CONFIDENTIAL2 A whole number is DIVISIBLE by another number if the remainder is 0. A whole number is EVEN if it is divisible by 2. A whole number is ODD if it is not divisible by

CONFIDENTIAL3 DIVISIBILITY RULES A whole number is divisible by: 2if the ones digit is divisible by 2 3if the sum of the digits is divisible by 3 5if the ones digit is 0 or 5 10if the ones digit is 0

CONFIDENTIAL4 DIVISIBILITY RULES A whole number is divisible by: 4if the number formed by the last two digits is divisible by 4 6if the number is divisible by 2 AND 3 9if the sum of the digits is divisible by 9 The rules for 4, 6, and 9 are related to the rules for 2 and 3.

CONFIDENTIAL5 Remember that when two or more numbers are multiplied, each number is called a FACTOR of the product*. 1 x 6 = 6and2 x 3 = 6 1, 6, 2, and 3 are the factors of 6 * Remember that "product" is the answer to a multiplication problem.

CONFIDENTIAL6 COMPOSITE NUMBER - A number greater than 1 with more than two factors How to identify COMPOSITE NUMBERS and PRIME NUMBERS Can you think of a number that we would classify as COMPOSITE? What are its factors?

CONFIDENTIAL7 PRIME NUMBERS A Prime Number is a whole number that has exactly two factors and itself

CONFIDENTIAL8 A factor tree can be used to find the PRIME FACTORIZATION of a number. Write the number being factored at the top. Choose any pair of whole number factors. Continue to factor any number that is not prime. Except for the order, the prime factors are the same x x x x x x x x x x x x THE PRIME FACTORIZATION OF 54 IS 2 x 3 x 3 x 3

CONFIDENTIAL9 Numbers expressed using Exponents are called Powers WordsExpressionsValue to the fifth power 3 to the second power or 3 squared 10 to the third power or 10 cubed 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 3 x 3 10 x 10 x ,000

CONFIDENTIAL10 If we write 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 using an exponent, the base is 3 AND the exponent is = 3 4 = 81...

CONFIDENTIAL11 We can also refer to writing 4 5 as a PRODUCT OF THE SAME FACTOR (Remember that a "Product" is the answer to a multiplication problem.) The Base is 4. The Exponent is 5. So 4 is a Factor 5 times. 4 5 = 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 = 1,024

CONFIDENTIAL12 Exponents can be used to write the Prime Factorization of a number. Example: x x xx x x OR 2 3 x 3 (Start with the smallest prime factor)

CONFIDENTIAL13 A Numerical Expression is a combination of numbers and operations. Examples:4 + 3 * ÷ 2 (10 * 8)

CONFIDENTIAL14 Order of Operations 1. Parentheses 2. Exponents 3. Multiplication Division 4. Addition Subtraction Simplifying the expressions inside grouping symbols examples: (3+5) or (4*6) Find the value of all powers examples: 2 3 or 4 2 Perform multiplication or division in the order in which it occurs when reading the expression from left to right. Perform addition or subtraction in the order in which it occurs when reading the expression from left to right. P E M D A S

CONFIDENTIAL15 We can remember the Order of Operations as PEMDAS P E M D A S arentheses xponents ultiplication ivision ddition ubtraction "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally"

CONFIDENTIAL16 P E M D A S arentheses xponents ultiplicatio n ivision ddition ubtraction whichever comes first "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally" 20 ÷ * (9 - 6) = Do the operations in Parentheses first. 20 ÷ * 3 = * 3 = = 56 = There are no Exponents. Perform Multiplication or Division in the order in which they occur. The Division should be done first. Then perform the Multiplication. Finally perform the Addition.

CONFIDENTIAL n is an "ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION" Numbers Operations Variables Algebraic Expressions consist of Numbers, Operations, and Variables.

CONFIDENTIAL18 The VARIABLES in an expression can be replaced with any number. 3 + x If I substitute a 5 for the x I have or 8 This is how we Evaluate (or find the value of) the Expression

CONFIDENTIAL19 Let's Evaluate the Algebraic Expression 16 + b if b = 25 We replace b with the number b = = 41 The Value of the Algebraic Expression when b = 25 is 41

CONFIDENTIAL20 When solving math problems, it is often helpful to have an organized problem-solving plan. U P S nderstand lan olve

CONFIDENTIAL21 U To nderstand the problem, we need to -read the problem carefully -identify the facts that we know -identify what we need to know (WHAT IS THE QUESTION?) -determine if we have enough or too much information (Many students find it helpful to highlight or underline the important facts in the problem.)

CONFIDENTIAL22 Next, we must P lan -determine how the facts relate to each other -plan a strategy for solving the problem -estimate your answer Key words play an important role in determining which operations to use. Add plus sum total in all Subtract Multiply Divide minus difference less times product of quotient

CONFIDENTIAL23 And finally, we S olve the problem -use your plan to solve the problem -if your plan does not work, revise it or make a new plan -find the solution -make sure the answer makes sense and is close to your estimate Keep in mind that numbers do NOT always appear in a problem in the order in which they should be used to solve the problem.
