Multiply and Divide Whole Numbers explain what to do and how to do it

Multiplication is a simple way of adding
For example 6x8 is the same as 8+8+8+8+8+8

Any number multiplied by 1 is itself E.g 4x1 = 4

Multiplying by 2 is just doubling

Multiplying by 10 is adding a 0 to the original number

If it is a big number that you do not know how to multiply mentally split it up
E.g 17x13
Split 13 into 10 and 3
17x10= 170
17x3= 51
Then add these numbers
221

If you ever get stuck, use the long method, add them instead, you will get to the right answer but it will take longer

Dividing is not as simple
Like multiplication dividing by one will leave you with the same answer

Dividing by two means you half the number, which may give you a decimal

Bigger numbers are trickier, and you may be allowed to use a calculator for numbers
Below are a number of links, these websites will teach you how to improve your multiplication and division skills:

Multiplication:
It is like addition. For example, 1+1+1+1 is the same thing as 1 x 4, but multiplying is faster.

Division:
It is the opposite of multiplication. For example, 12/4=__. All you need to know is what times 4 equals 12, and the answer to that is 3. So the answer is 3.

The length of a rectangle is 3 cm less than twice the width. If the perimeter is 42 cm, what is the length of the rectangle?

larisa [96]

Answer:

The length is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

w+w+l+l= perimeter

if the length is 3m less than twice the width then let's do some math.

42 divided 2 =21. so the width and length of one side have to equal 21. For example, let's use 8 as the width. The length would be twice(16) minus three(13) 13 plus 8 is 21. WOW it equals half of it so no we know the length is 13 and the wdith is 8.

*50 POINTS -- FRESHMEN ~ ALGEBRA I *

aniked [119]

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know X= Numbers of Large boxes and Y= Numbers of Small boxes

And we know the large boxes weigh 75 pounds and the small boxes weigh 40 pounds

So I would have to say the the same except you have to flip the inequality sign like this:

75x + 40y

$\geqslant \\$

200

And if that doesnt somehow work and the question is wording it wrong then

My guess for why its wrong us because its not in slope intercept form Although you still can solve for either varible ( x or y) using standard form also.

So to get from standard form to Slope intercept form (y=mx+b) these are the steps:

Ax+by=C

75x + 40y ≤ 200

Turn it into a linear equation.

75x+ 40y =200

In order to go from one form to another, all you have to do is change the order of the given numbers. First you want to move the Ax to the opposite side of the equation, by either adding or subtracting it. At this point your equation will be set up By = -Ax + C. Then you want to divide the B from the By and the rest of the equation. Therefore you will have y = - Ax/B + C/B. This is the same thing as the slope-intercept form, just a few of the letters are different.

40y=-75x+200 first subtract 75x

y=−1.875×+5 then dived every varible (everything) by 40. and you have your Linear eqaution.

And your second question would be A. >The number of boxes must be a whole number. 

Because you cannot split boxes in half or in any quarter in a real life scenario.

Please help me with this!!

rewona [7]

Area = b * h
Area of orange = area of big square subtract by area of small square

Small square = b^2
Big square = a^2
(a^2 - b^2) = (a - b)( a + b)

Solution: (a - b) (a + b)

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

the answer is 9,900

Step-by-step explanation:

you multiply 20 times 45. 20 for the cost of adults and 45 for how many adults. and then you mulitpy 600 times 15 because children cost 15 dollars and their was 600 children. and then you add both up to get 9,900
