Take apart the number to make a 10. Then subtract.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Licemer1 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

This is one of a variety of "subtraction solutions"--basically a different way to subtract by breaking numbers down into 10-digit chunks.  It's not especially helpful for small subtraction problems, but as math gets more complicated, this method will come in handy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's an example: Jim had a bag of 15 jelly beans.  He eats 8.  How many jelly beans does he have left?  <u>Take apart the number to make a 10. Then subtract.</u>

Here, you need to "take apart" the 8 to make your 15 jelly beans 10, then you subtract the remainder of 8 to get your solution.  In other words,

 --"take apart" 8 into 5 and 3 (because you're going to need a 5 to make 15 into 10).  15 minus 5 equals 10.  HOORAY!  You have your 10.  Now, subtract the remaining 3.  10 minus 3 equals 7.  Huzzah--your final answer!

On paper, the problem looks like this:

<u>15 - 8 (</u><u>5, 3</u><u>) = ?</u>

15 - 5 = 10

10 - 3 = 7

So...15 - 8 = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached graph is an example of the square root function scaled and translated.

_____

Is it possible for a number to be a rational number that is not an interger but is a whole number. Explain
mylen [45]

Whole numbers are a subset of integers, which in turn are a subset of rational numbers.

So, every whole number is an integer, and every integer is a rational number.

So, it is possible for a rational number not to be an integer. Think of any decimal number: 1.356 is a rational number, but it's not an integer.

On the other hand, if a number is not an integer, it can't be a whole number, because all whole numbers are integers.
