Direct and Inverse Proportions Class 8 Solutions - Important Points

  • Proportions: Proportions are represented by the symbol ∝. For example, if p is proportional to q, it's denoted as p ∝ q. If p is inversely proportional to q, it's represented as "p ∝ 1/q." In both cases, the value of 'p' changes with 'q,' or when 'q' changes, 'p' changes. The proportionality constant represents the relationship between these values, and it indicates that two ratios, such as p/q and r/s, are equivalent, i.e., p/q = r/s.

  • Direct Proportion or Variation: Two quantities, a and b, are in direct proportion if they change together in such a way that the ratio of their corresponding values remains constant. This is represented as a/b = k, where k is any positive number. For example, if the number of items bought increases, the total cost of purchase also increases.

  • Inverse Proportion: Two quantities, x and y, are in inverse proportion if an increase in x leads to a proportional decrease in y (and vice versa) in a way that the product of their corresponding values remains constant. This is represented as xy = k. For example, if the number of people increases, the time taken to finish food decreases, or if the speed increases, the time required to cover a given distance decreases.

Direct and Inverse Proportions Class 8 NCERT Solutions (Intext Questions and Exercise)

NCERT class 8 maths chapter 13 question answer - Topic 13.2 Direct Proportion

Question:1(i). Observe the following tables and find if x and y are directly proportional.

15151611151

Answer:

If we want to know that they are directly proportional, then we calculate \small \frac{x}{y} :

\small \frac{x}{y}=\frac{20}{40} = \frac{17}{34}=\frac{14}{28}=\frac{11}{22}=\frac{8}{16}=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2} .

Hence we can say that x and y are directly proportional as \small \frac{x}{y} cames out to be a constant equals \small \frac{1}{2} .

Question:1(ii). Observe the given table and find if x and y are directly proportional.

1244

Answer:

If x and y are directly proportional then \frac{x}{y} must be equal to a constant value let say some 'k'.

Hence we then calculating: \frac{x}{y}

\frac{6}{4}=\frac{3}{2} \frac{10}{8}=\frac{5}{4} \frac{14}{12}=\frac{7}{6} \frac{18}{16}=\frac{9}{8}

\frac{22}{20}=\frac{11}{10} \frac{26}{24}=\frac{13}{12} \frac{30}{28}=\frac{15}{14} ,

as you can see that all these values are not equal hence,

we can say that x and y are not directly proportional.

Question:1(iii) Observe the below table and find if x and y are directly proportional.

1212121

Answer:

Calculating \frac{x}{y} we get:

\frac{5}{15}=\frac{1}{3} \frac{8}{24}=\frac{1}{3} \frac{12}{36}=\frac{1}{3}

\frac{15}{60}=\frac{1}{4} \frac{18}{72}=\frac{1}{4}

\frac{20}{100}=\frac{1}{5}

So, clearly \frac{x}{y} equals to \frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{5} hence it is not equal to some constant value 'k'.

We can say that x and y are not directly proportional .

Question:2. Principal = Rs.1000, Rate = 8% per annum. Fill in the following table and find which type of interest (simple or compound) changes in direct proportion with time period.

454545

Answer:

Given that Principal (P) = 1000 and Rate (r) = 8% per annum(per year).

Calculating the Simple Interest:

The formula for the simple interest is = \frac{P\times r\times t}{100} .

So, for 1 year :

Simple Interest=\frac{P\times r\times t}{100} =\frac{1000\times 8\times 1}{100}=80 rupees .

for 2 years :

=\frac{1000\times 8\times 2}{100}=160 rupees .

similarly for 3 years:

=\frac{1000\times 8\times 3}{100}=240 rupees .

Calculating the Compound Interest :

The formula for the compound interest is

P(1+\frac{r}{100})^{t} - P .

