Module 1.1 Arithmetic


,--_ Fractions
Types of Fractions

1. Proper Fractions. Proper fractions may be defined as fractions less than 1.


For example:

1 1 2 11
etc
2' 3 ' 5 ' 17

2. Improper Fractions. These are fractions which are greater than 1.


For example:

7 5 17 8
etc
3'3'11'5
3. Mixed Numbers. These include whole numbers and vulgar fractions. For example:

1 _!_ 2~ 6_i_ 27 ~ etc


2 ' 5 ' 11 ' 7

4. For all fractions, the number above the bar is called the numerator and the number below
the bar is called the denominator.

30
5. Simplest Form. The simplest form of is _!_. Fractions can be expressed in simplest
60 2
form by dividing numerator and denominator by equal numbers until they will not divide
further. For example:

8 2
= in simplest form (after dividing numerator and
12 3
denominator by 4).

Working with Fractions

6. Cancelling. The process of dividing numerator and denominator by equal values is


called cancelling. For example:

27 9 3 1
= 27
= 9 = 3

club66pro.com question practice aid

7. Converting. To convert mixed numbers to improper fractions, multiply the whole


number by the denominator and add to the numerator. For example:

2~ = 13
5 5

To convert improper fractions to mixed numbers, divide the numerator by the


denominator to give a whole number - the remainder gives a new numerator. For
example:

25 = 6_!_
4 4

8. Cancelling. Cancelling improper fractions involves exactly the same process as


cancelling vulgar fractions. For example:

28 7 45 = 15 = 7~
= =7 and
6 2 2
4 1

9. Multiplication
(a) Express all mixed numbers as improper fractions

(b) Cancel vertically if possible

(c) Cancel across the multiplication sign if possible

(d) Multiply numerators together, multiply denominators together

(e) If the result is an improper fraction, convert to a mixed number

(f) Check that your answer is in the simplest form

Examples:

2 2 4 8
(1) - x4 = - X-=
9 9 1 9
3 1 1

(2) 14 X 2..!_ X i_ =%X7Xjl = 3 = 1..!_


5 3 14
?;' /1 ~ 2 2

10. Division
(a) Convert all mixed numbers to improper fractions
(b) Invert the fraction you are dividing by
(c) Proceed as for multiplication.

12. Addition
(a) Express all fractions as mixed numbers in lowest terms

(b) Add the whole numbers together

(c) To add the vulgar fractions, you must convert each fraction so that their
denominators are all the same. This is done by finding the lowest common
multiple (LCM) of the denominators.

Decimals
Working with Decimals
1. Decimals are a very important and particular set of fractions . They are fractions whose
denominators are powers of 10, i.e. 10, 100, 1000, 10000 etc (do not be concerned
about the meaning of 'powers of 10', you will deal with this later in the course). Decimals
are not written in the usual fraction form, but in shorthand using a decimal point.

Examples:

1 1 1
a) - = 0.1 b) = 0.01 c) = 0.001
10 100 1000

d) 52_= 5.7 e) 63_2_ = 63.07


10 100

r--.
2. If you have difficulty in relating decimals to fractions, the following table may help.

THOUSANDS HUNDREDS TENS UNITS TENTHS HUNDREDTHS THOUSANDTHS

1000 100 10 1 -
1 1 -1-
10 100 1000
5 3 4 6 7 9 2

The number in the table is 5346.792; it consists of 5 thousands, 3 hundreds, 4 tens, 6


units, 7 tenths, 9 hundredths and 2 thousandths .
.-
3. The number of digits after the decimal point is called decimal places.

Examples:

a) 27.6 has one decimal place

b) 27.16 has two decimal places

c) 27.026 has three decimal places

d) 101.2032 has four decimal places

4. In addition of decimals, particular care must be taken to ensure that decimal points are
in line.

Example: Evaluate 27.3 + 0.021 + 68.3 27.3


0.021
+ 68.3
95.621

Designed in association with the
club66pro.com question practice aid

5. Similarly, in subtraction, ensure that decimal points are in line.

Example: Evaluate 27.3 - 4.36 27.3 27.3 can also be


4.36 written as 27.30
22.94

6. When multiplying decimals, ignore the decimal point until the final answer is obtained,
then count the number of decimal places in both the numbers being multiplied. This is
the number of decimal places in the answer.

