    The length of the square should be 16 cm. The number of squares are 12. The length of each square is determined by finding the highest common factor of the length and breadth of the sheet. Dividing the total area by the area of each square gives the number of squares.

    Q9

    answer : 7, 21 and 63
    explanation : first of all, find prime factors of 9, 12 and 252 .
    prime factors of 9 = 3 × 3
    prime factors of 12 = 2 × 2 × 3
    prime factors of 252 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 7
    it is given that LCM of 9, 12 and n is 252
    neither of prime factors of them {9, 12} contains 7.
    so, n must contain 7. it can also contain 2 and 3.
    so, n = 7, 2 × 7 , 3 × 7, 2 × 3 × 7 , 2 × 2 × 7, 3 × 3 × 7
    = 7, 14, 21, 28, 63
    but n is odd so, n = 7, 21 and 63.

    Q12

    Kate wishes to cut some square from a vanguard sheet with a length of 64 cm
    and a breadth of 48 cm. she likes the square to be big as possible and she does
    not want any leftover vanguard sheetwhat is the length of each square ?
    How many square can she cut altogether

    The length of the square should be 16 cm.

    The number of squares are 12.


    Step-by-step explanation:
    Consider the provided information.
    The length of vanguard sheet is 64 cm and breadth of sheet is 48 cm.
    First find the HCF of 64 and 48.
    64 = 2×2×2×2×2×2
    48= 2×2×2×2×3
    The HCF is 2×2×2×2 = 16.
    Hence, the side of the largest square should be 16 × 16.
    The area of the sheet is: 64×48 = 3072 cm²
    The area of square is: 16 × 16= 256 cm²
    Thus the number of squares:
    Hence, the number of squares are 12.

    Q 13

    A class has 30-40 students. Each boy in the class bring 15 chocolate bars for a
    class party to celebrate Teacher's Day. The chocolate bars are shared equally
    among the 20 girls of the class and their form teacher with no leftovers.(i) How
    many students are there in the class?
    ii) How many chocolate bars does their form teacher received

    Answer:
    34
    Step-by-step explanation:
    In order to divide some multiple of 15 chocolate bars evenly by 21, the number of
    bars must be a multiple of the LCM of 15 and 21, which is 105. That number is 7
    times 15, indicating the number of boys in the class must be a multiple of 7. The
    only number between 30-20 = 10 and 40-20 = 20 that is a multiple of 7 is 14.
    There must be 14 boys in the class, so 34 students in total.
    __
    The boys brought a total of 210 chocolate bars, so each girl and the teacher
    received 10 of them.

    Q 14

    Michael is an art elective programme student whois working on an assignment.


    He plans to cover a
    rectangular sheet of paper of dimensions 126 cm by
    108 cm with identical square patterns.
    (i) What is the least number of square patterns
    that could be formed on the sheet of paper?
    (ii) How do you determine what other shapes
    can the patterns be if they are to fit the sheet of
    paper perfectly? Explain your answer.

    Step-by-step explanation:
    Let's find the prime factors of given numbers:

     126= 2*3*3*7- this side can be cut into any number here or combination of
    numbers as per factors
     108= 2*2*3*3*3 - same as above

    As per prime factors, the squares can be of sizes:


    2×2, 3×3, 6×6, 9×9 and 18×18
    The least number can be obtained with the biggest size option 18×18, this will
    give 7*6=42 squares

    Q 15

    Michael, the art elective programme student,is working on another assignment.


    He designs a
    rectangular pattern measuring 45 mm by 42 mm.
    He is required to use identical rectangular patterns to
    form a square. The maximum area of the square
    allowed is 1.6 m².
    (i) How many patterns does he need to form the
    smallest square?
    (ii) What are the dimensions of the largest square
    that he can form?

    (a)
    LCM of 45 and 42 is 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 630
    630/45 = 14
    630/42 = 15
    15 x 14 = 210
    (b)
    sq rt of 1.6 sq m =1.264911m = 1264.911mm
    1264.911/630 = 2.0077952 almost = 2
    2 x 630 = 1260
    1260mm = 1.26m
    Ans : (a) 210 patterns; 1.26m x 1.26m.
