Learning Outcomes: 1. Represent fractions 101 and 100

1 as decimals and vice-versa.

2. Represent fractions with denominators 10, 100 and 1000 as decimals. 3. Read and write decimals to thousandths. 4. Compare the values of two given decimals. 5. Arrange decimals in order. Teaching Aids: Concrete materials or diagrams that show decimals, rulers, coins, erasers, sharpeners and flash cards that show decimals in numbers and words.

Notes: This lesson consists of four activities that are Activity 1 – 4. Worksheet 4.1 is also included. The time needed to complete this activity is 40 minutes. Since decimals had been taught in primary school (up to 3 decimal places), teacher has to consider pupils’ weaknesses and make necessary adjustments to the activities so that the lesson would be more effective and interesting. These activities are related to questions in Worksheet 4.1: Activity 1: Question 1 Activity 2: Question 2 Activity 3: Question 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 Activity 4: Question 8, 9.

Teacher’s Guide Sheet 4.5 Concept: Represent fractions with denominators 10, 100, 1000 as decimals. Learning Outcome: Round off decimals to the nearest whole number or up to three decimal places. Teaching Aids: Flash cards

Note: This lesson consists of two activities. Time given is 40 minutes. These activities are related to questions in Worksheet 4.5. Activity 1: Question 1 - 5 Activity 2: Question 6 – 8

Activity 1

Approach Class/Groups

Aim To introduce on how to round off decimals.

Steps 1. Inform pupils that decimals can also be rounded off like whole numbers. Example: (a) (Whole number) 42 589 can be rounded off to 42 600 if we round off to the nearest

hundred or 43 000 if we round off to the nearest thousand. (b) (Decimals) A company has a capital of RM17.254 million. To make it easier for

certain discussion, we can state the number as RM17 million or RM17.3 million or RM17.25 million.

2. Have pupils discuss in small group on: (a) How to round off the decimal numbers to whole numbers? 15.2, 15.4, 15.5, 15.6, 15.7 15.61, 15.62, 15.63, 15.64, 15.65, 15.66 (b) How to round off the following numbers to one decimal place? 15.42, 15.44, 15.45, 15.46, 15.47 15.441, 15.442, 15.443, 15.444, 15.445, 15.446

Page 22: Chapter 4 Decimals

22

3. Introduce the clues of round off decimals: Retain the digit in the stated decimal place that we want to round off if

the digit in the right is less than 5. Add 1 to the digit in the stated decimal place that we want to round off if

the digit in the right is 5 or more.

4. In groups, extend the activities to two and three decimal places. Give

some examples. Example: 15.4452 rounding off to two decimal places 15.4452 rounding off to three decimal places 5. Discuss cases such as 0.304 is equal 0.30: if we round off to two decimal

places. 0.495 equals 0.50 if rounded off to two decimal places; 0.495 equals 0.5 if rounded off to one decimal place. Pupils answer Question 1 – 5 in Worksheet 4.5.

Activity 2

Approach Class

Aim Pupils will be able to competently round off decimals.

Steps 1. Show 1.5 on a card and state that the number has been rounded off to 1 decimal place. Discuss with pupils what the possible number is.

2. Expand this activity to numbers with more than one decimal places.

Teacher’s Guide Sheet 4.21 Concept: Division of decimals Learning Outcome: Solve problems involving division of decimals Note This lesson consists of one activity and the time needed is 40 minutes. Pupils answer Worksheet 4.21 after the explanation.

Activity 1

Approach Class

Aim Solve problems involving division of decimals.

Steps 1. Discuss a few examples of problem solving. Example: (a) A piece of 12 m rope is cut into 100 equal parts. What is the length

of each part, in metre? Each part = 12 m ÷ 100

= 100m 12

= 0.12 m (b) 5 litres of water is poured equally into 4 bottles. What is the amount

of water in each of the bottles? Amount of water in each of the bottles = 5 litres ÷ 4

= 4litres 5

= 1.25 litres (c) 2.25 kg flour is packed into a few packets. If the amount of flour in

each packet is 0.15 kg, how many packets of flour are packed? Number of packets = 2.25 kg ÷ 0.15 kg

= 0.152.25

= 15225

= 15

Page 103: Chapter 4 Decimals

103

(d) A piece of 3 m wood is cut into a few pieces of equal length which are 0.25 m each. Calculate the number of pieces of equal length wood that can be obtained.

