Decimal Forms Class 9 Kerala Syllabus Question 1.
Write the fractions below in decimal form:

1. $$\frac{3}{20}$$
2. $$\frac{3}{40}$$
3. $$\frac{13}{40}$$
4. $$\frac{7}{80}$$
5. $$\frac{5}{16}$$

1. $$\frac{3}{20}$$
= $$\frac{3×5}{20×5}$$ = $$\frac{15}{100}$$ = 0.15

2. 40 = 2 x 2 x (2 x 5)
Multiplied by 5 x 5
(2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) = 1000
it is a multiple of 10.
$$\frac{3}{10}$$ = $$\frac{3x5x5}{40x4x5x}$$ = $$\frac{75}{1000}$$ = 0.75

3. 40 = 2 x 2 x (2 x 5)
Multiplied by 5 x 5
(2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) = 1000
It is a multiple of 10.
$$\frac{13}{40}$$ = $$\frac{13x5x5}{20}$$ = $$\frac{325}{1000}$$ = 0.325

4. 80 = 2 x 2 x 2 x (2 x 5)
Multiplied by 5 x 5 x 5
It is a multiple of 10.
(2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) = 1000
$$\frac{7}{80}$$ = $$\frac{7x5x5x5}{80x5x5x5}$$ = $$\frac{875}{10000}$$ = 0.0875

5. 16 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
Multiplied by 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 5
(2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) = 1000
It is a multiple of 10.
$$\frac{5}{16}$$ = $$\frac{5x5x5x5x5}{16x5x5x5x5}$$ = $$\frac{3125}{10000}$$ = 0.3125

Kerala Syllabus 9th Standard Maths Chapter 2 Question 2.
Find the decimal form of the sums below:

1. $$\frac{1}{80}$$ + $$\frac{1}{25}$$ + $$\frac{1}{125}$$
2. $$\frac{1}{5}$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 5 }^{ 2 } }$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 5 }^{ 3 } }$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 5 }^{ 4 } }$$
3. $$\frac{1}{2}$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 2 }^{ 2 } }$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 2 }^{ 3 } }$$

1. $$\frac{1}{80}$$ + $$\frac{1}{25}$$ + $$\frac{1}{125}$$
Denominators of all the fractions should be 125
$$\frac{1×25}{5×25}$$ + $$\frac{1×5}{25×5}$$ + $$\frac{1×1}{125×1}$$
= $$\frac{25}{125}$$ + $$\frac{5}{125}$$ + $$\frac{1}{125}$$ = $$\frac{31}{125}$$
125 = 5 x 5 x 5
Multiplied by 2 x 2 x 2
(5 x 2) x (5 x 2) x (5 x 2) = 1000
It is a power of 10
$$\frac{31}{125}$$ = $$\frac{31x2x2x2}{125x2x2x2}$$ = $$\frac{248}{1000}$$ = 0.248

2. $$\frac{1}{5}$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 5 }^{ 2 } }$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 5 }^{ 3 } }$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 5 }^{ 4 } }$$
Denominators of all the fractions should be 54

3. $$\frac{1}{2}$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 2 }^{ 2 } }$$ + $$\frac { 1 }{ { 2 }^{ 3 } }$$
Denominators of all the fractions should be 23

Hss Live Guru 9th Maths Kerala Syllabus Question 3.
A two – digit number divided by an other two-digit number gives 5.875. What are the numbers?
5875 = $$\frac{5875}{1000}$$
5875 = 5 x 5 x 5 x 47
1000 = 5 x 5 x 5 x 8

5.875 = $$\frac{5875}{1000}$$ = $$\frac{5x5x5x47}{5x5x5x8}$$ = $$\frac{47}{8}$$
But 8 is not a two digit number. So we multiplied both numerator and denominator by 2, we get
$$\frac{47}{8}$$ = $$\frac{94}{16}$$
5.875 = $$\frac{94}{16}$$

