Real numbers are extremely useful in everyday life. That is probably one of the main reasons we all learn how to count and add and subtract from a very young age. Real numbers help us to count and to measure out quantities of different items in various fields like retail, buying, catering, publishing etc. Every normal person uses real numbers in his daily life. After knowing the importance of real numbers, try and improve your knowledge about them by answering the following questions on real life based situations.

Real Number Case Study Questions With Answer Key Answer Keys
-
(i) (d) : For a number to end in zero it must be divisible by 5, but 4n = 22n is never divisible by 5. So, 4n never ends in zero for any value of n.
(ii) (c) : We know that product of two rational numbers is also a rational number.
So, a2 = a x a = rational number
a3 = a2 x a = rational number
a4 = a3 x a = rational number
................................................
...............................................
an = an-1 x a = rational number.
(iii) (d): Let x = 2m + 1 and y = 2k + 1
Then x2 + y2 = (2m + 1)2 + (2k + 1)2
= 4m2 + 4m + 1 + 4k2 + 4k + 1 = 4(m2 + k2 + m + k) + 2 So, it is even but not divisible by 4.
(iv) (a): Let three consecutive positive integers be n, n + 1 and n + 2.
We know that when a number is divided by 3, the remainder obtained is either 0 or 1 or 2.
So, n = 3p or 3p + lor 3p + 2, where p is some integer. If n = 3p, then n is divisible by 3.
If n = 3p + 1, then n + 2 = 3p + 1 + 2 = 3p + 3 = 3(p + 1) is divisible by 3.
If n = 3p + 2, then n + 1 = 3p + 2 + 1 = 3p + 3 = 3(p + 1) is divisible by 3.
So, we can say that one of the numbers among n, n + 1 and n + 2 Wi always divisible by 3.
(v) (d): Any odd number is of the form of (2k +1), where k is any integer.
So, n2 - 1 = (2k + 1)2 -1 = 4k2 + 4k
For k = 1, 4k2 + 4k = 8, which is divisible by 8.
Similarly, for k = 2, 4k2 + 4k = 24, which is divisible by 8.
And for k = 3, 4k2 + 4k = 48, which is also divisible by 8.
So, 4k2 + 4k is divisible by 8 for all integers k, i.e., n2 - 1 is divisible by 8 for all odd values of n. -
(i) (b): Here 80 = 24 x 5, 85 = 17 x 5
and 90 = 2 x 32 x 5
L.C.M of 80, 85 and 90 = 24 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 17 = 12240
Hence, the minimum distance each should walk when they at first time is 12240 cm.
(ii) (c): Here 594 = 2 x 33 x 11 and 189 = 33 x 7
HCF of 594 and 189 = 33= 27
Hence, the maximum number of columns in which they can march is 27.
(iii) (c) : Here 768 = 28 x 3 and 420 = 22 x 3 x 5 x 7
HCF of 768 and 420 = 22 x 3 = 12
So, the container which can measure fuel of either tanker exactly must be of 12litres.
(iv) (b): Here, Length = 825 ern, Breadth = 675 cm and Height = 450 cm
Also, 825 = 5 x 5 x 3 x 11 , 675 = 5 x 5 x 3 x 3 x 3 and 450 = 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 5
HCF = 5 x 5 x 3 = 75
Therefore, the length of the longest rod which can measure the three dimensions of the room exactly is 75cm.
(v) (a): LCM of 8 and 12 is 24.
\(\therefore \)The least number of pack of pens = 24/8 = 3
\(\therefore \)The least number of pack of note pads = 24/12 = 2 -
(i) (b): Here \(\sqrt{8}\) = 2\(\sqrt{2}\) = product of rational and irrational numbers = irrational number
(ii) (c): Here, \(\sqrt{9}\) = 3 So, 2 + 2\(\sqrt{9}\)= 2 + 6 = 8 , which is not irrational.
(iii) (b): Here.\(\sqrt{15}\) and \(\sqrt{10}\) are both irrational and difference of two irrational numbers is also irrational.
(iv) (c): As \(\sqrt{5}\) is irrational, so its reciprocal is also irrational.
(v) (d): We know that \(\sqrt{6}\) is irrational. So, 15 + 3.\(\sqrt{6}\) is irrational.
Similarly, \(\sqrt{24}\) - 9 = 2.\(\sqrt{6}\) - 9 is irrational.
And 5\(\sqrt{150}\) = 5 x 5.\(\sqrt{6}\) = 25\(\sqrt{6}\) is irrational. -
(i) (c): Here, the simplest form of given options are
125/441 = 53/(32 x 72), 77/210 = 11/(2 x 3 x 5),
15/1600 = 3/(26 x 5) Out of all the given options, the denominator of option (c) alone has only 2 and 5 as factors. So, it is a terminating decimal.
(ii) (b): 23/(23 x 52) = 23/200 = 0.115
(iii) (a): 441/(22 x 57 x 72) = 9/(22 x 57), which is a terminating decimal.
(iv) (d): The fraction form of a non-terminating recurring decimal will have at least one prime number other than 2 and 5 as its factors in denominator. So, p can take either of 3, 7 or 15.
(v) (a): Here denominator has only two prime factors i.e., 2 and 5 and hence it is a terminating decimal. -
(i) (b): LCM of x and y = p3q3 and HCF of x and y = p2q Also, LCM = pq2 x HCF.
(ii) (d): Number of marbles = 5m + 2 or 6n + 2.
Thus, number of marbles, p = (multiple of 5 x 6) + 2
= 30k + 2 = 2(15k + 1)
= which is an even number but not prime
(iii) (d): Here, required numbers
= HCF (398 - 7, 436 - 11,542 -15)
= HCF (391,425,527) = 17
(iv) (b): LCMof126and600 = 2 x 3 x 21 x 100= 12600 The least positive integer which on adding 1 is exactly divisible by 126 and 600 = 12600 - 1 = 12599
(v) (a): Here 8SC - 340A = 109 and 425A + 85B = 146 On adding them, we get 85A + 85B + 85C = 255 ~ A + B + C = 3, which is divisible by 3. -
(i) (d):
Total number of participants = 60 + 84 + 108
= 252
(ii) (d):
60 = 22 x 3 x 5
84 = 22 x 3 x 7
108 = 22 x 33
LCM(60, 84, 108) = 22 x 33 x 5 x 7
= 3780
(iii) (a):
60 = 22 x 3 x 5
84 = 22 x 3 x 7
108 = 22 x 33
HCF(60, 84, 108) = 22 x 3
= 12
(iv) (c):
Minimum number of rooms required for all the participants = 252/12
= 21
(v) (d):
Minimum number of rooms required for all = 21 + 1 = 22 -
(a) (ii)
96 = 25 x 3
240 = 24 x3 x5
(b) (iii)
Total number of books = 96 +240+336=672
Number of books in each stack = 48
\(\therefore\) Number of stacks formed -= \(\frac{672}{48}=14\)
(c) (i)
Number of mathmatics books = 336
Number of stacks of mathematics books formed = \(\frac{336}{48}\)
= 7
(d) (iv)
Number of books in each stack of english books = 48
Thickness of each english book = 3 cm
\(\therefore\) Height of each stack of english books = (48X3) cm
= 144cm
(e) (iii)
Number of books in a stack of hindi books = 48
Weight of each hindi book = 1.5kg
\(\therefore\) The weight of books in a stack of hindi books
= (48X1.5)kg = 72kg