Example: Evaluate 27.3 x 9.31 Note: Total of 3 decimal places.

273
931
245 700
8 190
273
254163 Answer = 254.163 (3 dpl.)

Note: It does not matter which you multiply first (i.e. the 9, the 3 or the 1) providing '00' is
placed before the answer when multiplying out the 1OO's (in this case the 9) and '0' is
placed before the answer when multiplying out the 1O's (in this case the 3) So the above
calculation could have looked like this:

273
931
273
8 190
245 700
254 163 The answer is the same

7. In division, it is easier to divide by a whole number than by a decimal. To make the


divisor (the number you are dividing by) into a whole number, move the decimal point a
specific number of places to the right. You must then also move the decimal point in the
dividend (the number you are dividing into) to the right by the same number of decimal
places.

Example: Evaluate 24.024 4.62 We have moved the decimal


point 2 places in both the
2402.4 462 divisor and the dividend, but the
answer is unaltered
5.2
= 462)2402.4
2310
924
924
An approximate answer could be calculated as follows: 24.024 24 - 5
4.62 5

Rounding, Significant Figures, and Decimal Places


Rounding
Rounding is the process of reducing the number of significant digits in a number. The result of
rounding is a "shorter" number having fewer non-zero digits yet similar in magnitude. The result
is less precise but easier to use.

For example: 73 rounded to the nearest ten is 70, because 73 is closer to 70 than to 80.
Methods of Rounding

Common Method: This method is commonly used in mathematical applications, for example in
accounting. It is the one generally taught in elementary mathematics classes. This method is
also known as Symmetric Arithmetic Rounding or Round-Half-Up (Symmetric Implementation)

Decide which is the last digit to keep.


Increase it by 1 if the next digit is 5 or more (this is called rounding up)
Leave it the same if the next digit is 4 or less (this is called rounding down)

Examples:
3.044 rounded to hundredths is 3.04 (because the next digit, 4, is less than 5).
3.045 rounded to hundredths is 3.05 (because the next digit, 5, is 5 or more).
3.0447 rounded to hundredths is 3.04 (because the next digit, 4, is less than 5).

For negative numbers the absolute value is rounded.

Examples:
2.1349 rounded to hundredths is 2.13
2.1350 rounded to hundredths is 2.14

Round to Even Method: This method is also known as unbiased rounding, convergent
rounding, statistician's rounding or bankers' rounding. It is identical to the common method of
rounding except when the digit(s) following the rounding digit start with a five and have no non-
zero digits after it. The new algorithm is:

Decide which is the last digit to keep.


Increase it by 1 if the next digit is 6 or more, or a 5 followed by one or more non-zero
digits.
Leave it the same if the next digit is 4 or less
Otherwise, all that follows the last digit is a 5 and possibly trailing zeroes; then change
"the last digit to the nearest even digit. That is, increase the rounded digit if it is currently
odd; leave it if it is already even.

With all rounding schemes there are two possible outcomes: increasing the rounding digit by
one or leaving it alone. With traditional rounding, if the number has a value less than the half-
way mark between the possible outcomes, it is rounded down; if the number has a value exactly
half-way or greater than half-way between the possible outcomes, it is rounded up. The round-

club66pro.com question practice aid

to-even method is the same except that numbers exactly half-way between the possible
outcomes are sometimes rounded up - sometimes down.
Although it is customary to round the number 4 .5 up to 5, in fact 4.5 is no nearer to 5 than it is to
4 (it is 0 .5 away from both).

When dealing with large sets of scientific or statistical data, where trends are important,
traditional rounding on average biases the data upwards slightly. Over a large set of data, or
when many subsequent rounding operations are performed as in digital signal processing, the
round-to-even rule tends to reduce the total rounding error, with (on average) an equal portion
of numbers rounding up as rounding down. Th is generally reduces the upwards skewing of the
result.

