Answer:

We have,

(i) Comparing the whole number part, 78 > 69.
Thus, 78.23  > 69.85

(ii) Converting the decimals into like decimals, we get 3.406  and 3.460.
Comparing the whole number parts, 3 = 3
Comparing the tenths digit, 4 = 4
Comparing the hundredths digit, 6 > 0
Thus, 3.406  < 3.46

(iii)  Comparing the whole number parts, 5 = 5
Comparing the tenths digit, 6 <  8
Thus, 5.68  < 5.86

(iv) Converting the decimals into like decimals, we get 14.050 and 14.005.
Comparing the whole number parts, 14 = 14
Comparing the tenths digit, 0 = 0
Comparing the hundredths digit, 5 > 0
Thus,  14.05  > 14.005

(v) Converting the decimals into like decimals, we get 1.850 and 1.805.
Comparing the whole number parts, 1 = 1
Comparing the tenths digit, 8 = 8
Comparing the hundredths digit, 5 > 0
Thus, 1.85 > 1.805

(vi)  Comparing the whole number parts, 0 < 1
Thus, 0.98 < 1.07

Answer:

(i) First, we will find the product 13 ⨯ 1.3 ⨯ 0.13.
     Now, 13 ⨯ 13 ⨯ 13 = 169 x 13
                                    = 2197
    
     Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 2) = 3
     So, the product must have three decimal places.

     ∴ 13 ⨯ 1.3 ⨯ 0.13 = 2.197

(ii) First, we will find the product 2.4 ⨯ 1.5 ⨯ 2.5.
     Now, 24 ⨯ 15 ⨯ 25 = 360 x 25
                                   = 9000
    
     Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 1 + 1) = 3
     So, the product must have three decimal places.

     ∴ 2.4 ⨯ 1.5 ⨯ 2.5 = 9.000
                                 = 9

(iii) First, we will find the product 0.8 ⨯ 3.5 ⨯ 0.05.
       Now, 8 ⨯ 35 ⨯ 5 = 280 ⨯ 5
                                 = 1400
      
       Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 1 + 2) = 4
       So, the product must have four decimal places.

       ∴ 0.8 ⨯ 3.5 ⨯ 0.05 = 0.1400
                                     = 0.14

(iv) First, we will find the product 0.2 ⨯ 0.02 ⨯ 0.002.
       Now, 2 ⨯ 2 ⨯ 2 = 4 ⨯ 2
                                = 8
       Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 2 + 3) = 6
       So, the product must have six decimal places.
      
∴ 0.2 ⨯ 0.02 ⨯ 0.002 = 0.000008

(v) First, we will find the product 11.1 ⨯ 1.1 ⨯ 0.11.
       Now, 111 ⨯ 11 ⨯ 11 = 1221 ⨯ 11
                                       = 13431
      
       Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 1 + 2) = 4
       So, the product must have four decimal places.

       ∴ 11.1 ⨯ 1.1 ⨯ 0.11 = 1.3431

(vi) First, we will find the product 2.1 ⨯ 0.21 ⨯ 0.021.
       Now, 21 ⨯ 21 ⨯ 21 = 441 ⨯ 21
                                     = 9261
      
       Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = ( 1 + 2 + 3) = 6
       So, the product must have six decimal places.

       ∴ 2.1 ⨯ 0.21 ⨯ 0.021 = 0.009261

Answer:

(i) (1.2)2 = 1.2 × 1.2
     First, we will find the product 1.2 × 1.2.
     Now, 12 × 12 = 144
     Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 1) = 2
     So, the product must have two decimal places.

     ∴ (1.2)2 = 1.2× 1.2 = 1.44

(ii) (0.7)2 = 0.7 × 0.7
      First, we will find the product 0.7 × 0.7.
      Now, 7 × 7 = 49
      Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 1) = 2
      So, the product must have two decimal places.

     Now, 3 × 3 × 3 = 27
     Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 1 + 1) = 3
     So, the product must have three places of decimal.
     ∴ (0.3)3 = 0.3 × 0.3 × 0.3 = 0.027

(ii) (0.05)3 = 0.05 × 0.05 × 0.05
     First, we will find the product 5 × 5 × 5.
     Now, 5 ×5 × 5 = 125
     Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (2 + 2 + 2) = 6
     So, the product must have six decimal places.
     ∴ (0.05)3 = 0.05 × 0.05 × 0.05 = 0.000125

(iii) (1.5)3 = 1.5 ×1.5 ×1.5
       First, we will find the product 15 ×15 × 15.
       Now, 15 ×15 × 15 = 225 × 15 = 3375
      
       Sum of decimal places in the given numbers = (1 + 1 + 1) = 3
       So, the product must have three decimal places.
       ∴ (1.5)3 = 1.5 × 1.5 × 1.5 = 3.375

Answer:

Thickness of the pile of plywoods = 2.43 m = 2.43 × 100 cm = 243 cm
Thickness of one piece of plywood = 0.45 cm
∴ Required number of pieces of plywood = 2430.45=243×1000.45×100=2430045=540
   
   
Hence, the required number of pieces of plywood is 540.

Let the number of sides of the polygon be n.
Length of each side of the polygon = 3.8 cm
∴ Perimeter of the polygon = (3.8 × n) cm
But it is given that its perimeter is 22.8 cm.
∴ (3.8 × n) cm = 22.8 cm
n = 22.83.8 = 22838 = 6

Hence, the given polygon has six sides.

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.
Let the number added be x.
We have:
2.06 + x = 3.1
x = 3.1 − 2.06

Converting the given decimals into like decimals, we get:
2.06 and 3.10
Thus, required number = (3.10 − 2.06) = 1.04

Hence, 1.04 should be added to 2.06 to get 3.1.

Answer:

(b) 0.06
We have:
0.1 − x  = 0.04
x = 0.1 − 0.04
Converting the given decimals into like decimals, we get:
0.10 and 0.04
Thus, required number = (0.10 − 0.04) = 0.06
Hence, 0.06 should be subtracted from 0.1 to get 0.04.

(iii) 0.47 × 5.3 = 2.491

       Explanation: First, we will multiply 47 by 53.
                              
        ∴ 47 × 53 = 2491
        Sum of decimal places in the given decimals = (2 + 1) = 3
        ∴ 0.47 × 5.3 = 2.491

(iv) (0.7)2 = 0.49
        Explanation: (0.7)2 = 0.7 × 0.7
        First, we will find the product 0.7 × 0.7.
        Now, 7 × 7 = 49
        Sum of decimal places in the given decimals = (1 + 1) = 2
        So, the product must have two decimal places.
        ∴ (0.7)2 = 0.7 × 0.7 = 0.49

(v) (0.05)3 = 0.000125
      Explanation:  First, we will find the product 0.05 × 0.05 × 0.05.
      Now, 5 × 5 × 5 = 125
      Sum of decimal places in the given decimals = (2 + 2 + 2) = 6
      So, the product must have six decimal places.
      ∴ (0.05)3 = 0.05 × 0.05 × 0.05 = 0.000125
