cent. Per means ‘every’ and cent means ‘hundred’.
So ‘per cent’ means ‘one part out of hundred’. Per cent is also a form of fraction.

FINDING PER CENT OF A NUMBER


The simplest way to find the per cent of a number is to know the fraction equivalent to the
per cent.
For example, 50% means half or 1 times;
2 50% 25% 10%

25% means quarter or 1 times;


4
10% means one-tenth or 1 times;
10
200% means double or 2 times; and
300% means triple or 3 times.
Example 10 Fifty per cent of 70 apples are not ripe. How many apples are not ripe?

Solution 50% of 70 = 50 of 70 = 50 × 70 = 35
100 100 1
It means that 35 apples are not ripe.
Alternatively, 50% of 70 = half of 70 = 1 × 70 = 35
2
Example 11 Ishita takes 35% of 25 mL of her medicine. How much medicine is left?
35 35
Solution 
35% of 25 mL = of 25 mL = × 25 mL = 8.75 mL
100 100
If Ishita takes 8.75 mL of medicine, then 25 mL – 8.75 mL = 16.25 mL is left.
We can also find the percentage in the above example using Vedic mathematics.

POINTS AND LINES


Points and lines are the building blocks of geometry. These two concepts form the basis of
all the geometrical concepts and theories. Let us start with point.
Points In geometry, a point is a fixed location. It cannot be moved. A point may be
represented by drawing a dot on the paper.
The tip of a needle or a drawing pin can be considered as a physical picture of a point.
The capital letters of the English alphabet are used to show different points represented by
dots.
R B

A S
Line A line is a collection of points extended endlessly (indefinitely) in both the
directions along a straight path. For example, the sides of a road.
A line has no beginning and no end. It has no end points.
• When the word ‘line’ is used, it means straight line.
• A line is represented using a two-headed arrow showing that
it can be extended in both directions.
X Y
• A line is named by using any two points on the line. These points are marked with the
English alphabet.
• The line above is named as XY.
Line Segment A line segment is part of a line. It has two end points.
P Q R S T
Use your ruler and join any two of the points. The figure you get is a
line segment. The edges of a book can be considered as line segments.
The edge has a fixed starting point and ending point, and hence is a line
segment.

120 Geometry
• Line segments are named by putting a bar over the letters of the two end points.
A B
The line segment shown is named as AB.
CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
There is only one line segment between two given points.

Ray A ray is part of a line. It has one end point and goes endlessly (indefinitely) in the
other direction. The beams of light coming out of a bulb can be compared to rays.
• A ray is represented by an arrowhead on one side and a point on the other.
C D
• To name a ray, the end point is named first.
• The ray shown above can be read as CD.
• A line contains an unlimited number of rays—CA, DB, EB, and so on.
A C D E B

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN POINTS AND LINES


How many lines can be drawn through the point X?
We can draw so many lines passing through this point. X
• Lines that pass through the same point are known as concurrent lines.

Collinear Points
If three or more points lie in a straight line, the points are said to be collinear points.
l
X Y Z
X, Y, and Z are points on the line l. Point Y is between points X and Z. So X, Y, and Z are
collinear points.

Non-Collinear Points
Three points not lying on the same straight line are called non-collinear points.

A C

A, B, and C are non-collinear points.


CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• An unlimited number of lines can pass through a single point.
• Only three lines can be drawn through three non-collinear points.

Geometry 121
PLANE
In mathematics, the concept of a plane is an abstract concept.
The flat surface of a table suggests a portion of a plane.
Imagine that the surface of the table is extended in all
directions. What will we get? We will get a plane.
A plane is a flat surface that goes on endlessly or extends
indefinitely in all directions.
• A plane is a collection of an infinite number of points.
• A plane contains an unlimited number of lines, line segments, and rays.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
• Three non-collinear points can determine a plane.
• A line and a point can also determine a plane.

5. Name the different rays contained in the line given here.

A B C

ANGLE
Two rays with a common end point form an angle. Point O is the common end point of OA
and OB. The figure we get is angle AOB.
• The common end point (O) is called the vertex of the angle. A
• OA and OB are the arms (sides) of the angle.
• The symbol ∠ is read as angle.
In our day-to-day life, we can visualise angles in the slice of a pizza,

Naming an Angle
• An angle can be named in different ways. We can name an angle by using any three
letters of the English alphabet. For example, ∠ABC and ∠XYZ.
A
CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
The middle letter is always the vertex
1 of the angle.
B ∠ABC C B ∠B ∠1
• When three letters are used to name an angle, the letter showing the vertex is always
written in the middle.
• We can also name an angle by the vertex only. For example, ∠B and ∠D. P
• Angles can also be named by assigning a numeral to the angle. Q
For example, ∠1, ∠2, and ∠3.
In the figure given alongside, we have the following angles—
∠POQ, ∠QOR, and ∠POR O R
Interior and Exterior of an Angle
X An angle has two parts—interior and exterior.
R
S The points lying inside the angle form the interior of the angle.
A The points lying outside the angle form the exterior of the angle. In
B the given figure, points A and B are in the interior of ∠XYZ. Points

PROTRACTOR
An angle is measured with a protractor. A
protractor has two scales of measurements, the
inner scale and the outer scale. Angles from
0° to 180° are marked on both the scales. One
scale is read clockwise and the other is read
anticlockwise.

