Simplify: $7\frac{5}{6}-4\frac{3}{8}+2\frac{7}{12}$
AnswerWe have, $7\frac{5}{6}-4\frac{3}{8}+2\frac{7}{12}$
$=\frac{47}{6}-\frac{35}{8}+\frac{31}{12}$
Taking out the $LCM$ of $6, 8$ and $12$ we get, $2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 = 48$
Now, we convert the given fractions to equivalent fraction by making the denominators $48$
we get, $\frac{47\times8}{6\times8}-\frac{35\times6}{8\times6}+\frac{31\times4}{12\times4}$
$=\frac{376}{48}-\frac{210}{48}+\frac{124}{48}$
$=\frac{376-210+124}{48}$
$=\frac{290}{48}$
$=\frac{145}{24}$

By selling oranges at the rate of $₹\ 5\frac{1}{4}$ per orange, a fruit-seller gets $₹ 630$. How many dozens of oranges does he sell?
AnswerBy selling oranges at the rate of $₹\ 5\frac{1}{4}$ per orange, a fruit-seller gets $₹ 630.$
$5\Big(\frac{1}{4}\Big)=2\Big(\frac{1}{4}\Big)$ Number of oranges for $₹\ \frac{21}{4}=1$
Number of oranges for $₹\ 1=\frac{4}{21}$
Number of oranges for $₹ 630$ $=\frac{4}{21}\times630=120\text{ apples}$
$12$ apples $= 1$ dozen Therefore, $120$ apples $= 10$ dozen

Which is greater? $\frac{1}{2}\text{ of }\frac{6}{7}\text{ or }\frac{2}{3}\text{ of }\frac{3}{7}$
AnswerGiven, $\frac{1}{2}\text{ of }\frac{6}{7}\text{ or }\frac{2}{3}\text{ of }\frac{3}{7}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{6}{7}\text{ or }\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{3}{7}$
$=\frac{1\times6}{2\times7}\times\frac{2\times3}{3\times7}$
$=\frac{6}{14}\text{ or }\frac{6}{21}$
While comparing two fractions, when the numerators of both the fractions are same,
then the denominator having higher value shows the fraction has lower value.
So, $\frac{6}{14}$ is greater.
$\therefore\ \frac{1}{2}\text{ of }\frac{6}{7}$ is greater.
