Multiply and Divide Whole Numbers explain what to do and how to do it
rodikova [14]
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:

Basile [38]

(a)

Q1, the first quartile, 25th percentile, is greater than or equal to 1/4 of the points.  It's in the first bar so we can estimate Q1=5.   In reality the bar includes values from 0 to 9 or 10  (not clear which) and has around 37% of the points so we might estimate Q1 a bit higher as it's 2/3 of the points, say Q1=7.

The median is bigger than half the points.  First bar is 37%, next is 22%, so its about halfway in the second bar, median=15

Third bar is 11%, so 70% so far.  Four bar is 5%, so we're at the right end of the fourth bar for Q3, the third quartile, 75th percentile, say Q3=40

b

When the data is heavily skewed left like it is here, the median tends to be lower than the mean.  The 5% of the data from 80 to 120 averages around 100 so adds 5 to the mean, and 8% of the data from the 60 to 80 adds another 5.6, 15% of the data from 40 to 60 adds about 7.5, plus the rest, so the mean is gonna be way bigger than the median of around 15.

6 1/42 + 4 5/6= simplest form + show work.
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

1. 10 6/7      2. 8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 6 1/42 + 4 5/6

  • First, let's combine the whole numbers.  6 + 4 = 10
  • Now we are left with 1/42 + 5/6.
  • To add or subtract, the dominators need to be the same. We need to find the least common multiple which here is 42.

1/42 + 5/6(7)

1/42 + 35/42

= 36/42

= 6/7

  • All we have to do is combine both numbers.

10 6/7

2. 13/15 - 1/3(5)

13/15 - 5/15

8/15
