Additional Links JOIN NOW The difference is that all fractions are expressed in factors of 10. The placement of the decimal point determines if it is a measure concerning tenths, hundredths, thousandths, ten thousandths, etc. , and it will directly influence the size of the whole numbers. When conducting addition or subtraction of decimals, the place values (that is, decimal points) of decimals must be in vertical alignment. Just as mixed numbers require a common denominator so decimals require this alignment In this respect, the common denominator is that tenths are under tenths, hundredths are under hundredths, etc. When multiplying decimals, it is necessary to treat them as whole numbers. Once you have determined the product the decimal point is moved to the left the same number of places as there are numbers after the decimal point in both the decimals being multiplied. For example: 5.678 x .02 =11345 0000= .11356 In this case, there are 5 numbers to the right of the decimal (678 and 02), therefore, 11356 should have the decimal placed in front of the first 1. The final number is .11356.

    Extractions: Advice From Former Math 2000 Students The best way to get a good grade in this class is to keep up on the homework assignments. They are not hard if you just use the formulas. The lectures are not at all boring. You can actually learn some useful things. Also, the group work can really help your social life. This class is unlike any other math class you have ever taken. You’re expected to learn and be able to apply the information presented to you, but it’s done in a very low pressure comfortable way. Math is not your enemy and BB is a great ally against such a myth. Good luck. As someone who looked at math as some life-threatening disease that I would never want to catch, I was terrified to walk into class the first day. However, I can say that my knowledge of math has increased because of this class. The professor is always approachable and (as advice) go see him! Also, if you have a question ask! You will learn in this class. Just remember, the unit on permutations will end! Good luck! I can’t give you any advice about what it takes to become engaged and want to learn other than be sure to actually go to class and you should do fine. Different people learn different ways, so I can’t really tell you how to succeed. Just come in with an open mind and try to pay attention.

    Extractions: Example Problems Math Jeopardy is a game played by two teams of students and requires a chalk board or white board. A master of ceremonies keeps the questions. The questions come in several categories and different point values within each category. The rules are as follows. The teams take turns selecting the next question. The first selection is given to the first person to volunteer or is decided by flipping a coin. Selection of the question is by the team member that comes to the board to work the problem. Once a question has been selected the other team chooses a representative to send to the board to work the problem. The master of ceremonies writes the question and any relevant pictures or diagrams on the board and says "Go!" The team members at the board work the problem on the board. The first person to get a correct answer earns the points the problem is worth for his team. People at the board are encouraged to copy or take ideas from the other person at the board (you cannot copy fast enough to pass someone). Team members not at the board may give advice as long as both people at the board can hear that advice and that advice is not the exact next step or the exact answer. If the advice given is the exact next step or answer the master of ceremonies says "foul" and the other team gets the points for the question. Pointing out errors is a good form of advice. Giving advice that is supposed to make the other team make an error is called

    Extractions: grid ... NEWSquiz Greetings from the Math Orientation Committee! It is the beginning of Orientation Week 2000, and you are new Frosh wondering what is in store for you; not only throughout the week, but also throughout the next several years. Below are a few pieces of advice about what's ahead. Let's start with advice about Frosh Week. First of all: HAVE FUN! Enjoy the week. You're about to start what is most likely the biggest undertaking in your life so far: becoming a university student. It'll be busy, so relax! Take in your new surroundings, and again, have fun. The second (and final) thing is to make friends. These are the people you will be seeing in the coming years, and they will be of invaluable help to you. Be it with your studies, or personal issues, people to talk to are extremely important if you expect to survive here. Also, as you are just starting here, you probably have a few questions: Exactly how does co-op work? How do classes work? Do we have homework? Where the hell can I get food around here? What's Village like? Etc... You need an incredible resource to answer these questions. Well, that resource is at your mere call: Frosh Leaders. Your leaders are upper-year students who have been through it all (well... most of them anyway). Ask them. You'll be truly amazed at what they know, and if your leaders don't know, they'll find someone who does. It's been said many times before, but it can never be said enough: Information is power. So don't be afraid to ask questions.

