Arithmetic uses real Multiplications and divisions must be done first. and non−negative numbers, which are also known as counting numbers, and Then additions and subtractions are done. consist of only four operations:  addition Example  subtraction 5 + 3  2 = 11  multiplication If you do the addition first and then multiply by 2, you get a wrong result.  division. While you have been using arithmetic since childhood, a review of its terms and operations will make learning the more difficult mathematical concepts much easier. DIGITS Numbers are represented by symbols which are called digits. There are nine digits which are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. We also use the symbol 0 (i.e. zero) where no digits exists. Digits and zero may be combined together to represent any number. TERMS A single number or a single variable or a combination of numbers, variables FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY! and operator symbols is called term. So a term is an mathematical construction of different values or variables HAM US/OF2 SCP May 12, 2023 01|Terms and Signs|L1 Page 2 Lufthansa Technical Training MATHEMATICS EASA PART-66 M01 ARITHMETIC Arithmetic Terms and Signs M1.1 THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY!

This This procedure is identical if numbers have some digits after the decimal point, operation is indicated by the plus (+) symbol. but it is still necessary that the decimal points are in the same column. When numbers, called summands, are combined by addition, the resulting total How many digits are after the Decimal point is irrelevant. is called the sum. Example When adding whole numbers whose total is more than nine, it is necessary to arrange the numbers in columns so that the last digit of each number is in the Tens Ones Tenth same column. The ones column contains the values zero through nine, the 7. 8 tens column contains multiples of ten, up to ninety, and the hundreds column + 2 4. 3 consists of multiples of one hundred. + 4 6. 2 Example 7 8. 3 Hundreds Tens Ones 7 8 + 2 4 3 + 4+1 6 +1 2 7 8 3 To add the sum of the above, first add the ones column: 8 and 3 and 2 makes 13. Place the 3 in the ones column of the answer and carry the 1 forward to the tens column. Adding this we add: 1 and 7 and 4 and 6 is 18. Place the 8 in the tens column of the answer and carry the 1 forward to the hundreds column which we now FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY! add. 1 and 2 and 4 is 7. Place the 7 in the hundreds column of the answer. We see that the answer (sum) to the addition is 783.

Consider 15 − 8 = 7 Subtraction is accomplished by taking the quantity of one number away from another number. The number which is being subtracted is known as the Method 1 subtrahend (smaller number), and the number from which the quantity is Take 8 from 15. taken is known as the minuend (larger number). We have 7 left. To find the difference of two numbers, arrange them in the same manner used This method is the most common method. for addition. With the minuend on top and the subtrahend on the bottom, align the vertical columns so the last digits are in the same column. Beginning at the Another way is also used to write the calculation, especially when the numbers right, subtract the subtrahend from the minuend. Repeat this for each column. are greater. 15 Example: – 8 Hundreds Tens Ones 7 4 (1)4 3 Method 2 – 2+1 6 2 Add various numbers to the 8. When the result is 15, you found the correct 1 8 1 number. If we add 8 to 7 then we obtain 15. 7 is therefore the difference between 15 Place 262 under 443. and 8. 2 from 3 leaves 1. This method is a kind of “try and error“. Write 1 in the ones column of the answer. DECIMAL NUMBERS 6 from 4 is clearly impossible, so the 4 is increased in value to 14 by taking 1 from the hundreds column leaving 3. For this procedure all decimal points need to be in the same column. 14 from 6 leaves 8. Write 8 in the tens column. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY! Finally, 3 from 2 in the hundreds columns leaves 1. To check a subtraction problem, you can add the difference to the subtrahend to find the minuend.

Like addition and subtraction, when multiplying large numbers it is important When a given number is added to itself a specified number of times, the that they have to be aligned vertically. process is called multiplication. When multiplying numbers greater than nine, multiply the multiplicand by each The sum of 4 + 4 + 4 = 12 is expressed by multiplication as digit in the multiplier. Once all multiplicands are used as a multiplier, the products of each multiplication operation are added to arrive at a total product. 4  3 = 12. The numbers 4 and 3 are called factors and the answer 12, represents the Example product. Multiplicand is 532 The number multiplied (4) is called the multiplicand, and the multiplier Multiplier is 24 represents the number of times the multiplicand is added to itself, in this case 3. Write: SIGN 532  24 Multiplication is typically indicated by the symbol  Calculation: In many countries the middle dot is used, which is also called interpunct. 532  24 An operation with the middle dot looks like this: 2  2 = 4 1064 (first partial product) In some cases (e.g. algebra and/or brackets), it is denoted by the lack of any + 2128 (second partial product) other operation sign. 12768 (product) Examples The product is 12,768. 5  3 = 15 5  3 = 15 5ab=5ab SEQUENCE When multiplying, the order in which numbers are multiplied does not change FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY! the product.

