Answer : 1. "0.625"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 0.625 Explanation: 5/8 is Nothing but to divide 5 into 8 parts.     As 5 is smaller than 8, the quotient starts with a decimal point to make 5 as 50 to be divisible by 8. (0.)     Now 50 goes for 6 times in 8 leaving a remainder 2. (0.6)      Again 2 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 2 becomes 20.      Now 20 goes for 2 times in 8 leaving a remainder 4. (0.62)      Again 4 is smaller than 8, As it already has decimal point in the quotient, now 4 becomes 40.     Now 40 goes for 5 times in 8 leaving a remainder 0. (0.625)     Therefore, the decimal value of 58 is 0.625.   Now find a decimal value of 1117 and Discuss your at Discuss.

Answer : 1. "5100 sq.m"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 5100 sq.m Explanation: Let the breadth of floor be 'b' m. Then, length of the floor is 'l = (b + 25)' Area of the rectangular floor = l x b = (b + 25) × b According to the question, (b + 15) (b + 8) = (b + 25) × b b2 + 8b + 15b + 120 = b2 + 25b 2b = 120 b = 60 m. l = b + 25 = 60 + 25 = 85 m.   Area of the floor = 85 × 60 = 5100 sq.m.
