4! = ?
3 x 2 x 1 |
|
4 x 3 |
|
5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 |
|
4 x 3 x 2 x 1 |
A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.
Which of the following is a mixed number?
\(1 {2 \over 5} \) |
|
\({7 \over 5} \) |
|
\({a \over 5} \) |
|
\({5 \over 7} \) |
A rational number (or fraction) is represented as a ratio between two integers, a and b, and has the form \({a \over b}\) where a is the numerator and b is the denominator. An improper fraction (\({5 \over 3} \)) has a numerator with a greater absolute value than the denominator and can be converted into a mixed number (\(1 {2 \over 3} \)) which has a whole number part and a fractional part.
Simplify \( \frac{20}{68} \).
| \( \frac{7}{17} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{3} \) | |
| \( \frac{5}{17} \) | |
| \( \frac{8}{19} \) |
To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 20 are [1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20] and the factors of 68 are [1, 2, 4, 17, 34, 68]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 their greatest common factor (GCF).
Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:
\( \frac{20}{68} \) = \( \frac{\frac{20}{4}}{\frac{68}{4}} \) = \( \frac{5}{17} \)
What is \( \frac{4}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{7} \)?
| 1\(\frac{1}{6}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{15}\) | |
| \(\frac{12}{35}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{20}\) |
To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:
\( \frac{4}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{7} \) = \( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{7}{4} \)
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:
\( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{7}{4} \) = \( \frac{4 x 7}{6 x 4} \) = \( \frac{28}{24} \) = 1\(\frac{1}{6}\)
What is \( \frac{12\sqrt{20}}{6\sqrt{4}} \)?
| 5 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} \) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\) \( \sqrt{5} \) | |
| 2 \( \sqrt{5} \) | |
| \(\frac{1}{5}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} \) |
To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:
\( \frac{12\sqrt{20}}{6\sqrt{4}} \)
\( \frac{12}{6} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{20}{4}} \)
2 \( \sqrt{5} \)