Round-to-even is used rather than round-to-odd as the latter rule would prevent rounding to a
result of zero.

Examples:
3.016 rounded to hundredths is 3.02 (because the next digit (6) is 6 or more)
3.013 rounded to hundredths is 3.01 (because the next digit (3) is 4 or less)
3.015 rounded to hundredths is 3.02 (because the next digit is 5, and the hundredths
digit (1) is odd)
3.045 rounded to hundredths is 3.04 (because the next digit is 5, and the hundredths
digit (4) is even)
3 .04501 rounded to hundredths is 3.05 (because the next digit is 5, but it is followed by
non-zero digits)

Significant Figures
Rounding to n significant figures is a form of rounding. Significant figures (also called significant
digits) can also refer to a crude form of error representation based around significant figure
rounding.

Rounding to n significant figures is a more general-purpose technique than rounding to n


decimal places, since it handles numbers of different scales in a uniform way.

Rules of Significant Figures


All non-zero digits are significant. Example: '123.45' has five significant figures: 1 ,2,3,4
and 5.
Zeros appearing in between two non-zero digits are significant. Example: '1 01.12' has
five significant figures : 1 ,0, 1,1 ,2.
All zeros appearing to the right of an understood decimal point or non-zeros appearing to
the right of a decimal after the decimal point are significant. Example: '12.2300' has six
significant figures: 1 ,2,2,3,0 and 0. The number '0.001-22300' still only has six significant
figures (the zeros before the '1' are not significant). In addition, '12.00' has four significant
figures.
All zeros appearing in a number without a decimal point and to the right of the last non-
zero digit are not significant unless indicated by a bar. Example: '1300' has two
significant figures: 1 and 3. The zeros are not considered significant because they don't
have a bar. However, 1300.0 has five significant figures.

However, this last convention is not universally used; it is often necessary to determine from
context whether trailing zeros in a number without a decimal point are intended to be significant.
Digits may be important without being 'significant' in this usage. For instance, the zeros in '1300'
or '0.005' are not considered significant digits, but are still important as placeholders that
establish the number's magnitude. A number with all zero digits (e.g. '0.000') has no significant
digits, because the uncertainty is larger than the actual measurement.

r---- Examples:

Rounding to 2 significant figures:

12,300 becomes 12,000


13 stays as 13
0.00123 becomes 0.0012
0.1 becomes 0.1 0 (the trailing zero indicates that we are rounding to 2 significant
figures).
0.02084 becomes 0.021
0.0125 becomes 0.012 in unbiased rounding, while it is 0.013 in biased.

One issue with rounding to n significant figures is that the value of n is not always clear. This
occurs when the last significant figure is a zero to the left of the decimal point. For example, in
the final example above, when 19 800 is rounded to 20 000, it is not clear from the rounded
value what n was used - n could be anything from 1 to 5. The level of rounding can be specified
explicitly. The abbreviation s.f. is sometimes used, for example "20,000 to 2 s.f."

Scientific notation could be used to reduce the ambiguity, as in (2.0 x 104 ). As always, the best
approach is to state the uncertainty separately and explicitly, as in 20,000 1%, so that
significant-figures rules do not apply.

A less common method of presenting ambiguous significant figures is underlining the last
significant figure of a number, for example "2QOOO"

Decimal Places
The precision of a value describes the number of digits that are used to express that value. In
a scientific setting this would be the total number of digits (sometimes called the significant
digits) or, less commonly, the number of fractional digits or places (the number of digits
following the point). This second definition is useful in financial and engineering applications
where the number of digits in the fractional part has particular importance.
In both cases, the term precision can be used to describe the position at which an inexact result
will be rounded. For example, in floating-point arithmetic, a result is rounded to a given or fixed
precision, which is the length of the resulting significand. In financial calculations, a number is
often rounded to a given number of places (for example, to two places after the point for many
world currencies).

