Question 1:

Write shaded portion as fraction. Arrange them in ascending and descending order using correct sign ‘<’, ‘=’, ‘>’ between the fractions:
(a)

(b)

(c) Show on the number line. Put appropriate signs between the fractions given.

Answer:

(a)

Here, 1st circle represents 3 shaded parts out of 8 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction .

Here, 2nd circle represents 6 shaded parts out of 8 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction .

Here, 3rd circle represents 4 shaded parts out of 8 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction .

Here, 4th circle represents 1 shaded part out of 8 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction .
Now, these fractions may be arranged as

(b)

Here, 1st square represents 8 shaded parts out of 9 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction.

Here, 2nd square represents 4 shaded parts out of 9 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction .

Here, 3rd square represents 3 shaded parts out of 9 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction .

Here, 4th square represents 6 shaded parts out of 9 equal parts. Therefore, it represents a fraction .
Now, these fractions can be arranged as

(c) To represent the given fractions  on number line, each unit length should be divided in 6 equal parts. Now, these fractions can be represented as

Question 2:

Compare the fractions and put an appropriate sign.
(a)  (b) 
(c)  (d) 

Answer:

(a) 
Here, the denominators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
(b) 

As 4 < 7,

(c) 
Here, the denominators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
(d) 
Here, the numerators are same. Therefore, the fraction having lesser denominator will be greater.



Q 3 - Ex 7.4 - Fractions - NCERT Maths Class 6th - Chapter 7

Question 3:

Make five more such pairs and put appropriate sign.

Answer:

(i) 
Here, the denominators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
(ii) 
Here, the denominators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
(iii) 
Here, numerators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the lesser denominator will be greater.
(iv) 
Here, the denominators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
(v) 
Here, the numerators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the lesser denominator will be greater.




Question 4:

Look at the figures and write ‘<’ or ‘>’, ‘=’ between the given pairs of fractions.

(a) 
(b) 
(c) 
(d) 
(e) 

Answer:

(a) Here, the numerators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the
lesser denominator will be greater.
Hence, 
(b) 

As the denominators of  are same, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(c) Here, the numerators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the lesser denominator will be greater.
Hence, 
(d) As  ,

(e) Here, the numerators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the lesser denominator will be greater.
Hence, 



Q 5 - Ex 7.4 - Fractions - NCERT Maths Class 6th - Chapter 7

(a)  (b) 
(c)  (d) 
(e)  (f) 
(g)  (h) 
(i)  (j) 
(k) 

Answer:

(a) Here, the numerators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the
lesser denominator will be greater.
Hence, 
(b) 
Hence, 
(c) 

As the denominators of  are same, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(d) 
As the denominators of  are same, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(e) Here, the denominators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(f) Here, the denominators are same. Therefore, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(g) 
Hence, 
(h) 
As the denominators of  are same, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(i) 
As the denominators of  are same, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(j) 
As the denominators of  are same, the fraction having the greater numerator will be greater.
Hence, 
(k) 
Hence,
