Rs Aggarwal Class 6 Math Solution Chapter 5- Fractions
Exercise 5D
Solution:
Like fractions: Fractions having the same denominator are called like fractions.
Examples: `frac\{4}{12}` , `frac\{6}{12}` , `frac\{3}{12}` , `frac\{7}{12}` , `frac\{8}{12}`
Unlike fractions: Fractions having different denominators are called unlike fractions.
Example: `frac\{7}{10}` , `frac\{3}{5}`, `frac\{5}{9}` , `frac\{7}{12}` , `frac\{13}{24}`
2. Convert `frac\{3}{5}`, `frac\{7}{10}` , `frac\{8}{15}` and `frac\{11}{30}` into like fractions.
Solution:
We know that like fractions having same denominator.
So, We do,
L.C.M of 5, 10, 15 and 30 = 30
Now, we convert the given fractions into equivalent fractions with 30 as the denominator.
`frac\{3}{5}` = `frac\{3 × 6}{5 × 6}` = `frac\{18}{30}`
`frac\{7}{10}` = `frac\{7 × 3}{10 × 3}` = `frac\{21}{30}`
`frac\{8}{15}`` = `frac\{8 × 2}{15× 2}` = `frac\{16}{30}`
`frac\{11}{30}` = `frac\{11× 1}{30× 1}` = `frac\{11}{30}`
Hence, the required like fractions are `frac\{18}{30}`, `frac\{21}{30}`, `frac\{16}{30}`, and `frac\{11}{30}`
3. Convert `frac\{1}{4}` , `frac\{5}{8}` , `frac\{7}{12}` and `frac\{13}{24}` into like fractions.
Solution:
We know that like fractions having same denominator.
So, We do,
L.C.M of 4, 8, 12 and 24= 24
Now, we convert the given fractions into equivalent fractions with 24as the denominator.
`frac\{1}{4}` = `frac\{1× 6}{4 × 6}` = `frac\{6}{24}`
`frac\{5}{8}` = `frac\{5× 3}{8× 3}` = `frac\{15}{24}`
`frac\{7}{12}` = `frac\{7× 2}{12× 2}` = `frac\{14}{24}`
`frac\{13}{24}` = `frac\{13× 1}{24× 1}` = `frac\{13}{24}`
Hence, the required like fractions are `frac\{6}{24}`, `frac\{15}{24}`, `frac\{14}{24}`, and `frac\{13}{24}`

28. Lalita read 30 pages of a book containing 100 pages while Sarita read `frac\{2}{5}` of the book. Who read more?
Solution:
Lalita reads 30 pages out of 100 pages.
Sarita read `frac\{2}{5}` of the same book = `frac\{2}{5}` of 100 pages = `frac\{2}{5}` × 100 = `frac\{cancel 200^40}{cancel 5}` = 40 pages
Hence, Sarita read more pages than Lalita as 40 is greater than 30.
29. Rafiq exercised for `frac\{2}{3}` hour, while Rohit exercised for `frac\{3}{4}` hour. Who exercised for a longer time?
Solution:
To know who spent more time on exercise,
We have to compare `frac\{2}{3}` hour with `frac\{3}{4}` hour .
On cross multiplying: 2 × 4 = 8 and 3 × 3 = 9 Clearly, 8 < 9
∴ `frac\{2}{3}` < `frac\{3}{4}`
Hence, Rohit exercised for a longer time.
