29
Closure Property
When we add or multiply any two or more integers, we obtain an integer.
30
Is the set of natural numbers closed for addition?
yes, pick any 2 numbers in the set and add them, you get a number in the set its closed for addition
31
Is the set A={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} closed for addition?
no, if you add 10+1 you would get 11 which is out of the set
32
Is the set of natural numbers N={1,2,3,4...} closed for multiplication?
Yes, if you multiply any 2 numbers you will get a number back in the set
33
Is the set A={0,1} closed for multiplication?
yes, 0x1=0 1x1=1 0x0=0
34
Is the set z = {...-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3..} closed for subtraction?
yes
35
Is the set of N={1,2,3,4..} closed for subtraction?
no
36
The set of integers Z={..-1,2,3,0,1,2,3..} is closed for
addition, multiplication, subtraction. If you add, subtract or multiply any 2 integers you will always get an integer
37
38
Is the set of N={1,2,3,4..} closed for division?
39
The set of integers in not closed for division
if you divide any 2 integers you will not always get an integer
40
Commutative property for addition
states that the order in which 2 or more numbers are added makes no difference. property of order
41
Associative property for addition
allows us to group numbers for addition
42
Does the commutative property hold for subtraction in the set N?
no, 3-2=1, 2-3= -1
42
Distributive property for multiplication over addition
multiplication is distributive over addition k(m+n) = km + kn
43
In the set of N={1,2,3,4..} is multiplication distributive over addition?
Yes 2(2+4) = 2(7) = 14 2(3) + 2(4) = 14
44
In the set of natural numbers is addition distributive over multiplication?
No 3 + (4x5) = 3+ 20 = 23 (3+4) x (3+5) = 56
45
Use the distributive property to simplify 9 x 71
9(70 +1) 9(70) + 9(1) 630 + 9 = 639
46
Any integer raised to the power of 0,
is 1

Given base 10, convert to base 2
Keep dividing by 2(or whatever base you are converting to) keep track of remainders. 8/2 = 4/2 = 2/2 = 1/2. R- 0, 0, 0, 1. Base 2 = 1000(subscript 2)

73
Number of divisors property
Every natural number greater than 1 has at least 2 divisors, itself and 1
74
Prime numbers
Any natural number, greater than 1 that has exactly 2 divisors (1 and itself)
75
Composite numbers
A natural number that has more than two divisors
76
Is 1 a prime number?
no
77
What is the smallest prime number?
2
78
How many numbers less than 10 are prime?
2,3,5,7
79
Is 113 prime? *try to divide the number by all the small primes up to its square root
square of 113 between 10 and 11 only have to check prime numbers up to 10 2 no 3 no 5 no 7 no is 114 prime? yes only has two divisors
80
Eratosthenes Method - finding how many numbers less that 100 are prime
Write down numbers 1-100 Cross out 1 since its not a prime number Draw a circle around 2 and cross out every multiple of 2 Repeat step 3 for the next prime # 3 Repeat for next prime which is 5 repeat with 7 since 7 is the largest prime number less than the square root of 100=10, we know the remaining numbers are prime
81
Fundamental theorem of arithmetic
Every natural number greater than 1 is either a prime or a product of primes and its prime factorization is unique
82
Canonical Representation
Representation of an number as a product of consecutive primes using exponential notation with the factors arranged in order of increasing magnitude
83
Least common multiple
of a set of numbers is the smallest number that each of the numbers divides into evenly
84
Procedure for finding LCM
write factorizations in canonical form select the representative of each factor with largest exponent Multiply the representatives to find LCM
85
Greatest common multiple
is the largest number that divides evenly into each of the numbers in the give set
86
Finding the GCF
Write the factorizations in canonical form. Select the representative of each factor with the smallest exponent. Multiply the representatives to find the LCM.
87
GCD
greatest common divisor
88
Using Euclidean algorithm to find GCD
Start by dividing small number into larger Keep dividing, keep track of remainders Stop when remainder is 0 The last divisor is the GCF