    Extractions: Next: ADVANCED PLACEMENT CREDIT IN Up: DEPARTMENTAL COURSES FOR MAJORS Previous: DEPARTMENTAL COURSES FOR MAJORS Contents Familiarity with statistics can open up a whole world of employment possibilities for students. The most obvious of these are the well established niches for statisticians such as the pharmaceutical industry, governmental agencies that measure and report data, etc. However, the purview of statistics is expanding more rapidly than ever. In recent years strong connections have been forged between statistics and finance and various branches of engineering and computer science such as machine learning, speech recognition, computer vision, data mining, neural networks and expert systems. in addition, the connection to medicine through statistical genetics represents what might be one of the most important contributions of Statistics in the next century. For these reasons, a modicum of training in statistics can serve as springboard to many different career endeavors. We offer several different suggestions for students depending on the emphasis they expect to place on statistics.

    Extractions: See also: Advice about Math at Berkeley High School May 2001 My daughter is doing very well in 6th grade math and would like to move on to algebra rather than taking 7th grade math next year. Have other parents had this experience? How did it work out? I'm not sure I understand your question. But if your child is being offered honors algebra as opposed to regular algebra, I'd look at it closely. Secondhand observation of one friend of my child's showed that it was very hard. If it's a choice between pre-algebra and algebra, and your child's teacher feels comfortable with that, that course seemed appropriate for my child who had to work hard but not too hard. Also, drop a line to Neil Smith and ask him for a name of a 7th grade math teacher to talk to. He's very responsive. My student has Ms. Mukerjee (sp?) who is very enthusiastic. You might want to talk to her. I am a ninth grader at Berkeley High. I skipped up to Algebra in seventh grade. It was difficult to be in a class where I was the youngest, but once I was used to it, I did OK in the class, although sometimes it was a struggle. I would recommend Algebra if your child is good at picking up new concepts very quickly and doesn't have social issues about being in a class with all eighth graders.

I know some kids in 5th and 6th grade who have been taught to count on their fingers, and that's where they're still at. I'm shocked, but maybe for no good reason? From: Dianna (3/98) Re: Times tables - my son is in the 3rd grade at LeConte Elementary here in Berkeley and he is learning multiplication, although they do not seem to be learning the times tables per se. I distinctly remember learning them myself in the 4th grade. I'm toying with the idea of teaching him the times tables this summer, as a fun thing to do in the car. Chanting the times tables is almost the same as chanting a poem, to me. From: Susan (3/98) At school my daughter learned the times tables (through ten) in third grade. At the beginning of fourth grade they reviewed the times tables and extended them through 12. (It's possible they began the process during second grade, but I don't remember.) From: Barbara (3/98) Our kids were drilled in facts (+,-,x, division) in 4th grade. They had 1 page sheets of each type which they kept testing themselves on to get their time down (and kept graphs of their progress.)

    Understanding and Recognizing math Disabilities Why math Matters Easier Said Than Done Signs of Struggle. Why math Matters A  
    http://www.pbs.org/parents/issuesadvice/strugglingtolearn/understanding_math.htm
    
    Extractions: A math disability, like other learning disorders, can stand in the way of a child's potential to succeed. As with other learning problems, early recognition of a math disability is the best first step toward helping a struggling child overcome it. Even so, parents commonly dismiss math difficulty as a normal part of life, especially if they too struggled with the subject when they were young. In the minds of many, mathematics is a subject that either comes naturally to a person or remains forever out of intellectual reach; either you get it or you don't. For many students today, getting it is no longer optional. In 1970, only nine percent of all jobs in the U.S. were considered technical. As the world's reliance on technology has grown, so too has the demand for people who can think in the abstract terms of math and science and, today, technical jobs make up nearly one-third of all employment opportunities. Schools have tried to keep pace with the demands of an increasingly competitive technological world by stiffening their mathematics requirements and invoking a system of high-stakes testing, resulting in a widening disparity between those who learn math with relative ease and those who struggle with math disabilities.
