Study Notes
Multiple Choice Questions - Study Notes
-
Terminating Decimal Expansion: Certain fractions have decimal expansions that end. Numbers like 37/45, 21/25 , and 17/49 do not have terminating decimal expansions. 22/32 and 89/49 are examples of non-terminating decimal expansions.
-
HCF and LCM: The highest common factor (HCF) and lowest common multiple (LCM) of numbers are calculated to find relationships between them. For example: the HCF x LCM for 50 and 20 is 1000.
-
Euclid's Division Lemma: This principle states that given two positive integers 'a' and 'b', there exist unique integers 'q' and 'r' so that a=bq+r where 0 ≤ r less than b. The remainder must be 0 or a positive number smaller than 'b'.
-
Rational Number Decimal Expansion: Rational numbers have decimal expansions which either terminate (e.g., 22.5) like numbers in Q5, or repeat in a pattern. Fractions with denominators having only 2 and/or 5 as prime factors will terminate in their decimal representation, like 22.5 /32 or 11/22 .
-
Co-prime Numbers: Two numbers are co-prime (or relatively prime) if their greatest common divisor (GCD) or highest common factor (HCF) is 1. If p and q are co-prime, then HCF(p, q)=1.
-
Prime Numbers and LCM: If p and q are prime numbers, then the LCM(p, q) is pq.
-
HCF and LCM relationship: HCF(a, b) × LCM(a, b)=a ×b, for any two positive integers a, and b. For example, HCF(2520, 6600) = 40 and LCM(2520, 6600) = 252k. If one knows these values and the relationship for a and b , one can find k by multiplying the given values in this way.
-
Non-Terminating, Repeating Decimals: Not all rational numbers have terminating decimal expansions. If a fraction's denominator includes prime factors other than 2 and/or 5, its decimal expansion will repeat. For example, 35/14 which is 2.5 has a terminating decimal expansion. On the other hand, 7/12 has a non-terminating and repeating decimal.
-
Prime Factorization: Finding the prime factors of a number is important in calculating their HCF and LCM. For example, 5005 = 5 x 7 x 11 x 13 has 4 prime factors.
-
Odd/Even Integers: Integers can be expressed in specific forms using parameters, for example, every even integer is 2m. And an odd integer can be expressed as 2q+1.
-
Coprime Numbers and Squares: If two positive integers a and b are coprime, then a² and b² are also coprime (i.e., HCF(a², b²)=1).
-
Least Prime Factor: The least prime factor of a number is the smallest prime number that divides that number evenly.
-
Irrational Numbers: Irrational numbers have decimals that do not repeat and do not terminate. For example, √2, π and √5 are irrational numbers.
