D Correct answer
Explanation

Price$=Rs\ 10\dfrac {3}{4}=Rs.\cfrac{43}{4}$ per liter


Price of $6\dfrac {2}{5} l=\cfrac{32}{5}l=Rs.\cfrac{43}{4}\times \cfrac{32}{5}=Rs.\cfrac{344}{5}=Rs.68\cfrac{4}{5}$

A rational number between $\dfrac {-2}{3}$ and $\dfrac {1}{2}$ is

  1. $-\dfrac {3}{6}$
  2. $\dfrac {-1}{12}$
  3. $\dfrac {-5}{6}$
  4. $\dfrac {5}{6}$

A Correct answer
Explanation

To find a rational number between -2/3 and 1/2, we need a value satisfying -2/3 < x < 1/2. Option A: -3/6 = -1/2, which satisfies -2/3 < -1/2 < 1/2. Option B: -1/12 ≈ -0.083 also satisfies the condition, making both A and B technically correct.

The pair of rational numbers lying between $\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}$ and $\displaystyle -\frac{3}{4}$ is ?

  1. $\displaystyle \frac{262}{1000}$, $\displaystyle \frac{752}{1000}$
  2. $\displaystyle \frac{63}{250}$, $\displaystyle \frac{187}{250}$
  3. $\displaystyle \frac{13}{50}$, $\displaystyle \frac{264}{350}$
  4. $\displaystyle \frac{9}{50}$, $\displaystyle \frac{31}{40}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The rational numbers $\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}$ and $\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}$ can be written
as $\displaystyle \frac{250}{1000}$ and $\displaystyle \frac{750}{1000}$ Therefore $\displaystyle \frac{63}{250}=\frac{252}{1000}$

and $\displaystyle \frac{187}{250}=\frac{748}{1000}$ satisfy this condition

D Correct answer
Explanation

Convert the rational numbers into equivalent rational numbers with the same denominator.


LCM of $9\;and\;5$ is $45$.

$-\displaystyle\frac{1}{9}=\displaystyle\frac{-1\times5}{9\times5}=\displaystyle\frac{-5}{45}\;and\;\displaystyle\frac{1}{5}=\displaystyle\frac{1\times9}{5\times9}=\displaystyle\frac{9}{45}$

The integers between $-5\;and\;9$ are
$-4,\,-3,\,-2,\,-1,\,0,\,1,\,2,\,3,\,4,\,5,\,6,\,7,\,8$.

The corresponding rational numbers are $\displaystyle\frac{-4}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{-3}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{-2}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{-1}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{0}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{1}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{2}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{3}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{4}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{5}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{6}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{7}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{8}{45}$

On selecting any $9$ of them, we get $9$ rational numbers between $-\displaystyle\frac{1}{9}\;and\;\displaystyle\frac{1}{5}$

$\displaystyle\frac{-4}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{-3}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{-2}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{-1}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{2}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{3}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{4}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{5}{45},\,\displaystyle\frac{8}{45}$

A rational number between $\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}$ and $\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}$ is

  1. $\displaystyle \frac{7}{24}$
  2. $0.29$
  3. $\displaystyle \frac{13}{48}$
  4. All the above

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

$\dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{6}{24} = \dfrac{12}{48} = 0.25$


$\dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{8}{24} = \dfrac{16}{48} = 0.33$

From this, we can see $\dfrac{7}{24} , \dfrac{13}{48}, 0.29$ all lie between $\dfrac{1}{4}$ and $\dfrac{1}{3}$
