1.Assertion (A) – 22/10=0.22
Reason (R) – Decimals can be written in fraction form. To convert a decimal to a fraction,
place the decimal number over its place value.
2.Assertion (A) – 55m=0.55km
Reason (R) – Length is a measure of how long an object is or the distance between two
points.
3.Assertion (A) – 7/27 is a like fraction
Reason (R) – Fractions with same denominators are called like fractions.
4.Assertion (A) – Three parts out of 4 equal parts is ¾.
Reason (R) – The whole may be a single object or a group of objects.
5.Assertion[A]- The equivalent fraction of 20/36 with denominator 9 is 5/9.
Reason (R) – Equivalent fractions are two or more fractions that are all equal
6.Assertion (A) – The minimum marks obtained by any student is 100 out of 100
Reason (R) – Data is a collection of numbers gathered to give some information.
7.Assertion (A) –
Reason (R) –The most common blood group is B.
8.Assertion (A) –
Reason (R) – AB is the rarest group.
9.Assertion (A) – An athlete takes 10 rounds of a rectangular park, 40 m long and 30 m
wide. The total distance covered by him is 1400m
Reason (R) – The amount of surface enclosed by a closed figure is called its area.
10.Assertion (A) – Apala went to a park 20 m long and 10 m wide. She took one complete
round of it. The distance covered by her is 60m.
Reason (R) – The amount of surface enclosed by a closed figure is called its area
11.Assertion (A) – Perimeter of a rectangle =2 × (Length × Breadth).
Reason (R) – Perimeter is the distance covered along the boundary forming a closed
figure when you go round the figure once
12.Assertion (A) – Perimeter of a regular pentagon =5 × Length of a side
Reason (R) – The amount of surface enclosed by a closed figure is called its perimeter.
13.Assertion (A) – 25 km: 60 km:: ₹ 10: ₹ 24.
Reason (R) – two ratios are equal, we say that they are in proportion and use the symbol
‘:’ or ‘=’ to equate the two ratios.
14.Assertion (A) – 15:40:: 10:30
Reason (R) – Proportion says that two ratios (or fractions) are equal
15.Assertion (A) – The rule, which gives the number of matchsticks required to make the
matchstick pattern L, is 2n.
Reason (R) – For n = 1, the number of matchsticks required = 2 × 1 = 2
16.Assertion (A) – ½ fraction of a day is 12 hours
Reason (R) – a fraction is a number representing part of a whole
17.Assertion (A) – 15/20 is equivalent to 3/4
Reason (R) – A fraction is said to be in the simplest (or lowest) form if its numerator and
denominator have no common factor except 1.
18.Assertion (A) – ₹ 5: ₹ 25 = 12g: 60g
Reason (R) – Proportion says that two ratios (or fractions) are equal
19.Assertion (A) – 1:2 is not equivalent to 10:5
Reason (R) – we can get equivalent ratios by multiplying or dividing the numerator and
denominator by the same number.
20.Assertion (A) – The rule, which gives the number of matchsticks required to make the
matchstick pattern L, is 2n.
Reason (R) – For n = 1, the number of matchsticks required = 2 × 1 = 2
21.Assertion (A) – The expression for ‘1’ subtracted from p’ is p-1.
Reason (R) – any equation like the above, is a condition on a variable. It is satisfied only
for a definite value of the variable.
22.Assertion (A) – The rule, which gives the number of matchsticks required to make the
matchstick pattern F, is 2n
Reason (R) – For n = 3, the number of matchsticks required = 2 × 3 = 6 etc.
23.Assertion (A) – The rule, which gives the number of matchsticks required to make the
matchstick pattern A, is 3n.
Reason (R) – n is an example of a variable. Its value is not fixed; it can take any value 1,
2, 3, 4,…. We wrote the rule for the number of matchsticks required using the variable n.
24.Assertion (A) – Perimeter of a regular hexagon =6 × Length of a side
Reason (R) – Perimeter is the distance covered along the boundary forming a closed
figure when you go round the figure once
25.Assertion: 16/10 is an equivalent fraction of 8/5.
Reason: Equivalent fractions are two or more fractions that are all equal.
