Notes and Study Helps
Some notes and special study helps are given to help with individual questions on the review
sheet. These correspond with the question numbers on the review sheet.
1, 2, 51. Divisibility Rules: A number is said to be divisible by another number if the second number
divides evenly into it and there is no remainder. For example 15 is divisible by 5 because when you
divide 5 into 15 the answer is a whole number (3) and there is no remainder. Divisibility rules are
rules that we can use to quickly check if a number can divide evenly into another number without
having to do the actual division.
The divisibility rules that students should know are as follows:
A whole number is divisible by:
2 if the number is even (ends in 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8).
3 if the sum of the digits is divisible by 3.
4 if the number represented by the last two digits is divisible by 4.
5 if the ones digit is 0 or 5.
6 if the number is divisible by both 2 and 3.
8 if the number represented by the last 3 digits is divisible by 8.
9 if the sum of the digits is divisible by 9
10 if the ones digit is 0.

5, 7. When we compare or relate a variable to an expression that contains the variable, we have a
relation. A relation can be used to describe a pattern and to solve problems. In a growing pattern of
numbers, a relation tells how each term of the pattern relates to the term number, rather than how
each term relates to the term that comes before it.
From a table of values, a relationship can be found. This relationship must be true for all terms in the
table.
Term #
Term

7

2
14

3
21

4
28

5
35

6
42

In the above table, if you look at Term 1, you might conclude that Term# + 6 = Term. This works for
Term #1 because 1+6 = 7 but it doesnt work for Term #2 because 2 + 6 does not equal 14, so this is
not the relationship.
You might also conclude that the relationship is Term# x 7 = Term. This works for Term#1, because
1 x 7 = 7. When we check it with the other Term #s we see that it also works. i.e.) 2 x7 = 14, 3 x 7
=21 Therefore we can conclude that we have found the relationship between Term # and Term for
the whole table.
Once we know the relationship for the table, we can use it to find the value for any Term if give the
Term #, without having to calculate all the terms in between. For example, if the above table were
extended the value of the term for Term # 500 would be 500 x 7 = 3500.

I = {, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, +4 }
The numbers farther to the right are the larger numbers.
Colored tiles can be used to represent integers. A tile representing + 1 and a tile representing -1 form
a zero pair. These tiles combine to model zero.

In the example above each white tile represents + 1 and each black tile represents
-1. Each of the five black tiles can be combined with a white tile to form a zero pair, which equals
zero. When this is done there is still one white tile left over, so the total value of all the tiles
combined is +1.

For additional information and practice see the following from Math Makes Sense 7
Adding Integers with Tiles: p.56-59
Adding Integers on a Number Line: p.60-64
Instead of using tiles or a number line, the following rules may be used to add integers:
1. If the signs are the same, add the numbers and keep the same sign.
Examples:
(+3) + (+5) = +8
(-7) + (-5) = -12
2. If the signs of the integers are different, subtract the numbers and take the sign of the
numerically larger number.
Examples:
(-9) + (+4) = -5
(+8) + (-3) = +5
Additional help can be found at the following websites.
http://www.mathwizz.com/integers/index.htm
http://www.mathplayground.com/ASB_OrbitIntegers.html
http://www.mathgoodies.com/games/integer_game/football.html
15. Colored tiles can be used to subtract integers. The concept of zero pairs may be used to subtract
integers.
To add integers, we combine groups of tiles. To subtract integers, we do the reverse, we remove
them from a group. Adding a zero pair to a set of tiles does not change its value. For example, (-3) +
0 = -3. If we do not have enough positive or negative tiles to take away from a group, we can add
zero pairs until we have enough to take away. For example, for the question (+3) (-2), we can do
the following.
We can represent + 3 as follows:

If we want to subtract (-2) from this, we cant because there are no black tiles to take away.
However, if we add two zero pairs to the model it will look different as shown below but the value
will still be the same.

18

The actual test will be very similar to this practice test.


