How to solve decimal fraction problem in Competitive Exams:

Q.1.  Convert the following into vulgar fractions :

(i) 0.75  (ii) 3.004  (iii) .0056

Solution :

$$  (1) \ 0.75= {75\over100}={3\over4}  $$

  $$  (2) \ 3.004= {3.004\over1000}={751\over250}  $$

  $$  (3) \ .0056= {56\over10000}={7\over1250}  $$

Q.2.What value will replace the question mark in the following equation  ?

(i) 5172.49+378.352+?=9318.678

(ii) ? – 7328.96 = 5169.38

Solution :

(i) Let 5172.49 + 378.352 + x = 9318.678

Then x = 9318.678 – (5172.49+378.352) = 9318.678 – 5550.842 = 3767.836.

(ii) Let x - 7328.96 = 5169.38. Then, x = 5169.38 + 7328.96 = 12498.34.

Q.3. Find the products : (i) 6.3204 × 100 (ii) .069 × 10000

Solution :

(i) 6.3204 × 100 = 632.04.  (ii) .069 × 10000 = .0690 × 10000 = 690.

Q.4. Find the products :

(i) 2.61 × 1.3   (ii) 2.1693 × 1.4 (iii) .4×.04×.004×40.

Solution : 

(i) 261 × 13 = 3393. Sum of decimal places of given numbers = (2+1) = 3.

∴ 2.61 × 1.3 = 3.393.

(ii) 21693 × 14 = 303702. Sum of decimal places = ( 4+1) = 5.

∴ 2.1693 × 1.4 = 3.03702.

(iii) 4 × 4 × 4 × 40 = 2560. Sum of decimal places = (1+2+3) = 6.

∴ .4 × .04 × .004 × 40. = .002560.

Q.5. Given that 268 × 74 = 19832, find the value of 2.68 × .74.

Solution : 

Sum of decimal places = (2+2) = 4.

∴ 2.68 × .74 = 1.9832.

Q.6. Find the quotient : 

(i) 0.63÷ 9      (ii) 0.0204 ÷ 17  (iii) 3.1603 ÷  13.

Solution : 

(i) 63 ÷ 9 = 7. Dividend contains 2 places of decimal.

∴ 0.63 ÷ 9 = .07.

(ii) 204 ÷ 17 = 12. Dividend contains 4 places of decimal.

∴ 0.0204  ÷ 17 = .0012

(iii) 31603  ÷ 13 = 2431. Dividend contains 4 places of decimal.

∴ 3.1603 ÷ 13 = .2431

Q.7. Evaluate : 

(i) 35 ÷.07     (ii) 2.5÷ .0005  (iii) 136.09 ÷ 43.9

Solution 

$$  (1) \  {35\over.07}={35 × 100\over.07× 100}={3500\over7}= 500  $$

  $$  (2) \   {2.5\over0.0005}={2.5×10000\over0.0005×10000}={2500\over5}=5000  $$

  $$  (3) \   {136.09\over43.9}={136.09 × 10\over43.9×10} = {1360.9\over439}=3.1 $$

  Q.8. What value will come in place of question mark in the following equations ?

(i) 0.006 ÷ ?      (ii) ? + .025 = 80

Solution :

(i) $$ Let, \ x={0.006 \over0.6}={0.006 \over0.6}= Then ={0.006 ×10 \over0.6×10}= {0.06 \over6}=0.01 $$

(ii) $$   Let\  {x\over .025}= 0.80 $$

  $$ Then, \ x= 80 ×.025 = 2. $$

Q.9. 12.1212 + 17.0005 – 9.1102 = ?

Given expression = (12.1212+17.0005) – 9.1102 = (29.1217 – 9.1102) = 20.0115

Q.10. 892.7 – 573.07 – 95.007 = ?

Given expression = 892.7 – (573.07 + 95.007) = 892.7 – 668.077 = 224.623.
