6 Basic Calculations Addition When you add two numbers together, the result is called the sum of those numbers. You Practice! Calculate the sums of these 6 addition problems Subtraction When you subtract one number from another, the result is called the difference between those numbers. You Practice! Calculate the differences of these 6 subtraction problems Property of Paychex, Inc.
7 Multiplication When you multiply two numbers together, the result is called the product of those numbers. Symbols used to represent multiplication include x,, and ( ). When multiplying multi-digit numbers, use these helpful hints: Set up the problem in vertical format, placing the number with the most digits on top. For Example: 3 x 213 would be 213 x 3 Start with the far right digit of the bottom number and multiply it by each of the top digits, right to left. For Example: 213 (3x3 is 9, 3x1 is 3, and 3x2 is 6) x When multiplying by a number with more than one digit, be sure to line up the resulting numbers for easy addition. Use zeros as place holders if needed. For Example: 125 x The red 0 is a place holder. You Practice! Calculate the products of these 6 multiplication problems = x 31 = 3. 5 (292) = x 259 x 254 x Property of Paychex, Inc.
8 Division When you divide one number by another, the result is called the quotient. Symbols used to represent division include and /. A division problem should always be put in the following format. Quotient Divisor Dividend Example You Practice! Calculate the quotients of these 6 division problems Property of Paychex, Inc.
9 Order of Operation In arithmetic and algebra, there is an order of operations or process used to evaluate equations involving more than one type of calculation (5-3) = 30 Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 First do operations that occur within grouping symbols. Ex. ( ) Then evaluate powers or exponents. An exponent means that number is multiplied by itself. Ex. 6 2 Then do multiplication and division from left to right. Finally, do additions and subtractions from left to right. Tips to Remember Another method to remember the order of operation is Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally. P = Parentheses E = Exponents M = Multiplication D = Division A = Addition S = Subtraction Step 2 Evaluate Powers x 6 = (5-3) = (2) = Step 1 (5-3) Step 3 12(2) Step = 60 9 Property of Paychex, Inc.

12 Rounding Each number represents a value. In the chart below a list of the place values is displayed. A rounded number tells you about how much hundreds tens ones hundredths tenths (1) When rounding, the problem will ask you to which place value to round. (2) Once you know that, look to the value directly to the right of the place value to which you are rounding. (3) If the digit is less than 5, round down. (4) If the digit is 5 or more, round up. For example, to round to the tens place, check the digit in the ones place and to round to the tenths place, check the digit in the hundredths place. It may be helpful to think in terms of a number line and look to see what is closer. For example: Problem: Round 64 to the nearest ten Ask yourself, Is 64 closer to 60 or 70? 64 is closer to 60, so 64 rounds down to Property of Paychex, Inc.
13 Guided Practice! You may be asked to round a number to the nearest ten, hundred, thousand, tenth, hundredth, thousandth, or whole number. Let s review each of these. Round to the nearest ten Look at the ones place. It s a 5, so you round up to Look at the ones place. It s a 1, so you round down to Look at the ones place. It s a 7, so you round up to 370. Round to the nearest hundred Look at the tens place. It s a 6, so you round up to Look at the tens place. It s a 2, so you round down to Look at the tens place. It s a 4, so you round down to 300. Round to the nearest whole number Look at the tenths place. It s a 5, so round up to Look at the tenths place. It s a 6, so round up to Look at the tenths place. It s a 3, so round down to 854. Round to the nearest tenth Look at the hundredths place. It s a 6, so round up to Look at the hundredths place. It s a 9, so round up to Look at the hundredths place. It s a 5, so round up to 3.5. Round to the nearest hundredth Look at the thousandths place. It s a 9, so round up to Look at the thousandths place. It s a 7, so round up to Look at the thousandths place. It s a 3, so round down to Round to the nearest thousandth Look at the ten thousandths place. It s an 8, so round up to Look at the ten thousandths place.