So for 1 year :

Compound Interest=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^{t} - P=1000(1+\frac{8}{100})^{1} - 1000

=1000(1+\frac{8}{100})^{1} - 1000=80rupees .

for 2 years :

=1000(1+\frac{8}{100})^{2} - 1000=166.4rupees .

similarly for 3 years:

=1000(1+\frac{8}{100})^{3} - 1000=259.71rupees .

Hence we have

Time period
1 year
2 year
3 year
Simple Interest(in rupees)
80
160
240
Compound Interest(in rupees)
80
166.4
259.71




In case of simple interest

\frac{80}{1}=\frac{160}{2}=\frac{240}{3}=80 \ gives \ the \ same \ value \ 80.

Simple interest is directly proportional with time.

While in case of compound interest:

\frac{80}{1}\neq \frac{166.4}{2}\neq\frac{259.71}{3} does not give the same constant.

Compound interest is not directly proportional with time.

Class 8 direct and inverse proportions NCERT solutions - Exercise: 13.1

Question:1 Following are the car parking charges near a railway station upto
4 hours Rs. 60
8 hours Rs.100
12 hours Rs. 140
24 hours Rs.180
Check if the parking charges are in direct proportion to the parking time.

Answer:

We say that x and y are in direct proportion, if \frac{x}{y}=k or x = ky.

Hence in the given problem we have,

Charges for the parking :

y

x

4 hours

Rs. 60

8 hours

Rs. 100

12 hours

Rs. 140

24 hours

Rs. 180

considering x to be charged to be paid and y to be the parking time.

Then we calculate \frac{x}{y} ,

For:- 4 hours: \frac{60}{4}=\frac{15}{1} 8 hours : \frac{100}{8}=\frac{25}{2}

12 hours : \frac{140}{12}=\frac{35}{3} 24 hours: \frac{180}{24}=\frac{15}{2}

Clearly \frac{x}{y} is not equal to some constant 'k', then we can say that

Parking charges are not in direct proportion to parking time.

Question:2 A mixture of paint is prepared by mixing 1 part of red pigments with 8 parts of base. In the following table, find the parts of base that need to be added.

151651

Answer:

Suppose the parts of red pigment is x and parts of base, is ' y '.

As the requirement of the number of parts of base for 1 part of red pigment is 8,

and as the parts of red pigment is increases, parts of the base also increase in the same ratio. It is a case of direct proportion.

we can assume other parts of the base that will be required for red pigments as y1, y2, y3 and y4 for parts of pigment 4, 7, 12 and 20 respectively.

1643872202340 We make use of the relation of type \frac{1}{8}=\frac{4}{y1}

That gives for the (i) case y1\times 1=8\times 4 or y1=32 .

32 parts of the base will be required for the 4 parts of the red pigment.

(ii) If parts of red pigment used is 7 then parts of base used will be \frac{1}{8}=\frac{7}{y2}

that gives y2\times 1=8\times 7 or y2= 56 .

56 parts of the base will be required for the 7 parts of the red pigment.

(iii) for 12 parts of red pigment : \frac{1}{8}=\frac{12}{y3}

we have y3\times 1 = 8\times 12 or y3=96 .

so, 96 parts of the base will be required for the 12 parts of the red pigment.

(iv) for 20 parts of red pigment: \frac{1}{8}=\frac{20}{y4}

we have y4\times 1 = 8\times 20 or y4 = 160 .

Hence for the following parts of red pigment, parts of base are given :

Parts of red pigment

1

4

7

12

20

Parts of base

8

32

56

96

160

Question:3 In Question 2 above, if 1 part of a red pigment requires 75 mL of base, how much red pigment should we mix with 1800 mL of base?

Answer:

As we know that mL of red pigment is directly proportional to the mL of base.

We have to calculate for the mL of red pigment used when we mix 1800mL of base,

So, for 1 part of red pigment requires 75mL of base, then we

\frac{redpigment(mL)}{base(mL)}= \frac{1}{75} .

So for 1800mL of the base, mL of the red pigment should be mixed

\frac{redpigment(mL)}{1800mL}= \frac{1}{75} or redpigment(mL)=\frac{1800mL}{75}=24mL

Hence for the 1800mL of base, we will mix 24 parts of red pigment .