Measurement of Angles O

In the measurement of angles, the unit of measurement is called the degree. The symbol for
the degree is ‘°’ as in 30°, 45°, and 60°.
E
F
D

B G

A H
O
The number of degrees in an angle is called its measure. In the illustration above, the
number of degrees in ∠AOB is 10. So the measure of ∠AOB = 10°. The notation for

124 Geometry
the measure of the angle AOB (in degrees) is ‘m∠AOB = n’, where ‘n’ is a number
representing the measure of the angle. The symbol ‘m∠AOB’ is read as ‘the measure of
angle AOB.’
Let us see how the protractor can be used to measure the angles.
To measure an angle, follow the steps given below—
Step 1 Place the centre point of the
protractor on the vertex Q of the angle.
P
Step 2 Adjust the protractor in such a
way that the base line coincides with the
arm QR of the angle.
Step 3 Check the scale where the
baseline arm points to 0°.
Step 4 Read the measure of the angle R
where the other arm crosses the scale. Q
The measure of ∠PQR = 40° or m∠PQR = 40°.
Let us find the measure in degrees of each angle given here.
(a) m∠AOB = __________ (d) m∠FOA = __________

CONSTRUCTING ANGLES WITH A PROTRACTOR


To Construct an Angle
Example 1 Construct ∠ABC = 60°. B C
Step 1 Draw a ray BC.
Step 2 Place the centre of the protractor on the A
end point B of BC. Point B will form
the vertex point.
Step 3 Adjust the protractor such that the
baseline is along BC.
Step 4 Now measure carefully from the
0° from the opposite of the vertex
point (on the inner scale). B C
Step 5 Mark point A at 60°.
A
Step 6 Remove the protractor and join point
A to point B, to get BA.
  The measure of ∠ABC = 60°.

Example 2 Construct ∠TRS = 90°.


60°
Step 1 Draw a ray RS. B C
Step 2 Choose R as the vertex point, and place
the protractor carefully with its centre
point resting on point R.
Step 3 Adjust the protractor to coincide the baseline with RS. T
Step 4 Measure carefully from 0° to reach 90°.
  Mark this point as T.
90o
Step 5 Join T to R to get RT.
R S
m∠TRS = 90°

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
The measure of an angle is not affected by the lengths of the arms of the angle.

Geometry 127
Example 3 Draw an angle PQR = 260°. P
Solution To draw the reflex angle, 260°, we first draw the angle
obtained by subtracting 260° from 360°—that is, 360° − 260° = 100°.
Step 1 Draw a ray QR.
260o
Step 2 Place the centre of the protractor at the vertex Q and adjust Q
the baseline to be aligned to QR. R
Step 3 Use the inner scale of the protractor to measure the angle 100°. Mark the point as P.
Step 4 Remove the protractor and draw a line from point Q to point P.

PERIMETER BY USING A FORMULA


The perimeter of some polygons can be calculated directly by using a formula.
Perimeter of a Rectangle
In a rectangle, the perimeter is the sum of all its sides.
Therefore perimeter = l + b + l + b l
  = l + l + b + b
b b
  = 2 × l + 2 × b
  = 2 (l + b) l
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

140 Perimeter, Area, and Volume


CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
The length and breadth must have the same units while calculating the perimeter.

Example 1 Find the perimeter of a rectangle whose length


is 7 cm and breadth is 2.5 cm. 2.5 cm
Solution Length of the rectangle = 7 cm
Breadth of the rectangle = 2.5 cm 7 cm
Perimeter = 2 (length + breadth)
= 2 (7 + 2.5) cm
= 2 × 9.5 cm = 19 cm
Hence the perimeter of the rectangle is 19 cm.
Example 2 A rectangular table is 12 m long and 10 m wide. Find the perimeter of the
table.
Solution Length of the table = 12 m
Breadth of the table = 10 m
Perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
= 2(12 + 10) m = 2(22) m = 44 m
s
Perimeter of a Square
In a square, the perimeter is the sum of all its sides. s s
Therefore the perimeter = s + s + s + s = 4s.
Perimeter of a square = 4 × side s
Example 3 Find the perimeter of a square courtyard with sides of measure 36 m each.
Find the cost of fencing it at the rate of `5 per metre.
Solution
Side of the square = 36 m
Perimeter = 4 × side
= 4 × 36 m = 144 m
Cost of fencing 1 m = `5
Cost of fencing 144 m = `5 × 144 = `720

Perimeter of a Triangle
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the measures of the 3 sides.
Example 4 Find the perimeter of a triangle which has sides of
lengths 8 m, 11 m, and 14 m.
Solution Perimeter of a triangle = Sum of its 3 sides 14 m 8m
= (8 + 11 + 14) m = 33 m
The perimeter of the triangle is 33 m.

