Math and Arithmetic

Math is the study of abstractions. Math allows us to isolate one or a few features such as the number, shape or direction of some kind of object. Then we can study what can be learned about the behavior of those features while ignoring everything else about the object.

What are some websites that you can go to for math help?

There are plenty of websites but not all of them are children friendly or virus proof but the one that is fine is bitesize or revise wise and then you just add your keystage( ks1, ks2 or ks3)

When do you add exponents?

you add exponents in a case like 1 to the 5th (to the 5th is your exponent of 5)

So 1 to the 5th + 1 to the 9th. you would just add your exponents. so 9+1=10

so you answer would be 1 to the 10th.

this is only when you have 2 of the same base number, in this case, your base number is 1

Is 24 a multiple or factor of 4?

'24' is a multiple of '4' ( 4 x 6 = 24)

However, '4' is a factor of '24'.

What is 9 divided by 16 minus 9 divided by 20 equal?

This is subtraction of fractions.

Hence

9/16 - 9/20 =>

[9(20) - 9(16)] / (16 x 20)

[180 - 144] / 320

[36] /320

Cancel down by '4'

9/80 The answer ; this will not reduce any further.

1450 x 12?

It is 17400.

You seem to be unaware of the fact that you could have obtained the answer much more easily and quickly by using the calculator that comes as part of your computer.

What is the nearest 100 to 1350?

1400

1350 ? Look at the 'tens' number, '5' in this case. If '5' or greaterm then add '1' to the 'hundreds' number.

1349 is nearer 1300

but

1350 is nearer 1400

NB THis applies to any numbers. Given a million, you inspect the 'hundred thousand' number. or 'tens' inspect the 'units' number.

How many feet in 150 square yards?

I am assuming yo mean square feet.
There are 9 square feet in a square yard, 3 feet by 3 feet.
150 times 9= 1350 square feet

Is three sixths equivalent to one half?

YES!!!

3/6 = 1/2

NB THree '3' is a common factor of both '3' and '6' , so you cancel down*reduce) by dividing both numbers by '3'

NB You can do this proceedure with any fractions

e.g. 9 /27 = 1/3

16/20 = 4/5

et seq/.

What is a hepagon?

No such thing as a 'hepagon'. I think you mean 'HEPTAGON'. Note the spelling.

A heptagon is a seven(7) sided 2-dimensional figure.

From their Latin roots, the names of polygons are : -

3 ' Trigon (Triangle).

4 ' Tetragon ( Quadrilateral)

5 ' Pentagon

6 ' Hexagon

7' Heptagon ( as given)

8 ' Octagon

9 ' Nonagon

10 ' Decagon

100 ' Centagon

1000 ' Millagon.

'--gon' is also Latin , for '2 dimensional figure.

So learn some Latin. Science and Maths use a lot of words from these ancient languages.

The sum of 2 numbers is 34 Four times the smaller number is 4 less than the larger number What are the numbers?

The smaller number is x. The larger number is 4x + 4. Their sum is 34.

Therefore x + 4x + 4 = 34. 5x + 4 = 34. 5x = 30. x = 6.

The smaller number is 6.

The larger number is (4 x 6) + 4 = 28.

What is the nth term of 20 29 38 47?

We note that there are a difference of '9' between terms . Hence '9n'

Next find the constant 'c'

1st term ; 9(1) + c = 20 => c = 11

2 nd term ; 9(2) + c = 29 => c = 11

nth term is 9n + 11

e.g.

7th term is 9(7) + 11 = 63 + 11 = 74

Eight times what equals twenty four?

8 X x = 24

Divide both sides by '8'

x = 24/8 = 3

'3' is the answer!!!!!

Are 6 billion and 6000 million the same thing?

YES!!!

6 billion is 6,000,000,000 = 6.0 x 10^(9)

6000 million is 6,000,000,000 = 6.0 x 10^(9)

Which is larger 0.011 or 0.01?

To compare decimals, bring the decimals to the same number of decimal places, by inserting suffix 'zeroes'. Three decimal places in this case.

0.011 ^ 0.01

Hence

0.011 & 0.010

Drop the decimal point

0011 & 0010

Drop the prefix zeroes

11 & 10

I think you will agree that 11 is greater than 10 ( 11 > 10)

Hence it follows that

0.011 > 0,01

NB THis method is good for comparing all decimals to 'n' number of places.

Can a scalene triangle be equaiateral?

You spell ' equaiateral;, correct;y as 'equilateral'.

A SCALENE triangle cannot be EQUILATERAL, because for all scalene triangles , the length of the three sides are all different and the angles are all different values.

An EQUILATERAL triangles has its three sides of equal length , and its three angles all at 60 degrees.

How many 2 digit prime numbers have 4 as one of their digits?

There are four 2-digit prime numbers that have 4 as one of their digits: 41, 43, 47, and 49. However, 49 is not a prime number because it is divisible by 7. So, the correct answer is three 2-digit prime numbers with 4 as one of their digits.

What is 80 percent of 35?

Well, isn't that a happy little math question? To find 80 percent of 35, you simply multiply 35 by 0.80. So, 35 x 0.80 equals 28. So, 80 percent of 35 is 28. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, math can be a peaceful and rewarding experience.