Please see the attached pages for study notes and Internet links to help you do each type of question.

Review Sheet for Math Midterm Exam


Now we have two black tiles, representing (-2) to take away. When we do, we are left with 5 white
tiles as shown below, which has a value of (+5).

Therefore (+3) (-2) = (+5).


In addition to using tiles to subtract, we can also use a number line as explained later, or we can use
the following rule to subtract integers:
Instead of subtracting an integer, we can add its opposite.
Example: (-6) (+7) = (-6) + (-7) = (-13)
Example: (-8) (-5) = (-8) + (+5) = (-3)

16, 17, 61, 62. A number line can be used to subtract an integer. Usually this is done on a horizontal
number line, but it can also be done on a vertical number line as in this question or as can be found
on a thermometer. To subtract a positive integer on a number line, you move to the left. To subtract a
negative integer is the same as adding its opposite, so you move to the right. On a vertical number
line, to subtract a positive integer, you move down. To subtract a negative integer is the same as
adding its opposite, so you move up.

by the denominator (bottom number in the fraction). For example, as a decimal is equal to 3 4,
which equals 0.75. Because this has a definite number of decimal places, it is said to be a terminating
decimal. To change 2/3 to a decimal, we calculate 2 3 and get a result of 0.6666666666.When
we do this we can never finish the calculation because some of the digits repeat forever. This is

22, 67. When multiplying decimals the decimals dont have to be lined up. Instead just line up the
numbers and multiply normally. When you have a final answer, you then need to decide where to
place the decimal point. To do this, you add the total number of decimal places in the factors (the
numbers being multiplied). There will be that many decimal places in the answer. For example if you
multiply a number that has one decimal place by a number that has three decimal places, the product
would have a total of four decimal places. Also remember that you can use the inverse operation
(division) to check multiplication. You can also use estimation to check if your answer is reasonable.

23. When dividing decimals, you need to start by making sure the divisor is a whole number. If it
isnt you must multiply both the divisor and the dividend by a power of 10 to make it a whole
number. In the given question, 836.4 3.4, you would begin by multiplying both the dividend and
the divisor by 10 to get a new question, 8364 34. Then you would divide normally. When you
divide, place the decimal in the quotient (the answer) directly above the decimal in the dividend.
If the divisor had two decimal places, you would have to multiply both the divisor and dividend by
100. If it had three decimal places, you would have to multiply by 1000, etc.

expression. A word that is helpful in remembering the order the steps are to be done in is BEDMAS.
In BEDMAS, each letter stands for an operation:
B: Brackets
E: Exponents
D: Division or M: Multiplication
A: Addition or S: Subtraction
Division and Multiplication are at the same spot in the order so are simply done left to right.
Addition and Subtraction are the same and are simply worked from left to right.

25. Any fraction or decimal can be written as a percent, and vice versa. Percent is another name for
hundredths. To change a percent to a decimal, begin by dropping the % sign and then divide by 100;
(move the decimal point 2 places to the left).
Example #1: Write 82% as a decimal.
Begin by dropping the % sign.
82
Then divide by 100.
82100 = 0.82
Example #2: Write 40% as a decimal.
Begin by dropping the % sign.

26. Some fractions can easily be converted to percents by first finding equivalent fractions with a
denominator of 100 and then rewriting it as a percent.
Example: Write 15/20 as a percent.
Begin by writing an equivalent fraction for 15/20.
15/20 = 75/100 (Both the numerator and denominator were multiplied by 5)
Then rewrite as a percent.
75/100 = 75%
If the fraction cannot be written as an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100, then a different
method is used to convert the fraction to a percent. In such cases, you would divide the numerator by
the denominator to get a decimal. Then you would move the decimal two places to the right and add
a % sign.

27. To find out what fraction of a diagram is shaded, you would first count the number of shaded
parts. This would be the numerator or top number in your fraction. Then you would count the total
number of parts (shaded + unshaded). This would be your denominator in the fraction. This assumes
that all of the parts are an equal size.

