Q

Greatest common divisor

A

The greatest common divisor (gcd) of two or more integers, when at least one of them is not zero, is the largest positive integer that divides the numbers without a remainder. For example, the GCD of 8 and 12 is 4.

Q

Multiple

A

A multiple is the product of any quantity and an integer. In other words, for the quantities a and b, we say that b is a multiple of a if b = na for some integer n, which is called the multiplier or coefficient. If a is not zero, this is equivalent to saying that b/a is an integer with no remainder.

If b is a multiple of a then b/a equals an integer with no remainder

18
Q

Greatest common factor

A

To find either the Least Common Multiple (LCM) or Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of two numbers, you always start out the same way: you find the prime factorizations of the two numbers. Then you put the factors into a nice neat grid of rows and columns, and compare and contrast and take what you need.

19
Q

Least common multiple

A

It is the smallest number that is a factor of both numbers

The least common multiple has to be divisible by both numbers with a resulting integer

A

It’s units digit is divisible by 2

21
Q

A number is divisible by 3 if

A

The sum of its digits is divisible by 3

22
Q

A number is evenly divisible by 4 if

A

The number made by the tens and units digit is divisible by 4

23
Q

A number is evenly divisible by 5 if

A

It’s units digit is a 0 or a 5

24
Q

A number is evenly divisible by 6 if

A

It’s divisible by both 2 and 3

25
A number is evenly divisible by 9 if
The sum of its digits is divisible by 9
26
A number is evenly divisible by 10 if
It's unit digit is a 0
27
Consecutive integers
Integers that follow consecutively
59
Comparing two positive fractions by
Cross multiplying the denominators into the opposite numerator and comparing. The aide with the larger number is greater If the numerators are the same, the smaller denominator is a larger number
60
Decimal Places
Each place in a decimal is worth ten times more than the place to its immediate right
61
Adding and subtracting decimals
Align the decimals and add
62
Multiplying decimals
Multiply as normal and then place decimal the number of digits equivalent to what is to the right of the decimal
63
Dividing decimals
Make divisor a whole number by moving the decimal to the right, then move the decimal of the dividend the same amount
64
Part =
Percent + Whole
65
Percent =
Part / Whole
66
Whole
Part / Percent
67
% increase =
New amount - old amount / old amount x 100
68
% decrease =
Original - new amount / original amount x 100
69
Original price =
New price / 100% - % markdown
70
Original price =
New price / 100% + % markup
71
Inverse proportions
Flip one of the ratios and solve for the missing variable
72
Averaging consecutive integers
The average of a group of consecutive or spaced integers is always at the exact middle number If the number of integers in the group is odd the average is the middle integer If the number of integers in the group is even the middle number is the average of the inner most integers
