CBSE Class 9 Maths Worksheet Chapter 1 Number System - Download Free PDF with Solution

When it comes to Maths as a whole, not many people excel in this subject as it is a subject that solely relies on the logical reasoning functions of the brain. That is why the number system can be intimidating to most students. In Chapter 1, Number System for Class 9, students will learn the number system and their types and how to solve the equations. 


So, what is the number system, and what does the number system syllabus contain? A number system can be defined as an arithmetic system or practice of writing numbers to express them. It is the mathematical notation for continuously representing numbers of any given set by using a certain set of digits, symbols, or other characters. It offers a unique representation of every number. It signifies the arithmetic and algebraic structure of the given figures, permitting us to carry out mathematical calculations such as addition, subtraction, and division. 


All these figures carry their values, which can be determined by looking at the digit, the position in the number, and the base of the number. A number is a mathematical value used to count, measure, or label objects. Regarding the number system, these numbers are used as digits. 


With the help of worksheets such as the Number System Class 9 worksheet, Class 9 Maths Chapter 1 worksheet pdf, and worksheet for Class 9 Maths Chapter 1 with solutions and the operations on Real Numbers Class 9 worksheet, students will have a better understanding of what number systems are and how to solve them accurately.

Answers to the Worksheet:

1. (d)

A rational number cannot have a non-terminating or non-repeating decimal form.


2. (c) 

Between two rational numbers, there are infinitely many rational numbers. 

E.g. $\dfrac{3}{5}$ and $\dfrac{4}{5}$ are two rational numbers, then $\dfrac{31}{50} \dfrac{32}{50} \dfrac{33}{50} \dfrac{34}{50} \dfrac{35}{50} \ldots$ are infinite rational number between them.


3. (d) 

The product of two irrational numbers can be rational or irrational depending on the two numbers.

For example, $\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{3}$ is 3 which is a rational number whereas $\sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{4}$ is $\sqrt{8}$ which is an irrational number. As $\sqrt{3}, \sqrt{2}, \sqrt{4}$ are irrational.

Hence, option D is correct.


4. (a) $\sqrt{7}$ is an irrational number.

$\dfrac{3}{7}$

0.36

Terminating Decimal

0.18181818………

Recurring decimal and Non- Terminating


Explanation:



Explanation

Value of 1.9999…..

Let, $x=1.999$      …(1)

Since only 1 digit is repeating.

So, by multiplying $x$ by 10 , we get

$10 x=19.99$      …(2)

Subtracting equation (1) from (2), we get

$9 x=18$

$\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{18}{9}$

$\Rightarrow x=2$

The value of $1.999 \ldots$ in the form $\dfrac{p}{q}$, where $p$ and $q$ are integers an $q \neq 0$, is 2 .

The Simplest form of a rational number $\dfrac{177}{413}$

$\dfrac{177}{413}$ = $\dfrac{3 \times 59}{7 \times 59}$

59 will cancel out, therefore, we get

= $\dfrac{3}{7}$

0.36

A terminating decimal is a decimal, that has an end digit. It is a decimal, which has a finite number of digits(or terms). Hence, 0.36 is terminating decimal.

0.18181818………

Non-terminating decimals are the one that does not have an end term. Hence, 0.18181818……… is non-terminating decimal.


8. Given an example of two irrational numbers whose;

  1. Product is an irrational number $\sqrt{6} \times \sqrt{3}=\sqrt{6 \times 3}=\sqrt{18}=3 \sqrt{2}$

  2. Difference is a irrational number $\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{3}$ = $\sqrt{3}$

  3. Division is an irrational number $\dfrac{\sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{3}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{6}{3}}=\sqrt{2}$


9. Simplify; $(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{6})(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{6})$ 

We know that, $(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2$

Then,

= $\left((\sqrt{5})^2-(\sqrt{6})^2\right)$

= $5-6$

= $-1$


10. $\sqrt[3]{1331}-\sqrt{100}+\sqrt{81}$

= $\sqrt[3]{11^3}-\sqrt{10^2}+\sqrt{9^2}$

= $11-10+9$

= $1+9$

= 10


11. $\dfrac{11^{\dfrac{1}{2}}}{11^{\dfrac{1}{4}}}$

$\dfrac{11^{\dfrac{1}{2}}}{11^{\dfrac{1}{4}}}=11^{\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{4}}$

$=11^{\dfrac{2-1}{4}}$

$=11^{\dfrac{1}{4}}$


12. Let, 

$p= 0.777…$ ....   (1)

