Ok! The first post in a longggggg time, and it shall be on algebra, what everyone seems to hate the most. Looking at the problem Paige had, don’t you have a sense of deja vu, like you have had the same problem/feeling before? But her brother had actually clarified her doubts with the algebra problem by relating it to a real-life problem. So actually, algebra is secretly embedded in our everyday lives; we use letters to represent the unknown values of things.
More Practice on Arithmetic Sums
Posted on: April 18, 2009
Well, I’m not going to grade this piece of work, so don’t have to give me the excuse that your dog ate your homework, but it will be good if you have a teeny weeny bit more of practice on arithmetic sums involving fractions and decimals. 😛
I have come up with 20 questions, and you should try practising without using the calculator, otherwise it will be meaningless to do this exercise. Remember to be PRUDENT in your calculations! GRACEFUL presentation is very important for such questions, especially when you can’t use your calculators. Remember, you reap what you sow. Try them and check your answers! 🙂
Arithmetic System – Arithmetic Laws
Posted on: April 2, 2009
Hahaha. A lot of the time when we do math we wish a miracle would happen, huh? 😛
Right. Now that we have learnt about the adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing of numbers, it’s time to look at some laws that govern the behaviour of arithmetic sums.
You definitely have done addition back in primary school.
So, let us now go through a few important arithmetic operations you have learnt.
Hopefully you have been working on more math 🙂
Today, I shall do a quick post on the Arithmetic System – the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division (also known as arithmetic operations) of numbers, in specific fractions and decimals first.