15 Patterns and Sequences Patterns and sequences are found in the world around us. In fact, math is built on the use of patterns and sequences. Tips to Remember Break down the pattern and compare numbers individually. Compare the relationship between the two numbers. The best way to see patterns is to practice identifying the patterns and sequences found in a series of numbers. Guided Practice! 1. One number in the following series is omitted. What should that number be? ? The difference between the two numbers is 2. The difference between the two numbers is 2. The difference between the two numbers is 2. The difference between the two numbers is 2. After comparing each number, you will notice that the pattern is each number is added by 2 to get the following number. Therefore, the number missing should be 9. (7 + 2 = 9) 2. One number in the following series is omitted. What should that number be? ? The difference between the two numbers is 3. The difference between The difference the two numbers is 3. between the two numbers is Property of Paychex, Inc.
16 After comparing each number, you will notice that the pattern is each number is subtracted by 3 to get the following number. Therefore, the missing number is 54. (57 3 = 54). 3. Look at the row of numbers below. What number should come next? ? The relationship between the two numbers is that 81 3 is 27. The relationship between the two numbers is that 27 3 is 9. The relationship between the two numbers is that 9 3 is 3. After comparing each number, you will notice that the pattern is each number is being divided by 3 to obtain the following number. Therefore, the number missing should be 1. (3 3 = 1). 4. One number in the following series is omitted. What should that number be? ? The difference Between the two numbers is 1. The difference between the two numbers is 2. The difference between the two numbers is 3. The difference between the two numbers is 4. The difference between the two numbers is 5. After comparing each number, you will notice the pattern is that with each number, the difference goes up by one. Therefore, the missing number is 26. ( = 26). 16 Property of Paychex, Inc.
17 You Practice! 1. One number in the following series is omitted. What should that number be? ? One number in the following series is omitted. What should that number be? ? Look at the row of numbers below. What number should come next? ? 4. One number in the following series is omitted. What should that number be? ? 17 Property of Paychex, Inc.
18 Fractions Fractions are numbers less than one. Numerator 4 5 Denominator The bottom number is called the denominator and tells into how many pieces the whole is divided. The top number is called the numerator and tells how many of those pieces you are considering. For the example above, think of a pizza divided into five equal parts. You have eaten 4/5 of the pieces. What fraction of the pizza is left? Property of Paychex, Inc.
19 Guided Practice! Determine what the fraction is for each of the examples below. Remember, the How Many Parts? number is the denominator or bottom number, and the Shaded Amount? number is the numerator or top number. One Whole Object How Many Parts? Shaded Amount? Fraction (Denominator) (Numerator) Note: 2 out of 5 pieces are shaded, so the fraction is 2/ (Denominator) (Numerator) Note: 3 out of 9 pieces are shaded, so the fraction is 3/9. 19 Property of Paychex, Inc.
20 You Practice! Determine what the fraction is for each of the examples below. Remember, the How Many Parts? number is the denominator or bottom number, and the Shaded Amount? number is the numerator or top number. The two of these make up the fraction. One Whole Object How Many Parts? Shaded Amount? Fraction Property of Paychex, Inc.
21 Fractions, continued... There are three types of fractions: proper fraction, improper fraction, and mixed number. A proper fraction is a fraction with a numerator smaller than its denominator. This is a number that is smaller than one. Examples are: , 8, 3, 40 An improper fraction is a fraction with a numerator larger than its denominator. This is a number that is actually greater than one. Examples are: , 9, 7, 2 A mixed number consists of a whole number followed by a proper fraction. Examples are: , 5 8, 3 7, An improper fraction can be changed to a mixed number by dividing the numerator by the denominator. The quotient becomes the whole number and the remainder becomes the new numerator. 8 For example, 5 is an improper fraction since the numerator (8) is larger than the denominator (5). By dividing 8 by 5, the quotient is 1 and the remainder is 3. Therefore: 8 = improper proper Guided Practice! Change the following improper fractions into mixed numbers Step 1: Divide 9 by 4. (9 4) Step 2: The quotient is 2. (9 4 = 2 with 1 left over.) Step 3: The remainder is 1. Step 4: The mixed number is Property of Paychex, Inc.
22 Step 1: Divide 16 by 3. (16 3) Step 2: The quotient is 5. (16 3 = 5 with 1 left over.) Step 3: The remainder is 1 Step 4: The mixed number is Step 1: Divide 29 by 5. (29 5) Step 2: The quotient is 5. (29 5 = 5 with 4 left over.) Step 3: The remainder is 4. Step 4: The mixed number is Step 1: Divide 53 by 9. (53 9) Step 2: The quotient is 5. (53 9 = 5 with 8 left over.) Step 3: The remainder is 8. Step 4: The mixed number is Step 1: Divide 77 by 12. (77 12) Step 2: The quotient is 6. (77 12 = 6 with 5 left over.) Step 3: The remainder is 5 Step 4: The mixed number is Property of Paychex, Inc.
23 Reducing Fractions To reduce a fraction to its lowest terms, divide by the factor(s) that the numerator and denominator have in common. Guided Practice! Step 1 Step 2 Step 1 (1) = = = = = 4 OR 36 9 = 4 A common factor for 9 and 36 is 3, so both are divided by 3 (step 1). However, the resulting fraction of 3/12 can be reduced further. 3/12 has the common factor of 3 again, so they are both divided by 3 a second time (step 2). The resulting fraction of ¼ is in lowest terms because it cannot be further reduced. OR A common factor for 9 and 36 is 9, so both are divided by 9. The resulting fraction is ¼ which is in lowest terms and cannot be further reduced. (2) = = 7 A common factor for 10 and 35 is 5, so both are divided by 5. The resulting fraction of 2/7 is in lowest terms because it cannot be further reduced. (3) = = 8 A common factor for 21 and 56 is 7, so both are divided by 7. The resulting fraction of 3/8 is in lowest terms because it cannot be further reduced. 23 Property of Paychex, Inc.
24 You Practice! Reduce the following fractions into lowest terms. Remember to find the common factor of both the numerator and denominator. (1.) 8 12 (2.) 3 6 (3.) 8 24 (4.) (5.) (6.) Property of Paychex, Inc.
25 Decimals Decimals are another form of fractions. Fractions are turned into decimals by dividing the numerator by the denominator. 5/8 is 5 8. The decimal equivalent for 5/8 is equal to.625. Each number in a decimal represents a value tenths hundredths thousandths hundred-thousandths ten-thousandths Tips to Remember Multiplication (x) Division ( ) Addition (+) Subtraction (-) Count the total number of spaces to the right of the decimal and ensure the same number of decimal spaces appears in the solution x 4.86 = When dividing by a decimal, move the decimal point of the divisor to the right until the number becomes a whole number. Then move the decimal of the dividend by the same number of places. Lastly, make sure the decimal point for the quotient aligns with the dividend.