7. Find the perimeters of the following surfaces—
(a) Your pencil box (b) Your Maths exercise book (c) The top of your table

AREA
We have learnt that the perimeter is the boundary of a figure. What about the surface
covered by a figure?
The amount of surface covered by a figure is known as the area of the figure.
Just as we need a standard unit for the measurement of length, similarly, we need a standard
unit for the measurement of area.
A square of side 1 unit, like 1 cm or 1 m, is used as the standard unit of area.
1 cm
Given here is a square of side 1 cm. We say that the square has an area of
1 square centimetre. It can also be written as 1 sq. cm. 1 cm
Area is always measured in square units.
The figure given alongside shows a rectangle of length
5 cm and breadth 4 cm.
The rectangle is divided into a number of squares of side 4 cm
1 cm.
The rectangle is covered with 20 such squares.
Therefore the area of the rectangle is 20 sq. cm.
The number of unit squares needed to cover a surface is 5 cm
called its area.
142 Perimeter, Area, and Volume
Units Used for the Measurement of Area
• Small surfaces are measured in square centimetres, or sq. cm—for example, area of the
surface of a book.
• Large surfaces are measured in square metres, or sq. m—for example, area of a park.
• Larger surfaces are measured in square kilometres, or sq. km—for example, area of a
city or state.
It is not always possible to measure the area by counting squares. To find areas in such
cases, formulae are used.

3 units 5 units 10 units

10 units

2. Write a rule to calculate the area of a rectangle.


Observations From the above, we observe the following:

Dimensions of rectangles Area of the rectangles


(Total number of unit squares inside the
boundary)
Length = 5 units and Breadth = 3 units 15 sq. units = Number of squares along the length
× Number of squares along the breadth
Length = 10 units and Breadth = 3 units 30 sq. units = Number of squares along the length
× Number of squares along the breadth
Length = 5 units and Breadth = 6 units 30 sq. units = Number of squares along the length
× Number of squares along the breadth
Length = 10 units and Breadth = 6 units 60 sq. units = Number of squares along the length
× Number of squares along the breadth
From the above, the rule to calculate the area of a rectangle
= Number of squares along the length × Number of squares along the breadth
= Length × Breadth
Now find the area of the rectangles using the formula.
Dimensions of rectangles Area of the rectangles
(Length × Breadth)
Length = 5 units and Breadth = 3 units 5 × 3 sq. units = 15 sq. units
Length = 10 units and Breadth = 3 units 10 × 3 sq. units = 30 sq. units
Length = 5 units and Breadth = 6 units 5 × 6 sq. units = 30 sq. units
Length = 10 units and Breadth = 6 units 10 × 6 sq. units = 60 sq. units

Conclusion We see that the area of rectangles calculated by counting unit squares is same as the
area calculated using the formula.

144 Perimeter, Area, and Volume


From the above activity, we conclude that Area of rectangle = length × breadth.
Example 5 Find the area of a lawn of Example 6 The length of a rectangle is
length 25 m and breadth 15 m. 12 cm, and its width is 5 cm
Solution Length of the lawn = 25 m smaller than the length. Find
Breadth of the lawn = 15 m the area of the rectangle.
Area of the lawn Solution Length = 12 cm
= (25 × 15) sq. m Breadth = 12 cm – 5 cm = 7 cm
= 375 sq. m Area = Length × Breadth
= 12 × 7 sq. cm
= 84 sq. cm
Formula for the Area of a Square
We know that a square is a special kind of rectangle with all sides equal. It means that in a
square, the length is equal to the breadth.
   Area of square = side × side
Example 7 Find the area of a square with Example 8 Find the length of the side of a
side 5 cm. square of area 64 sq. cm.
Solution Area = side × side Solution Area = side × side
= 5 × 5 sq. cm 64 = side × side
= 25 sq. cm We know that 8 × 8 = 64.
Thus side of the square = 8 cm.
Example 9 Find the area of a square park whose perimeter is 72 m.
Solution Perimeter of the square park = 72 m
Perimeter = 4 × Side
Side of the square park = Perimeter

72 m
Side of the square park = = 18 m

ESTIMATION OF AREA OF IRREGULAR SHAPES


Geeta wants to know the space occupied by her pencil box.
The shape of her pencil box is nearly oval. × 1 2 3 4 5 6 ×
She uses a squared grid paper and traces the pencil box as 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
shown in the figure. Then she numbers all the complete 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22
squares. There are a few squares which are not covered × 23 24 25 26 27 28 ×
completely. To find the area she will have to consider partial
squares also besides complete squares.
The area that she calculates is an approximation of the actual area. To estimate the area in
such cases, we use a grid paper and follow the given steps.
Step 1 Count the complete (whole) squares.
Step 2 Count the squares that are more than half but not complete. Treat these as 1 whole
squares.
Step 3 Count the half squares. Treat 2 half squares as 1 whole square.
Step 4 Ignore all squares that are less than half.

