MATHEMATICS Master Mathematical Thinking

Grade 6


Fo re wo rd

Mathematics is not just another subject. It is an integral part of our lives. It shapes the very foundation of our understanding, personality and interaction with the world around us. However, due to the subject’s abstract nature, the stress of achieving high academic scores and complex teaching methods, most children develop a fear of mathematics from an early age. This fear not only hinders their mathematical thinking, logical reasoning and general problem solving abilities, but also negatively impacts their performance in other academic subjects. This creates a learning gap which widens over the years. The NEP 2020 has distinctly recognised the value of mathematical thinking among young learners and the significance of fostering love for this subject by making its learning engaging and entertaining. Approaching maths with patience and relatable real-world examples can help nurture an inspiring relationship with the subject. It is in this spirit that Uolo has introduced the Imagine Mathematics product for elementary grades (1 to 8). This product’s key objective is to eliminate the fear of mathematics by making learning exciting, relatable and meaningful for children. This is achieved by making a clear connection between mathematical concepts and examples from daily life. This opens avenues for children to connect with and explore maths in pleasant, relatable, creative and fun ways. This product, as recommended by the NEP 2020 and the recent NCF draft, gives paramount importance to the development of computational and mathematical thinking, logical reasoning, problem solving and mathematical communication, with the help of carefully curated content and learning activities. Imagine Mathematics strongly positions itself on the curricular and pedagogical approach of the Gradual Release of Responsibility (GRR), which has been highly recommended by the NEP 2020, the latest NCF Draft and other international educational policies. In this approach, while learning any new mathematical concept, learners first receive sufficient modelling, and then are supported to solve problems in a guided manner before eventually taking complete control of the learning and application of the concept on their own. In addition, the book is technologically empowered and works in sync with a parallel digital world which contains immersive gamified experiences, video solutions and practice exercises among other things. Interactive exercises on the digital platform make learning experiential and help in concrete visualisation of abstract mathematical concepts. In Imagine Mathematics, we are striving to make high quality maths learning available for all children across the country. The product maximizes the opportunities for self-learning while minimising the need for paid external interventions, like after-school or private tutorial classes. The book adapts some of the most-acclaimed, learner-friendly pedagogical strategies. Each concept in every chapter is introduced with the help of real-life situations and integrated with children’s experiences, making learning flow seamlessly from abstract to concrete. Clear explanations and simple steps are provided to solve problems in each concept. Interesting facts, error alerts and enjoyable activities are smartly sprinkled throughout the content to break the monotony and make learning holistic. Most importantly, concepts are not presented in a disconnected fashion, but are interlinked and interwoven in a sophisticated manner across strands and grades to make learning scaffolded, comprehensive and meaningful. As we know, no single content book can resolve all learning challenges, and human intervention and support tools are required to ensure its success. Thus, Imagine Mathematics not only offers the content books, but also comes with teacher manuals that guide the pedagogical transactions that happen in the classroom; and a vast parallel digital world with lots of exciting materials for learning, practice and assessment. In a nutshell, Imagine Mathematics is a comprehensive and unique learning experience for children. On this note, we welcome you to the wonderful world of Imagine Mathematics. In the pages that follow, we will embark on a thrilling journey to discover wonderful secrets of mathematics—numbers, operations, geometry and measurements, data and probability, patterns and symmetry, algebra and so on and so forth. Wishing all the learners, teachers and parents lots of fun-filled learning as you embark upon this exciting journey with Uolo. ii


We know that numbers are basic units of mathematics and are used for counting, measuring and comparing quantities. We have also previously learned that each digit in a number has a value, which we call the place value. Let us take a 2-digit number as an example! The digit on the left is at ten’s place while the digit on the right is at one’s place.

Similarly, in the number 2548, 5 represents 5 hundreds, or 500. However, in the number 56, 5 represents 5 tens, or 50. Therefore, even if a digit is same, its value always depends on where it is in the number. Th

The Gradual Release of Responsibility (GRR) is a highly effective pedagogical approach that empowers students to learn progressively by transitioning the responsibility from the teacher to the students. This method involves comprehensive scaffolding—including modelling, guided practice, and ultimately fostering independent application of concepts. GRR, endorsed and promoted by both the NEP 2020 and NCF, plays a pivotal role in equipping teachers to facilitate age-appropriate learning outcomes and enabling learners to thrive. The GRR methodology forms the foundation of the IMAGINE Mathematics product. Within each chapter, every unit follows a consistent framework: 1. I Do (entirely teacher-led)

2. We Do (guided practice for learners supported by the teacher) 3. You Do (independent practice for learners) GRR Steps

Large Numbers

Let's Recall The numbers used in our daily lives are written using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. We can form various numbers ranging from 1-digit up to 7-digit numbers. Such numbers are written using commas after every period, starting from the ones period. For example, let us say the population of a country is 2347709. This number can be written using commas by representing it in a place value chart. Lakhs

Understanding Roman Numerals Real Life Connect

Krish went to the market to buy a clock. At a shop, there were some clocks with numbers 1 to 12 and some with unusual numbers. He was confused and could not read these unusual numbers.

Roman Numerals The clock with unusual numbers is another way of writing digits up to 9 except 0. Such numbers are called Roman numbers. This is the oldest system of writing numbers and is called the Roman number system. It is still in use in some cases like numbered lists and clock faces. In this system, we use seven basic symbols to write different numbers. This system does not have the concept of place value, so there is no representation for 0. Roman Numbers

Numbers in the Indian System

100

1000

There are several rules to writing Roman numbers. Rule 1: A Roman number symbol cannot be repeated more than three times. Repeating it means adding its value as many times as it is repeated. XXX = 10 + 10 + 10 = 30

CC = 100 + 100 = 200

Rule 2: If a symbol of a smaller value is written to the right of a symbol of the greater value, the resulting number is equal to the sum of the symbols. VI = 5 + 1 = 6 CI = 100 + 1 = 101 Rule 3: If a symbol of smaller value is written to the left of (before) a symbol of greater value, the resulting numeral is equal to the difference of the symbols. IX = 10 – 1 = 9 and XC = 100 – 10 = 90 Rule 4: If a smaller numeral is placed between two larger numerals, it is always subtracted from the larger numeral to the right. XIV = 10 + (5 – 1) = 14 and MCD = 1000 + (500 – 100) = 1400 2

Remember! The symbols V, L and D can never be repeated or subtracted, whereas the symbols I, X, C and M can be repeated up to three times.


So, the numbers on the clock that Krish saw are read in the way given. XII= 10 + 1 + 1 = 12 I=1

XI = 10 + 1 = 11

II = 1 + 1 = 2

X = 10

IX = 10 – 1 = 9

III = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3

VIII = 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 8 VII = 5 + 1 + 1 = 7

IV = 5 – 1 = 4

VI = 5 + 1 = 6

V=5

Write the number form of the Roman numbers.

Example 1

1 CDXXXIX = CD + X + X + X + IX

2 MCMLXXXIV = M + CM + L + X + X + X + IV

= (500 – 100) + 10 + 10 + 10 + (10 – 1)

= 1000 + (1000 – 100) + 50 + 10 + 10 + 10 + (5 – 1)

= 400 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 9 = 439

= 1000 + 900 + 50 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 4 = 1984

Write the Roman numbers for the numbers.

Example 2

1 97 = 90 + 7

2 1567 = 1000 + 500 + (50 + 10) + 7

= (100 – 10) + 7 = XC + VII = XCVII

= M + D + LX + VII = MDLXVII

Error Alert!

Remember! The symbol I can be subtracted only from

215 = 100 + 100 + 5 + 5 + 5 = CCVVV

V and X whereas the symbol X can be subtracted only from L and C. Similarly, the

215 = 100 + 100 + 10 + 5 = CCXV

Do It Together

symbol C can be subtracted only from D and M.

