Raman ate 7 pieces of 1/4, Radhika ate 6 pieces of 1/4, Maa ate 8 pieces of 1/4 , Dadiji ate 10 pieces of 1/4, and Baba ate 12 pieces of 1/4 paratha. Use a number line to find out how many parathas were eaten by each of them.
Let’s change quarters into parathas. Raman ate 7/4 = 1¾ parathas. Radhika ate 6/4 = 1½ parathas. Maa ate 8/4 = 2 parathas. Dadiji ate 10/4 = 2½ parathas. Baba ate 12/4 = 3 parathas. On the number line, these points are clear when I mark in steps of 1/4. It helps me see exactly how much each one ate.Read more

See lessRaman’s family of 6 members ordered 2 pizzas and cut each pizza into 3 equal slices so that each family member had one slice. Dadiji and Dadaji gave their slices to Raman, Maa, and Baba gave theirs to Radhika. How much pizza do each of them have after this?
There were 2 pizzas, cut into 6 slices of 1/3 each. Every member got one slice. Then, Dadiji and Dadaji gave their slices to Raman. So, Raman had 3/3, which is 1 full pizza. Maa and Baba gave their slices to Radhika. She too got 3/3, which is 1 full pizza. Finally, Raman and Radhika had 1 pizza eachRead more

See lessUse parathas and number lines to show the following fractions in your notebook. (a) 2/3 and 5/3 (b) 3/4 and 5/4 (c) 4/8 and 9/8
On a number line, divide into equal parts. (a) For thirds, 2/3 is less than 1, 5/3 is more than 1 (1⅔). (b) For fourths, 3/4 is just below 1, and 5/4 is more than 1 (1¼). (c) For eighths, 4/8 = 1/2, and 9/8 = 1⅛. Drawing parathas also shows how improper fractions cross one whole. For more NCERead more

See lessCircle the fractions that are greater than one (whole). How do you know? Discuss your reasoning in the class. 7/9, 3/9, 7/11, 9/4, 9/4, 2/5, 5/7, 4/9, 5/4, 7/3, 13/11, 2/3, 12/5, 12/8
Looking at the fractions, whenever the numerator is bigger than the denominator, the value is more than one. So, 9/4, 9/4, 5/4, 7/3, 13/11, 12/5, and 12/8 are greater than 1. For example, 12/8 = 1½, 13/11 = 1 and 2/11. Fractions like 7/9 or 2/5 are less than one, so they are not circled. ForRead more

See lessLet us compare some more fractions. Between Sevi and Shami can you tell who ate less?
If we look at equal denominators, the fraction with the smaller numerator is always less. For example, Sevi ate 1/3, and Shami ate 2/3. Since 1/3 < 2/3, Sevi ate less. On the number line too, 1/3 is to the left of 2/3. This shows Sevi ate less than Shami, who got a bigger share of the food.Read more
