Guidance for solving exercises on page 66 Math 5 including solution methods
1. Solve exercise 1 on page 66 of Math 5 textbook
Problem:
Mental calculation:
a) 43.2 ÷ 10
0.65 ÷ 10
432.9 ÷ 100
13.96 ÷ 1000
b) 23.7 ÷ 10
2.07 ÷ 10
2.23 ÷ 100
999.8 ÷ 1000
Solution method:
To perform division of a decimal number by 10; 100; 1000;... we need to move the decimal point of that decimal number to the left correspondingly by one, two, three,... digits.
Answer:
a) 43.2 ÷ 10 = 4.32
0.65 ÷ 10 = 0.065
432.9 ÷ 100 = 4.329
13.96 ÷ 1000 = 0.01396
b) 23.7 ÷ 10 = 2.37
2.07 ÷ 10 = 0.207
2.23 ÷ 100 = 0.0223
999.8 ÷ 1000 = 0.9998
2. Solve exercise 2 on page 66 of Math 5 textbook
Problem:
Mental calculation then compare the results:
a) 12.9 ÷ 10 and 12.9 x 0.1;
b) 123.4 ÷ 100 and 123.4 x 0.01;
c) 5.7 ÷ 10 and 5.7 x 0.1;
d) 87.6 ÷ 100 and 87.6 x 0.01.
Solution method:
We perform multiplication of a decimal number by 0.1; 0.01; 0.001;... and division of a decimal number by 10; 100; 100;... normally then compare the results of those two operations.
Answer:
a) 12.9 ÷ 10 = 12.9 x 0.1 = 1.29 b) 123.4 ÷ 100 = 123.4 x 0.01 = 1.234
c) 5.7 ÷ 10 = 5.7 x 0.1 = 0.57 d) 87.6 ÷ 100 = 87.6 x 0.01 = 0.876
3. Solve problem 3 on page 66 of Math 5 textbook
Problem:
A rice warehouse has 537.25 tons of rice. One-tenth of the rice is taken out. How many tons of rice are left in the warehouse?
Solution method:
- Problem context: There are 537.25 tons of rice in the warehouse, one-tenth of which has been taken out
- Problem requirement: Find the remaining tons of rice in the warehouse
- Approach:
+ Calculate the tons of rice taken out by multiplying the tons of rice in the warehouse by 1/10
+ Calculate the remaining tons of rice in the warehouse by subtracting the tons of rice taken out from the initial tons of rice in the warehouse.
Answer:
The rice taken out is:
537.25 ÷ 10 = 53.725 (tons)
The remaining rice in the warehouse is:
537.25 - 53.725 = 483.525 (tons)
Final answer: 483.525 (tons).