As an illustration, the decimal quantity 12.345 can be expressed with various numbers of
significant digits or decimal places. If insufficient precision is available then the number is
rounded in some manner to fit the available precision. The following table shows the results for

various total precisions and decimal places, with the results rounded to nearest where ties
round up or to an even digit (the most common rounding modes).

Note that it is often not appropriate to display a figure with more digits than that which can be
measured. For instance, if a device measures to the nearest gram and gives a reading of ------.
12.345 kg, it would create false precision if you were to express this measurement as
12.34500 kg.

Mean, Median, Mode and Range


Definitions
The Mean, Median and Mode of a set of numbers are three types of "average" of the set.
However, the "Mean" is the term most commonly taken as the average.

Mean: The sum of a set of data divided by the


number of data

Median: The middle value or the mean of the


middle two values, when the data is
arranged in numerical order.

Mode: The value (number) that appears the most.


It is possible to have more than one mode,
and it is possible to have no mode.

Calculating Mean
To find the mean, you need to add up all the data, and then divide this total by the number of
values in the data.

Example 1: Find the Mean of 2, 2, 3, 5, 5, 7, 8

Adding the numbers up gives: 2 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 5 + 7 + 8 = 32


There are 7 values, so you divide the total by 7: 32 + 7 = 4.57 ...
So the mean is 4.57 (2 d.p.)

Example 2: Find the Mean of 2, 3, 3, 4, 6, 7

Adding the numbers up gives: 2+ 3+3+4+6+ 7 = 25


There are 6 values, so you divide the total by 6: 25 + 6 = 4.33 ...

So the mean is 4.33 (2 d.p.)

Calculating Median
To find the median , you need to put the values in order, then find the middle value. If there are
two values in the middle then you find the mean of these two values.

Example 1: Find the median of 2, 2, 3, 5, 5, 7, 8

The numbers in order: 2 , 2 , 3 , (5) , 5 , 7 , 8

The middle value is marked in brackets, and it is 5.

So the median is 5

Example 2: Find the median of 2, 3, 3, 4, 6, 7

The numbers in order: 2 , 3, (3 , 4), 6, 7

This time there are two values in the middle. They have been put in brackets. The median is
found by calculating the mean of these two values: (3 + 4) -;. 2 =3.5

So the median is 3.5

Calculating Mode
The mode is the value which appears the most often in the data. It is possible to have more
than one mode if there is more than one value which appears the most.

Example 1: Find the mode of 2, 2, 3, 5, 5, 7, 8

The data values: 2 ,2 ,3 ,5 ,5 ,7 ,8

The values which appear most often are 2 and 5. They both appear more time than any of the
other data values.

So the modes are 2 and 5

Example 2: Find the mode of 2, 3, 3, 4, 6, 7

The data values: 2 , 3 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 7

This time there is only one value which appears most often- the number 3. It appears more
times than any of the other data values.

So the mode is 3

Calculating Range
To find the range, you first need to find the lowest and highest values in the data. The range is
found by subtracting the lowest value from the highest value.

Example 1: Find the range of 2, 2, 3, 5, 5, 7, 8

The data values: 2 , 2 , 3 , 5 , 5 , 7 , 8

The lowest value is 2 and the highest value is 8. Subtracting the lowest from the highest gives:
8-2 =6
So the range is 6

Example 2: Find the range of 2, 3, 3, 4, 6, 7

The data values: 2 , 3 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 7

The lowest value is 2 and the highest value is 7. Subtracting the lowest from the highest
gives: ... ?- 2 = 5

~ So the range is 5

Degrees and Radians: Measuring Angles

We measure the size of an angle using degrees. We can also use radians to measure angles.

There are 2 radians in 360

The radius of a circle fits around the circumference 6.28 (or 2 ) times. 1 radian= 57.3 degrees.

Right Angles

A right angle is an angle measuring 90 degrees. Two lines or line segments that meet at a right
angle are said to be perpendicular. Note that any two right angles are supplementary angles (a
right angle is its own angle supplement).

Complementary Angles

Two angles are called complementary angles if the sum of their degree measurements equals
90 degrees. One of the complementary angles is said to be the complement of the other.

