Working with Fractions Class 7 Assertion and Reason Questions

In each of the following questions, two statements have been given. One has been labelled as Assertion (A) and the other has been labelled as Reason (R). You have to choose the correct option, from the given four options.

(a) Both the statements (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

(b) Both the statements (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

(c) (A) is correct but (R) is not correct.

(d) (R) is correct but (A) is not correct.

1. (A): [latex]\frac {3}{4}[/latex] × 36 is equal to 27.

(R): 3 × 3 × 3 = 27.

Answer:

(b) Both the statements (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

2. (A): 5 - 3[latex]\frac {5}{9}[/latex] is equal to 2[latex]\frac {5}{9}[/latex].

(R): 5 - 3 is equal to 2.

Answer:

(d) (R) is correct but (A) is not correct.

3. (A) Product of [latex]\frac {7}{9}[/latex] × [latex]\frac {13}{8}[/latex] is equal to [latex]\frac {91}{72}[/latex].

(R) Product of two fractions is equal to

[latex]\frac {product of their numerators}{product of their denominators}[/latex]

Answer:

(a) Both the statements (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

4. (A): Product of [latex]\frac {5}{3}[/latex] and [latex]\frac {11}{9}[/latex] is greater than [latex]\frac {11}{9}[/latex].

(R): Product of two fractions greater than 1 is greater than each of the two fractions.

Answer:

(a) Both the statements (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

5. (A) Product of [latex]\frac {9}{11}[/latex] and [latex]\frac {17}{15}[/latex] is greater than [latex]\frac {9}{11}[/latex].

(R): Product of a fraction less than 1 and a fraction greater than 1 is greater than both the fractions.

Answer:

(c) (A) is correct but (R) is not correct.
