1. Find the ratio of:
(a) ₹ 5 to 50 paise
Solution:
First, we convert ₹ 5 to paise to find the ratio,
We know that,
₹ 1 = 100 paise
So,
₹ 5 = 5 × 100
= 500 paise
According to the question we have to find the ratio,
= 500/50
= 10/1
Hence, the required ratio is 10: 1.
(b) 15 kg to 210 g
Solution:
First, we convert 15 Kg in g,
We know that,
1 kg = 1000 g
So,
15 kg = 15 × 1000 = 15000 g
According to the question we have to find the ratio,
= 15000/210
= 1500/21
Dividing both by 3
= 500/7
Hence, the required ratio is 500: 7.
(c) 9 m to 27 cm
Solution:
First, we convert m 9 m into cm,
We know that,
1 m = 100 cm
So,
9 m = 9 × 100 = 900 cm
According to the question we have to find the ratio,
= 900/27
Dividing both by 9
= 100/3
Hence, the required ratio is 100: 3.
(d) 30 days to 36 hours
Solution:
First, we convert 30 days into hours to find the ratio,
We know that,
1 day = 24 hours
So,
30 days = 30 × 24 = 720 hours
According to the question we have to find the ratio,
= 720/36
Dividing both by 36
= 20/1
Hence, the required ratio is 20: 1.
2. In a computer lab, there are 3 computers for every 6 students. How many computers will be needed for 24 students?
Solution:
Given,
Total number of computers required for 6 students = 3
So, the total number of computers required for 1 student = (3/6)
= ½
Now, total number of computer required for 24 students = 24 × ½
= 24/2
= 12
Hence, the total number of computers required for 24 students is 12.
3. Population of Rajasthan = 570 lakhs and population of UP = 1660 lakhs.
Area of Rajasthan = 3 lakh km2 and area of UP = 2 lakh km2.
(i) How many people are there per km2 in both these States?
(ii) Which State is less populated?
Solution:
(i) Given,
Population of Rajasthan = 570 lakh
Area of Rajasthan = 3 lakh Km2
So, population of Rajasthan in 1 km2 area = (570 lakh)/ (3 lakh km2)
= 190 people per km2
Now,
Population of UP = 1660 Lakh
Area of UP = 2 Lakh km2
Then, population of UP in 1 lakh km2 area = (1660 lakh)/ (2 lakh km2)
= 830 people per km2
(ii) By comparing the two states Rajasthan is the less populated state.