Example:

These two angles are complementary.

Triangles
Properties of shapes.
The 3 properties of shapes that we are going to look at are:

1. The number of sides


2. The interior angles (the angles inside).
3. The length of the sides.

These properties help use to remember which shapes are which and why they are so called (in
some cases).

Let's start with a shape that has 3 sides: TRIANGLES {tri- means 3).

Triangles ALWAYS have 3 sides.


The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Definitions
r ~ Here are the triangles you are expected to know about:

1. Equilateral Triangle
2. Isosceles Triangle
3. Right- Angled Triangle
4. Scalene Triangle

2. Congruent and Similar Triangles

Congruent and Similar are two words usually applied to triangles but can equally be applied to
other shapes.

Congruent triangles are two triangles which have equal angles and are the same size (i.e.
identical in every way) but may be oriented differently.

Similar triangles are two triangles which have the same angles but are of different size.

3. Equilateral Triangle

An equilateral triangle has got 3 sides of equal length and 3 angles that are equal.
Since ALL the angles in a triangle add up to 180Q then 180 divided by 3 must be 60Q.

The clue is in the name EQUILateral.

4. Isosceles Triangle

An Isosceles triangle has got two sides of equal length and 2 angles equal.

What is the value of the angle at the top of this Isosceles triangle?

The answer is 80 ~ All angles in a triangle add up to 1aoso 180- (50+ 50)= so

So an isosceles triangle has only got two sides of equal length and two angles the same.

The right angled triangle contains a right angle (an angle of 90)

The Shows a right ang)e

In a right angled triangle what must the other two angles add up to 90obecause all the angles in
a triangle add up to 180oand a Right Angled Triang le has got one angle of 90 ~

6. Scalene Triangle

A scalene triangle is the easiest of them all. The scalene triangle has got NO sides of equal
length and NO angles the same.

Other Regular Polygons

Regular polygons are any polygons that are equilateral and equiangular.

The area A of any regular polygon with perimeter P and apothem of measure a is equal to one-
half the product of the perimeter and the apothem.

This formula can be derived if you make 5 triangles inside the shape. The area of each triangle
is Y2 Sa ( 1/2 base x height) .

The total area is therefore 5 x Y2 Sa (in the case of the pentagon shown - the 5 only represent
the number of sides). But 5 x Sis the total perimeter of the shape, so:

Formula: A = !haP

Regular Pentagon
(shape could be any regular shape)

s
P ::;:: 5s 5 could be anything, depending on no. of sides

The angle shown is one equal portion of 360 degrees. In the case of the pentagon , it is 360/5
= 72. Hence the internal angle of any polygon can be found by calculating the supplement of
the external angle.

Surface Area and Volume of Common Solids


,-... Introduction

There are special formulas that deal with solids, but they only deal with right prisms. Right
prisms are prisms that have two special characteristics - all lateral edges are perpendicular to
the bases, and lateral faces are rectangular. The figure below depicts a right prism.

Common Solids

1. Right Prism Area

The lateral area L (area of the vertical sides only) of any right prism is equal to the perimeter of
,-... the base times the height of the prism (L =Ph).

The total area T of any right prism is equal to two times the area of the base plus the lateral
area.

Formula: T 28 + Ph =

B : ; ;: lw
P = 21+ 2w

(The bases formula could chan.ge depending on the base's shape.}


(The perimeter's formula oould change depending on the base.s shape.)

3. Pyramid Volume

A pyramid is a polyhedron with a single base and lateral faces that Q.re all triangular. All lateral
edges of a pyramid meet at a single point, or vertex.

The volume V of any pyramid with height h and a base with area 8 is equal to one-third the
product of the height and the area of the base. This applies even if the prism is not a 'right-
prism' i.e. the axis is not perpendicular to the base. The height however, is still measured
perpendicular to the base as shown below.

Formula: V = X Bh

B = wl
(Base's formula couLd change
depending on tis shap$ .)

A regular pyramid is a pyramid that has a base that is a regular polygon and with lateral faces
that are all congruent isosceles triangles.
