Key Topics for NCERT Exemplar Class 6th Mathematics Solutions Chapter 4: Components and Decimals
Introduction:
A fraction is a number that represents a fraction of a sum. A theme can be a single object or a set of objects. The parts are equal in quantity.
Proper Fraction:
In the right fraction, the number indicates the number of parts considered and the denominator indicates the number of parts in which the total is divided. Therefore, the denominator is always greater than the number in the correct fraction.
Improper Fraction:
Fractions where the number is greater than the denominator, are known as Improper fractions.
Mixed Fraction:
The component numbers that consist of both, part and total, are known as Mixed Fractions. The mixed part can be shown as the wrong part.
Equivalent Fraction:
Equivalent fractions represent the same part of the whole. To find the equal part of a given fraction, you can multiply or divide the number and the denominator of a given fraction by the same number.
Simplest Form of Fraction:
If there are no common features between a number and a denominator, the component should be the simplest.
Like and Unlike Fractions:
Like fractions with the same denominator while different fractions have different denominators. Fractions can be compared by turning them into parallel pieces and arranging them in an ascending or descending order.
Adding and Subtraction:
Adding and subtracting similar fractions is done by adding their numbers.
Adding and subtracting different fractions is done by translating them into the same fractions.
Decimals:
One-tenth of a block is divided into 10 parts and 100 parts can be written as 0.1 and 0.01 by the decimal point, where the dot is the decimal point and reaches the tenth place respectively.
All decimals can also be represented on a number line.
All decimals can be written as fractions.
When decimals are compared, every part is first compared, then tens and so on.
Addition and subtraction of decimals can be done in the same way as whole numbers by adding/subtracting one hundredth from one hundred and one-tenth out of ten, one in one and so on.
Decimals have many applications in our daily lives such as representing different units of measurement or representing parts of every business.