Division is a means of finding out how many times a number is 40 contained in another number. The number divided is called dividend, the 16 number you are dividing by is the divisor, and the result is the quotient. 16 REMAINDER 0 With some division problems, the quotient may include a remainder. A 1. 4 : 8 = Not possible remainder represents that portion of the dividend that cannot be divided by the 2. 41 : 8 = 5 Remainder 1 divisor. 3. 16 : 8 = 2 Remainder 0 SIGN 1.

Try to divide 41 by 8. This is 5 and the remainder is 1. FRACTIONS 3. Take the remainder 1 and the third digit, the 6. An other way of representing Divisions is the use of fractions Combine to 16. For example in the fraction 3 the 3 is the dividend, also called numerator, and Try to divide 16 by 8. This is 2 and the remainder is 0. 8 8 is divisor, also known as denominator. When the division is performed our 4. Take the first digit you got (in step 2) and the second digit you got (in step result is the quotient 0,375. 3). This is 52, and this is the result. LARGE QUANTITIES The quotient is 52. The process of dividing large quantities is performed by breaking the problem CHECK down into a series of operations, each resulting in a single digit quotient. To check a division problem for accuracy, multiply the quotient by the divisor This is best illustrated by an example. and then add the remainder (if any). FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY! Example If the operation is carried out properly, the result equals the dividend. Let us divide 416 by 8.

This is a force. The direction of this force is regarded toward the geometrical center of the earth. Physicists are very careful to distinguish between “mass & weight”. But in normal life, people do not distinguish. We mean mass but say weight. On the market, we buy an amount of potatoes with an exact weight. Due to this fact in the following we speak correctly about the mass. So we should say: ”we buy potatoes with an mass of one kilogram”. SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENT The system of measurement is based mainly on the International System of Units, usually abbreviated as SI. In french: Système international d’unités. UNIT The kilogram (kg) is the SI unit for mass. All SI units today are base on physical constants, such as the kilogram which refers to the Planck-constant. In 1889 the kilogram was defined by a platinum – iridium alloy cylinder. This original or prototype kilogram is stored in a safe near Paris, the French capital. It was used until 2019 for reference. Using the decimal system, based on number of 10 we are able to calculate bigger and smaller values. In accordance to the decimal system 1 kg consists FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY! of 1000 g (gram) and 1 g in turn consists of 1000 mg (milligram). Multiplying 1 kg by 1000 we reach 1 Mg (mega gram) usually called 1 metric ton. In daily life we use the units between gram and ton. In th US the Pound (lb) is used.

This may be the length of a street or the length of an object. UNIT The meter (m) is the SI unit for length. Since 1983 the scholars use natural constants to define some basic units. Therefore the meter is defined as the distance travelled by light in a vacuum in 1 of a second. 299, 792, 458 The speed of light is a natural constant and defined with 299,792,458 meter per second. Natural constants remain unchanged and can be reproduced all over the world, at least theoretically. In 1799 the original or prototype meter was defined as the 10millionths part of 1/4 of an earth meridian. A meridian quadrant is approximately the distance from the geographic pole to the equator. Also the prototype meter is made of a platinum – iridium alloy. It was used until 1960. Using the decimal system, based on number of 10 we are also able to calculate bigger and smaller values. In accordance to the decimal system 1 m consists of 10 dm or 100 cm or 1000 mm. Multiplying 1 m by 1000 we reach 1 km. In daily life we use the values between kilometer and millimeter. In th US the Metric system is not used, for length measurement foot (ft) is used.

This simplifies international communication and the description of standards and technical data. But there are also other unit systems. For example, quantities with units from the Middle Ages or the Anglo−American system of measurement, which is used in the USA, can be converted into metric units. Some units are often still used in the imperial system of measurement, e.g. speeds or heights in aviation. Here are some conversion factors that are used to express a quantity in a different unit than the original one. FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY!