Every digit in a number has a fixed position according to which the digit has its value. The fixed position is called the place of a digit, and the value of the digit is called the place value of the digit. The face value is the digit itself. To find the place value of any digit, we multiply the digit by its value in a place of the number, whereas the face value does not depend on the position of the digit in the number. For example, 277534122 can be represented as: 277534122

Write the face value and the place value of the coloured digits in the given numbers. 1 43,07,64,936 — 0 is in the ten lakhs place. So, both the place value and the face value of 0 are 0. 2 85,50,99,225 — 8 is in the ten crores place. So, the place value of 8 is 80,00,00,000 and the face value of 8 is 8.

Write the place value and the face value of 3 in 13,98,70,465. 3 is in the _____________ place. The place value of 3 is _____________. The face value of 3 is _____________.

Expanded Form and Number Names When the value of the digits of a number are written according to their place values, separated by a plus sign, it is called the expanded form of that number. For example, the expanded form of 277534122 is 200000000 + 70000000 + 7000000 + 500000 + 30000 + 4000 + 100 + 20 + 2 = 277534122 Expanded Form

Face Value and Place Value Like the Indian number system, each digit of a number has a place value and a face value. We find the place value and the face value in the same way as in the Indian number system. Place value of a digit = Digit or face value × Value of the place

Write the face value and the place value of the coloured digits in the numbers. 1 203,565,768 — 5 is in the hundred thousands place. The place value of 5 is 500,000. Its face value = 5. 2 909,358,767 — 9 is in the hundred millions place. The place value of 9 is 900,000,000. Its face value = 9.

Example 7

Find the difference between the place value and the face value of 8 in 682,344,590.

Do It Together

Write the place value and the face value of 4 in 134,870,965.

Place value of 8 = 80000000;

4 is in the millions place.

Face value of 8 = 8

So, the place value of 4 is _____________.

Difference = 80,000,000 − 8 = 79,999,992

The face value of 4 is _____________.

Expanded Form and Number Names Like the Indian number system, we put commas after each period starting with the ones, but read and written differently. For example, let us consider the population of Indonesia (277534122). 277,534,122 Millions period

Let us now compare the population of various countries and arrange them. Comparing Numbers To compare two numbers, let us say 21,04,76,827 and 21,98,70,539, we follow the steps. Step 1 Arrange the numbers in the place value chart and check the number of digits.

Both the numbers have 9 digits.

of the countries in descending order?

Step 3 In the same way, compare the remaining numbers if any, and write the next smallest number or write the greatest number. As 2 < 3, the next smaller number is 27,75,43,122. Therefore, 33,99,96,563 is the greatest number of all. Thus, 12,32,94,513 < 14,44,44,359 < 27,75,43,122 < 33,99,96,563 is the required ascending order.

Forming Numbers Let us understand this using an example. Let us say we are given the digits 9, 5, 1, 0, 6, 7, 2, 8 and 3. Let us try forming numbers so that each digit appears exactly once. 510286739

Think and Tell Can you form more such numbers?

Now what if we want to form the greatest and smallest 9-digit numbers, using these digits exactly once each? To form the greatest number, we write the digits in descending order, 987653210. This becomes the greatest 9-digit number that can be formed using each of the digits exactly once! To form the smallest 9-digit number, we write the digits in ascending order, 102356789.

Remember! 0 cannot appear in the left-most place because then it will be a 8-digit number.

This becomes the smallest 9-digit number that can be formed using each of the digits exactly once! What if the repetition of 1 digit is allowed and we want to form 9-digit numbers using 9, 5, 1, 0, 6, 7, 2 and 3?

Points to Remember •

In the Roman number system, we use seven basic symbols to write various numbers.

In the international number system, for 9-digit numbers, we have the ones period, thousands period and the millions period.

• • • • •

In the Indian number system, 9-digit numbers begin with the ten crores place in the place value chart (from the left).

The place value of a digit is the position of a digit in the number.

The face value of a digit for any place in the given number is the digit itself.

When place values of all its digits are added to form a number, it is called the expanded form of the number. A number with more digits is always greater.

To form the greatest or the smallest number with any given digits, arrange the digits in the descending or the ascending order, respectively.

Disha was reading a newspaper. A news clipping in the newspaper read: The concert raised ₹52,00,67,890 as a donation for the frontline workers of the Covid-19 battle in 2020.

Rounding Off Large Numbers In the news article, the number 52,00,67,890 is inconvenient to read and speak out loud. We can also just read it as: More than ₹52,00,00,000 has been raised for the frontline workers of the COVID-19 battle through a concert. This gives a fair idea of about how much money has been donated for the frontline workers. This is exactly what rounding off a number is! To show rounded off numbers, terms like 'about', 'over', 'more than', and 'approximately' are added to convey that the number is close to exact. We can round off numbers to various places such as tens, hundreds, and thousands. Let us understand how we can do this.

Remember!

Rounding off a number to the nearest ten

Rounded off numbers are the nearest values of the exact numbers.

Look for the digit at the ones place of the number. If the digit is less than 5, the digit is replaced by 0.

If the digit is 5 or greater than 5, the digit at the tens place is increased by 1 and the digit at ones place is replaced by 0. For example, look at the numbers given below. 213786992

Rounding off a number to the nearest hundred Look for the digit at the tens place. If the digit is less than 5, the digits at the ones and tens places are replaced by 0. If the digit is 5 or greater than 5, the digit at the hundreds place is increased by 1 and the digit at the tens and ones places are replaced by 0. For example, look at the numbers given below. 456782901

356874000

Round off 86,45,00,679 to the nearest ten. 86,45,00,679 has 9 in the ones place. 9 > 5. So, add 1 to the digit in the 10s place. So, 86,45,00,679 rounded off to the nearest ten is 86,45,00,680.

Estimation in Operations In the news article, the concert raised ₹52,00,67,890 in 2020. If another concert raised ₹50,00,000 more in 2021, then about how much did it raise in 2021? Let us see. To solve such questions or any other, we round off the numbers and then perform the required operation on the two rounded off numbers. So, to find the amount of money raised in 2021 through the concert, let us round off 52,00,67,890 to the nearest 10,00,000 and then add the two numbers. Amount raised through the concert in 2020 = ₹52,00,67,890 Rounding off ₹52,00,67,890 to the nearest lakh = ₹52,00,00,000 Amount raised through the concert in 2021 = ₹52,00,00,000 + ₹50,00,000

Estimating the Sum and Difference To find the estimated sum and difference, we round off each of the numbers and then add or subtract. For example, we need to find the estimated sum and difference of 6584 and 2431 to the nearest hundred. 6584 rounded off to the nearest hundred = 6600 2431 rounded off to the nearest hundred = 2400 Chapter 2 • Estimation and Operations on Large Numbers

So, the estimated product of 84 × 28 is 2400. Now, what if we have to find the estimated product of 568 × 45? To find the estimated product in such cases, we round off each number to its greatest place and then multiply the rounded off numbers. 568

rounded off to hundred

600

45

The estimated product of 758 and 510 is ______________. So, Muskan’s estimated product is ______________ (correct/incorrect).

Estimating the Quotient Like the estimated product, we can also find the estimated quotient. Say we need to find the estimated quotient of 96 and 14 to the nearest ten. 96 rounded off to the nearest ten = 100 14 rounded off to the nearest ten = 10 100 100 ÷ 10 = = 10 10 Thus, the estimated quotient of 96 and 14 is 10. Now, what if we have to find the estimated quotient of 256 ÷ 21? To find the estimated quotient in such cases, we round off each number to the greatest place of the smaller number and then divide the rounded off numbers. Here, the smaller number is 21. So, we round off each number to the nearest ten. 256 rounded off to the nearest ten = 260 21 rounded off to the nearest ten = 20 260 260 ÷ 20 = = 13 20

Multiplication and Division When the factory produces 15,000 garments in every 3 days, it is clear that a large number of garments are produced in a month. Now, let us see how we can find the number of garments produced in a month. 1 month has 30 days.

