Notes
Using Decimal number as units:
1. Decimals in money:
We know that 100 paise = Rs. 1.
Therefore, 1 paise = Rs. ` 1/100` = Rs. 0.01.
2. Decimals in length measurement:
10 millimetre(mm) = 1 centimetre(cm)
100 centimetre(cm) = 1 metre(m)
1000 millimetre(mm) = 1 metre(m)
1 Kilometr e (Km) = 1000 metre(m)
1 centimetre(cm) = `1/(100) "m" or 0.01 "m"`
3. Decimals in weight measurement:
We know that 1000 g = 1 kg
Therefore, 1 g = `1/(1000)` kg = 0.001 kg.
Example
Express as rupees using decimals.
65 paise
65 paise = Rs. `65/100` = Rs. 0.65
Example
Express as cm using decimals.
7 cm and 5 mm
7 cm and 5 mm
= 7 cm + `5/10`cm
= `7 5/10`
= 7.5 cm
Example
Express as metres using decimals.
5 m and 875 mm
5 m and 875 mm
= 5 + `875/1000`
= `5 875/1000`
= 5.875 m.
Example
Express as metres using decimals.
5 m and 20 cm
5 m and 20 cm
= 5 + `20/100`
= `5 20/100`
= 5.20 m
Example
Express as kg using decimals.
2350 g
2350 g
= 2000 g + 350 g
= `2000/1000 "kg" + 350/1000 "kg"`
= 2 kg + 0.350 kg
= 2.350 kg
i.e. 2350 g = 2 kg 350 g = 2.350 kg.