Kerala Syllabus 9th Standard Maths Notes Question 1.
For each of the fractions below, find fractions with denominators powers of 10 gefting chaser and closer to it and hence write its decimal form:

1. $$\frac{2}{3}$$
2. $$\frac{5}{6}$$
3. $$\frac{1}{9}$$

1. $$\frac{2}{3}$$ = $$\frac{2×10}{3×10}$$ = $$\frac{2}{10}$$ x $$\frac{10}{3}$$ = $$\frac{2}{10}$$ x (3 + $$\frac{1}{3}$$)

The fraction $$\frac{6}{10}$$, $$\frac{66}{100}$$, $$\frac{666}{1000}$$, ……… and so on get closer and closer to $$\frac{2}{3}$$.
i.e., 0.6, 0.66, 0.666, …………..
$$\frac{1}{2}$$ = 0.666

2. $$\frac{5}{6}$$ = $$\frac{5×10}{6×10}$$ = $$\frac{5}{10}$$ x $$\frac{10}{6}$$ = $$\frac{5}{10}$$ x (1 + $$\frac{4}{6}$$

The fractions $$\frac{80}{100}$$, $$\frac{830}{1000}$$, $$\frac{8330}{5}$$, ………. and so on get closer and closer to $$\frac{5}{6}$$.
∴ $$\frac{5}{6}$$ = 0.8333………

3. $$\frac{1}{9}$$ = $$\frac{1×10}{9×10}$$ = $$\frac{1}{10}$$ x $$\frac{10}{9}$$

The fractions $$\frac{1}{10}$$, $$\frac{11}{100}$$, $$\frac{111}{1000}$$, ………… and so on get closer and closer to $$\frac{1}{9}$$.
∴ $$\frac{1}{9}$$ = 0.1111 ……

Hsslive Maths Class 9 Kerala Syllabus Question 2.

1. Using algebra, explain why $$\frac{1}{10}$$, $$\frac{11}{100}$$, $$\frac{1}{1000}$$, ………… of any number get closer and closer to $$\frac{1}{9}$$ of that number.
2. Use the general principle got above to single-digit numbers to find the decimal forms of $$\frac{2}{9}$$, $$\frac{4}{9}$$, $$\frac{5}{9}$$, $$\frac{7}{9}$$, $$\frac{8}{9}$$.
3. What can we say in general about decimal forms with a single digit repeating?

1. Let x be the number

The numbers $$\frac{x}{10}$$, $$\frac{11x}{100}$$, $$\frac{111x}{1000}$$, ……… comes closer and closer to $$\frac{x}{9}$$.
So the fraction $$\frac{1}{10}$$, $$\frac{11}{100}$$, $$\frac{111}{1000}$$, ……. comes closer and closer to $$\frac{1}{9}$$.

2. a.
$$\frac{1}{10}$$ part of a number comes closer to its $$\frac{1}{9}$$

b. $$\frac{1}{10}$$ part of a number comes closer to its $$\frac{1}{9}$$

c. $$\frac{1}{10}$$ part of a number comes closer to its $$\frac{1}{9}$$

d. Since $$\frac{1}{9}$$ is closes to $$\frac{1}{10}$$

e. Since $$\frac{1}{9}$$ is closes to $$\frac{1}{10}$$

3. The denominator of a fraction is 9 or multiple of 9 then its decimal froms is always a single digit repetition of their own numerator.

Continuing like this,
$$\frac{2}{11}$$ = 0.18181818 …….

b. $$\frac{3}{11}$$ = $$\frac{3×10}{11×10}$$ = $$\frac{3}{10}$$ x $$\frac{10}{11}$$

Continuing like this
$$\frac{3}{11}$$ = 0.272727…..

3. $$\frac{10}{11}$$ = $$\frac{10×10}{11×10}$$ = $$\frac{10}{10}$$ x $$\frac{10}{11}$$
