Basic Arithmetic and Number Systems

Basic Arithmetic Operations

• Addition: Combining two or more numbers to find their sum. Example: 2 + 3 = 5
• Subtraction: Finding the difference between two numbers. Example: 5 - 2 = 3
• Multiplication: Repeated addition of a number. Example: 2 x 3 = 6 (2 added 3 times)
• Division: Splitting a number into equal parts. Example: 6 ÷ 2 = 3 (6 split into 2 equal groups)

Order of Operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS)

• Parentheses/Brackets: Operations inside parentheses are performed first.
• Exponents/Orders: Calculations with exponents are done next.
• Multiplication and Division (from left to right): Performed from left to right in the expression.
• Addition and Subtraction (from left to right): Performed from left to right in the expression.

Number Systems

• Natural Numbers: Counting numbers (1, 2, 3,...).
• Whole Numbers: Natural numbers plus zero (0, 1, 2, 3,...).
• Integers: Whole numbers and their opposites (-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3,...).
• Rational Numbers: Numbers that can be expressed as a fraction p/q, where p and q are integers, and q is not zero. Examples: 1/2, 3/4, -2/5.
• Irrational Numbers: Numbers that cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. Examples: π (pi), √2.
• Real Numbers: The set of all rational and irrational numbers.

Fractions

• Numerator: The top number of a fraction, representing the parts.
• Denominator: The bottom number of a fraction, representing the whole.
• Equivalent Fractions: Fractions that represent the same value.
• Simplifying Fractions: Reducing a fraction to its lowest terms.
• Adding/Subtracting Fractions: Need a common denominator.
• Multiplying Fractions: Multiply the numerators and denominators.
• Dividing Fractions: Multiply by the reciprocal of the divisor.

Decimals

• Place Value: Understanding the value of digits based on their position.
• Converting Between Fractions and Decimals.

Percentages

• Representing a part of a whole as a fraction of 100.
• Calculating percentages.
• Converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages.

Exponents and Radicals

• Exponents: Repeated multiplication of a number. Example: 2³ = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8
• Roots: Finding a number that, when multiplied by itself a certain number of times, equals a given number. Example: √9 = 3
• Square Roots: Finding the number that when multiplied by itself equals a given number.
• Cube Roots: Finding the number that when multiplied by itself three times equals a given number.

Geometry

• Basic Shapes: Understanding two-dimensional shapes like squares, rectangles, triangles, circles, and three-dimensional shapes like cubes, spheres, and cones.
• Perimeter: The distance around the outside of a two-dimensional shape.
• Area: The space inside a two-dimensional shape.
• Volume: The space occupied by a three-dimensional object.

Algebra

• Variables: Symbols used to represent unknown values. Examples: x, y, z
• Equations: Statements of equality between two expressions. Examples: x + 2 = 5.
• Solving Equations: Finding the value of the variable that makes the equation true.

Data Analysis and Statistics

• Mean: Average of a set of numbers.
• Median: Middle value in a sorted set of numbers.
• Mode: Most frequent value in a set of numbers.
• Range: Difference between the largest and smallest values in a set.

Problem Solving

• Developing a strategy to approach a mathematical problem.
• Using different approaches to solve problems; logical deduction, guess and check, working backwards.

Measurement Units

• Length (meters, centimeters, inches, feet)
• Weight/Mass (grams, kilograms, pounds)
• Volume (liters, cubic centimeters)
• Time (seconds, minutes, hours)
• Temperature (degrees Celsius, degrees Fahrenheit)
