1.1. Areas of squares and Rectangles (6 period)
Area is the number of square units needed to cover a surface.
The area of a geometric figure is the number of square units needed to cover the surface within
the figure.
Area of a square
The area of square is the square of the length of one of its sides. That is A= s2
Definition:
A Square is a quadrilateral in which all four sides are equal.
A rectangle is a quadrilateral in which pairs of opposite sides are equal.
Area of a rectangle
The area of a rectangle is the product of its length(L) and width(w) that is A=L× w

1.3. Measuring volume by cubic centimeter meter and litter (5period)


We can refer to the idea of size to solid figures (three dimensional figures). For example, when
we compare the sizes of two boxes, we decide which box has more space inside it.
The size of a solid figure is called its volume.
Cube is the best unit to use in measuring volumes of solid figures
A solid figure is measured with a cubic unit (a solid figure in in the shape of a cube)
The standard unit of volume used in the metric system is the cubic meter.
The volume of cube=1unit×1unit×1unit
=1cubic unit
1unit
figure cube 1unit

Some measures volumes are
 cubic kilometer(km3 )
 cubic meter (m3 )
 cubic centimeter (c m 3)
 Cubic millimeter (m m3)
 Liter (L)

UNIT- 2
2. FRACTIONS (22 periods)
Unit objectives: After completing this unit students will be able to:
 Define fraction
 Identify types of fractions
 Perform four basic operation involving fraction
 Solve word problems involving fraction
2.1. Types OF Fractions (10 period)
a
Remember that a fraction is a number (usually written as , where a and b are whole numbers
b
and b is not 0) equal to the quotient of a and b or a divided by b.
a
In the fraction , the numerator is a’ and the denominator is b’
b
Fractions are used in everyday life.
For example: con you find what fraction of a week 4 days is:
4
4 days = week
7
Note:
Based on the numerator and denominator, you can classify a given fraction in to two types.
There are:
a) Proper fraction
b) Improper fraction
A proper fraction has a value less than one; its numerator is smaller than its denominator.
Example 1
1 3 2 4 17
, , , , are some examples of proper fractions.
2 5 13 7 23
.If the numerator of a fraction is greater than or equal to its denominator, and then the fraction
is an improper fraction.
Example2
3 3 12 5 7
, , , , are some examples of improper fractions.
2 1 7 3 2
If an improper fraction is expressed as a whole number and proper fraction, then it is called
Mixed number.

NOTE: Two fractions and , b, d≠ 0 are equivalent if and only if a × d =b× c
b d
2.3. Converting mixed numbers to improper fractions
Step 1. Multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number.
Step 2. Add the product from step 1 to the numerator of the old fraction.
Step 3. Place the total from step 2 over the denominator of the old fraction to get the improper
fraction.

3.1. Operations on Decimals(12period)
3.1.1 Addition and subtraction of decimals
Adding decimals is like adding whole numbers. Make sure that you line up the decimal points
before you add or subtract.
Adding Decimals steps
1. Line up the decimal’s points.
2. Write zeros so that both numbers have the same number of decimal places.
3. Add.
Example 1
Add 12.5 and 27.21
Solution:
First line up the decimal points you can write a zero so that (12.5=12.50) each added has the
number of decimal places.
12.50
+27.21
=39.71
Therefore 12.5+27.21=39.71
Example 2
A school paid birr 234.50 for new jackets and birr 175.35 for new shirts. What is the total cost?
Solution. 234.50
+175.35 Therefore, total cost=birr 409.85
=409.85
Example 3
Find the sum of 12.041, 26.706 and 321.24
Solution:
12.041
+26.706
321.240
=359.987
3.1.2 Subtraction of Decimals

2. Subtract 41.32 from 543.431
Solution: 543.431 (41.32=41.320)
-41.320
=502.111
3. The weights of one bag of rice and one bag of wheat are 52.05kg and 63.375kg respectively.
Which bag is heavier and by how much?
Solution
63.375>52.05
This implies that the bag containing wheat is heavier. And the difference is given as
63.375 -52.050 = 11.325
Thus, the bag containing wheat is heavier than the bag containing rice by 11.325kg.

4.4. Calculating the percentage (7 period)
Percentage is part of the base number (or part of the whole) which means one number gives
some part or some percent of another which denotes the whole. In short the part is some percent
of whole.
In general, problems involving percentage are solved in terms of the basic equation which is
given by the formula:
Percentage=percent(rate)xBase(whole)
Since a percent is a ratio of number of parts to 100, we can use this fact to rewrite the formula
above as follows:

Percentage= Rate x Whole


i.e. p= RXB but R=r% (whre r is the rate number)

Example
Calculate the percentage of each of the following.
a. 80% of Birr 260
b. 30% of Birr 540
c. 20% of 720 Litters
d.60% of 320 Litters

4.5. Application of percentage in calculation(5period)


The concept of percentage is important for its represents a convenient way of expressing a
certain types of information and it is used in solving many types of real life problems.
Example:
1.Factory has 1200 workers of which 720 are male and the rest are female. What percent of
workers are female?
Solution:
There are 1200 workers in a factory.
Thus, male workers + female workers=total workers
720 + female workers=1200
Female workers=1200-720
=480
p
r= X100%
B
480
= x 100 %
1200
=40%
Therefore, the female workers are 40% of the total workers.
2.A student scored 32 out of 50 in mathematics final exam. What is the student’s score in
percent?
Solution:
B=50 P=32 r=?
p
r= X100%
B
32
= x 100 %
50
=64%
Therefore, a student score 64 out of 100
4.5.1. Simple Interest
When money is lent, particularly for business, the borrower is expected to pay for the use of
money. Charge the amount money borrowed is called the principal and the charge made for the
use of the money is called interest.

