Fractions and Decimals
There are two fractions such that fraction X is thrice the fraction Y and their product is 25/12. Which of the following is equal to Y?
Let X and Y are given fractions.Given that, fraction X is thrice the fraction Y;i.e., X = 3Y ...(1)And their product = X x Y = 25/12Sub. eqn (1) in above,(3Y)x(Y) = 25/123(Y²) = 25/12(Y²) = 25/36Y = 5/6Hence the required fraction is 5/6.
Given expression = (.896 x .752 +.896 x .248) / (.7 x .034 + .7 x.966)=.[896 x (.752+.248)] / [.7 x (.034+.966)] = .(896 x 1) / ( .700 x 1)=896/700 = 1.28
We have to find, the value of 4/7 of 560 - 5/8 of 400.4/7 x 560 - 5/8 x 400 = (4 x 80) - (5 x 50) = 320 - 250 = 70Hence, four-seventh of 560 is greater than five-eighth of 400 by 70.
Let the worth of total property be Rs.XWe have to find 3/5 of X.Given that, 5/6 th of the property = Rs.976500i.e., 5/6 x X = 976500X = 976500 x 6/5And, 3/5 of X = 3/5 x 976500 x 6/5 = 18 x 39060 = 703080Hence the answer is Rs. 703080