Number of garments produced every 3 days = 15,000

Number of garments produced in 1 day = 15,000 ÷ 3 = 5000

Number of garments produced in 30 days = 5000 × 30 = 150000 So, the number of garments produced in a month is 1,50,000. Example 9

Parentheses and Order of Operations We know that in the first month, the number of garments produced by the factory were 1,50,000. What if the production of garments in the factory increases by 3500 each month for the subsequent 6 months? Let us find the number of garments produced in 7 months. Number of garments produced in the first month = 150000 For the next 6 months, production of garments is increased by 3500 each month. Number of garments produced from the second month to the seventh month each month = 150000 + 3500 Chapter 2 • Estimation and Operations on Large Numbers

27


Number of garments produced in the 7 months = 150000 + [(150000 + 3500) × 6] Now, we can see that the above expression has more than 1 operation and more than 1 set of brackets.

2 operations

Addition and Multiplication

150000 + [(150000 + 3500) × 6]

2 brackets

small brackets (parentheses) and square brackets

Each operation and each bracket has an order for solving them. Let us see how the order is followed.

Small brackets Curly brackets Square brackets

So, the expression 150000 + [(150000 + 3500) × 6] as per the given order can be solved in this way. Step 1: Solve the brackets in the order of (), {} and []. There is no curly bracket, so we only solve inside small and square brackets.

150000 + [(150000 + 3500) × 6]

Step 2: We do not have ‘of’. So, skip the step. Next, we have to solve the operations in the order of ÷, ×, + and −. We do not have the ‘÷’ and ‘×’ signs. So, we skip these operations. Next, we solve for the ‘+’ sign.

= 150000 + 921000

= 150000 + [153500 × 6] = 10,71,000

As we do not have any other operation in the expression, we stop here. Thus, 150000 + [(150000 + 3500) × 6] = 10,71,000 Using Brackets in Solving Problems

When we use brackets, it is easy to interpret the problem and simplify the process of solving it without any confusion.

For example, Sanya bought 3 bouquets of 8 roses each and Aakash bought 5 bouquets of 8 roses each. Let us see how we can find the total number of roses they have altogether. There are two ways of solving this problem. Method 1 (without the use of brackets):

Number of roses purchased by Sanya = 3 × 8 = 24 Number of roses purchased by Aakash = 5 × 8 = 40 Together, the number of roses they purchased = 24 + 40 = 64 Method 2 (with use of brackets):

The number of roses Sanya and Aakash purchased = 8 × (3 + 5) = 8 × 8 = 64 28

Think and Tell

Which method is easier to use and find the answer?


In each case, the answer is the same but methods are different. Method 2 was a much faster and easier way than method 1 because we used a pair of brackets to put the number of bouquets together. So, using brackets appropriately is important to make the mathematical calculations easier and faster. Expanding Brackets

We can also use brackets to expand a number.

For example, to solve 5 × 102, we use brackets to expand the second number and then use the expansion to solve it. Let us see how.

Error Alert! 44 – 8 + 5 × 3 = 36 + 5 × 3 = 41 × 3 = 123

44 – 8 + 5 × 3 = 44 – 8 + 15 = 36 + 15 = 51

5 × 102 = 5 × (100 + 2) = 5 × 100 + 5 × 2 = 500 + 10 = 510 Example 11

Simplify [10 + (15 ÷ 5) × 4 – (2 × 2)] [10 + (15 ÷ 5) × 4 – (2 × 2)] = [10 + 3 × 4 – 4]

(solve small brackets)

= [10 + 12 – 4] = 18 Example 12

(solve square brackets through DMAS)

John ate 6 chocolates from a packet of 26 chocolates. Carl ate 5 chocolates from the rest. How many chocolates are left? Use brackets to find your answer.

Now, say, for the next subsequent months in the year, the factory produces half the number of garments in the first month. Let us see how we can find the number of garments produced in a year. Number of garments produced in the first month = 1,50,000

Number of garments produced in the next 6 months = 9,21,000 30

Points to Remember • • • •

Rounded off numbers are the nearest values of the exact numbers. While rounding off a number to the nearest ten, hundred or thousand, we always check the digit at the next place. If the digit is equal to or greater than 5, we round up. We round down if the digit is less than 5. To find the estimated sum, difference, product or quotient, we round off each of the numbers and then perform the required operation. BDMAS stands for Brackets, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.

Properties of Subtraction 1 Closure Property The difference between two whole numbers may not always be a whole number. a and b are two whole numbers, then: Case 1: a > b –

=

As 14 is greater than 7 14 – 7 = 7 is a whole number Case 2: a = b –

=

0

As 7 and 7 are equal, then 7 – 7 is a whole number. Case 3: a < b –

=

As 7 is less than 14, then 7 – 14 is not a whole number, as subtraction is not possible if the subtrahend is smaller than the minuend. Therefore, closure property does not hold true for subtraction. 2 Commutative property If we change the order of subtraction, then the difference between the two whole numbers will not be the same. –

As 7 and 4 are whole numbers, then 7–4≠4–7 3 Property of zero When 0 is subtracted from a whole number, then the difference is the number itself. –

0 =

Then, 7 – 0 = 7 Therefore, the property of zero holds true for subtraction.

Chapter 3 • Whole Numbers

4 Associative property

Two whole numbers cannot be regrouped and subtracted first. Hence, the order of subtraction is an important factor.

Let 14, 7 and 4 be three whole numbers.

Therefore, the associative law does not hold true for subtraction. 14 – (7 – 4) π (14 – 7) – 4 5 Inverse Operations Inverse operations are the pairs of mathematical operations in which one operation undoes the other operation. –

=

Addition and subtraction are inverse operations. We can say that addition undoes subtraction and vice versa. Let 7, 4 and 3 be three whole numbers, then If 7 – 4 = 3; then 4 + 3 = 7 Example 5

Use a suitable property to solve. (958 – 445) – 510 Also, check if associative law exists for subtraction. ⇒ (958 – 445) – 510 ⇒ (513) – 510 ⇒ 3 Using the associative law, 958 – (445 – 510); but 445 < 510 Therefore, the associative law does not hold true for subtraction.

2 × 6 = 12

12 × 1 = 1

4 × 3 = 12

3 × 4 = 12

6 × 2 = 12

1 × 12 = 12 1 and 12, 2 and 6, and 3 and 4 are the numbers that when multiplied give the same product. They are the factors of 12. We can divide 12 by any of these factors without a remainder.

Properties of Multiples

Every number is a factor of itself, and 1 is also a factor of every number.

Every number is a multiple of 1 and itself.

Division of a number by its factor leaves no remainder.

A multiple can be expressed as a product of its factors.

A factor of a number is always less than or equal to the number.

Multiples of a number are always equal to or more than the number.

The number of factors of a number is fixed.

The number of multiples of a number is infinite.

A number can be a factor of more than one number.

Any number can be a multiple of many numbers.

Ankita got a bag of square coloured blocks from her mother. The bag had 12 red blocks and 13 blue blocks. When Ankita and Naman tried to share the blocks equally, they found that they could split the red blocks evenly but not the blue ones. They were left with one blue block, which made them think about how they could divide the red blocks evenly but not the blue ones. Let us understand the mystery behind these numbers.

Co-primes (Relatively Prime)

Twin primes are pairs of prime numbers that have a difference of 2 between them, such as (3, 5), (5, 7), and (11, 13).