Question:4 A machine in a soft drink factory fills 840 bottles in six hours. How many bottles will it fill in five hours?

Answer:

Given that a machine is capable of filling 840 bottles in 6 hours. So, we can say that it is directly proportional to the time.

we can assume that bottles it will fill in five hours would be ' x '

So we got the relation; \frac{840}{6}=\frac{x}{5} ,

solving for x we will get 840\times 5 = 6\times x or x= \frac{840\times 5}{6}= 700 .

Machine will fill 700 bottles in 5 hours .

Question:5 A photograph of a bacteria enlarged 50,000 times attains a length of 5 cm as shown in the diagram. What is the actual length of the bacteria? If the photograph is enlarged 20,000 times only, what would be its enlarged length?

Screenshot%20(76)

Answer:

We can calculate it easily,

Given that for 50,000 times enlarged, the photograph of a bacteria attains a length of 5cm.

So, we have to calculate the actual length of the bacteria(assume it to be ' x 'cm) that is when the photograph is enlarged to 1 time

Knowing that the microscope's zoom has a direct relation with the length of bacteria observed So, we get the relation ;

\frac{50,000}{1}=\frac{5cm}{x}

Solving the equation for x we get;

x=\frac{5cm}{50,000}=1\times 10^{-4}cm

The actual length of the bacteria is 10^{-4}cm which is so small to be observed through naked eyes.

Now, calculating the length of bacteria when it the photograph is enlarged 20,000 times,

assume it as ' y '.

So, we get this relation

\frac{20,000}{50,000}=\frac{y}{5cm}

solving for y we get;

y=\frac{20,000\times 5cm}{50,000} = 2cm .

So, if the photograph is enlarged 20,000 times only then the enlarged length would be 2cm.

Question:6 In a model of a ship, the mast is 9 cm high, while the mast of the actual ship is 12 m high. If the length of the ship is 28 m, how long is the model ship?

15611511


Answer:

Given that the mast of the model ship is 9 m high, while the mast of the actual ship is 12 m.

If the length of the ship given is 28m then,

Length of the model ship can be obtained from the direct proportion relation of mast height and length of ship.

We obtained the relation:

\frac{height\ of\ mast(model)}{height\ of\ mast (actual)} = \frac{length\ of\ ship(model)}{length\ of\ ship(actual)}

So, by the relation we have;

Let us assume that the length of model ship is ' x '

\frac{9cm}{1200cm} = \frac{x}{2800cm} \because (1m = 100cm)

after solving this relation we get,

x=\frac{9cm\times 2800cm}{1200cm}= 21cm ,

Length of the model ship is 21cm.

Question:7 Suppose 2 kg of sugar contains 9\times 10^{6} crystals. How many sugar crystals are there in (i) 5 kg of sugar? (ii) 1.2 kg of sugar?

Answer:

Here given that 2 kg of sugar contains 9\times 10^6 crystals.

So, we have to find the number of crystals in 5 kg of sugar as well as in 1.2 kg of sugar:

As here we will assume that all crystals have the same dimensions i.e., length, breadth, and width. Then the weight of sugar follows the direct proportion with the number of crystals as increasing the number of crystals there will be an increase in the weight also.

(i) For 5 kg sugar:

let the number of crystals be 'x' then,

we have the relation:

\frac{5kg}{2kg}=\frac{x}{9\times 10^6} , calculating x from this relation,

x=\frac{5kg\times 9\times 10^6}{2kg}=22.5\times 10^6 .

Therefore 5 kg of sugar contains 22.5\times 10^6 sugar crystals.

(ii) For 1.2 kg sugar:

Let the number of cystals be 'y' then,

we have the relation:

\frac{1.2kg}{2kg}=\frac{y}{9\times 10^6} . calculating similarly for y we get

y=5.4\times 10^6 .

Therefore 1.2 kg of sugar contains 5.4\times 10^6 sugar crystals.

