Important exam questions with answers
What is a fraction? Explain with an example from the chapter.
A fraction represents a part of a whole divided into equal parts. For example, dividing one roti between two people gives each person 1/2 of the roti.
Which is greater: 1/5 or 1/9? Explain why.
1/5 is greater than 1/9 because when the numerator is the same, the fraction with the smaller denominator is larger. Sharing among 5 people gives bigger pieces than sharing among 9.
Define unit fractions and give two examples from the chapter.
Unit fractions have numerator 1 and represent one part of equal divisions. Examples are 1/2 (half a roti) and 1/4 (one-fourth of a roti).
Hindi explanation
