Various dimensions of the decimal system.

Various Dimensions :
Dimensions :
Different types of measurements are used to measure different objects, their length, size and mass. This is called dimension.

Decimal dimension :
Decimal method dimensions are used to measure length, mass and Volume of matter.

Important things :
1. Meters are used to measure the length of an object as well as space.
2. Measures the distance between two places or villages in kilometers.
3. Liters are used to measure liquids like milk, water, oil, etc.
4. Kilograms are used to measure food and other items.
5. Seconds, minutes and hours are used to measure time.

Length measurement :
1) 10 ml = 1 cm
2) 10 centimeters = 1 decimeter
3) 10 decimeters = 1 meter

1) 10 meters = 1 decimeter
2) 10 decimeters = 1 hectometer
3) 10 hectometers = 1 kilometer

1) 10 mg = 1 centigram
2) 10 centigram = 1 decigram
3) 10 decigrams = 1 gram

1) 10 Hectograms = 1 Kilograms
2) 100 kg = 1 quintal
3) 100 quintals = 1 ton

1) 60 seconds = 1 minute
2) 60 minutes = 1 hour

Examples :
1) 6 square meters = how many square centimeters ?
Ans. :
6 square meters = 6 × 100 × 100 Square centimeters
therefore, 6 square meters = 60,000 Square centimeters.

2) What is the ratio of 2.7 decaliters to 45 deciliters?
Ans. :
2.7 decaliter = 2.7 × 100
                        = 270 deciliters
Ratio = 270 / 45
           = 6 / 1
           = 6 : 1

3) One meter is how many inches ?
Ans. :
1 meter = 100 centimeters
1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
therefore, 100cm = 100 / 2.54 inch
                                 = 39.37 inch.

4) One acre is how many guntas ?
Ans. : 40 guntas.

5) Two kilograms is how many grams ?
Ans. :
1 kg = 1000 gm.
therefore,
2 kg = 2 × 1000
         = 2000 gm.

6) Meter is how many centimeters ?
Ans. 1 meter = 100 centimeters.

7) 1 cubic meter = how many cubic centimeters ?
Ans . :
1 meter = 100 centimeters.
1 cubic meter = 1000000 cubic centimeters.

Series Order tricks, shortcuts and examples.

Series Order tricks : A category of three, four or some numbers is given in the competitive examination. There is a mutual relationship among these numbers. The same relationship has to be understand and the same basis is to be increased further. Examples : 1) What will be the next number in the following series. 3, 10, 31, 94, ----- Ans. : Each terms is increasing by : ( n × 3 ) + 1. Therefore, ( 3 × 3 ) + 1 = 10 ( 10 × 3 ) + 1 = 31 ( 31 × 3 ) + 1 = 94 ( 94 × 3 ) + 1 = 283 Therefore, next number : 283. 2) Find the next order in the category. 1, 4, 9, 16, ---- Ans. : Each term is a squares of consecutive numbers. therefore, 5 × 5 = 25. therefore, next number = 25. Examples : Q. What will be the next number in the following series .  1) 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, ---- Ans. : The difference in each term is increasing in the form of consecutive numbers. that is 3 + 3 = 6. 06 + 4 = 10. 10 + 5 = 15. 15 + 6 = 21. 21 + 7 = 28.

Ratio and Proportion : Ratio: In a cricket match, Sachin scored 160 runs and Rahul scored 80 runs. We can compare their scores in two ways : 1) By Subtraction : Sachin's score - Rahul's score = 160 - 80                                                  = 80 Thus, we see that Sachin has scored 80 runs more than Rahul. 2 ) By division : Let us see how many times Sachin's score is that of Rahul's. To do this, we shall divide Sachin's score by Rahul's. Sachin's score / Rahul's  score = 160 /  80 = 2 / 1. Thus, we see, that Sachin's score is 2 times Rahul's score. Definition of Ratio : "When two quantities are compared by division, then the quotient of that division is called a 'ratio'. The colon ':' is used to express a ratio." The ratio x/y is written as 'x:y' and is read as 'x  is to y'. In the ratio x : y , we call x as the first te...

Mode in statistics : Mode definition : For example, some data such as follows : 2, 1, 2, 5, 4, 2, 2, 7, 8, 2. Here, 2 value repeated 5 times that is repeated many times as compared another data. Therefore, 2 is Mode." It is straight forward to calculate mode in case of individual and discrete data.               Mean          Median         Quartile How do you find the mode of  Individual Data ? Que. 1) The following are the marks of 10 students. Calculate the mode. 60, 67, 76, 56, 77, 67, 48, 67, 89, 90. Ans. : Marks            : 48  56  60  67  76  77  89  90 Frequency   :  01  01  01  03  01  01  01  01 Here 67 mark repeated many times that is 3 times. therefore, Mode = 67. Que. 2)  The following are the height in cm of 12 students. Calculate the mode. ...
