In order to order percents you have to put the highest number that is closest to 100%
Ex.
50% 75% 85%

ordering decimals

If a decimal has more zeros it means the smaller the fraction is so be smart if you has to pick with was bigger don't pick the one with eight zeros

Ex .

Equivalent Fractions

Did you know that equivalent fractions are almost like reduced fractions? They are! If you don't believe me, please look at the diagram below.

See the similarities? Four eighths and one half are equivalent fractions and four eighths also can be reduced to one half for the most proper answer.
If you have trouble reducing fractions, then keep reading this post.

All we have to do is divide. if you don't understand, look at the picture below.
See? If you still don't understand, ask someone who knows to help you. I'd love to help you if you need help or even Mr. Isfeld. But remember, don't just sit there and struggle. If you need help, ask someone who can help.

Thanks for reading my post. And remember to study for the test on Friday, finish all your unfinished pages in your number of the day booklet and homework booklet, and make at least 5 posts on this blog before Christmas break of you'll be missing the movie in the morning and dance in the afternoon on Wednesday.

Textbook Question #4 on page 222

Question:
Copy and complete the table. If the number in the left column is divisible by the number in the top row, put a . If it is not divisible, put an X.

Solution:
Lets start with 630. 630 is divisible by 2, 5 and 10 because 630 ends in 0. It's divisible by 3 and 9 because the sum of the number is 9. 9 is divisible by 3 and 9. It's divisible by 6 because it's divisible by both 2 and 3.

The next number is 5184.  It is divisible by 2 because it ends in 4, an even number. It is divisible by 3 and 9 because the sum of the number is 18. 18 is divisible by both 9 and 3. It is divisible by 4 because if you divide 5184 by 2 twice, you get a number with no remainder. It's divisible by 8 because if you divide 5184 by 2 thrice, you get a number with no remainder.

This number, 2035 is only divisible by 5 because 2035 ends in 5.

Finally, 810 is divisible by 2, 5 and 10 because 810 ends in 0. It's divisible by 9 and 3 because the sum of the number is 9, which can be divided evenly by 9 and 3. It is divisible by 6 because 810 is divisible by both 2 and 3.

What is a numerator and a denominator?

The numerator is the top number of the fraction. It tells how many parts of the whole we are dealing with.

The denominator is the bottom number of the fraction. The name gives you a clue on which number it is. DEnominator. DE usually means make lower, bottom.. The denominator tells how many parts of the whole is equally divided into.


Multiples and factors - The Difference.

Multiples and factors are very different. In fact, they are the opposite of each other.

Multiples are the product of any given number and natural number like 1, 2, 3. They are bigger than the given number you are finding multiples for. The only multiple that isn't bigger is the first multiple, the number itself.

e.g. 2. - 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, and so on..

While factors are numbers that can go into one another with no remainder. They are smaller than the given number you are finding factors for. The only factor that isn't smaller is the last factor, the number itself. The factors of 10 are, 1, 2, 5, 10. You can multiply those numbers to get 10.

e.g. 2 x 5 = 10. Thpse 2 numbers in the multiplication sentence are factors of ten.

See? They are very different.




Subtracting with unlike denominators

Subtracting unlike denominators is no different from adding unlike denominators.
You must find the least common multiple.

2/3 - 4/7 =

L.M.C. for 3 and 7

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21
7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49

2/3
3x7 = 21
2x7 = 14

14/21

4/7
7x3 = 21
4x3 = 12

12/21

14/21 - 12/21 = 2/21

That's how you subtract with unlike denominators!

How to add with Unlike Denominators.

This is how to add with unlike denominators.

The picture in the post may help you understand how to add with unlike denominators.

First, you must find the Lowest common multiple (LCM) of the denominators. The denominators are the bottom number of the fraction, which tells how many parts of the whole is equally divided into.

In this case, 12 is the lowest common factor of 3, and 4.

Once we have found the LCM, you have to find a way to get your current denominator to twelve. But always REMEMBER. What you do to the bottom, YOU HAVE TO DO TO THE TOP.

So, in order to get 3 to 12, you have to multiply it 4 times. So we end up with Four Twelfths.
Now onto two fourths, which you can also call one half.. In order to get 4 to 12, you have to multiply it by 4 to get to 12. So we end up with six twelfths.

Add all of them together. And you get Ten Twelfths. You don't have to add the denominator.

That is how you add unlike denominators.


Adding fractions with unlike denominators

Steps on how to do adding fractions with unlike denominators.

1) You have two fractions.

eg.































2) Now you find the multiples of the two denominators until you find a L.C.M. (lowest common multiple).


eg.


