Facts and Definitions
Lesson 1: Numbers to 1,000,000 Review
- A factor is a number that is multiplied by another number to get a product.
- A multiple is the product of a number and another number.
- A prime number is a number greater than 1 that has only 2 factors, the number itself and 1 (such as 2, 3, 11).
- A composite number is a number that has more than 2 factors (such as 4, 6, 12).
- The number 1 is neither prime nor composite.
- The only even prime number is 2. All other even numbers have 2 as a factor.
- Expanded form expresses a number by showing the value of each digit. In expanded form, 4,532 is 4,000 + 500 + 30 + 2.
- Expanded notation, or super expanded form, expresses a number by showing each digit multiplied by its place value. In expanded notation, 4,532 is (4 × 1,000) + (5 × 100) + (3 × 10) + (2 × 1).
Lesson 2: Comparing and Ordering Numbers
- [none]
Lesson 3: Digits to the Left and Right
- Decimal number: a number that has a decimal point
- Decimal point: the most important part of a decimal number that shows where numbers begin getting larger than 1 (to the left of the decimal point) and where they begin getting smaller than 1 (to the right of the decimal point)
- The digits to the left of the decimal point are whole numbers.
- The digit to the right of a decimal point is in the tenths place, and the digit to the right of the tenths place is in the hundredths place.
- A digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left.
Lesson 4: Decimals to Thousandths
- Thousandths: decimal place to the right of the hundredths place, the third place to the right of the decimal point
- Decimal numbers can be written using expanded form. For example, 0.25 in fraction expanded form is 2/10 + 5/100. In decimal expanded form, it is 0.2 + 0.05.
- Decimal numbers can be written using expanded notation (in which the digit in each place is multiplied by its place value).
- In fraction expanded notation, 0.25 is (2 × 1/10) + (5 × 1/100).
- In decimal expanded notation, 0.25 is (2 × 0.1) + (5 × 0.01).
Lesson 5: Comparing Decimals
- [none]
Lesson 6: Rounding to Thousandths
- Round to the greatest place means rounding to the highest place value showing.
- Round to the nearest whole number means rounding to the ones place.
Lesson 7: Powers of 10
- Powers of 10: numbers made by multiplying 10 by itself (for example, 10 × 10 × 10 = 1,000)
Lesson 8: Working With Powers of 10
- Exponent: a number written to the right and slightly above a base number that shows how many times to multiply the base number by itself (for example, 10²= 10 × 10)
- Scientific notation is a method of writing very large numbers.
- To multiply by powers of 10, you either move the digits to the left or the decimal point to the right.
- To divide by powers of 10, you either move the digits to the right or the decimal point to the left.
Lesson 9: Roman Numerals
- Roman numerals: the number system developed by the ancient Romans, still used today on clocks, to name sporting events, to name rulers of countries, in books, and in a variety of other places