Property of Paychex, Inc.
28 Highest and Lowest Value Discovering the value of a number takes into consideration if the number is positive or negative, a fraction, or a decimal. Positive numbers always hold a higher value than negative numbers. Whole numbers are greater than fractions or decimals. Decimals need to be reviewed carefully and place value needs to be taken into account when determining highest or lowest value tenths hundredths thousandths hundred-thousandths ten-thousandths Tip to Remember Compare each place value between the numbers when deciding which number is of higher or lower value. Guided Practice! Determine the number that is of highest value. (1.) tenths tenths Comparing the tenths place, 9 is larger than 4. So,.9216 is of higher value than Property of Paychex, Inc.

31 Ratios Ratios are similar to fractions. Ratios compare the relative size of two quantities. Ratios are written using either a semicolon or a fraction. For example the ratio of A to B is written either A:B or A B To know which number goes on top and which number goes on the bottom, you must look for clues in the sentence. Ratio = of to The ratio of Laura's age to Jim's age is Laura's age Jim's age Ratios typically describe parts of a whole. The whole is the entire set, such as the students in a classroom. The part is a certain section of the whole, such as the female students in a classroom. The ratio of male students to female students can be called a part-to-part ratio. It compares one part of the whole to another part of the whole. Example: There are 30 students in the classroom. There are 17 females and 13 males. The ratio of females to the whole room is 17:30. The ratio of males to the whole room is 13:30. The part-to-part ratio of females to males is 17:13. It's important to know what ratios describe. A ratio is a description of a relative size, not an actual size. A rate is special type of ratio. A rate is a quantity measured with respect to another measured quantity. Example: a rate of speed of 60 miles an hour. It measures miles (60) traveled per hour (1). 31 Property of Paychex, Inc.
32 Guided Practice! Determine the ratio for the following problems. Problem 1 The tennis team won 10 of its 16 matches. Find the ratio of wins to losses. Step 1 Step 2 Ratio = matches won = 10 matches = 5 matches lost 6 matches 3 Step 3 Step 1: The ratio is matches won to matches lost. Step 2: Fill in the numbers. Won = 10. Lost = 6. Step 3: 10/6 can be reduced to 5/3. Solution: The win ratio is 5, which is read as five to three and is written 5:3. Problem 2 You run a 10 kilometer race in 50 minutes. What is your average speed in kilometers per minute? Step 1 Rate = 10 km = 1 km = 0.2 km/min 50 min 5 min Step 2 Step 3 Step 1: The ratio is kilometers run per minute. Step 2: Fill in the numbers for this problem. 10 km. / 50 min. Step 3: 10/50 can be reduced to 1/5.

If you charge an equal amount for each lawn what is the amount you earn for 2 lawns? 33 Property of Paychex, Inc.
34 Percentages Percentages are another way to write a part of the whole. The % sign always represents a number out of % means 85/100. Percentages may also be converted to fractions or decimals. When converting to fractions, the percentage is always a number out of % mean 35/ % means 77/100. When converting decimals, drop the percentage sign and move the decimal point to the left two spaces. 85% =.85, 25% =.25 Guided Practice! Determine the percentage for the problems below. Problem 1 4% of 50 = Step 1: Change 4% to a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 spaces to the left.04 Step 2: Multiply.04 by 50. (.04 x 50) Step 3: The answer is 2. Step 4: 4% of 50 = 2.
