Numbers Numeration Review
  • The Math 8 Final Exam will test, among other
    things, how well you can do algebra, geometry,
    proportions percents, number sense patterns
    and graphing.

Algebra
  • The algebra questions you see on your final will
    fall (for the most part) under six
    classifications.

Factors Multiples
Integers
Fractions
Numeration
Exponents
Miscellaneous

Numbers
  • This section deals with numbers and numeration.
    You will do a question or two on each slide. If
    you get it right, just go on to the next slide.
    If you get it wrong, click the arrow at the
    bottom of the page to complete a tutorial on that
    kind of equation. Be absolutely positive that
    you write your work on scrap paper and you will
    have to hand it in for credit. Click the arrow

Integers!!!
Absolutely, positively everything you need to
know!
24
Adding Integers
  • There is one question you need to ask yourself
    when adding integers Are the signs the same?

Are the signs the same?
No
Yes
Subtract. Keep Sign of bigger .
Add. Keep sign.
25
Adding Integers Same Sign
  • Remember Add and keep the same sign!
  • 3 (5)
  • -3 (-5)
  • 7 4
  • -7 -4
  • -3 (-100)
  • -2 -2
  • -12 (-3)

Adding Integers Different Signs
  • If the signs are different, subtract and keep the
    sign of the bigger number.
  • 5 (-3)
  • 5 (-4)
  • 5 -5
  • 5 (-6)
  • -3 4

Subtracting Integers
  • If you let it, subtracting integers can get very
    confusing. If you are having trouble, lets try
    a new way and hope we dont get confused. DONT
    SUBTRACT!!!! Thats right lets add instead
    after all, you already know how to add!
  • The hardest part of integers is when all of the
    different rules start confusing us. We already
    know the rules for adding, so lets just add.
    The only thing we have to remember is that the
    sign in front tells us whether the number we are
    adding is positive or negative.
  • Heres what I mean 4 2 can also mean (4)
    plus (-2). So just read it that way. 4 (-2)
    2. Lets try another
  • 5 7 should be read as 5 -7. And we
    already know that is 2.

The Last Detail of Subtraction
  • In case you had not noticed, the last set of
    problems lacked the type of question that looked
    like 5 (-3). Lets just write this as 5 -
    (-3). In order to do this type, we need to
    remember that when you negate or minus ( - ) a
    negative, you make a positive. So 5 (-3) is 5
    3.

What Do We Know So Far?
add
  • When you add and the signs are the same, you
    ______ and keep the ____________.
  • When you add and the signs are different, you
    _________ and keep the _____________________.
  • DONT Subtract!!!! Treat the problem like
    _________ and the sign in front tells you if it
    is ___________ or ___________. If you see two
    negatives in a row (like 5 (-2) ), change the
    - - to a ___.

Multiplication Division
  • There are several ways to explain multiplying and
    dividing with signed numbers, but lets try a
    less common method. Heres the deal just
    multiply (or divide) the numbers and only when
    you are doing so BY a negative do you change the
    sign. Its easy!
  • Question Thought Process Answer
  • -3 x 5 3 times 5 is 15 and keep the neg. -15
  • -3 x -5 -3 x 5 is -15, BUT -5 means change sign
    15
  • 8 x -4 8 x 4 32,BUT -4 means change sign -32
  • -5 x -9 -5 x 9 45, BUT -9 means change sign -45

In s 1, 3, 4, 6 and 7, you multiplied or divided
BY a negative, so the sign changed. In all of
the others, you multiplied or divided BY a
positive, so it stayed the same ? !

Order of Operations
Absolutely, positively everything you need to
know!
38
The Order of Operations
  • The order or operations tells us what to do and
    when to do it when trying to evaluate an
    expression. Some people remember PEMDAS and
    others PLEASE EXCUSE MY DEAR AUNT SALLY. Either
    way, it all means the order is
  • Parenthesis (aka Packages)
  • Exponents
  • Multiplication / Division (left to right, they
    are equal)
  • Add / Subtract (left to right, they are equal)

39
What Operation Do You Do First?
  • 9 2 9
  • 17 4 x 5
  • 10 (5 3)
  • 10 14 2
  • 83 5 x 100

exponent
40
Step by Step Order of Operations
  • Go slow and answer this question step by step.
    As you click on the mouse, each step will appear.
  • Evaluate 25 3 x 22

OK. First you have to do 22 4
So it becomes 25 3 x 4
Next you have to do 3 x 4 12
Finally, it is 25 - 12
13
41
Lets Do Another Step BY Step
  • Evaluate 5(7 3) 8 1

