3.13 Division facts

Now, let's learn a few important facts about division.

(i) When a number is divided by 1, the quotient is the number itself.

4 ÷ 1 = 4, 7 ÷ 1 = 7, 12 ÷ 1 = 12, and so on.

(ii) When a number is divided by itself, the quotient is always 1.

5 ÷ 5 = 1, 8 ÷ 8 = 1, 15 ÷ 15 = 1, and so on.

(iii) When 0 is divided by any non-zero number, the quotient is always 0.

0 ÷ 6 = 0, 0 ÷ 9 = 0, 0 ÷ 18 = 0, and so on.

(iv) Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

In 7 ÷ 2 = 3 is the quotient and 1 is remainder.

So, 7 = 2 × 3 + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7 = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

3.15 Divisibility Test
Let's discuss about the answer of these questions.
a) Are 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 exactly divisible by 2?
b) Are 3, 5, 7 and 9 exactly divisible by 2?
c) Are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 exactly divisible by 3?
d) Are 4, 5, 7, 8, 10 and 11 exactly divisible by 3?
When a dividend is divisible by a divisor with no remainder, the dividend

is called exactly divisible by the divisor.
10 ÷ 2 = 5 quotient with no remainder. 10 is exactly divisible by 2.
13 ÷ 2 = 6 quotient with 1 remainder. 13 is not exactly divisible by 2.
Now, let's learn a few rules of divisibility test.

Exactly Rules of divisibility test
divisible by

The digit at ones place of any number is 0 or even number

2 (2, 4, 6, 8). So, 90, 132, 754, 3616, 5978, ... are exactly

divisible by 2.

The sum of the digits of any number is exactly divisible by

3 3. In 225, 2 + 2 + 5 = 9 and 9 is exactly divisible by 3. So,

225 is exactly divisible by 3.

The number formed by last two digits of any number is

4 exactly divisible by 4. So, 92, 308, 924, 2564, ... are exactly

divisible by 4.

5 The digit at ones place is 0 or 5. So, 80, 170, 245, 4195, ...
are exactly divisible by 5.

6 Any even number exactly divisible by 3 are also exactly
divisible by 6. So, 84, 198, 2580, ... are exactly divisible by 6.

The sum of the digits of any number is exactly divisible by

9 9. In 486, 4 + 8 + 6 = 18 and 18 is exactly divisible by 9.

So, 486 is exactly divisible by 9.

10 The digit at ones place is 0. So, 70, 350, 830, 4120, ... are
exactly divisible by 10.

4.3 Use of brackets in simplification

Let's read these illustrations carefully and learn to use brackets in
simplifications.

Example 5: Multiply the sum of 5 and 4 by 7.
Solution

Here, the mathematical expression is (5 + 4) × 7 but not 5 + 4 × 7

(5 + 4) × 7 = 9 × 7 But 5 + 4 × 7 = 5 + 28 = 33 and it is the
wrong answer for the given problem
= 63

In this problem, at first, we need to find the sum of 5 and 4. Then, the sum
is multiplied by 7. Therefore, to find the sum at first, we enclose 5 + 4 in
the brackets ( ).

Example 6: Find 5 times the difference of 16 and 12.
Solution

Here, the difference of 16 and 12 = 16 – 12

So, 5 × (16 – 12) = 5 × 4

= 20

Example 7: Simplify a) 40 ÷ 5 × 2 + 12 – 7 b) 40 ÷ (5 × 2) + 12 – 7
Solution

a) 40 ÷ 5 × 2 + 12 – 7 b) 40 ÷ (5 × 2) + 12 – 7

= 8 × 2 + 12 – 7 = 40 ÷ 10 + 12 – 7

= 16 + 5 = 4 + 5

5.5 Proper and improper fractions

Let's investigate the ideas about proper and improper fractions from the
given illustrations.

Bishnu and Laxmi shared 1 bread Shiva and Parbati shared 2 breads

equally between them. equally between them.
1 Each got 2 ÷ 2 = 1 bread.
Each got 1 ÷ 2 = 2 of the bread.

Sita and Ram shared 3 breads equally

between them. 3 1
2 2
Each got 3 ÷ 2 = = 1 and bread.

Here, 1 of the bread has only a half part of the whole bread. So, 1 is a proper
2 2
3 1 3
fraction. But 2 of breads have 1 whole bread and 2 of a bread. So, 2 is an

improper fraction.

Now, let's compare the numerators and denominators of these proper

and improper fractions. Then, investigate the rule to identify proper and

improper fractions.

Proper fractions Improper fractions

2 → Numerator is smaller than 3 → Numerator is greater than
3 denominator. 2 denominator.

3 → Numerator is smaller than 5 → Numerator is greater than
5 denominator. 3 denominator.

Thus, in a proper fraction, numerator is less than denominator.

In an improper fraction, numerator is greater than denominator.

Story of 5 : A rectangle is divided into 2 equal parts and 5 parts are shaded!
2 Is it possible?

Story of 7 : A rectangle is divided into 3 equal parts and 7 parts are shaded!
3 Is it possible?

1 whole half

3 1 + 1 = 121 . So, 121 is a mixed number.
2 2

2 whole half

5 2 + 1 = 212 . So, 221 is a mixed number.
2 2

2 whole one-third

7 2 + 1 = 231 . So, 231 is a mixed number.
3 3

Thus, a fraction made up of a whole number and a proper fraction is called
mixed number (or mixed fraction).