Prime triplets are sets of three prime numbers that have a difference of 2 between each consecutive pair, such as (3, 5, 7).

Co-primes, also known as relatively prime or mutually prime numbers, are two or more numbers that share no common factors other than 1, such as (8, 9), (15, 28), (7, 11), etc.

Abha and Priya picked 36 flowers from a garden. They attempted to create bunches with 4, 6, 8, and 10 flowers each, but the only even bunches they could make were with 4 and 6 flowers. Why do you think they were not able to make equal bunches with 8 and 10 flowers? Let us see some rules that will help us figure out whether a number is divisible without dividing it.

Mean, Median and Mode Working with LCM and HCF Real Life Connect

Maya: Ansh, I have 36 red balloons and 48 blue balloons. Can you tell me what is the maximum number of identical groups that I can make so that each group has both types of balloons? Ansh: We can find the common factors of 36 and 48. The factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36, while the factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48. The common factors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12. So you can make 12 identical groups, each having 3 red balloons and 4 blue balloons. Let us revise common factors and common multiples and learn how finding the HCF and LCM can help us solve such problems in our daily lives.

Revisiting HCF and LCM Common Factors and Common Multiples We’ll first revisit the concept of common factors and multiples to get started. Common Factors Common factors are numbers that can exactly divide two or more numbers without leaving a remainder. Let us find the common factors of 12, 20 and 24. Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 Factors of 20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20 66


Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 The common factors of 12, 20 and 24 are 1, 2 and 4. Common Multiples Common multiples are numbers that are multiples of two or more numbers. Let us find the common multiples of 12, 20 and 24 Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, ... Multiples of 20: 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, ... Multiples of 24: 4, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, 240, ... The common multiples of 12, 20 and 24 are 120, 240, 360, … Example 13

List the common factors of 48, 36 and 56. Factors of 48: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36 Factors of 56: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56 So, the common factors of 48, 36 and 56 are 1, 2 and 4.

Example 14

List two common multiples of 6, 12 and 18. Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72,... Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120... Multiples of 18: 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, 144, 162, 180... So, the two common multiples of 6, 12 and 18 are 36 and 72.

Highest Common Factor HCF stands for “Highest Common Factor,” and it refers to the largest number that evenly divides two or more numbers without leaving a remainder. Let us learn how to find the HCF of two numbers using three different methods. By Listing Factors Step 1: List the factors of 24 and 36.

Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

Step 2: Identify the common factors.

Common factors of 24 and 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Step 3: Determine the largest common factor.

The largest common factor is 12.

Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36

So, the HCF of 24 and 36 is 12. Now, let us find HCF of 324 and 540 using the prime factorisation method. Chapter 4 • Playing with Numbers: Factors and Multiples

Now, let us see how to find the HCF of two numbers using the long division method.

540 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5

By Long Division Step 1: Start by dividing the larger number by the smaller number. If the remainder is zero, the divisor is the HCF.

Step 2: If the remainder is not zero, divide the divisor by the remainder. Step 3: Repeat this process until the remainder becomes zero. The last divisor used is the HCF. So, the HCF of 216 and 324 is 108. Example 15

Properties of LCM and HCF 1 The Highest Common Factor (HCF) of the numbers is always smaller than or equal to the smallest number. 2 The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the numbers is never less than any of the numbers. 3 Two numbers that are co-prime have an HCF of 1. 4 For two or more co-prime numbers, their LCM is equal to the product of those numbers. 5 The HCF of the numbers is always a factor of their LCM. 6 For any two numbers, their product is equal to the product of their HCF and LCM. Let us understand this property through an example.

Error Alert! A random pair of numbers cannot be LCM and HCF of two numbers. HCF must be a factor of LCM.

Consider the numbers 12 and 18. Let us find their HCF and LCM and compare their product with the product of their HCF and LCM. 2

The HCF of two numbers is 9, and their LCM is 108. One of the numbers is 27. What is the other number? Solution: Let us denote the two numbers as A and B. Given: HCF = 9; LCM = 108 Let us say one of the numbers A = 27 We can use the relationship between HCF, LCM and the numbers: HCF × LCM = A × B Substitute the values: 9 × 108 = 27 × B B=

9 × 108 = 36 27

So, the other number (B) is 36. Example 20

Is it possible for two numbers to have 25 as their highest common factor (HCF) and 600 as their lowest common multiple (LCM)? Explain your answer. The HCF of the given numbers is always a factor of their LCM. Since 600 is divisible by 25, it is possible to have two numbers whose LCM and HCF are 600 and 25 respectively.

Word Problem 1

Imagine you have two factories, Factory A and Factory B. Factory A produces products every 18 hours, and Factory B produces similar products every 24 hours. The products produced

by both factories are required to be shipped together to a distribution centre. Is it possible for these factories to coordinate their production schedules in such a way that the time

interval between shipments to the distribution centre is exactly 36 hours (HCF), and the products arrive together every 432 hours (LCM)?

Word Problems in LCM and HCF The knowledge of HCF and LCM can come in handy in many real-life situations. Let us explore some word problems! Amy is planning to distribute chocolates (24 in a pack), balloons (30 in a pack), and pencils (18 in a pack) equally among her friends for a party. What is the maximum number of gift bags she can create without any items left over? 72


As we need to find the maximum number of gift bags without any left over, we will find the HCF of the given numbers. Factors of 24 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 Factors of 30 = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15 and 30 Factors of 18 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 18

Remember! LCM is always greater than HCF.

So, the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of the numbers is 6. Hence, Amy can create a maximum of 6 gift bags without any items left over. Example 21

At a bakery, there are three ovens used for baking different types of bread. Oven A bakes a batch in 15 minutes, Oven B in 20 minutes, and Oven C in 25 minutes. How often will all three ovens finish baking their batches simultaneously, and what is the minimum time it will take for them to do so again? To find out how often all three ovens will finish baking their batches simultaneously and the minimum time it will take for them to do so again, we need to determine the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the baking times for each oven. The baking times for the ovens are: Oven A: 15 minutes; Oven B: 20 minutes; Oven C: 25 minutes LCM (15, 20, 25) = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 5 = 300

Line Segments and Angles

Let's Recall Every day we come across various types of lines. Let us discuss parallel and intersecting lines.

m l

g h

P

Parallel lines are like best friends who walk side by side but never cross each other. They stay the same distance apart everywhere they go, just like railroad tracks that run alongside each other without ever meeting. On the other hand, intersecting lines are like friends who meet at a special point. They cross each other at one spot, like roads that cross at an intersection. After they meet, they go their separate ways.

Let's Warm-up Classify the following based on whether they are examples of intersecting lines or parallel lines. Write I for intersecting lines and P for parallel lines. 1

Measuring and Drawing Line Segments Anju and her father are putting up a clothes line. Anju: Dad, can we find the length of the rope needed? Dad: Good question, Anju! We'll have to measure the distance from one end to the other where we want to hang the line. The clothes line is a practical example of a line segment. Now, let us learn how to measure and draw line segments. 80


Measuring and Drawing Line Segments Drawing a line: Place one end of the ruler at the paper's edge, line up the '0' mark. Draw along the ruler's edge.

A ruler is split into 15 units. Each of these sections is exactly 1 cm long. Each centimetre is further split into 10 smaller units, called mm.

Correct way of taking a reading from the scale For precise measurements, align your vision directly above the mark in a vertical line; viewing from an angle can lead to error in the measurement due to the viewing angle.

Other Units for Measuring Lengths Units like millimetre and centimetre are suitable for measuring shorter lengths only. We need bigger units like metre and kilometre to measure longer distances. Bigger unit to smaller unit

You would be able to tell which line segment is longer. Comparison using ruler and divider A divider is a tool used for various geometrical purposes. It typically consists of two pointed legs attached to a hinge. Dividers are adjustable, allowing you to set the distance between the two points and helping measure more accurately. To measure a line segment using the ruler and divider, follow these steps: 1 Open the divider and place its arms on points A and B. 2 Carefully lift the divider, put it on the ruler, with one end at zero. 3 Check where the other divider end points on the ruler. 4 Read the mark on the ruler to know the length.