August 24, 2023 24


MATHEMATICS FOR GRADE 5

The interest paid on the original principal only during the whole interest periods is called simple
interest. Simple interest can be expressed in terms of the basic interest formula as follows:
Interest=principal x Rate x Time
That is I=PRT where I=amount of interest
P =principle
R=rate per period
T=time (in years)

Example
If Birr 1200 is invested at 10% simple interest per annum, then what is the amount after 5 years?
Solution: p=Birr 1200
R=10%
T=5 years
I =PRT
=1200x10% x5
=600
Thus, Amount (A)= principal +Interest
= 1200+600
=Birr 1800

Definition:
Terms having all of their literal factors (or variables) the same are called like terms or similar
term. Terms which have only some or none of their literal factors (or variables) as common
factors are called unlike terms.
Like terms are terms whose variables and exponents of variables are exactly the same but
differ only in their numerical coefficients.
Terms that are not like terms are called un like terms.
In the product of a number and variable, the factor which is a numerical constant of a term is

3, addition of ax and bx is given by ax+bx =(a+b)x.
4, In case of unlike terms, it will remain same, cannot be simplified further.

Example
Add:
a. 8x, 3x, 5x b. 2ab, 4ab ,7ab
c, 4y, 7x, 2y, 3x d, 10 x 2 , 5 y 2 , 3 x 2 , 4 y 2
e, 6c,4d
solution:
a. 8x+3x+ 5x = (8+3+5)x =16x
b. 2ab+4ab +7ab= ( 2+ 4+7)ab
=13ab
c. 4y+7x+2y+3x = (4y+2y)+(7x+3x)…..like terms are separated.
=(4+2)y+(7+3)x
=6y+10x
d. 10 x +5 y +3 x + 4 y 2= ( 10 x 2+3 x 2 ¿+( 4 y 2 +5 y 2)
2 2 2

=(10+3 ¿ x 2)+(4 +5 ¿ y 2)
=13 x 2+ 9 y 2
e, 6c+4d=6c+4d it cannot add because unlike term

Rules for subtraction:


While you do the subtraction of algebraic expression,
1, subtract a term from a like term
2, find the difference between their numerical coefficients
3, symbolically, subtraction of bx from ax is given by ax-bx =(a-b)x
For example
7x-3x = (7-3)x=4x
4, you cannot simplify, while you subtract a term from its unlike term.
Example
Subtract
a. 4x from 9x b. 7y from 13y c. 10c from 17c
solution a, 9x-4x =(9-4)x=5x
b, 13y-7y= (13-7)y=6y
c, 17c-10c= (17-10)c=7c
Note:
To simplify an algebraic expression containing like and unlike terms, the following steps
are to be followed:
1, Group the like terms
2, Find the sum or difference of the coefficients of the like terms in each group. August 24, 2023 30

6.3. Properties of average (4 period)


1. Adding the same number on each item
If we add the same number on the given numbers, then the new average will be the old average
plus the added number.
This implies if the average of the numbers a, b, c and d is m after adding the same number k on
each numbers that is a+k, b+k ,c+k and d+k we will have new average is m+k
2. Subtracting the same number on each item
If we subtract the same number from the given numbers, then the new average will be the old
average minus the subtracted number.
This implies if the average of the numbers a, b, c and d is n after Subtracting the same number h
on each numbers that is a-h, b-h ,c-h and d-h we will have new average is n-h
Example1 Take 1,2,3, 4 and 5
1+ 2+ 3+4 +5 15
The average is = =3
5 5
Now add 4 on each number that is
1+4,2+4,3+4,4+4,5+4 =5,6,7,8,and9

Here you will study about construction of intersecting and parallel lines, bisecting a given line
segment, and construction of perpendicular line to a given line.
An important topic in geometry is construction. You will a ruler, a pair of compasses and a sharp
pencil. It is very important that you use a hard pencil, with a sharp point; otherwise, you will not
be able to be sure that lines cross accurately, and this can affect the lengths you measure.
8.1.1. constructions of intersecting and parallel lines
Remember that a plane is an infinite flat surface. A line is series of points that extends in two
opposite directions without end.
Lines in a plane tha6t never meet are called parallel lines.
____________________________ Parallel lines
___________________________
Lines that intersect to form a right angle (90 0) are called perpendicular lines.
Intersecting lines have exactly one common point.
A line segment is formed by two end points and all the points between them.

8.2. Angles and measurement of angles(3periods)


In this sub-unit you will learn about angles, classification of angles, measurement of angles and
bisecting angles.
The sides of a wedge look like two lines that meet in a point called the vertex.
When two segments or rays have a common end point, they form an angle. The point where they
meet is called the vertex of the angle.
The most common unit used in measuring angles is degree.
An angle is not measured by the length of its sides. You can use a protractor to measure angles.
Definition: An Acute angle is an angle whose measure is between0 0∧900 .
Example a. 47 0 b .78 0 c . 820 d . 210

Definition: A right angle is an angle whose measure exactly 90 0.


Definition: An obtuse angle is an angle whose measure is greater than 90 0.but less than 1800.
Example: a. 98 0 b. 1230 .c .1560. d.1790.
Definition: A straight angle is an angle whose measure is 1800 .
Note : An angle on a straight line is a straight angle.
Definition: A reflex angle is an angle whose measure is greater than 1800 but less than 3600 .
Example: a.1870 b . 2800 c.2400 d.3500
