Question 1.
Represent the fraction $\frac{1}{4}$ in decimal form
Solution:
$\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1 \times 25}{4 \times 25}=\frac{25}{100}=0.25$
Question $2 .$
What is the place value of 5 in $63.257$.

Solution:
0
Question $4 .$
Express the decimal number $3.75$ as a fraction.
Solution:
$3.75=\frac{375}{100}=\frac{15}{4}$
Question $5 .$
Write the decimal number for the fraction $5 \frac{1}{5}$
Solution:
$5 \frac{1}{5}=\frac{26}{5}=\frac{26 \times 2}{5 \times 2}=\frac{52}{10}=5.2$
Question 6 .
Identify the biggest number : $0.567$ and $0.576$.
Solution:
Comparing the digits of $0.567$ and $0.576$ from left to right, we have the tenths place same comparing the hundredths place $7>6$.
$\Rightarrow 0.576>0.567$
Question 7.
Compare $3.30$ and $3.03$ and identify the smaller number.
Solution:
The whole number is equal in both the numbers.
Now comparing the tenths place we have $3>0$
$\Rightarrow 3.03<3.30$ Smaller number is $3.03$
Question 8 .
Put the appropriate sign $(<,>,=) .2 .57[] 2.570$
Solution:
$2.57[=] 2.570$
Question $9 .$
Arrange the following decimal numbers in ascending order.
$5.14,5.41,1.54,1.45,4.15,4.51$.
Solution:
Comparing the numbers from left to right. Ascending order : $1.45,1.54,4.15,4.51,5.14,5.41$

Question 1.
Find the following using grid models:
(i) $0.83+0.04$
(ii) $0.35-0.09$
Solution:
(i) $0.83+0.04$
$0.83=\frac{83}{100}$ and $0.04=\frac{4}{100}$
Shading the regions
$0.83$ and $0.04$
The sum is the total shaded region.
$\mathrm{S}=0.83+0.04=0.87$
(ii) $0.35-0.09$
$0.35=\frac{35}{100} \text { and } 0.09=\frac{9}{100}$
Shading the regions $0.35$ by shading 35 boxes out of 100 . Striking off 9 boxes out of 35 shaded boxes to subtract $0.09$ from $0.35$.
The left over shaded boxes represent the required value.
$\therefore 0.35-0.09=0.26$

Question $1 .$
Using the area models solve the following
(i) $1.2+3.5$
(ii) $3.5-2.3$
Solution:
(i) $1.2+3.5$
Here $1.2$ is represented in blue colour and $3.5$ is represented in Green colour. Sum of $1.2$ and $3.5$ is $4.7$.
(ii) $3.5-2.3$
3.5 - $2.3$
Representing $3.5$ using 3
Representing $3.5$ using 3 squares and 5 rectangular strips. Crossing out 2 squares from 3 squares and 3 rectangular strips from 5 to get the difference. So $3.5-2.3=1.2$.

Question 1.
How are the products $2.1 \times 3.2$ and $21 \times 32$ alike? How are they different.
Solution:
$2.1 \times 3.2=6.72$ and $21 \times 32=672$.
In both the cases the digits ambers are the same. But the place value differs.

Question $1 .$
Shade the grid to multiply $0.3 \times 0.6$.
Solution:
3 rows of Yellow represent $0.3,6$ columns of Red colour represent $0.6$ Double shaded 18 squares of orange colour
represent. $\therefore 0.3 \times 0.6=0.18$
$\therefore 0.3 \times 0.6=0.18$
Question 2.
Use the area model to multiply
Solution:
Here each row contains 1 whole and 2 tenths. Each column contains 2 wholes and 5 tenths. The entire area model represents 2 wholes 9 tenths and 10 hundredths ( $=1$ tenths). So $1.2 \times 2.5=3$.