Measuring Angles Remember how Emma and Alex were racing cars on the ramps. Emma: Alex, I wonder why our cars go faster when the ramp is steeper. Alex: I think it is because of the angle, Emma. Let us measure the angles to see which angle measures more. Measuring Angles Using a Protractor A protractor is a tool shaped like a half‐circle with markings from 0 to 180 degrees (or sometimes 0 to 360 degrees) that helps us measure angles in circles. Let us learn how to measure angles using a protractor. Steps to measure an angle using a protractor:

1 Put the centre of the protractor right over the vertex of the angle (the point where the two lines of the angle meet). 2 Make sure that the baseline of the protractor (the straight line at the bottom) is aligned with one of the angle's arms.

3 Look at where the other arm of the angle crosses the markings on the protractor. The number where the arm crosses is the measurement of the angle in degrees. A

To be able to correctly predict the directions when you turn, you need to take care of two things: •

Amount of turn viz. no. of right angles or straight angles

Sense of rotation or turn (clockwise or anti‐clockwise)

Notice the changes in the direction depending on the sense of rotation and the amount of turn. Turning in terms of right angles can also be expressed in terms of turning or rotation by portion of a circle. Let us see how. 1 On turning clockwise by one right angle, the child will face south. 2 On turning anticlockwise by one straight angle, the child will face west. 3 On turning clockwise by two right angles, the child will face west. 4 On turning anticlockwise by two straight angles, the child will come back to his original position and face east. 88

Types of Polygons Regular and Irregular Polygons A regular polygon is a polygon in which all sides are of equal length and all angles are of equal measure. Regular polygons are highly symmetrical and have a uniform appearance. An irregular polygon is a polygon that does not have all sides of equal length and/or all angles of equal measure. Irregular polygons lack the uniformity and symmetry of regular polygons. Convex and Concave Polygons Concave Polygons have the measure of one of the angles more than 180°. Diagonals lie to the exterior.

Convex Polygons have a measure of each angle of less than 180°. The diagonals lie inside the polygon.

Kate explains, ‘Circles have no corners, but a central point, and all its edge points are at an equal distance from this point.’ The tyres of our bicycle and the sun are examples of a circle. Let us think of other things that are shaped like a circle.

Let us see some examples of circular objects:

Curves Real Life Connect

On a warm summer morning, Emily and Liam go to their favourite beach. Armed with sticks and surrounded by endless sand, they are ready to be creative. Emily: Hey Liam, I’m drawing these wavy lines that flow like waves! Liam: Great idea, Emily! I will draw lines that don’t meet at the ends!

Types of Curves Emily and Liam create various types of curves with their drawings. Some form loops, others cross and a few are wavy. These distinctions allow curves to be grouped into various categories. Let us explore a few of these categories. Simple and non-simple curves A curve that does not cross itself is known as a simple curve. Simple Curves

Non-simple Curves

Curve crosses itself once.

Curve crosses itself twice. Open and closed curves Curves can be open or closed, based on whether they start and finish at the same point. Open curves don't begin and end at the same point, whereas closed curves do.

Open Curves

Remember! Both open and closed curves can have crossings.

Closed Curves Simple closed curves The curves that start and finish at the same point without crossing themselves are known as simple closed curves.

Constructing Circles Fascinated by circles, Maya removes her bangles and uses them to sketch circles on paper. She wishes to create circles of various sizes, yet her bangles allow only for one fixed size. Her father steps in and tells her that she can draw circles of different sizes using a compass. We can also construct circles using a compass . A compass is a drawing tool used for making circles and arcs. It consists of two arms connected by a hinge, one with a pointed end and the other with a holder for a pencil or pen. Steps to construct a circle using a compass Step 2

Circumference of a Circle Maya notices that her bangles are smaller than her mom’s because her bangles won’t fit her mom’s wrist. She then thinks about how she will know which of her circles are smaller or bigger. She needs a way to measure the size of her circles. The circumference of a circle helps you understand the size of the circle. It is the length of its outer edge or boundary. In simpler terms, it is the total length of the circle's curved path. It is equivalent to the perimeter of other shapes, but the term ‘circumference’ applies only to circles. Circumference = 2pr, where r is the radius and p =

Points to Remember

116

Simple curves do not cross themselves.

Open curves do not start and end at the same point, whereas closed curves do.

A secant is a straight line that intersects a circle at two distinct points.

An arc of a circle is a portion of a circle bounded by two distinct points.

A chord splits a circular region into major and minor segments.

A chord splits the circle into major and minor arcs.

A compass can be used to construct a circle from the centre.

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its outer edge or boundary.

Understanding 3-D Shapes Real Life Connect

Jimmy owns a gift and bakery shop. The gifts are in different 3-D shapes. Let us see how these gifts are different from each other.

Features of 3-D Shapes Jimmy likes one gift in particular, as he can see a lot of 3-D shapes in it. Face Vertex Edge

A 3-D or a three-dimensional shape has three dimensions (length, breadth and height). Such shapes are also called solid shapes. A 3-D shape has faces, edges and vertices. Let us look at various 3-D shapes in Jimmy’s gift. Cylinder: 0 vertices, 2 edges, 2 plane faces + 1 circular face Cube: 8 vertices, 12 edges, 6 plane faces Cone: 1 vertex, 1 edge, 1 plane face + 1 circular face Sphere: 0 vertices, 0 edges, 1 curved face Cuboid: 8 vertices, 12 edges, 6 plane faces 3-D shapes with straight sides can be classified as prisms and pyramids.

Prisms: Prisms are 3-D shapes with straight sides and identical opposite bases that can be polygons. The lateral faces of prisms are rectangles and the opposite faces are parallel. Cubes and cuboids are also prisms, as they have identical opposite faces that are squares in a cube and squares or rectangles in a cuboid. Square Prism

Triangular Prism Identical triangular bases

Square opposite faces

Hexagonal Prism Identical hexagonal bases 120

Rectangular lateral faces

Octagonal Prism Identical octagonal bases


Pyramids: A pyramid is a 3-D shape with one vertex and one polygonal base. It has the same number of lateral triangular faces as the number of sides in the polygonal base. The lateral triangular faces meet at the vertex.

Simran scored +4 points and Jay scored –4 points in the first round. During the second round, Simran scored +2 points and Jay scored +6 points. They want to know who the final winner is after the two rounds. Let us help them out!

Addition of Integers We already know about the addition of whole numbers. Let us now learn to add two or more integers.

Rules for Addition of Integers Addition of two integers Let us add Simran’s score during the two rounds which is +4 and +2 using a number line. Step 1: Start from 0

Step 3: Again move 2 steps right as the second digit is

–10 –9 –8 –7 –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1

Move 4 steps to the left of 0 reaching –4, then move 2 steps to the left. Hence, (–4) + (–2) = –6

From the above discussion, we can conclude that: To add two integers with the same sign: • add their absolute values and

For two negative integers, move towards left to add.

• place the common sign before the sum Therefore, (+4) + (+2) = |+4| + |+2| = 4 + 2 = 6 And, (–4) + (–2), |–4| + |–2| = 4 + 2 = 6 (–4) + (–2) = –6 Addition of integers with different signs

Let us now add Jay’s score, which is – 4 and +6 using a number line. Jay’s Scores: –4 and +6

Step 1: Start from 0 Step 2: Move 4 steps to the left, as we need to add – 4. Step 3: Move 6 steps right, as the second digit is +6.