4- 4, 8, 12, 16, 20


6- 6, 12, 18, 24, 30


So the L.C.M. is 12.



3) Next you make an equivalent fraction.



How do you get from 4 to 12 and how to you get from 6 to 12?



eg.





























Always remember whatever you do to the bottom you must do to the top.

4) Now we have two fractions that have the same denominator now we can add them together.

eg.












Then you make it into it's simplest form but you can't make 5/12 simpler.


So this is how you add fractions with unlike denominators.

Adding with unlike denominators

To add unlike denominators, you must find the L.C.M. (least common multiple)

5/8 + 1/6 =

L.C.M. for 6 and 8
8, 16, 24, 32
6, 12, 18, 24

5/8
8x3 = 24
5x3 = 15 Whatever you do to the top, you must do to the bottom.

1/6
6x4 = 24
1x4 = 4

15/24 + 4/24 = 19/24

That's how you add with unlike denominators.

Subtracting with like denominators

Subtracting with like denominators is the similar to adding with like denominators.
Subtract the numerators only and keep the denominators the same.

Numerators- top number of a fraction
Denominators- bottom number of a fraction

2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4 Correct
2/4 - 1/4 = 1/0 Incorrect The answer is not even possible.

Try this, 3/4 - 1/4 =

Adding with like denominators

When adding like denominators, you must add only the numerators.

Numerators- top number of a fraction
Denominators- bottom number of a fraction

2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4 Correct

2/4 + 1/4 = 3/8 Incorrect

Try 5/12 + 1/12=

Adding with Unlike Denominators


1) Find the common denominator

LCM(lowest common Multiple) of 1/4 and 1/6 is 12
-Multiple: the product of any given number and natural number like 1,2,3
Multiples is just skip counting

eg: some multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18
Some multuples of 5 are 6, 12, 18 24
So the LCM(lowest common multiple) of 4 and 6 is 12

Divisibility Rules

Rule for 1- All whole numbers are divisible by 1

Rule for 2- All even numbers are divisible by 2 twice

Rule for 3- The sum of te digits is divisible by 3

Rule for 4- 4=2x2 all numbers divisible by 2

Rule for 5- All numbers endig in 0 or 5 eg: 5,10,15,20,25....

Rule for 6-If the number is divisible 2 and 3

Rule for 7- Use a calculator!

Rule for 8- 8=2x2x2 All numbers divisible by 2 thrice

Rule for 9- The sum of the digits is divisible by 9

Rule for 10- All numbers ending in 0 or 5 eg:10,20,30,40,50

Adding with Unlike Denominators.

To add with Unlike Denominators you must follow these steps.

1)Find the common denominator but it must be the LCM (Lowest Common Multiple).

A Multiple- Is the product of any given number and natural number like 1,2,3.
eg. Multiple of 3 are ; 3,6,9,12,15,18,21 etc.

Multiples of 2 are 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18 Multiple of 5 are 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40


You can't add that, so you have to find the common multiple .

Multiple of 4- 4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32,
Multiple of 6 - 6,12,18,24,30,36,42
12 is the common multiple between those numbers.



The next step is to put " 12"(in this case) The new denominator and whatever you multiply in the bottom, you must do in the top.








The last step is to add it all up.







Multiple -

The product of any given number and natural number like 1,2,3 ...
Eg. some multiple of 3 are: 3,6,9,12,15,18

Eg.a common Denominator for 1/4 and 1/6 is 12 because a common multiple of 4 and 6 is 12
1/4= /12
1/6= /12

Rule for number 2

All even numbers are divisible by 2.

Example: even numbers end in 0,2,4,6,8
Odd numbers end in 3,5,7,9

Numerators and Denominators

A numberator is the top number of a fraction
A denominator is the bottom number of a fraction and it tells how many equal parts are in a whole.

Example:

Adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators


eg.
1/4 + 1/6 or 3/5 -1/2

You must find a common denominator to make the bottom number the same.
Common Denominator- a common multiple of the denominators of the set of fractions.
eg.
a common denominator for 1/4 and 1/6 is 12 because a common multiple of 4 and 6 is 12.
Multiple- the product of any given number and natural number like 1,2,3.....
Eg.
some multiples of 3: 3,6,9,12,15,18












You must find the 1st 5 multiples of each number
To make a common denominator you must find L.C.M- lowest common multiple

4 and 6

6- 6,12,18,24,304- 4,8,12,16,20

the L.C.M is 12
Once you find a common denominator, you make an equivalent fraction

eg.












