Reading and Writing Whole


Numbers
We

read whole numbers in words, but we use the


digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 to write them.
We read the whole number fifty-one, but write it
51, which is called standard form.
Each of the digits in a whole number in standard
form has a place value.

1-3

Chapter 1 Slide 3

Reading and Writing Whole


Numbers
The

place value chart is shown below.

When

we write large numbers we insert commas


to separate the digits into groups of three, called
periods.

1-4

Chapter 1 Slide 4

Example
Identify the place value of the 8.
a. 508
b. 8,430,999
c. 6,800,000,002

Chapter 1 Slide 5

Reading and Writing Whole


Numbers
To Read a Whole Number
Working from left to right,
read the number in each period and then
name the period in place of the comma.

Example
How do you read the number 521,000,072?

The treasurer of a company write a check in the


amount of three hundred thousand, two hundred
eight. Using digits, how would she write this
number?
Chapter 1 Slide 9

Writing Whole Numbers in


Expanded Form
Expanded

form of a number can be written using the


number and its place value of its digits. The place
value chart is shown below.
5,293 = 5 thousands + 2 hundreds + 9 tens + 3 ones
Expanded form = 5000 + 200 + 90 + 3

Identities and Properties


The

Identity Property of Addition

The sum of a number and zero is the original number.


3+0=3
or
0+5=5
The

Commutative Property of Addition

Changing the order in which two numbers are added does


not affect their sum.
3+2=2+3
5 = 5

1-18

Chapter 1 Slide 18

Identities and Properties


The

Associative Property of Addition

When adding three numbers, regrouping addends gives


the same sum. Note that the parentheses tell us which
numbers to add first.
(4 + 7) + 2 = 4 + (7 + 2)
11 + 2 = 4 + 9
13 = 13

1-19

Chapter 1 Slide 19

Adding Whole Numbers


We

add whole numbers by arranging the numbers


vertically, keeping the digits with the same place
value in the same column. Then we add the digits
in each column.
When the sum of the digits in a column is greater
than 9, we must regroup and carry, because only
a single digit can occupy a single space.

Example

1-21

Chapter 1 Slide 21

Subtracting Whole Numbers


We

write the whole numbers underneath one


another, lined up on the right, so each column
contains digits with the same place value.
Keep the following properties of subtraction in
mind.

1-22

When we subtract a number from itself, the result


is 0: 6 6 = 0
When we subtract 0 from a number, the result is the
original number: 32 0 = 32

Estimating Sums and Differences


An

estimation can be used to check an answer and


see if your answer is close to the exact answer.

Example
1.

Compute the sum 8,935 + 478 + 2,825 . Check

Multiplication
Multiplication

is repeated addition.

crayons for your child and each package has 6
crayons.

The parts of a
product, that is
the 6 and 5, are
called factors.
Chapter 1 Slide 30

Identities and Properties


The

Identity Property of Multiplication

The product of any number and 1 is that number.


31=3
or
12 1 = 12
The

Multiplication Property of 0

The product of any number and 0 is 0.


30=0
or
12 0 = 0

1-31

Chapter 1 Slide 31

Identities and Properties

The Commutative Property of Multiplication


Changing the order in which two numbers are multiplied does not affect
their product.

32=2 3
6 = 6

The Associative Property of Multiplication


When multiplying three numbers, regrouping the factors gives the same
product.

(4 7) 2 = 4 (7 2)
28 2 = 4 14
56 = 56

Chapter 1 Slide 32

Multiplying Whole Numbers


To

multiply whole numbers with reasonable


speed, you must commit to memory the products
of all single-digit whole numbers.

Section 1.4
Dividing Whole Numbers

1-36

Chapter 1 Slide 36

The Meaning and Properties of


Division
In

a division problem, the number that is being


used to divide another number is called the
divisor. The number being divided is the dividend.
The result is the quotient.
We can also think of division as the opposite
(inverse) of multiplication.

Chapter 1 Slide 37

Example
Divide and check: 3024 6.
49, 021
. Then check your answer.

1-38

Chapter 1 Slide 38

Remainders
When a division problem results in a remainder as
well as a quotient, we use this relationship for
checking.
(Quotient Divisor) + Remainder = Dividend
We will often write the results of a division problem
as <Quotient> R <Remainder> , such as 25 R3.
1-39

Chapter 1 Slide 39

Example
1.

Find the quotient of 23,399 and 4. Then check.

Find the quotient and remainder of 12,861 and


63. Then check.
Divide and check: 9,000 30.
Chapter 1 Slide 40

Checking by Estimating
As for other operations, estimating is an important skill
for division. Checking a quotient by estimating is faster
than checking it by multiplication, although less exact.
And in some division problems, we only need an
approximate answer.
Example An office building has an area of 329,479 square
feet. If there are 9 floors in the building, estimate the
square footage of each floor.

Exponents
Writing an expression in exponential form provides a
shorthand method for representing repeated
multiplication of the same factor.
Definition
An exponent (or power) is a number that indicates
how many times another number (called the base) is
used as a factor.

of those numbers divided by however many numbers
are in the set.

Solving Word Problems


To Solve Word Problems
Read the problem carefully
Choose a strategy (such as drawing a picture, breaking up the
question, substituting simpler numbers, or making a table).
Decide which basic operation(s) are relevant and then translate
the words into mathematical symbols.
Perform the operations.
Check the solution to see if the answer is reasonable. If it is not,
start again by rereading the problem.

Drawing a Picture
Sketching even a rough representation of a problem, can
provide insight into its solution.
Example: At Greenfield High School, there are 292
freshmen, 213 sophomores, and 524 juniors. If there are
1,036 total students, how many seniors are there in the
school?

Breaking Up the Question


Another effective problem-solving strategy is to
break up the given question into a chain of
simpler questions.

1-55

Chapter 1 Slide 55

Example
On her way to work, Melinda must travel through 18
traffic lights. If she is stopped by 5, how many more
traffic lights did she get a green light than a red light?
How

many traffic lights were green?


How many did she get stopped by?
How many more traffic lights were green than red?

Substituting Simpler Numbers


A word problem involving large numbers often
seems difficult just because of these numbers. A
good problem-solving strategy is to consider first
the identical problem but with simpler numbers.

1-57

Chapter 1 Slide 57
Copyright 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved.

Example
Dinner tickets for a benefit are sold at $12 each. How
many dinner tickets must be sold before the benefit
profits if the break even amount for the cost of food is
$2,700?

To determine the operation, substitute a simpler number


such as $24 for the break even amount. Because it is a
fit in question, we must divide $24 by $12. Going
back to the original problem, we see that we must
divide $2,700 by 12.

1-58

Making a Table
When a word problem involves many numbers,
organizing the numbers in a table often leads to a
solution.
Example A semi truck driver must travel 1,372
miles to its destination. If the driver travels 65 miles
in an hour, how many miles are remaining after 8
hours?