Hence (–4) + (+6) = +2135

From the above discussion, we can conclude that: To add two integers with different signs: • find the difference of their absolute values and • place the sign of the integer with greater numerical value Therefore, (–4) + (+6) = |+6| – |– 4| = 6 – 4 = 2 Example 4

Properties of Addition of Integers Closure Property

Commutative Property

If a and b are two integers, then

For example,

1 (+2) + (+8) = +10

a+b=b+a

(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)

This means that the sum of two integers is the same regardless of the order in which they are added.

This means that when adding three or more integers, the order in which additions are performed does not change the final sum.

For example,

2 (+5) + (–9) = – 4

(−5) + (+8) = (+8) + (−5) = +3

Existence of Additive Identity For any integer a, we have: a+0=0+a=a This equation states that adding zero to any integer results in the same integer. For example,

1 5+0=5

Example 7

For any three integers a, b and c,

For any two integers a and b,

a+b=c where c will always be an integer.

Associative Property

2 –5 + 0 = –5

For example, (−5 + 3) + (−6) = −5 + (3 + (−6)) = −8 Existence of Additive Inverse

For every integer, there exists an additive inverse so that when the integer and its additive inverse are added together, the result is zero. In simpler terms, for any integer a, another integer exists –a so that a + (–a) = 0 For example, the additive inverse of 10 is –10 and vice versa.

Which of these represent the additive inverse property? 1 18 + 3 = 3 + 18

Subtraction Property of Zero

For any three integers a, b and c,

The subtraction property of zero in integers states that subtracting zero from any integer leaves the integer unchanged.

(a – b) – c π a – (b – c) This means that integers are not associative under subtraction.

For an integer a,

Points to Remember •

The numbers (…. −4, −3, −2, −1, 0, 1, 2,3,4, ….) are called integers.

Negative integers lie on the left of the number line, whereas positive integers lie on the right of the number line.

Integers on the right of the number line are greater than integers on the left of the number line.

0 is neither a positive nor a negative integer.

The absolute value of an integer is its numerical value regardless of its sign.

To add two integers with like signs, we add their values and place the common sign before the total.

To add integers with unlike signs, we take the difference of their absolute values and put the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.

To subtract an integer b from integer a, we change the sign of b and add it to a.

Fractions

Let's Recall A fraction is a number that represents a part of a whole. It has two parts, a numerator and a denominator. Let us say Riyanshi has a strawberry pie and she divides it into 7 equal parts. So, here a strawberry pie is considered as a whole and each piece of it is a part. She eats 3 parts out of the total parts. To represent the pie eaten by her as a fraction Riyanshi shades 3 parts out of 7. The 3 shaded part represents . Here, 3 is the numerator and 7 is the denominator. 7

Miya is baking an oat cake today. She divided the delicious oat cake into 10 equal parts.

Representing Fractions We know that Miya has divided her cake into 10 equal parts.

 1  The whole cake here represents a whole (1) and each piece of cake    10  represents a part of a whole cake. 1 Each piece of cake is of the cake. These can be added to make one whole. 10 1 So, if we add ten times, we will get 1. 10 Representing fractions on a number line There are various types of fractions which we can represent on a number line.

We know,

Greater the numerator, greater the fraction. 2>1

1 2 1 5 Thus, > . Thus, her mother got a bigger slice. 5 5 2 2 What if Miya gave part to her sister and to her brother. Who received the larger portion? 7 8 Comparison of unlike fractions

2 5

For unlike fractions with the same numerator, we compare the denominators. The fraction with the greater denominator is smaller. Compare

2 2 and 7 8

Step 2

Since denominators are the same, compare the numerators and order the fractions. 6 < 8 < 15 < 18 So,

6 8 15 18 < < < 30 30 30 30

Thus,

Points to Remember a b

Fractions are numbers of the form , where a and b are whole numbers and b ≠ 0.

When two like fractions are compared, then the fraction with the greater numerator will be the greater.

• • • • • •

Improper fractions are always greater than 1, whereas proper fractions are less than 1.

To add or subtract unlike fractions, find the LCM of the denominators, convert them into like fractions and then perform addition or subtraction.

To multiply one fraction with another fraction, multiply the numerators, multiply the denominators and then write the answer in the lowest form. A fraction is said to be in its lowest form if the HCF of the numerator and denominator is 1.

A reciprocal of a fraction can be obtained by interchanging the numerator and denominators.

To divide two or more fractions, multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the other fraction.

Decimals

Let’s Recall Decimals are numbers that are used in real-life situations where we need to be more exact than whole numbers. For example, when we weigh ourselves, our weight might not be a whole number on the scale, so decimals are used to show the exact weight. Decimals can be used to write money amounts, lengths, temperature etc. A decimal number is a number which consists of a whole and a decimal part. The decimal part is always less than 1.

START

The increasing order of the time is 15.45 seconds < 15.53 seconds < 15.6 seconds < 17.3 seconds. Thus, Sukant is the fastest followed by Yashu, Vyom and then Aman secured the fourth position.

More on Decimals Shraddha went to collect the reports on FCoV of her cat. The cat had to be given 1.2 mL of cough syrup in the morning and 0.95 mL of cough syrup in the evening.

Like and Unlike Decimals Did you notice that the decimals 1.2 and 0.95 look different? Let us figure out how! Decimal numbers that have the same number of digits after the decimal point are called like decimals. For example, 2.56 and 8.14 are like decimals. Decimal numbers that have different numbers of digits after the decimal point are called unlike decimals.

2.56

For example, 1.2 and 0.95 are unlike decimals.

Example 7

8.14

Same number of digits after the decimal point.

1.2

0.95

Different number of digits after the decimal point.

Separate groups of like decimals from the decimal numbers. 4.48, 4.51, 1.1, 87.3, 148.484, 81.654, 781.925, 4.354, 15.68, 48.61, 14.3, 54.975

148.484, 81.654, 781.925, 4.354, 54.975

Check whether 15.45 and 814.012 are unlike decimals or not. Number of digits after decimal point in 15.45 = 2

170


Number of digits after the decimal point in 814.012 = ____________ So, the number of digits after the decimal point ____________ equal. Thus, 15.45 and 814.012 are ____________ decimals.

Equivalent Decimals Equivalent decimals are the decimal numbers which have the same value.

Remember! six-tenths

six-hundredths

0.6

0.60

6 10

Adding 0 at the end of a decimal number does not change the value of the number.

60 = 6 100 10

1.2

These types of decimals are also called equal decimals. For example, 0.6 = 0.60 = 0.600 = 0.6000; 1.54 = 1.540 = 1.5400 The concept of equivalent decimals is used to convert unlike decimals to like decimals.

1.20

0.95

Write any two equivalent fractions for the numbers given. 1 3.6

2 7.81

3.6 = 3.60 = 3.600 Example 9

0.95

Same number of digits after the decimal point.

Let us convert 1.2 and 0.95 to like decimals. Example 8

Add 1 zero

7.81 = 7.810 = 7.8100

Convert each of these to like decimals. 4.5, 6.63, 12.250, 14.02 4.5 = 4.500

6.63 = 6.630

12.250 = 12.250

14.02 = 14.020

Thus, 4.500, 6.630, 12.250, 14.020 are like decimals. Do It Together

Points to Remember •

Numbers written in decimal form are called decimal numbers.

The decimal numbers which have the same number of decimal places are called like decimals, and the decimal numbers with different numbers of decimal places they are called unlike decimals.

Unlike decimals can be converted to like decimals by adding 0’s as placeholders at the extreme right side of the decimal number.

To add and subtract the decimal numbers, convert the decimal numbers into like decimals.

To multiply the decimal numbers, remove the decimal points from the numbers to be multiplied.

