Test: Parts and Wholes - 1 - Class 5 MCQ

5 parts are shaded in the piechart out of 16
That means fraction of shaded part is 5/16.

A fraction in which the numerator is larger than or equal to the denominator, like ⁵/₂, ¹⁷/₃, or ⁶/₆ is called an improper fraction.
To put it another way, a fraction with a value less than 1 is a proper fraction.
A mixed Fraction looks like this  and it value is greater than 1.

Total no of parts=56
Red parts out of total parts represents = ¹³/₂₈  That is 13 out of 28
But total cards are 56, So multiply both 13 and 28 by 2, we get
13 x 2 = 26 
28 x 2 = 56 
Hence from 56 total cards, 26 are coloured red.

A unit fraction is a fraction where the numerator (the top number) is 1, and the denominator (the bottom number) is a positive whole number.

- D option has only 1 unshaded part out of 5, i.e., it has ¹/₅ as unshaded fraction

- Hence Option D is the only correct option.

-Fractions can be reduced by using smaller common fractions, like dividing both by 2 until one of the numbers turns into an odd number.

-Alternatively, the highest common factor can be found, which is 52 in this case.

-Dividing both by 52, we get 5/6.

A fraction in which the numerator is smaller than the denominator, like ¹/₂, ²/₃, or ⁴/₆ is called a proper fraction.

To convert it multiply 154 x 9 = 1386
Now add 5 to it = 1386 + 5 = 1391 (numerator)
Now the fraction is ¹³⁹¹/ ₉

-To find an equivalent fraction, you multiply or divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number.

-For 3/5 , we multiply both by 2

3 x 2 = 6
5x 2 = 10

So, 6/10 is an equivalent fraction of 3/5. 

- The price for 1 kg of apples is 25 rupees.
- For 3/5 kg of apples:
- 3/5 x 25 = 15 rupees
- Therefore, the cost of 3/5 kg of apples is 15 rupees.