In the diagram above 4 parts are shaded, so 4 is the numerator. Altogether there are 10 parts, so 10 is
the denominator. The fraction that is shaded then is 4/10. Sometimes fractions can be simplified into
lower terms if there is a number that divides evenly into both the numerator and denominator. In this
case, both 4 and 10 can be divided by 2, to get 2 and 5 respectively. Therefore, this fraction in lowest
terms is 2/5.

Benchmarks: If a number line is drawn that includes benchmarks such as , 1, 1 , 2 then


the numbers to be compared can be positioned on the number line. Then they can be put in
order by simply reading from the lowest number on the left to the highest number on the
right.
Equivalent Fractions: Before fractions can be compared, they must have the same
denominator. If all of the denominators are the same, then the numerators can be compared.
The fraction with the lowest numerator is the least and the number with the highest
numerator is the greatest.
Decimals: If all of the numbers are converted to decimals, they can then be compared. When
comparing decimals, it is sometimes easier if you add zeroes to the end of each number to
make sure they all have the same number of decimal places.

Before mixed fractions (such as 3 ) can be compared or converted to equivalent fractions or to

decimals, they should be written as improper fractions ( ). To convert a mixed fraction to an


improper fraction (where the numerator is larger than the denominator), you must first multiply the
denominator by the whole number part of the mixed fraction. Then add this to the numerator to get a
new sum. Then place this sum as the numerator over the original denominator. In the example above,

When adding decimals, remember to line up the decimal point. Also remember that you can use the
inverse operation (subtraction) to check addition. You can also use front-end estimation to check if
your answer is reasonable.
When subtracting decimals, remember to line up the decimal points. Also remember that you can use
the inverse operation (addition) to check addition. You can also use front-end estimation to check if
your answer is reasonable. (Front end estimation is simply ignoring the part of the number after the
decimal point and calculating the rest to get an approximate number. This wont give you an exact
answer but it will help you to see if your answer is reasonable and to show you if your decimal point
has been reasonably placed. Example) By using front-end estimation on the question 15.147 +

63. To change a decimal to a fraction, begin by seeing how many decimal places are in the decimal.
If the decimal has only one decimal place, then write the number as a fraction with a denominator of
10. If there are two decimal places, write the fraction with a denominator of 100.
After you have written the number as a fraction, it can sometimes be simplified by writing an
equivalent fraction in lower terms. To do this simply divide the numerator and denominator by the
same number, a number that divides evenly into both numbers.
Example #1: Write 0.62 as a fraction.
Begin by counting the number of decimal places. There are two decimal places (numbers after the
decimal), which means that the decimal extends to the hundredths place, so the fraction will have a
denominator of 100.
0.62 = 62/100
This can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.
62/100 = 31/50
Example #2: Write 0.4 as a fraction. 0.4 = 4/10 = 2/5

x 3), by 12 (3 x 4), by 18 (2 x 9), by 24 (3 x 8), by 36 (4 x 9) and by 72 (8x9).

74. To solve this problem, you should break the question into parts.

Calculate the area of the square first.


A = L x W or 4 x side (since all sides of a square are the same length.)
Then calculate the area of the parallelogram.
A = b x h. (See question 43).
Then add the area of the square and the parallelogram together.
Then subtract the area of the triangle since this part is overlapping and you dont want to

count it twice. A =

b x h (See question 45).

First calculate the area of the large circle. (See question 47) A= r . The diameter of this
circle is given. To find the radius, you need to divide the diameter by 2.
Next find the area of one of the smaller circles. Each circle is half the diameter of the larger
circle and each radius is half the diameter of a smaller circle. Therefore, the radius of each of
2

the smaller circles is the diameter of the larger circle divided by 4. A= r .


To find the total area of both smaller circles, you need to multiply the area of one of the
circles by 2.
Finally, subtract the total area of both smaller circles from the total area of the large circle.
This will leave the total area of the shaded regions.