Multiply both side in above equation 10

Then, 

$10p= 7.777…$ ….(2)


Subtracting equation (1) from (2), we get;

$10p-p= 7.777… - 0.777…$

$9p= 7$

$p= \dfrac{7}{9}$


13. Three rational number between $\dfrac{9}{11}$ and $\dfrac{5}{11}$

Rational number of $\dfrac{9}{11}$ and $\dfrac{5}{11}$ is denominator same

Then,

$= \dfrac{9}{11}, \dfrac{8}{11}, \dfrac{7}{11}, \dfrac{6}{11}, \dfrac{5}{11}$


14. $\dfrac{\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{12}}{\sqrt{32}+\sqrt{48}}$

$= \dfrac{\sqrt{2^3}+\sqrt{4 \times 3}}{\sqrt{8 \times 4}+\sqrt{8 \times 6}}$

$= \dfrac{2 \sqrt{2}+2 \sqrt{3}}{4 \sqrt{2}+4 \sqrt{3}}$

$= \dfrac{2(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3})}{4(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3})}$

$= \dfrac{(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3})}{2(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3})}$

$= \dfrac{1}{2}$


15. If $a=2$ and $b=3$

The value of $a^b+b^a$

$= 2^3+3^2$

$= 8+9$

$= 17$


16. $2^{\dfrac{2}{3}} \cdot 2^{\dfrac{1}{5}}$

$2^{\dfrac{2}{3}} \cdot 2^{\dfrac{1}{5}}=2^{\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{1}{5}} \quad \because a^p \cdot a^q=a^{p+q}$

$=2^{\dfrac{10+3}{15}}$

$=2^{\dfrac{13}{15}}$


17. Value of $\dfrac{1}{a^b+b^a}$, where $a=5, b=2$

$= \dfrac{1}{5^2+2^5}$

$= \dfrac{1}{25+32}$

$= \dfrac{1}{57}$


18. Here we have : $\sqrt[3]{2}, \sqrt{3}, \sqrt[5]{5}$

We can also write the expression in simpler form as follows:

$2^{\dfrac{1}{3}}, 3^{\dfrac{1}{2}}, 5^{\dfrac{1}{6}}$

Now we can see that in the denominators of the exponents we have: $3,2,6$

We will now take the LCM of $3,2,6$, which is 6 .

Now we will make all the denominators equal to 6 , so we have to multiply by the multiples in both numerator and denominator.

We can write the numbers as:

$2^{\dfrac{1}{3}} \times \dfrac{2}{2}=2^{\dfrac{2}{6}}$

For the second number we can write:

$3 \dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{3}{3}=3 \dfrac{3}{6}$

Since in the third number we already have the desired denominator, so the third number is

$5^{\dfrac{1}{6}}$

Now we will again write the numbers in the root under, but we have to keep in mind that the numerator will turn as the exponential powers inside the root.

So we have the numbers as:

$\sqrt[6]{2^2}, \sqrt[5]{3^3}, \sqrt[5]{5}$

We will simplify the values inside the root, so we have:

$\sqrt[5]{4}, \sqrt[6]{27}, \sqrt[5]{5}$

From this we can write the smaller value in the front and then the larger value:

$\sqrt[5]{4}, \sqrt[6]{5}, \sqrt[5]{27}$

Hence the original numbers in ascending form are:

$\sqrt[3]{2}, \sqrt[6]{5}, \sqrt{3}$


19. $(4 \sqrt{5}+3 \sqrt{7})^2$

We know that,

$(a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2 a b$

$=(4 \sqrt{5})^2+(3 \sqrt{7})^2+2 \times (4 \sqrt{5}) (3 \sqrt{7})$

$=80+63+24 \sqrt{5 \times 7}$

$=143+24 \sqrt{35}$


20. $\left(\dfrac{y}{x}\right)^{2 a-8}=\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^{a-1}$

Rewrite,

$\left(\dfrac{y}{x}\right)^{2 a-8}=\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^{8-2 a}$   $ \because (x)^{-a}=\dfrac{1}{x^a}$

Then,

$\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^{8-2 a}=\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^{a-1}$

When the bases of both sides of an equation are the same, then their exponents are also equal.