Question:8 Rashmi has a road map with a scale of 1 cm representing 18 km. She drives on a road for 72 km. What would be her distance covered in the map?

Answer:

Given that Rashmi has a road map with a scale of 1cm representing 18km.

So we have a direct relation of scale distance and distance driven in the road.

For 72 km she drove on a road, Distance covered in the map would be 'x' cm

\frac{1cm}{18km}=\frac{x}{72km} ,

x=\frac{72}{18}cm\ or \ x=4cm .

Hence, For 72km driven in the road, we have to move a distance of 4cm on the map.

Question:9 A 5 m 60 cm high vertical pole casts a shadow 3 m 20 cm long. Find at the same time

(i) the length of the shadow cast by another pole 10 m 50 cm high

(ii) the height of a pole which casts a shadow 5m long.

Answer:

Consider there is a direct proportion relation of pole height with pole shadow.

So we have 5m 60cm high verticle pole that casts a shadow of 3m 20cm long .

hence,

(i) for the length of the shadow cast by another pole of 10 m 50cm high would be ' x ' cm;

\frac{560cm}{320cm}=\frac{1050cm}{x}

finding x from the equation we get;

x=600cm .

Therefore for a 10m 50cm pole we would get a shadow of 600cm or 6m length.

(ii) The height of a pole which casts a shadow of 5m long let it be 'y'

similar relation holds here also, so we can apply it once more

\frac{560cm}{320cm}=\frac{y}{500cm} ,

we get y=875cm\ or\ 8m\ 75cm .

Thus, the height of a pole which casts a shadow of 5m long is 8m 75cm.

Question:10 A loaded truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes. If the speed remains the same, how far can it travel in 5 hours?

Answer:

If the speed of the truck remains the same, then we can say that the distance travelled by the truck is directly proportional to the time.

After taking 5 hours the truck will travel a distance of let say ' x ';

Hence we obtain the relation:

\frac{14km}{25minutes}=\frac{x}{5\times60minutes }

x=\frac{14km\times 5\times60minutes}{25minutes}=168km ;

thus the truck would travel a distance of 168km in 5 hours.

Question:4 If a box of sweets is divided among 24 children, they will get 5 sweets each. How many would each get, if the number of the children is reduced by 4 ?

Answer:

Given that the box of sweets is divided among 24 children, getting 5 sweets each.

If the number of children is reduced by 4 then the number of children now is 24-4=20 .

As here if the number of children increases then the number of sweets they will get decreases hence we can say that there exists an inverse relationship between them.

Hence,

if we assume:

Number of children before (x1) = 24

Number of sweets each would get before (y1) = 5

and number of children after reduction (x2) = 20

and the number of sweets each would get after reduction is y2

Then the relation holds;

x1\times y1=x2\times y2

or 24\times 5=20\times y2 or y2= 6 .

Hence each child will get 6 number of sweets .

Question:5 A farmer has enough food to feed 20 animals in his cattle for 6 days. How long would the food last if there were 10 more animals in his cattle?

Answer:

The farmer has 20 animals to feed for 6 days and after that farmer added 10 more animals to feed that counts to ( 20+10 = 30 ). So, assume that food will now long last to ' x ' days.

As the number of animals increases the required food increases but the day up to which the food will long last decreases.

Hence there exist an inverse proportion between the number of days and the number of animals.

So, we can write the relation as:

20\times 6 = 30\times x or x= 4 days.

The food will last for about 4 days if 30 animals are there.

Question:6 A contractor estimates that 3 persons could rewire Jasminder’s house in 4 days. If, he uses 4 persons instead of three, how long should they take to complete the job?

Answer:

Here the situation is given that a contractor estimates that 3 persons could rewire Jasminder's house in 4 days.

Now, as the number of person increases the time they take to complete the job will decrease .

Hence there is an inverse relationship among the number of persons and the time they took.

Jasminer now uses 4 persons instead of 3, then we can assume the time 4 persons will take be ' x '

So, we can write the relation as:

3\times 4days = 4\times xdays . or x= 3 days .

