Question $1 .$
Convert the following fractions into the decimal numbers.
(i) $\frac{16}{1000}$
(ii) $\frac{638}{10}$
(iii) $\frac{1}{20}$
(iv) $\frac{3}{50}$
Solution:
(i) $\frac{16}{1000}=0.016$
(ii) $\frac{638}{10}=63.8$
(iii) $\frac{1}{20}=\frac{1 \times 5}{20 \times 5}=\frac{5}{100}=0.05$
(iv) $\frac{3}{50}=\frac{3 \times 2}{50 \times 2}=\frac{6}{100}=0.06$
Question $2 .$
Write the fraction for each of the following:
(i) 6 hundreds $+3$ tens $+3$ ones $+6$ hundredths $+3$ thousandths.
(ii) 3 thousands $+3$ hundreds $+4$ tens $+9$ ones $+6$ tenths.
Solution:
(i) 6 hundreds $+3$ tens $+3$ ones $+6$ hundreds $+3$ thousandths. $=6 \times 100+3 \times 10+3 \times 1+0 \times \frac{1}{10}+6 \times \frac{1}{100}+3 \times \frac{1}{1000}$ $=600+30+3+0+\frac{6}{100}+\frac{3}{1000}$
$=633+0.06+0.003$
$=633.063$
(ii) 3 thousands $+3$ hundreds $+4$ tens $+9$ ones $+6$ tenths. $=3 \times 1000+3 \times 100+4 \times 10+9 \times 1+6 \times \frac{1}{10}$ $=3000+300+40+9+\frac{6}{10}$
$=3349+0.6$
$=3349.6$
Question $3 .$
Convert the following decimals into fractions.
(i) $0.0005$
(ii) $6.24$
Solution:
(i) $0.0005=\frac{5}{10000}=\frac{5 \div 5}{10000 \div 5}=\frac{1}{2000}$
(ii) $6.24=\frac{624}{100}=\frac{624 \div 4}{100 \div 4}=\frac{156}{25}$

Question $1 .$
Mark the following decimal numbers on the number line.
(i) $0.3$
(ii) $1.7$
(iii) $2.3$
Solution:
(i) $0.3$
We know that $0.3$ is more than 0 , but less than 1 .
There are 3 tenths in it. Divide the unit lenght between $\mathrm{O}$ and 1 on the number line into 10 equal parts and take 3 parts, which represent $0.3$.
(ii) $1.7$
We know that $1.7$ is more than 1 , but less than 2 .
There are one ones and 7 tenths in it. Divide the unit length between 1 and 2 on the number line into 10 equal parts and take 7 parts which represents $1.7=1+0.7$
$1.7$
(iii) We know that $2.3$ is more than 2 and less than $3 .$
There are 2 ones and 3 tenths in it. Divide the unit length between 2 and 3 into 10 equal parts and take 3 parts, which represents $2.3=2+0.3$
Question $2 .$