$\Rightarrow 8-2 a=a-1$

$\Rightarrow 2 a+a=8+1$

$\Rightarrow 3 a=9$

$\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{9}{3}$

$\Rightarrow a=3$


21. $\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{7}}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{7}} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{7}}$

(Dividing and multiplying by $\sqrt{7}$ )

$=\dfrac{\sqrt{7}}{7}$


22. Writing $\pi$ as $\dfrac{22}{7}$ is only an approximate value and so we can't conclude that it is in the form of a rational. In fact, the value of $\pi$ is calculating as non-terminating, non-recurring decimal as $\pi=3.14159$ Whereas

If we calculate the value of $\dfrac{22}{7}$ it gives $3.142857$ and hence $\pi \neq \dfrac{22}{7}$

In conclusion $\pi$ is an irrational number.


23. Let $x=0.001001 \ldots \ldots$ (1)

Since 3 digits are repeated multiply both the sides of (1) by 1000

$1000 x=1.001001 \ldots$

$1000 x=1+0.001001 \ldots$

$1000 x=1+x$

$1000 x-x=1$

$999 x=1$

$x=\dfrac{1}{999}$

$\therefore 0 . \overline{001}=\dfrac{1}{999}$


24. Since we make the denominator the same first, then

$\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{3 \times 5}{4 \times 5}=\dfrac{15}{20}$

$\dfrac{4}{5}=\dfrac{4 \times 4}{5 \times 4}=\dfrac{16}{20}$

Now we need to find 5 rational no.

$\dfrac{15}{20}  =\dfrac{15 \times 6}{20 \times 6}=\dfrac{90}{120}$

$\dfrac{16}{20}=\dfrac{16 \times 6}{20 \times 6}=\dfrac{96}{120}$

$\therefore$ Five rational numbers between $\dfrac{3}{4}$ and $\dfrac{4}{5}$ are $\dfrac{91}{120}, \dfrac{92}{120}, \dfrac{93}{120}, \dfrac{94}{120}$ and $\dfrac{95}{120}$


25. We can find any number of rational numbers between two rational numbers. First of all, we make the denominators same by multiplying or dividing the given rational numbers by a suitable number. If denominator is already same then depending on number of rational no. we need to find in question, we add one and multiply the result by numerator and denominator.

$3=\dfrac{3 \times 7}{7} \text { and } \quad 4=\dfrac{4 \times 7}{7}$

$3=\dfrac{21}{7} \quad \text { and } \quad 4=\dfrac{28}{7}$

We can choose 6 rational numbers as: $\dfrac{22}{7}, \dfrac{23}{7}, \dfrac{24}{7}, \dfrac{25}{7}, \dfrac{26}{7}$ and $\dfrac{27}{7}$

    • Natural numbers

    • Whole numbers

    • Integers

    • Fractions

    • Rational numbers

    • Irrational numbers

    • Real numbers

    • Imaginary numbers

    • Prime and composite numbers

  • Natural numbers are the root forms of numbers between 0 to infinity. They are also named “positive numbers” or “counting numbers” and are represented by the symbol N. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on)

  • Whole numbers are natural numbers, with the only difference being the inclusion of 0. They are represented by the symbol W. (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on)

  • Integers contain whole numbers and the negative values of natural numbers and don’t include fractions, so their numbers can’t be written in the “a/b” format. It ranges from infinity at the negative end to infinity at the positive end, including 0 and is represented by Z. (...-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3… and so on)

  • Fractions are numbers written in the “a/b” format, where “a” (numerator) is a whole number, and “b” (denominator) is a natural number. Hence, the denominator can never be 0. (2/4, 0/10, 5/7, etc.)

  • Rational numbers can be written in fractions where “a” and “b” are both integers and b ≠ 0. All fractions are rational numbers, but all rational numbers are not fractions.(-5/9, 3/9, -8/14, etc)

  • Irrational numbers are numbers that can’t be written in fractional forms. (√8, √.127, √3.209, etc)

  • Real numbers can be written in decimals, including whole numbers, integers, fractions, etc. All integers belong to real numbers, but not all real numbers belong to integers. (1.25, 0.467, 8.9, etc.)

  • Imaginary numbers are not real numbers, resulting in negative numbers when squared or put together. They are also named complex numbers and are represented by the symbol i. (√-3, √-16, √-1, etc.)

  • Numbers that don’t have other factors except 1 are called prime numbers, and the rest of the numbers - except 0 - are called composite numbers, as 0 is neither a prime nor a composite number. ( 2, 3, 5… are prime numbers whereas 4, 6, 8… are composite numbers)
