Mental Maths (Without Calculators) - Chapter 1: Heart of Algebra
- Learning Objectives: Perform four operations with signed numbers, simplify numerical expressions of whole numbers (no more than three digits), and simplify such expressions including brackets.
- Four Operations (BODMAS): Key concept for order of operations involving whole numbers.
- Sample Question (25/5 + 3 x 7): Applying BODMAS, the order of calculations is division, multiplication, and lastly addition. Answer is 21.
Powers and Roots
- Find the square of whole numbers between 1 and 20: This involves squaring whole numbers from 1 to 20.
- Represent square root of a number by √: Introduce the square root symbol.
- Find square roots of whole square numbers: Identifying perfect squares between 1 and 400. This can be by inspection (directly recognizing) or by finding prime factors.
- Find the cube of whole numbers: Cubing numbers from 1 to 10.
- Find the cubic root: Determining the cube roots of whole numbers between 1 and 1000.
