Study Notes
Multiplication and Division
- Multiplication is repeated addition
- Division is the opposite of multiplication, where we break apart or separate
- The three main parts of a division problem are:
- Dividend: the number being divided
- Divisor: the number by which we are dividing
- Quotient: the result of the division
Properties of Multiplication and Division
- Division is the reverse of multiplication
- Dividing by one equals itself
- When dividing by ten, move the decimal point one place to the left
- When dividing by 100, move the decimal point two places to the left
Estimating Quotients
- Use compatible numbers to estimate quotients
- Examples: 21 ÷ 5 ≈ 20 ÷ 5 = 4
Whole Numbers and Factors
- Whole numbers are counting numbers plus 0
- Factors are numbers that multiply together to get another number
- To find factors, use the multiplication table or divide the number systematically starting with 1
Factors and Common Factors
- Factors are numbers that multiply together to make a new number
- To find common factors, factor each number and compare them
- If they share any numbers, then they have common factors
Division in Math
- Division is the process of breaking up a number into equal groups
- Involves the word divide, meaning to break into groups of equal size
- Fact families are useful when dividing
- Example: 4 × 5 = 20, 5 × 4 = 20, 20 ÷ 5 = 4, and 20 ÷ 4 = 5
Long Division
- Steps for long division:
- Divide the digit of the dividend by the divisor
- Multiply the result with the divisor
- Subtract the result from the dividend being divided
- Bring the next digit of the dividend down to continue dividing
- The remainder is what is left over after the last subtraction
Mean (Average)
- The mean is the average of a group of numbers
- Calculated by adding all numbers and dividing by how many numbers there are
- Has many real-world applications