Perimeter, Area, and Volume 147


Step 5 
Add the number of squares in steps 1, 2, and 3. The sum is the required
approximate area.
For the pencil box,
Number of whole squares = 28;
Number of half squares = 0; Number of more than half squares = 4;
Total area = (28 + 4) sq. units = 32 sq. units.

VOLUME
Geeta now wants to know the space inside her pencil box. Her teacher explained to her that
the space inside the box is its volume.
What is volume?
The amount of space taken by a solid is known as its volume.
We have seen that standard units are required for the measurement of
perimeter and area. For volume also, a standard unit is required.
A cube of side 1 unit—like, 1 mm, 1 cm, or 1 m is used as the
standard unit of volume. 8 cubic cm 9 cubic cm
Its volume is 1 cubic mm, 1 cubic cm, or 1 cubic m, respectively.
Volume is always measured in cubic units.
We can find the volume of a solid by fitting in unit cubes in the solid and counting them.
For example, the volumes of the given solids are 8 cubic cm and 9 cubic cm as 8 and 9 unit
cubes fitted inside these respectively.

Units Used for the Measurement of Volume


• For very small containers, cubes of side 1 mm are used. Their volume is measured in
cubic mm or cu. mm.

148 Perimeter, Area, and Volume


• For small containers, cubes of side 1 cm are used. Their volume is measured in cubic cm
or cu. cm.
• For large containers, cubes of side 1 m are used. Their volume is measured in cubic m,
or cu. m.
Look at the figures given below and find the volumes by counting the unit cubes.

Volume of a Cuboid
Let us do the following activity to find the volume of a cuboid:

Mat h s Ac t i v i t y
Aim To find the volume of a cuboid
You will need Cubes of length, width, and height 1 cm and a cuboidal box
Steps
1. Divide the class into groups of 3 students.
2. Give the following instructions to each group:
• Take a box and fill the bottom of the box with one layer
of cubes.
• How many cubes make up the length, width, and height
of the bottom layer?
length = ______, width = _______, and height = ______
• How many cubes are placed on the bottom or first layer?
• In a similar manner, continue filling the box, layer by layer.
• How many layers of cubes fit in the box? ____________
• How many cubes are there in each layer? ___________
• How many cubes can the box hold altogether? ____________
3. Thus the volume of the cuboidal box is ________ cu. cm
Reflections
• Find the connection among the number of cubes used to fill each layer, the number of layers,
and the box’s volume?
Volume of the box = number of 1 cm cubes in each layer × number of layers

The number of cubes in each layer is the area of The number of layers is the height
the base of the box. It is the length times the width. of the box.

Perimeter, Area, and Volume 149


Thus volume of the box = base area × height
= length × width × height
• How many unit cubes would be required for each layer if the length, breadth, and height
of the box were 5 units, 4 units, and 2 units, respectively? How many unit cubes would be
required to fill the cuboidal box?
Number of unit cubes required for each layer =  5 units × 4 units
= 20 sq. units
Number of unit cubes required to fill the cuboidal box
= length × width × height
= 5 units × 4 units × 2 units = 40 cu. units

Thus from the above activity, we get Volume of a cuboid = length × breadth × height.
Example 11 Find the volume of a cuboid Solution 
of length 8 cm, breadth 4 cm, Volume of the room (l × b × h) = 792 cu. m
and height 6 cm. Area of the floor (l × b) = 132 sq. m
Solution   Volume of the room = Area of the floor × h
Volume = length × breadth × height
Volume of the room
Volume = 8 cm × 4 cm × 6 cm h =
Area of the floor
= 192 cu. cm
792
Example 12 If the volume of a room is = m=6m
792 cu. m and the area of the 132
floor is 132 sq. m, find the Thus the height of the room = 6 m.
height of the room.

CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
Volume = Area of base × height

Volume of a Cube
We know that a cube is a special cuboid with length = breadth = height.
Volume of a cube = side × side × side
Example 13 Find the volume of a cube of side 4 cm.
Solution Volume = side × side × side
4 cm

= 4 cm × 4 cm × 4 cm = 64 cu. cm
Example 14 A cubical block of wood was cut into 8 equal cubes of
side 4 cm. What is the volume of the block of wood? cm
4
4 cm

150 Perimeter, Area, and Volume


Solution Volume of a cube = side × side × side
= 4 cm × 4 cm × 4 cm = 64 cu. cm
Volume of the block of wood = 8 × 64 cu. cm = 512 cu. cm
Example 15 How many ice cubes of edge 2 cm can fit into an ice tray of measure
2 cm × 4 cm × 9 cm?
Solution Volume of the ice tray = 2 cm × 4 cm × 9 cm = 72 cu. cm
Side of an ice cube = 2 cm
Volume of an ice cube = 2 cm × 2 cm × 2 cm = 8 cu. cm
Volume of the ice tray
Number of ice cubes =

8
Thus 9 ice cubes can fit in the ice tray.

METRIC MEASURES
We have learnt about the metric measures in our earlier classes. Metre, gram, and litre are
the standard units of length, weight, and capacity, respectively. There are other units of
measurement available to measure smaller as well as larger lengths, weights, and capacities.
There is a definite relationship among the various units of metric measures. We put different
prefixes to the standard units of metric measures. The most commonly used prefixes are
deca, kilo, and hecto for higher units, and deci, centi, and milli for lower units.

AVERAGE
You must have come across following statements in your daily life.
• What is the average consumption of sugar in a week?
• What are your average marks in maths?
• What was the average temperature in April?
In all the above statement a word ‘average’ is used. What do you understand by an average?
Average is a number which gives us the central, or middle, value.
Average can be found only of like measures or similar quantities.
Add all the given quantities and divide by the total number of quantities to get the average.
Sum of all the quantities
Average =
Number of quantities (addends)

SUBJECT INTEGRATION
A real world example of the average is par. Par refers to the average expected
score in Golf. Every hole on a golf course is rated as a par-3, a par-4, or a
par-5. If a hole is a par 4, then the average expected score is 4 strokes.

Example 19 Smita spent `76 on vegetables on Monday, `110 on Tuesday, and `120 on
Wednesday. What is the average amount of money she spent on these three
days?
Solution To find the average, we first find the total money spent.
Total money spent = `76 + `110 + `120 = `306
Number of addends (number of days) = 3

164 Measurements

You will need Stopwatch and a notebook
Steps
1. Divide the class into pairs. One from each pair has to perform an activity and the other one
has to record the time.

172 Time
2. Make a list of 6 to 8 fitness activities which
you can do in the class for example, jump
at your place 5 times, skip rope, push-ups,
squats, etc.
3. Record how long the first activity takes as
shown in the table.
4. Take turns to do each activity in each pair and
record time for each activity.
5. Now convert the recorded time (in seconds)
into minutes and seconds.

Activity Time taken (in seconds)

2. Jumping rope 50 times

Converting Days into Hours


1 day = 24 hours
To convert days into hours, multiply the number of days by 24.
Examples 1. 11 days = (11 × 24) hours = 264 hours
2. 5 days 7 hours = (5 × 24) hours + 7 hours
= 120 hours + 7 hours
= 127 hours
Converting Hours into Minutes
1 hour = 60 minutes
To convert hours into minutes, multiply the number of hours by 60.
Examples 1. 15 hours = (15 × 60) minutes = 900 minutes
2. 8 hours 35 minutes = (8 × 60) minutes + 35 minutes
= 480 minutes + 35 minutes
= 515 minutes
Converting Minutes into Seconds
1 minute = 60 seconds
To convert minutes into seconds, multiply the number of minutes by 60.

ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF TIME


Example 1 Add 5 hours 30 minutes to 6 hours 25 minutes.

Add the hours and minutes separately.
+ 5 hours 30 minutes
11 hours 55 minutes

176 Time
SUBJECT INTEGRATION
Spiders spin their webs at different speeds. You will find that no two spider webs are the same. A
spider web is also called ‘Orb Web’ which is a series of wheel-shaped, concentric outlines, with spokes
extending from the center of the web. It takes about an hour for the average spider to spin an elaborate
web of silk thread.
A spider take 30 minutes to spin its web and an other take 45 minutes. If the first spider started at 3.45
p.m. and the second at 3.30 p.m., which spider finished first?
Example 2 Add 6 hours 50 minutes 40 seconds and 4 hours 40 minutes 30 seconds.
Solution 6 hours 50 minutes 40 seconds
+ 4 hours 40 minutes 30 seconds
10 hours 90 minutes 70 seconds
Here we regroup 70 seconds = 1 minute 10 seconds.
So we have 90 minutes + 1 minute = 91 minutes.
Again, we regroup 91 minutes = 1 hour 31 minutes.
So 10 hours 90 minutes 70 seconds = 11 hours 31 minutes 10 seconds.
Example 3 Subtract 2 hours 20 minutes from 8 hours 45 minutes.
Solution 8 hours 45 minutes
Subtract the hours and minutes separately.
− 2 hours 20 minutes
6 hours 25 minutes
Example 4 Subtract 6 hours 50 minutes from 9 hours 20 minutes.
Solution Since 20 < 50, regroup hours and minutes.
9 hours = 8 hours 60 minutes
So 9 hours 20 minutes = 8 hours 80 minutes.
Now we subtract. 8 hours 80 minutes
− 6 hours 50 minutes
2 hours 30 minutes
Example 5 Sita had to deliver a birthday cake, for which she was given 8 hours. She
delivered the cake in 6 hours 25 minutes. How much time did she save?
Solution Regroup 8 hours = 7 hours 60 minutes.
Now subtract minutes and hours separately. We get
(60 − 25) minutes = 35 minutes and (7 − 6) hours = 1 hour.
So Sita saved 1 hour 35 minutes.
Example 6 Simmi reaches school at 8.30 a.m. and leaves for home at 1.00 p.m. How
many hours does she spend in school?
Solution 
Regroup 12.00 hours = 11 hours 60 minutes.