Number of pieces = 3 m ÷ 0.25 m

= m 0.25m 3

= 25300

= 12

Teacher’s Guide Sheet 4.22 Concept: Division of decimals Learning Outcome: Perform computations involving combined operations of multiplication and division of decimals. Note: This lesson consists of two activities and the time needed is 40 minutes. Relation between the activities and questions in Worksheet 4.22: Activity 1: Question 1 Activity 2: Question 2

Activity 1

Approach Class

Aim Multiplication and division between a few decimals.

Steps 1. Discuss and give examples about the steps of multiplication and division between a few decimals.

Example: (a) 1.5 × 2.4 ÷ 0.9 = 3.6 ÷ 0.9

= 0.93.6

= 936

= 4 Emphasise that calculation must be done from left to right.

(b) 8.75 ÷ 2.5 × 0.31 = 2.58.75 × 0.31

= 2587.5 × 0.31

= 3.5 × 0.31 = 1.085

Page 106: Chapter 4 Decimals

106

(c) 12 ÷ 0.5 × 0.03 = 0.512 × 0.03

= 5120 × 0.03

= 24 × 0.03 = 0.72 2. Pupils answer Question 1 in Worksheet 4.22.

Activity 2

Approach Class

Aim Pupils will be able to competently solve problems involving multiplication and division of decimals.

Steps 1. Give a few examples of problems involving multiplication and division of decimals and discuss the answers.

Examples: (a) Pak Ali buys three container of vinegar. Each container contains

22.5 litres of vinegar. He then pours the vinegar into a few bottles with 0.75 litres each. How many bottles he has to prepare?

Solution: The number of bottles he needs = (22.5 × 3) ÷ 0.75 = 67.5 ÷ 0.75

= 0.7567.5

= 0.7567.50

= 756750

= 90 (b) A housewife bought 10 kg of rice with RM14.90. How much is the

price of 3.5 kg of that rice? Give the answer into the nearest sen. Solution: The price of 3.5 kg rice = RM14.90 ÷ 10 × 3.5 = RM1.49 × 3.5 = RM5.22 (to the nearest sen) 2. Pupils answer Question 2 in Worksheet 4.22.

Page 107: Chapter 4 Decimals

drink in litre. (b) Mr. Wong’s motorcycle can travel 135 km with 5.4 litres petrol. With 2.5 litres of

petrol, how far can he travel? (c) David saves RM0.35 per day for 6 days. Then he spends his savings on a few

cones of ice cream which cost RM0.65 each. How many cones of ice cream can David buy? How much is the balance?

Teacher’s Guide Sheet 4.23 Concept: Division of decimals Learning outcome: Perform computations involving combined operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of decimals, including the use of brackets. Note: This lesson consists of two activities and the time needed is 40 minutes. Relation between the activities and questions in Worksheet 4.23: Activity 1: Question 1 Activity 2: Question 2

Activity 1

Approach Class

Aim Calculation involving combined operations on decimals.

Steps 1. Give a few examples which involve a few operations. Examples: (a) 0.3 + 1.2 × 6 – 4.7 = 0.3 + 7.2 – 4.7 = 7.5 – 4.7 = 2.8 Emphasise that calculation that involves division or multiplication must

be performed first, and then only followed by addition or subtraction from left to right.

(b) 10 – 0.05 ÷ 0.2 + 1.47 = 9.75 + 1.47 = 11.22

Page 109: Chapter 4 Decimals

109

(c) 100 × 0.18 – 6.24 ÷ 0.4 = 18 – 15.6 = 2.4 (d) 0.28 + 3.1 × 5 – 4.67 ÷ 10 = 0.28 + 15.5 – 0.467 = 15.78 – 0.467 = 15.313 2. Pupils answer Question 1 in Worksheet 4.23.

Activity 2

Approach Class

Aim Solve problems involving combined operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of decimals, including the use of brackets.

Steps 1. Pose a few problems and discuss the solutions. Examples: (a) Ms. Lim bought 2 kg sugar which is RM1.25 per kilogram and 0.5 kg

coffee powder which is RM3.20 per kilogram from a grocery. If she paid with a RM5 note, how much is the balance?

Solution: Balance = RM 5 – 2 × RM 1.25 – 0.5 × RM 3.20 = RM 5 – RM 2.50 – RM 1.60 = RM 2.50 – RM 1.60 = RM 0.90 (b) A sheet of rectangular paper is measured 10 cm by 15.6 cm. If a

rectangle measured 8.5 cm by 7.2 cm is cut from this sheet of paper, calculate the area of the remained paper.

Solution: Area of the remained paper = (10 × 15.6 – 8.5 × 7.2) cm2 = (156 – 61.2) cm2 = 94.8 cm2 2. Pupils answer Question 2 in Worksheet 4.23.
