Multiplication of Fractions

Multiplying a fraction by a whole number:

Example 1: 7 × (1/2) = 7/2

Example 2: 5 × (4/45) = 20/45, Dividing a number by a denominator by 5, we get 7/9

Fraction multiplication by fraction is actually a numerical product / product of denominators.

Solved Examples

Q1. If x= 9/11 and y= 4/15, then the value of x - y is

  1. 5/165
  2. 36/165
  3. 91/165
  4. 98/165

Ans. Correct answer is 4

x-y = 9/11 - 4/15

= 135-44/165

= 91/165

Q2. Reciprocal of 7 is

  1. -7
  2. 1
  3. 7
  4. 1/7

Ans. Correct answer is 4

We know that the reciprocal of x (or inverse of x)

= 1/x

Therefore, the reciprocal of 7 = 1/7

Q3. If the cost of 12 bananas is Rs 26.50, then the cost of 6 such bananas will be

  1. Rs 10.50
  2. Rs 12
  3. Rs 13.25
  4. Rs 20

Ans. Correct answer is 3

Given, the cost of 12 bananas = Rs 26.50 The cost of 1 banana = Rs 26.50/12

Therefore, the cost of 6 bananas = Rs (26.50/12) x 6

= Rs 13.25.

Q4. If the side of a square is 12.5 cm, then the area of square will be

  1. 156.25 cm2
  2. 160 cm2
  3. 173.5 cm2
  4. 180 cm2

Ans. Correct answer is 1

Given, side of a square = 12.5 cm

Area of square = side x side = 12.5 x 12.5 cm2

= 156.25 cm2.

  1. 0.044
  2. 0.44
  3. 4.04
  4. 4.4

Ans. Correct answer is 1

0.04 x 1.1 = 0.044.

Q6. Decimal form of 15 rupees 5 paise is

  1. Rs 15
  2. Rs 15.5
  3. Rs 155.0
  4. Rs 15.05

Q7. The value of 4kg 625g in gm will be

  1. 4.620 g.
  2. 4625 g
  3. 40625 g
  4. 400625 g

Ans. Correct option is 2

4kg 625g = 4 kg + 625 g

= (4 x 1000 + 625) g [1kg=1000g]

= (4000 + 625) g

= 4625 g

Q8. If the length of a rectangle is 7.1 cm and its breadth is 2.5 cm, then the area of rectangle will be

  1. 4.6 cm2
  2. 4.8 cm2
  3. 8.875 cm2
  4. 17.75 cm2

Ans. Correct Answer is 4

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

= 7.1 cm x 2.5 cm

= 17.75 cm2

Q9. If a car covers a distance of 95.5 km in 2.5 hours, then the average distance covered by it in 1 hour will be

  1. 38 km
  2. 38.2 km
  3. 38.3 km
  4. 39 km

Ans. Correct option is 1

Distance covered by the car = 95.5 km

And, the time required to cover this distance = 2.5 hours

Therefore, distance covered by it in 1 hour = 95.5/2.5 = 955/25

= 38.2 km

Q10. If we shift the decimal point two places towards right of a number 0.045, then the new number is

  1. 0.0045
  2. 4.5
  3. 45
  4. 450

Ans. Correct option is 2

Shifting the decimal points two places towards right of 0.045 means 0.045 x 100, which gives the number 4.5.