Time 177
So we subtract 8 hours 30 minutes from 11 hours 60 minutes. Hours Minutes
Also from 12.00 noon to 1.00 p.m. = 1 hour 11 60
3 hours 30 minutes
− 8 30
+ 1 hour 00 minutes
3 30
4 hours 30 minutes
Simmi spends 4 hours 30 minutes in school.

11 MONEY

You must have seen your parents manage their bank account statements using
the bank passbooks. All the transactions—withdraws and deposits—are given in
tabular format in a bank passbook.
Mr Jagdish had a bank account balance of `78,590.60 at the end of January 2021.
Since then, he has made a deposit of `56,430 and written a cheque for `12,500.
On 21 February 2021, he estimated his account balance to be `1,20,450.60.

Essential Questions
1. Find out if Mr Jagdish is correct.
Since Mr Jagdish deposited `56,430 and wrote off a cheque of `12,500, his balance after
these transactions must be:
`78,590.60 – `12,500 + `56,430 = `1,22,520.60
Thus his estimate is right as it is close to the actual value.
2. Find out about terms like ‘withdraw’, ‘deposit’, ‘account balance’, and ‘writing cheque’ and

UNITARY METHOD
Srijan wants to buy a pack of pencils. Brand A offers a pack
of 10 pencils which is available for `35 and brand B offers
a pack of 8 pencils which is available for `26. Which pack
should Srijan buy to get a better deal if the quality offered
by both brands is same?
To decide which is the better deal, we need to find the price of
one pencil of each pack.
Finding the price of one item of a kind is called finding the unit price, and the method is
called the unitary method.
Price of one pencil of pack of brand A Price of one pencil of pack of brand B
10 pencils cost = `35 8 pencils cost = `26
Cost of 1 pencil = `35 ÷ 10 Cost of 1 pencil = 126 ÷ 8
= `3.5 or `3.50 = `3.25
The cost of 1 pencil of a pack of brand B is less than that of a pack of brand A. So Srijan
should buy pack B to get a better deal.
Example 1 Saurabh bought 4 candies for `36.
How much money will he pay to buy
11 candies?
Solution First, we have to find the price of 1 candy.
Cost of 4 candies = `36 If the unit price is known, we
Cost of 1 candy = `36 ÷ 4 can find the price of many
= `9 items of the same kind.
Cost of 11 candies = `11 × 9 = `99
Saurabh will have to pay `99 for 11 candies.

PROFIT AND LOSS
Mr Sharma is a wholesale dealer of pencils. He buys pencils from the factory and sells
them. He bought pencils for `110 per box and sold the same for `125 per box. Naturally, he
has earned some money in the whole transaction.
He has earned `125 – `110 = `15 per box.
`110 is called the cost price (CP) of the pencils.
`125 is called the selling price (SP) of the pencils.
`15 is the profit earned by Mr Sharma.
• The price at which an item is bought is called the cost price.
• The price at which an item is sold is called the selling price.
• The money earned in a transaction when the selling price is more than the cost price, is
called the profit.
Profit = SP – CP
Now assume that Mr Sharma had to sell the pencils for `105 per box.
Here the selling price is less than the cost price. Mr Sharma would have to bear a loss.
• The money lost when the cost price is more than the selling price is called the loss.
Loss = CP – SP
Example 2 Aman bought a football for `375 and sold it for `450. Find his profit or loss.
Solution Cost price  = `375
Selling price = `450
Here the selling price is more than the cost price. So there is a profit.
Profit     = SP – CP
      = `450 – `375
      = `75
Aman made a profit of `75.
Example 3 Shrishti bought a toy for `228 and later sold it to her house help’s son for `80.
How much profit or loss did she make?
Solution Cost price (CP) = `228
Selling price (SP) = `80
Here the cost price is more than the selling price. So there is a loss.
Loss = CP – SP
= `228 – `80 = `148
The loss is of `148.
Calculating Cost Price and Selling Price
To find profit or loss, we need to know the CP and SP. If SP > CP, there is a profit, and if
SP < CP, there is a loss.

