1. Both fractions have 4 pieces eaten, but the size of each piece is different. One-fifth piece is bigger than one-sixth piece. So, eating 4 fifths means eating a larger portion than eating 4 sixths. Using the fraction kit, I see that 4/5 covers more than 4/6. Therefore, the child who ate 4/5 paratha hRead more

  2. Maa got 5 pieces, and each piece was half a paratha. So, 5 × 1/2 = 5/2 parathas. When I change 5/2 into a mixed number, it becomes 2½. That means Maa ate 2 full parathas and 1 half paratha. So, in total, she enjoyed 2½ parathas, not just 2 or 3.   For more NCERT Solutions for Class 5 MathematicRead more

  3. Dadiji’s parathas were cut into halves. She ate 7 pieces of 1/2. That is 7 × 1/2 = 7/2 parathas. When I write this as a mixed number, it becomes 3½. So, Dadiji ate 3 complete parathas and half of another one. Altogether, she had three and a half parathas for herself.   For more NCERT SolutionsRead more

  4. Let’s convert halves into parathas. Raman ate 6 halves = 6/2 = 3 parathas. Dadaji ate 7 halves = 7/2 = 3½ parathas. Baba ate 5 halves = 5/2 = 2½ parathas. On the number line, we can see their positions: Raman at 3, Dadaji at 3½, and Baba at 2½. So, each person’s paratha count is clear and correct.Read more

  5. All parathas were cut into fourths. Dadaji ate 9 such pieces. That is 9 × 1/4 = 9/4 parathas. When I write it as a mixed number, it becomes 2¼. This means he ate 2 whole parathas and one piece of 1/4 paratha more. So, his total food was 2¼ parathas.   For more NCERT Solutions for Class 5 MathemRead more
