Study Notes
Whole Numbers
- A set of numbers that includes all positive integers, including 0
- Example: 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
Operations with Whole Numbers
- Addition: combining two or more whole numbers to get a total or a sum
- Subtraction: finding the difference between two whole numbers
- Multiplication: repeating a whole number a certain number of times to get a product
- Division: sharing a whole number into equal parts or groups
Properties of Operations
-
Commutative Property: the order of numbers does not change the result
- Example: 2 + 3 = 3 + 2
-
Associative Property: the order in which numbers are grouped does not change the result
- Example: (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4)
-
Distributive Property: multiplying a number by a sum is the same as multiplying by each addend separately
- Example: 2 × (3 + 4) = 2 × 3 + 2 × 4
Place Value
- Ones Place: the rightmost digit in a number, representing individual units
- Tens Place: the digit to the left of the ones place, representing groups of 10
- Hundreds Place: the digit to the left of the tens place, representing groups of 100
- Thousands Place: the digit to the left of the hundreds place, representing groups of 1000
Rounding Numbers
- Rounding Down: rounding a number to the nearest whole number by dropping the decimal part
- Rounding Up: rounding a number to the nearest whole number by adding 1 to the whole number part if the decimal part is 0.5 or greater