188 Money
Profit = SP – CP and Loss = CP – SP.
We can find the third quantity if two quantities are known in the above formulas.
Calculating cost price
To find CP when profit (P) is given, we use the formula—
CP = SP – P
To find CP when loss (L) is given, CONCEPT H I G H L I G H T S
we use the formula— • Profit is also known as gain.
CP = SP + L

Example 4 John sold a shirt for `1,175 at a profit of `275. Find the price at which he
bought it.
Solution Selling price = `1,175
Profit = `275
Cost price = Selling price – Profit
= `1,175 – `275 = `900
The cost price of the shirt was `900.
Example 5 Srijan sold a pair of shoes for `540.00. He suffered a loss of `41.50 in the deal.
What was the cost price of the shoes?
Solution Selling price = `540.00
Loss = `41.50
Cost price = Selling price + Loss
= `540.00 + `41.50 = `581.50
The cost price of the pair of shoes was `581.50.
Calculating selling price
To find SP when profit is given, we use the formula—
SP = CP + P
To find SP when Loss is given, we use the formula—
SP = CP – L
Example 6 A shopkeeper bought 6 kg of mangoes at `60 per kg and sold all of them at a
profit of `132. What was the selling price of mangoes per kilogram?
Solution Cost price = 6 × `60
= `360
Profit = `132
Selling price = Cost price + Profit
= `360 + `132 = `492
The selling price of 6 kg mangoes was `492.
Thus selling price of mangoes per kilogram = `492 ÷ 6 = `82.

Money 189
Example 7 Tejas bought a sack of red split lentils for `1,305 and sold it for `128 less.
What was the selling price of the sack of lentils?
Solution Cost price = `1,305
Loss = `128
Selling price = Cost price – Loss
= `1,305 – `128 = `1,177
Tejas sold the sack of lentils for `1,177.

TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION

These days we use digital money more often than paper or even plastic money. Digital currency
is a form of currency that is available only in digital or electronic form. Transactions done through
NEFT (National Electronic Fund Transfer), IMPS (Immediate Payment Service), UPI (Unified Payments
Interface), etc. come under the form of digital transactions and require active Internet connection.
The next evolution in money is cryptocurrency. This is different from kind of money that we use in
daily life. It is actually binary data working as a medium of exchange where ownership of money is
recorded in a computer database.

12 SYMMETRY AND PATTERNS

Castles are medieval fortified structures generally the residence of the king of the
territory in which they stood.
People often build sandcastles for fun when they visit seashore. Man-made objects
like buildings, bridges, vehicles, etc., display symmetry.
Nature provides symmetry and patterns in flowers, animals, etc. Look around you
and discover these patterns.

Essential Questions
1. What do you observe in the above picture of castle?
2. How do you find whether a shape or an object is symmetrical or not?
3. Have you ever solved a puzzle using the concept of patterns? How did the concept of
patterns help in solving the puzzle?

194 Symmetry and Patterns


SYMMETRY
When a shape or a figure is divided into
two parts of equal shapes and sizes, we
call the shape or figure symmetrical.
The phenomenon is called symmetry.
(a) Human face (b) Wasp (c) Crab
All the above objects are symmetrical.
If we draw a line from the middle of each object, we get perfect halves.
The line which divides a shape or figure into two identical halves is called the axis of
symmetry.
Look at the shape given below. Draw an imaginary line passing horizontally through the
centre.
Are both sides the same?  
No.

Now draw a line passing vertically through the centre.


Are both sides the same?  
Yes.

The heart shape has only one axis of symmetry.


A shape can have vertical axis of symmetry, horizontal axis of symmetry, or both.
Next look at a few letters of the English alphabet.

Vertical axis Horizontal axis 2 axes of No axis of


of symmetry of symmetry symmetry symmetry

Let us try to make a word using letters with vertical axis of symmetry.

Now let us make a word using letters with horizontal axis of symmetry.

Now it is time to discover symmetry in decorative objects by doing the following activity:

3. CRITICAL THINKING Write a word using the letters of the English alphabet having
(a) a horizontal axis of symmetry and (b) a vertical axis of symmetry.

196 Symmetry and Patterns


SYMMETRY IN PLANE SHAPES
Plane shapes also have symmetry. A plane shape is said to be symmetrical about a line if the
line divides the shape into two equal halves.
Some shapes have one line of symmetry, some have two, and some have even more.

One line of One line of Two lines of Two lines of


symmetry symmetry symmetry symmetry

Three lines of Four lines of No line of

TESSELLATION
A tessellation is a collection of plane or simple figures that fills the plane to form a pattern
without leaving any space or overlaps in between.
Notice how the shapes fit together to form a pattern. This is called tessellation.