To divide the decimal numbers, place the decimal point directly above the decimal point in the dividend.

Organising and Representing Data Real Life Connect

Rajveer is fond of collecting data on various things. We know that data is the collection of information and numerical facts. He collects raw data about various countries such as their population, their areas and the number of states in each of them. When the data is collected in its original form, it is called raw data; and each item in the raw data is called an observation. So, Rajveer conducted a survey and listed 4 countries. He wrote the number of states in each country. Austria has 9 states, Malaysia has 13 states, New Zealand has 2 states and South Sudan has 10 states. He represented the data in a tabular form. Name of Country

Organising Data as Tally Marks Rajveer decides to represent the data using tally marks as shown. Name of Country

Tally Marks

Austria Malaysia New Zealand South Sudan

In tally marks, we use ‘ ’ for one item. So, for one state, we will draw one tally mark ‘ ’. For 4 states, we will draw ‘ ’. For 5 states, we will draw and not . Note: For 5 items, we always use . To show 12 items, we will draw tally marks as .

Now, let us look at another example of data and understand how to represent it. The following data gives the number of marks obtained by 30 students. 5, 7, 6, 7, 8, 9, 5, 6, 7, 6, 6, 8, 8, 9, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 7, 6, 5, 7, 5, 7, 9, 9, 9, 6, 9 To find out how many times a given observation appears in this data, we will use a frequency distribution table. Frequency is the number of times an observation occurs. Frequency distribution is the tabular arrangement of numerical data which shows the frequency of each observation. Let us learn how to draw it. Drawing frequency distribution table First arrange the raw data in ascending order. 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9 When the raw data is arranged in ascending order or descending order, then it is called an array.

Points to Remember •

Numerical figures collected to convey information are called data.

Representation of organised data in the form of pictures or parts thereof is called a pictograph.

• •

To get particular information from the collected data, it can be arranged in a tabular form, using tally marks. Such a table is called a frequency distribution table.

A bar graph is a representation of data by a number of rectangular bars of uniform width erected vertically or horizontally and there are equal spaces between two consecutive bars. The scale for making pictographs and bar graphs is chosen according to the need.

Math Lab Favourite Ice-cream Flavours Aim: To collect, organise, and analyse data about the favourite ice-cream flavours of the class Settings: In groups of 5 Materials Needed: Chart paper, markers, a hat or box to draw from, ice-cream scoops and sticky notes or index cards Process:

Richa is working on her new craft in which she needs to cover a rectangular sheet of paper of length 8 cm by 10 cm with 1 cm by 1 cm pieces of paper. How many pieces of paper does she need to cover the entire sheet?

Area on Graph Paper We have discussed the outer boundary (perimeter) of a figure. The region enclosed by a closed figure is called its area. We can find the region enclosed with the help of squared paper.

1 cm Count the number of squares enclosed in the figure.

On counting, we found that there are 80 squares enclosed in the figure. So, the number of squares of paper required by Richa is 80. Number of unit squares enclosed = Area of the figure. Hence the area of the rectangular sheet of paper = 80 sq. cm. Chapter 13 • Mensuration

Remember! Unit of area depends on the unit of the dimensions of the figure.

But the squares do not always fit into the area we want to measure. Can we still measure the area of such figures? Yes! Let us find out how. Look at the figure below and the rules to estimate the area of such figures. Area of 1 fully filled square = 1 sq. unit

Introduction to Algebra

Let’s Recall We know how to recognise patterns and extend them. Let us recall some patterns.

What shape comes after the circle? A triangle. What shape comes before the triangle? A circle. Extending this pattern in both the directions, we get,

These are called repeating patterns.

In this pattern the shape L is formed using dots. Each figure has 2 more dots than the previous figure. This is the rule of the pattern. Extending this pattern, the next figure in the sequence will have 9 dots. These are called growing patterns.

In a lecture hall, seats are arranged in such a way that the first row contains 3 seats, the second row has 6 seats, the third row has 9 seats and so on. Ravi is sitting in the 8th row. He wonders how many seats there are in his row.

The number of seats in the 8th row is 24. Did you analyse any pattern in the table? The number of seats is three times the row number. Let us write the letter ‘x’ to represent the row numbers. Then, the number of seats = 3 × x or 3x. This is the rule for the given pattern. By substituting the row number in the rule, we get the total number of seats in that row. For row 1, x = 1. Number of seats = 3x = 3 × 1 = 3. For row 2, x = 2. Number of seats = 3x = 3 × 2 = 6. For row 8, x = 8. Number of seats = 3x = 3 × 8 = 24.

Think and Tell

How many seats will there be in the tenth row?

Here, x is a variable as x takes different values.

A symbol that does not have a fixed value and takes various values is called a variable. In 3x, 3 is called the coefficient of x. A coefficient is a number that is written along with a variable, or it is multiplied by the variable.

Rule: 3x

Step 1: Identify the rule.

Shape number

We can make a table to find a rule for the pattern.

1

Let us write the letter ‘n’ to represent the shape numbers.

2 3

Step 2: Use the rule to extend the pattern.

Number of sticks required 1×3+1=4

2×3+1=7

3 × 3 + 1 = 10

Rule

Number of sticks required = (n × 3 + 1) or (3n + 1)

Number of sticks required to form shape 4 = 4 × 3 + 1 = 13 sticks Number of sticks required to form shape 5 = 5 × 3 + 1 = 16 sticks Number of sticks required to form shape 20 = 20 × 3 + 1 = 61 sticks In the rule (3n + 1), n is a variable, 3 is the coefficient of n and 1 is the constant term. The quantities with fixed numerical values are called constants.

Example 1

What are the next three numbers in the sequence 2, 5, 8, 11, …

Remember!

First term of the sequence = (3 × 1) − 1 = 2

A list of numbers which form a pattern is called a sequence.

Second term of the sequence = (3 × 2) − 1 = 5 nth term of the sequence = (3 × n) – 1 = (3n – 1) Fifth term = (3 × 5) − 1 = 14

Example 2

Sixth term = (3 × 6) − 1 = 17

Seventh term = (3 × 7) − 1 = 20

While counting chairs in the lunch room, Madan noticed that there were 3 chairs in the first row, 7 chairs in the second row, 11 chairs in the third row, and 15 chairs in the fourth row. If this pattern continues, how many chairs will there be in the fifth row? Number of chairs in the first row = (4 × 1) − 1 = 3 Number of chairs in the second row = (4 × 2) − 1 = 7 Number of chairs in the nth row = (4 × n) – 1 = (4n – 1) Number of chairs in the fifth row = (4 × 5) − 1 = 19

Solving Linear Equations in one Variable Gaurav continued using the same taxi service. The taxi charges ₹15 per km. One day he travelled with the taxi and paid ₹105, how many km did he travel? Let the distance travelled by Gaurav = m km Charge per km = ₹15; Charge for m km = 15 × m = 15m As per the given condition, 15m = 105 The value of the variable for which LHS = RHS of an equation is called the solution or root of the equation. When we solve an equation, we find the value of the unknown variable.

Remember! There can be only one value or solution to a given linear equation in one variable.

