MCQ 41 Mark
Which of the following is an example of distributive property over addition for rational number?
  • A
    $\frac{-5}{4} \times\left(\frac{6}{17}+\frac{15}{9}\right)=\left(\frac{6}{17}+\frac{15}{9}\right) \times\left(\frac{-5}{4}\right)$
  • $\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}-\frac{19}{2}\right)=\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)-\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{19}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{15}+\frac{19}{2}\right)=\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)+\frac{2}{3}+\frac{19}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{15}{8} \times\left[\frac{6}{17}+\left(\frac{-5}{4}\right)\right]=\frac{15}{8} \times \frac{6}{17}+\left(\frac{-5}{4}\right)$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}-\frac{19}{2}\right)=\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)-\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{19}{2}$
(B) $\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}-\frac{19}{2}\right)=\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)-\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{19}{2}$
Hint Distributive property starts that
$a \times(b+c)=(a \times b)+(a \times c)\qquad\ldots\text{(i)}$
From option (b),
Let $a=\frac{2}{3}, b=\frac{-7}{18}$ and $c=-\frac{19}{2}$
Then, from Eq. (i), we get
$\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}-\frac{19}{2}\right)=\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)-\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{19}{2}$

MCQ 111 Mark
To get the product $\frac{-4}{5}$, we should multiply $\frac{10}{11}$ by
  • A
    $\frac{14}{5}$
  • B
    $\frac{-4}{25}$
  • $\frac{-22}{25}$
  • D
    $\frac{-9}{5}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{-22}{25}$
(C) $\frac{-22}{25}$
Hint Let the required number be x.
According to the question,
$x \times \frac{10}{11}=\frac{-4}{5} \Rightarrow \frac{10}{11} \times x=\frac{-4}{5}$
$\Rightarrow \quad x=\frac{-4}{5} \div \frac{10}{11} \Rightarrow x=\frac{-4}{5} \times \frac{11}{10}=\frac{-44}{50}$
$\therefore \quad x=\frac{-22}{25}$

MCQ 131 Mark
Which of the following is not true?
  • A
    $\frac{10}{11}+\frac{11}{12}=\frac{11}{12}+\frac{10}{11}$
  • B
    $\frac{10}{11} \times \frac{11}{12}=\frac{11}{12} \times \frac{10}{11}$
  • $\frac{10}{11}÷\frac{11}{12}=\frac{11}{12}+\frac{10}{11}$
  • D
    $\frac{10}{11}÷\frac{11}{12}=\frac{10}{11} \times \frac{12}{11}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{10}{11}÷\frac{11}{12}=\frac{11}{12}+\frac{10}{11}$
(C) $\frac{10}{11}÷\frac{11}{12}=\frac{11}{12}+\frac{10}{11}$
Hint We have,
$\begin{aligned} \frac{10}{11}÷\frac{11}{12} & =\frac{11}{12}+\frac{10}{11} \\ \text { LHS } & =\frac{10}{11}÷\frac{11}{12}=\frac{10}{11} \times \frac{12}{11}=\frac{120}{121} \\ \text { RHS } & =\frac{11}{12}÷\frac{10}{11}=\frac{11}{12} \times \frac{11}{10}=\frac{121}{120} \\ \therefore \text { LHS } & \neq \text { RHS }\end{aligned}$
