A. Finding the quotient using the relationship between Decimals and Fractions.Example1.) 1.5 ÷ 3
Solution1.5 ÷ 3 = 15/10 ÷ 3/1 = 15/10 x 1/3 = 5/10 = 0.5
2.) 3.24 ÷ 4 = 324/100 ÷ 4 = 324/100 x ¼ = 81/100 = 0.81
Solution 2 .5 7 2 ) 5.14 4 1 1 10 1 4 14 0
Example1.) The total mass of 5 identical boxes is 12.95 kg. What is the mass of each box?A. Given 1. The total mass of 5 identical boxes is 12.95 kg.
B. Required 1. The mass of each box.C. Solution Let MB = Mass of each box TMB = Total mass of the 5 boxes. Then, MB = TMB ÷ 5 = 12.95 kg ÷ 5 MB = 2.59 kg
2.) The length of 1 inch is about 2.5 centimeters. If boy’s waist measures 60 centimeters, how much does it measures in inches?
Example1.) 5.8 + ( 0.63 x 12)= 5.8 + 7.56 = 13.362.) ( 19.8 ÷ 6 ) – ( 0.35 x 8.1) = 3.3 – 2.835 = 0.465
SOLVING WORD PROBLEMSAPPLYING THE COMBINED OPERATIONS ON DECIMALS
Example1.) John bought 12.85 kg of grapes. He gave 3.5 kg of the grapes to his mother. Then, he divided the remaining grapes equally among his 25 cousins. How many kilograms of grapes did each cousin get?
A. Given 1.) John bought 12.85 kg of grapes. 2.) The 3.5 kg of the grapes was given to his mother. 3.) He divided the remaining grapes equally among his 25 cousins.
B. Required 1.) The mass of grapes each cousin got in kilograms.
C. Solution Let MGBJ = The mass of the grapes bought by John. MGJGM= Mass of the grape John gave to his mother.
DRGEC – The division of the remaining grapes equally among his 25 cousins. MGECG – The mass of the grapes each cousin got in kilograms.
MGECG = ( MGBJ – MGJGM) ÷ DRGEC = (12.85 – 3.5) ÷ 25 = 9.35 ÷ 25 = 0.374 kg of grapesD. Answer Each cousin got 0.374 kg of grapes.
2.) 50.4 kg of rice P and 187.1 kg of rice Q are mixed and packed into bags of 95 kg each. How many of the bags of rice can be packed in total?
A bottle of shampoo costs 8.75 Baht and a bottle of hair conditioner costs 8.75 Baht more than the bottle of shampoo. If John purchase 5 bottles of shampoo and 5 bottles of hair conditioner, how much money will he have to pay?