Some methods to solve linear equations are given below. • Trial and error method • Transposition method

Trial and Error Method In this method, we substitute different values for the variable and check the equality of LHS with RHS. The value of the variable that satisfies the equation is the solution or root of the equation. In the equation 15m = 105. Here, LHS = 15m and RHS = 105 If m = 1, LHS = 15 × 1 = 15 ≠ RHS; If m = 3, LHS = 15 × 3 = 45 ≠ RHS If m = 5, LHS = 15 × 5 = 75 ≠ RHS; If m = 7, LHS = 15 × 7 = 105 = RHS Therefore, for m = 7, LHS = RHS = 105 So, m = 7 is the solution of the equation 15m = 105. Example 12

Solve the equation 8x + 2 = 50 by trial-and-error method. Here, LHS = 8x + 2 and RHS = 50 If x = 1, LHS = 8 × 1 + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10 ≠ RHS; If x = 2, LHS = 8 × 2 + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18 ≠ RHS If x = 3, LHS = 8 × 3 + 2 = 24 + 2 = 26 ≠ RHS; If x = 4, LHS = 8 × 4 + 2 = 32 + 2 = 34 ≠ RHS

228


If x = 5, LHS = 8 × 5 + 2 = 40 + 2 = 42 ≠ RHS; If x = 6, LHS = 8 × 6 + 2 = 48 + 2 = 50 = RHS Therefore, for x = 6, LHS = RHS = 50 So, x = 6 is the solution of the equation 8x + 2 = 50. Do It Together

Solve the equation 3x + 4 = 16 by trial-and-error method. Here, LHS = _____ and RHS = _____ For x = 1, LHS = 3 × 1 + 4 = 3 + 4 = 7 ≠ RHS; For x = 2, LHS = ____________________ For x = 3, LHS = ____________________; For x = 4, LHS = ____________________ Therefore, for x = ______, LHS = RHS = 16 So, x = ______ is the solution of the equation 3x + 4 = 16.

Transposition Method The trial-and-error method is a longer method when the value of the variable is a large number. To save time, we use the method of transposing to solve a linear equation. Transposing means shifting a number or variable from one side of the equality symbol to the other side by reversing the operation. The sign changes as shown below: +

+

×

÷

Let us solve the equation 15m = 105 by transposition method. To isolate the variable m on the LHS, we transpose 15 from LHS to RHS by reversing the sign. So, m =

Example 13

105 =7 15

Do not forget to change the sign while transposing the digit. –1.5 + k = 8.2

–1.5 + k = 8.2

k = 8.2 + (–1.5)

k = 8.2 + 1.5

k = 6.7

k = 9.7

Solve 2m − 12 = 18 using the transposition method. 2m − 12 = 18

2m = 18 + 12

2m = 30

m=

So, m = 15 is the solution of the equation. Do It Together

Points to Remember •

In algebra, we generally use letters of the English alphabet such as a, b, c, d, …, x, y, z to represent numbers. These letters are known as variables.

Algebraic expressions are formed by meaningful combinations of variables, constants, and operators.

The parts of an algebraic expression joined by ‘+’ or ‘−’ sign are called terms.

An equation contains an equality sign (=). The expression on the left-hand side of ‘=’ is called the LHS while that on the right-hand side of ‘=’ is called the RHS.

An equation in which the highest power of each variable is 1, is known as a linear equation.

The solution or root of an equation is that value of the variable of which LHS = RHS.

We can find the solution of an equation by trial-and-error or transposition method.

Introduction to Ratio and Proportion

Let's Recall

A fraction is a representation of parts of a whole. For example, if we divide a circle into five equal parts and shade three parts of it, we say that 3 of the circle is shaded. 5 Fractions can be classified as like and unlike. Like fractions have the same denominator whereas unlike fractions have different denominators. For example, 3 and 7 are like fractions whereas 1 and 2 are unlike fractions. 8 8 4 5 Fractions are represented in their simplest form to make them easier to work with.

4 can be simplified to 1 . 8 2 This shows that half of something is the same as four-eighths of it. Such fractions are also called equivalent fractions. For example, the fraction

Ratio in Simplest Form Now, Shane took 9 cups of rice and 6 cups of urad dal to make the batter. The ratio of rice to dal taken to make the batter is 9 : 6 We can also say that for every 3 cups of rice, Shane needs 2 cups of urad dal. This means that 9 : 6 can be simplified as 3 : 2. If the HCF of both the terms of a ratio is 1, then we can say the ratio is in its simplest form. Let us learn how to write the ratio in its simplest form. Step 1 Find the HCF of both the quantities.

Remember!

Step 2

HCF stands for the highest common factor, which is the largest number that divides both the numbers.

Divide both the quantities with their HCF. HCF of 9 and 6 = 3 9:6 =

9 = 9 ÷ 3 = 3 = 3:2 6 6÷3 2

Hence the simplest form of 9 : 6 = 3 : 2

Example 3

Express the ratio 16 : 24 in its simplest form.

John and Fatima go cycling for 15 minutes on weekdays and cover half a kilometre. John: Let us cycle for 30 minutes today as it’s Sunday! Fatima: Sure John! How much distance can we cover in 30 minutes if we pedal at the same speed? Let us see how we can find the distance covered!

Proportion Introducing Proportion We saw that the children usually cover half a kilometre in 15 minutes. So, in the next 15 minutes they will cover the same distance. Distance covered in 15 minutes = half kilometre = 500 m Distance covered in 30 minutes = 500 m + 500 m = 1000 m Ratio of time of cycling = 15 : 30 = 1 : 2; Ratio of distance covered = 500 : 1000 = 1 : 2 Two ratios are said to be in proportion if they are equal. The symbol used to equate the two ratios is ': :' or ‘=’. Here we can say, 15 : 30 : : 500 : 1000 Example 8

Points to Remember •

Ratio is the comparison between two quantities of the same kind and the same units.

In a : b, a is called the antecedent and b is called the consequent.

Ratios are expressed in their simplest form when the HCF of the terms is 1.

Equivalent ratios are found by multiplying or dividing both terms of the ratio by the same non-zero number.

Ratios can be compared by converting them into like fractions.

Two ratios are in proportion if they are equal and are represented using ': :' or '='.

Three numbers a, b, and c are in continued proportion if a : b and b : c are in proportion.

Finding the value of one unit and then calculating the required number of units is called the unitary method.

Symmetry

Let's Recall When a shape can be folded so that one half of it fits exactly on the other half along the fold line, the shape is said to be symmetrical. For example, when we fold a sheet of paper in two halves, the left side of the paper will overlap with the right side of the paper.

The shape can be called symmetrical.

The shapes that cannot be divided in two halves are called non-symmetrical shapes.

Symmetry in Shapes

Think and Tell

When a shape or figure is divided into halves that are identical so that one is a mirror image of the other, it is said to be symmetrical.

Where can you draw a line of symmetry in a line segment?

The line at which a shape or figure is found to be symmetrical is the line of symmetry. Line of symmetry

A shape or figure can have zero, one, two or more than two lines of symmetry. Let us look at some shapes and the lines of symmetry they have.

Construction of Angles Constructing Angles and Their Bisectors Emma is visiting her grandparents in the village. She sees a farmer ploughing his fields.

Real Life Connect

Emma: Grandfather, why is the plow shaped like that? Grandfather: Emma, the farmer uses angles to plough his field effectively. He adjusts the angle of his plow to control the depth of the furrows, allowing him to plant his crops evenly. Angles are geometric figures formed by two rays or lines that share a common endpoint, known as the vertex. Angles are typically measured in degrees. You can see angles all around us in trees, intersection of roads, tilted roofs, etc.

Constructing Angles of Given Measures Let us draw an angle using a protractor. Draw ∠XYZ of measure 56º. 1 Place the protractor so that Y coincides with the midpoint of the baseline, and the baseline (0-180º. line) aligns with ray YZ.

2 Draw ray YZ . Start with the starting point at Z and mark point X at 56º.

Points to Remember

282

A ruler can be used to draw line segments and a protractor can be used to draw angles.

Set squares can be used to draw perpendiculars to a line segment passing through points on or above the line segment.

A compass can be used to construct a copy of a line segment or angle without actually measuring it.

A perpendicular bisector is a line that intersects a given line segment at a right angle and divides it into two equal parts.

An angle bisector is a straight line or ray that divides an angle into two equal parts, creating two smaller angles with the same measure.
