Fractions must share a common denominator in order to be added or subtracted. The common denominator is the least common multiple of all the denominators.
The greatest common factor (GCF) is the greatest factor that divides two integers.
Arithmetic operations must be performed in the following specific order:
The acronym PEMDAS can help remind you of the order.
Percentages are ratios of an amount compared to 100. The percent change of an old to new value is equal to 100% x \({ new - old \over old }\).
A rate is a ratio that compares two related quantities. Common rates are speed = \({distance \over time}\), flow = \({amount \over time}\), and defect = \({errors \over units}\).