  

REFLECTION
A reflection results in a mirror image of an object. In a reflection, a shape gets flipped with
respect to the mirror line or line of reflection to face the opposite direction. In the following
examples the object is reflected along the dotted mirror line.

RR R
REEF
FLLE

13 DATA HANDLING

Students of class V have to choose their class monitor. Jaya, Shikha, Manjeet, and
Joseph are the candidates. The students have to vote for one of them. The class
teacher decides to do a quick voting. She asks the students to raise their hands if
they want the person whose name is being called out to be the monitor.

Essential Questions
1. How will voting help in taking the decision?
Voting will help in finding the most popular student among the candidates.
2. Do you know any other situation where a voting or a survey help?

In this chapter, we will learn about the various ways of collecting and representing
data.

COLLECTION OF DATA
What is Data?
Information in the form of numerical figures that is used to analyse, to interpret, and to
make decisions is called data.
The data is collected by observation, questionnaires, voting, surveys, measurement, etc.
Before collecting data, we need to know what we would use it for. Suppose we have to
collect data on any of the following—
1. Performance of students of class V in Mathematics
2. Performance of Indian Cricket Team in 2021
3. The weather in your city
What kind of data would you need in the above situations?
The data collected in each case will be as follows—
1. Marks obtained by each student in Mathematics
2. The number of matches played, won, and lost by the Indian Cricket Team in the year
2021
3. Figures of rainfall, temperature, time of sunrise, sunset, and so on

208 Data Handling


Unless and until the appropriate data is collected, we cannot have the desired information.
When we collect data, we have to record and organise to make it easy to understand.

ORGANISATION OF DATA
Organisation of data helps in comparing and contrasting information presented on different
kinds of graphs through which a conclusion can be drawn. Let us understand some of the
ways we can organise data.

Tally Chart
A tally chart is a quick and easy way to count how many items are there in each category.
We represent each observation by a vertical stroke and every fifth observation is represented
by crossing the four strokes diagonally .

Frequency
The number of times a particular observation occurs in the data is known as frequency. For
example, if an observation occurs 6 times in data, its frequency is 6.

Bar Graphs
One of the most common and effective ways of representing data is by means of a bar graph.
A bar graph represents numerical data with a number of rectangular bars of equal width.
The height of each bar in the bar graph represents the frequency. Bar graphs can be
horizontal or vertical. Every bar graph must have the following features—
1. title of a bar graph;
2. the horizontal and vertical scales used; and
3. the labelling of the scales.
Look at the bar graph shown below.

Birthday months of students of class V

Horizontal scale 1 square = 1 month
Vertical scale 1 square = 1 student

The bar graph represents the birthday months of the students of class V.
The months have been shown along the horizontal axis and the number of students along
the vertical axis.
The scales used are the following—
Horizontal scale 1 square = 1 month
Vertical scale 1 square = 1 student
We can answer the following questions by reading the bar graph—
1. Total number of students in class V = 44
2. Month which has the most birthdays = November
3. Month which has no birthday = October
4. Months that have the same number of birthdays = April, August, and December

Drawing a Bar Graph


The given table shows the number of cars sold by a company in the first half of 2019.
Months January February March April May June
Number of Cars 700 500 900 200 600 400
Let us represent the data by means of a bar graph.
1. Take months on the horizontal axis and the number of cars on the vertical axis.
2. Consider the scale—
Horizontal scale 1 square = 1 month
Vertical scale 1 square = 100 cars
3. Six bars are to be shown on the horizontal axis as the data is for six months.
4. Leave equal space between two bars.
5. Give a suitable title to the bar graph.

Steps
1. Note down the maximum temperatures of the past seven days from newspapers.
2. Draw a table and write the data in the table.

3. Make a bar graph for the data in the table by choosing an appropriate scale.

SUBJECT INTEGRATION
The four main blood groups can be divided into total 8 blood groups as per Rh antigen presented in red
blood cells: A+, A–, B+, B–, AB+, AB–, O+, and O–.
Collect the data of blood group of the students of your class. Represent the collected information
through a bar graph.

Circle Graphs
Circle graphs, also called pie charts, are a type of graph used to represent a part of a whole
relationship. They are used to compare different parts of the whole amount.
1. They are circle-shaped graphs with the entire circle representing the whole.
2. The circle is then split into parts or sections.
3. Each part/section is proportional in size to the amount it represents. Therefore it is easy
to make comparisons.
Example  The table shows the choice of restaurants of 32 students of class V. Represent
the same information on a circle graph.
Restaurant King’s Burger Desi House Pizza House Chaat Wala

Number of students 16 8 4 4

King’s Burger 16 out of 32 = 1 of the total.
