Real Numbers/ Extra Questions – Chapter 1
Answer the following:
- Write the following rational numbers in decimal form:
i) 37/100
ii) 24/50 - Which of the following rational numbers have the terminating decimal expansion?
i) 13/20
ii) 37/40 - Express each of the following as a product of its prime factors.
i) 343
ii) 1092 - Find the LCM and HCF of the following pairs of integers and verify that LCM x HCF = Product of the two numbers.
i) 27, 33 - Find the LCM and HCF of the following integers by applying the Prime factorisation method?
i) 14, 42, 70
ii) 21, 27, 33
ANSWERS:
- i) 37/100 = 0.37
ii) 24/50 = 48/100 = 0.48 - If the denominator has only factors of 2 and 5 , then it has terminating expansion.
i) Here we have 20 = 2 x 2 x 5
The prime factors of 20 are 2 and 5 only. Hence 13/20 has a terminating decimal expansion.
ii) We have 40 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 5
The prime factors of 40 are 2 and 5 only. Hence 37/40 has a terminating decimal expansion. - i) 343 = 7 x 7 x 7
ii) 1092 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 13 - i) We have 27 = 3 x 3 x 3
33 = 3 x 11
Therefore, LCM (27, 33) = 3 x 3 x 3 x 11 = 297
HCF (27, 33) = 3
Now LCM x HCF = 297 x 3 = 891
Product of 27 and 33 = 27 x 33 = 891
So verified. - i) First we can write as product of prime factors.
14 = 2 x 7
42 = 2 x 3 x 7
70 = 2 x 5 x 7
Therefore, HCF (14, 42, 70) = 2 x 7 = 14
LCM (14, 42, 70) = 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210
ii) First we can write as product of prime factors.
21 = 3 x 7
27 = 3 x 3 x 3
33 = 3 x 11
Therefore, HCF (21, 27, 33) = 3
LCM (21, 27, 33) = 3 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 11 = 2079.