3/12 + 2/12= 5/12

Subtracting Fractions

- You Subtract the numerators (top numbers) and you put your answer over the same denominator(bottom number)

Simplest terms: half of 8 is 4 so...
4/8 is equal to 1/2

Prime Factors

What is a prime factor?
1) Prime factor is a number with only two factors. 1 and itself.
2) Prime factor goes into a number with no remainder or a decimal.

Try this!
1) Find all prime factors of 18.
Another way to find the prime factors of 18 or any other number is called a Factor Tree!


Some Math Definitions

Divisible-When a number can be divided by another number, with no remainder.

Example: 24 divided by 4= 6.

Quotient- It is the result or answer to a division question.

Example: 24 divided by 8 = 3.

Factor- It is a number that can go into another number with no remainder.

Example: The factors of 24 are; 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24.

Common Factor- A number that two or more numbers are divisible by.

Example: The common factors of 12 and 24 are 1,2,3,4,6, and 12.

Greatest Common Factor- The number with the greatest value that two or more numbers are divisible by.

Example: The greatest common factor of 12 and 24 is 12.

8) Subtract. Write your answer in lowest terms.

D.

























Always remember, when you are subtracting two fractions the numerator changes and the denominator always stays the same.


If you are still having trouble with subtracting fractions and making them into lowest terms then here is a link that might help you.

If this link still doesn't help you then here is a video that might be easier to understand.







Hope this helped you with subtracting fractions and making them into lowest terms!

Subtracting Fractions like denominators

Subtracting fractions with the same denominators is basically just subtracting the numerator. The denominator stays the same.

For example:


This is a very good video. It helps you understand to keep the denominator the same for addition and subtraction while you learn it in a fun way. Hope you enjoy it!

Divisibility Rules For 8

All numbers thats divisible by 2.

24 divided by 2 = 12

12 divided by 2 = 6

6 divided by 2 = 8

24 is divisible by 8.

The Answer For #13 on the Textbook Page #221

The question asks, the sum of two fractions is 1. If the difference(the answer to a subtraction question) between the two fractions is two eighths, what are the two fractions?

What it`s asking is, (fraction A) plus (fraction B) should equal 1, but (fraction A) subtract (fraction B) should equal to two eighths. If you still don`t understand, please look at the diagram.



So what you have to do first is, find all the possibilities that will equal eight eighths. Please look at the following diagram.


Now, you should make all the equations subtraction questions instead of addition. Once you do that, which subtraction equation equals two eighths?







So there is the solution to #13 on page 221.

Divisibility rule for 10

All numbers that end in 0 are divisible by 10.

eg: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90.

Write each addition statement shown by the diagrams. Then add. Write the answer in lowest terms.

What this is saying is to add both of the pictures up. But don't add the denominator.

Then you have to find a way to make the fraction into the lowest terms you can put it in to.

e.g. 2  in lowest terms is 1
......-- ............................--
......4 ............................2
Now I will answer the questions.
 
A) ..2...1....3
......-- + -- = --   Three-fourths in lowest terms is.. Three-fourths...
 ......4....4.. 4


B) ...5....1....6
.......-- + -- = --     Six-Eighths in lowest terms is.. Three-fourths...
.......8....8....8


C) ...4...3....7
..... -- + -- = --      Seven Tenths in lowest terms is..  Seven-Tenths...
......10..10..10

Divisibility rule for 9

The sum of the digits is divisible by 9
e.g - Random number: 1897236. Then you have to add them all up - 1+8+9+7+2+3+6 =36... If you don't if 36 is divisible by 9, then add 3 and 6... 3+6=9. 9 is divisible by 9, so 1897236 is divisible by 9.
Random number: 37836547. 3+7+8+3+6+5+4+7= 43, 4+3= 7. 7 is not divisible by 9, so 37836547 is not divisible by 9.

Divisibility Rule for 2

Rule for the number 2
All even numbers are divisible by 2

eg. 0,2,4,6,8

Divisibility Rules: #5

Divisibility Rule for 5 - the last digit of a whole number has to be either 0 or 5. (The quotient has to be a whole number).
eg. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, etc.

Rule for 6.

Divisibility Rule for #6
If the number is divisible by 2 AND 3 then it's divisible by 6. why? because 2 x 3 =6
EXAMPLE- 6396396
2 goes in because it ends with 6 an even number.
Now check if 3 goes in. add all the numbers up.
6+3+9+6+3+9+6 = 42 . 3 goes in 42 so it's divisible by 6.
If your not sure, take this extra step.
4+2 = 6 . 6 goes into 3. There for 6 goes in 6396396.