Thus, the 4 persons complete the job in 3 days.

Question:7 A batch of bottles were packed in 25 boxes with 12 bottles in each box. If the same batch is packed using 20 bottles in each box, how many boxes would be filled? 1643872547472Answer:

We can easily calculate the required number of boxes to be filled, let us assume it to be 'x'

Given that a batch of bottles were packed in 25 boxes with 12 bottles in each box, Hence the total number of bottles will be = 25\times 12 = 300 .

So, as they produced the same number of bottles every batch and as the number of boxes increases, the bottles in each box decrease.

Hence there holds an inverse relation here,

25\times 12 = 20\times x or x=15 boxes.

If the batch is packed using 20 bottles in each box then 15 boxes would be filled.

Question:8 A factory requires 42 machines to produce a given number of articles in 63 days. How many machines would be required to produce the same number of articles in 54 days?

Answer:

Given that a factory requires 42 machines to produce a given number of articles in 63 days .

Then we know that as the number of machines increases the time taken to produce a given number of articles decreases. Hence there holds an inverse relation here,

And let the number of machines required to produce the same number of articles in 54 days be 'x'.

Then the relation;

42\times 63days = x\times 54days or x = 49 .

Hence 49 machines would be required to produce the articles in 54 days.

Question:9 A car takes 2 hours to reach a destination by travelling at the speed of 60 \; km/h . How long will it take when the car travels at the speed of 80 \; km/h ?

Answer:

Given that a car has a speed of 60 km/h which is travelling to a destination and takes 2 hours to complete it.

Speed and time are inversely related to each other.

Assume the time it would take when travelling at 80km/h be 'x'

Therefore we can write the equation when the car travels at the speed of 80 km/h as:

2hours\times 60km/h = x\times 80km/h

or x= 1.5 hours or 1 hour\ and\ 30 minutes.


Question:10(i) Two persons could fit new windows in a house in 3 days.

One of the persons fell ill before the work started. How long would the job take now?

Answer:

Here, given that 2 persons could fit new windows in a house in 3 days.

(i) 1 person has fallen ill so, now the number of persons remaining is only one. Assume that the only person which is working takes the time of 'x' days.

hence we could write the inverse relation as;

2persons\times 3 days = 1 person\times x days

or x= 6days .

One person will take 6 days to complete that window job.

Question:10(ii) Two persons could fit new windows in a house in 3 days.

How many persons would be needed to fit the windows in one day?

Answer:

(ii) So, now we are calculating the number of persons that would be needed to fit the windows in one day. Let it be 'y'.

So from previous part (i) we have the relation; 2 persons\times 3 days = y\ persons\times 1 day .

or y = 6\ persons .

hence the required number of persons would be 6.

Question:11. A school has 8 periods a day each of 45 minutes duration. How long would each period be, if the school has 9 periods a day, assuming the number of school hours to be the same?

Answer:

Given :

A school has 8 periods a day each of 45 minutes duration.

So, if the school hours of school is fixed then there exists an inverse relationship between each period duration and the number of periods.

We can take the time of each period to be 't' if the school has 9 periods a day.

Hence we can write the relation as;

8\times 45minutes = 9\times t\ minutes or t = 40 minutes .

The time of each period would be 40 minutes when 9 periods are there in one day.

Direct and inverse proportions class 8 NCERT solutions - Topics

  • Direct Proportion
  • Inverse Proportion

What is a Direct Proportion?

Two quantities 'a' and 'b' are said to be in direct proportion if the increase (decrease) in 'a' results in the increase (decrease) in 'b' in such a manner that the ratio of their corresponding values remains constant. That is if a/b= k

What is Inverse Proportional?

Two values are Inversely proportional it means decreases in one value results in a gradual increase in other value. Example- If the distance is fixed, speed and time are inversely proportional to each other.

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Speed \propto \frac{Distance}{Time} ( If Distance is fixed)