First things first do the package 7 3 4
So we have 5(4) 8 1
I sure hope you realize multiplication comes
next. 5 x 4 20
OK. Now 20 8 1
Dont get fooled!!! Addition and subtraction are
equal. 20 8 12
Finally, 12 1

10 4 (-5)(-2) 40 10 50
10 (-5)2 10 25 250
44
Summary
  • The Order of Operations is
  • Parenthesis (aka Packages)
  • Exponents
  • Multiplication / Division
  • Addition / Subtraction
  • DANGER!!! Be very careful with the last two
    steps. Multiplication and Division are equal to
    each other. If they are the only steps
    remaining, just go left to right.
  • The same holds true for addition and
    subtraction.

45
Scientific Notation
  • Scientific notation is most commonly used as a
    shortcut for expressing and working with large
    and small numbers. In general, the format for a
    number expressed in scientific notation is
  • What is wrong with each of these?
  • 235,000 235 x 103
  • 5,000,000 5 x 56

(Number between 1 10) X 10 places decimal moves
Numbers is not between 1 10
The base is not 10, it is 5
46
Express in Scientific Notation
  • 42,000,000,000
  • 705,000

4.2 x 1010 Some common mistakes are . 42 x
109 (42 is not between 1 10) .42 x 109 (.42 is
not between 1 10)
7.05 x 105 Some common mistakes are .. 705 x
103 (stopped moving the decimal as 0s
stopped) 70.5 x 104 (70.5 is not between 1 10)
47
Scientific Notation Done Right
  • Convert 52,000,000,000 to scientific
    notation.
  • Convert 0.00000073 to scientific notation.

10 places to move
We need to get the number into proper form. So
. In order to get 52,000,000,000 to proper form
I need to move the decimal (and count) until I
get 5.2. The answer is 5.2 x 1010
7 places to move
Now we need to move the decimal to the right
until we get a number between 1 10. Count the
places! The exponent is negative because the
number is small (0.0000) The answer is 7.3 x
10-7

Rational Irrational Numbers
  • Rational and irrational numbers are the two basic
    types of real numbers. Each has can be defined
    in terms of fractions and decimals.

50
Irrational Numbers
  • The two most famous irrational numbers are p and
    a square root that is not perfect, like .
    If a square root is perfect, like , it is
    rational.
  • Label each as rational or irrational. If
    rational, compute the root


irrational
irrational
rational, 10
51
Classifying Numbers Rational or Irrational
  • Classify each of the numbers below as rational or
    irrational. Give a reason why.
  • 1) 29/4 2) 7 3) 2.181818 ..

These numbers are all rational. The first and
second are fractions, so they are obviously
rational by definition. The third is rational
because it is a decimal that repeats. The two
main irrational numbers are p and any square root
you can not figure out.. Like the square root of
5. The square root of 9 is rational because it
is 3.
52
Evaluating Integral Exponents
  • An exponent means how many times you use the base
    as a factor. So, for instance, 53 means 5 x 5 x
    5 and this is equal to 125. The most common
    mistake kids make is to confuse an exponent with
    multiplying. 53 is NOT 15!
  • Fill in the missing part below
  • Exponent Form Factors Form Value
  • 72
  • 10 x 10 x 10

53
Other Exponents
  • There are two other exponent situations you need
    to be prepared for.. When the exponent is 0
    and when, for a base of 10, the exponent is
    negative.
  • Case 1) Anything to the zero power 1!
  • Case 2) The base 10 to a negative power
    0.something.
  • 1) 50 2) 70 3) 90
  • 4) 10-1 5) 10-2 6) 10 -3

The Perpetually Problematic Percents
  • Percents drive some kids NUTS! One big reason
    for that is that you dont solve all of the
    problems the same way. First the bad news Any
    student who just wants to be told what to do
    instead of having to think with percents is going
    to have a hard time. Now the good news Any
    student willing to remember and work with a
    couple of basic ideas can master percents. Key
    ideas
  • Percent means out of 100.
  • The percent is the part out of 100.
  • Fractions, decimals and percents are all the same
    thing (like hello, hola and bon jour).

55
Percent Means out of 100
  • Simply put, percent means out of 100. So if 55
    out of 100 dentists prefer Trident gum, 55
    prefer it.
  • If 99 out of 100 students think Math is the best
    subject, 99 think Math is the best subject.
  • But what percent think Math is the best subject
    if only 2 out of 5 think it is the best? Do you
    know what a lot of students write? 2!!!!! Can
    you believe that? The question said 2 out of 5
    not 2 out of 100! To find the percent we must
    find out how many out of 100.

56
Converting Between Decimals and Percents
  • Converting between decimals and percents is one
    of he easiest math skills. Remember, percent
    means out of a hundred. Also remember that two
    decimal places is the equivalent of 100.
  • to Decimal Decimal to
  • Move decimal 2 places left 2 places right

Percents are bigger so we move to the right
Examples 50 .50 (or just .5) .721
72.1 11 .11 (2 places only) .005 0.5 (2
places)
57
Converting to a Percent
  • There are two main ways to convert fractions like
    2 out of 5 (2/5) to a percent.

2/5 means 2 5 which is .4000. To convert to
a percent, move the decimal two places right or
40.
since 5x20 100, 2x2040 40/100 40
  • 2 ?
  • 5 100

Convert each to a percent 1) 7/10 2) 3 out of
25 3) 3/8
70
12
37.5
58
Convert Percent to a Fraction
  • To convert a percent to a fraction, just write it
    out of 100 and reduce if necessary.
  • 25 25 out of 100 25/100 reduced ¼. Now
    you try.

45
45 out of 100 45/100 reduce to 9/20
90
90 out of 100 90/100 reduce to 9/10
37
37 out of 100 37/100 this is reduced.
What if we get one like 37.5? Then we need to
do 37.5/100 but this looks funky. Convert to
375/1000 to get rid of the decimal (move
numerator denominator one place each. You try
31.7.
31.7 out of 100 317/1000

Converting to Fractions
  • We already discussed how, in order to go from a
    percent to a fraction, we should put it over
    or out of 100 and reduce. To go from a decimal
    to a fraction is just as easy. Just read it
    properly and reduce . Remember, one decimal
    place is tenths, two are hundredths, three
    thousandths and so on. For example
  • 0.5 read properly is 5 tenths 5/10 ½.
  • 0.34 read properly is 34 hundredths 34/100
    17/50
  • 1.233 read properly is 1 and 233 thousandths
  • 1 233/1000

Fractions, Decimals, Percents Summary
  • Besides remembering that fractions, decimals and
    percents are just different ways of saying the
    same thing, we need to remember how to convert
    amongst them.
  • Decimals and percents move the decimal ________
    places to the ________ for a percent and
    _________ for a decimal.
  • Decimals to fractions you just ______ properly
    and _______. Fractions to decimals you just
    ________.
  • Percents to fractions, just put it ______ 100.

The Percent Proportion
  • Most students use the percent proportion in
    percent problems, so we will might as well, too.
    The percent proportion is
  • Your job as a student is to determine what number
    goes in which place. Now, the 100 always stays
    where it is. The word is usually tells the part
    and of usually tells the whole. A lot of people
    think underlining can be a big help in these word
    problems. DONT try to solve the question right
    away try to find the parts.

Percent part (is) 100 Whole (of)
64
Solving in the Percent Proportion
  • Find the missing part of each equation. Remember
    identify the percent, the part (is) and the
    whole (of.) Finish by substituting the correct
    values.
  • 1) What is 18 of 50? 2) 20 is what percent of
    25?

part (is) 100 whole (of) n
20 100 25 25n 2000 n 80
part (is) 100 whole (of) 18
n 100 50 100n 900 n 9

Problem One
  • Jenny takes a science test that has 25 questions.
    She gets 21 of them right. What percent did
    Jenny get right?

First things first . Lets underline the
important stuff!
Two numbers are underlined, 21 and 25. Which one
represents the whole number of questions and
which one the part?
part Now the part 21 and whole
25, so 100 whole

Problem Two
  • Remember, find the important stuff and
    underline!!!!!
  • In order to pay her way through college, Tammy
    works and earns 800 a month. If 65 of this
    money goes to tuition, how much money does Tammy
    spend each month on tuition?

The whole amount Tammy earns is 800
part (is) 100 whole (of)
65 n 100 800
100 n 52,000 n 520

Factors and Multiples
  • For some reason, factors and multiples often give
    students a difficult time. Lets try to relate
    each concept to its name.
  • Multiples are linked to multiplying and
    (ordinarily) multiplying makes things bigger. So
    multiples are bigger!
  • Factors are smaller. One way to remember this is
    that many small factors go into a big decision
    . or remember that factoring is division so
    factors divide into and are going to be smaller.
