9. GENERAL PROBLEM-SOLVING PROCEDURE Step 1. State the problem(s). 1-9 Step 4. Evaluate results. Step 3. Does the solution make sense? Step 2. Decide on the best method(s) to solve the problem(s).

10. HOW TO DISSECT AND SOLVE A WORD PROBLEM Sales: One hundred ninety-four million dollars. ----------->$194,000,000 -----------> $200,000,000 Profit: Twenty-two million, five hundred fifty-six thousand dollars --------> $22,556,000 ---------> $20,000,000 1-10 Tootsie Roll Industries’ sales reached one hundred ninety- four million dollars and a record profit of twenty-two million, five hundred fifty-six thousand dollars. Round the sales and profit figures all the way.

11. ADDITION OF WHOLE NUMBERS 3 Steps 1. Align the numbers to be added in columns according to their place values, beginning with the units place at the right and moving to the left. Example 2 11 1,362 5,913 8,924 6,594 22,793 1-11 3. Moving to the left, repeat Step 2 until all place values are added. 2. Add the units column. Write the sum below the column. If the sum is more than 9, write the units digit and carry the tens digit.

12. ALTERNATE CHECK Ones Column 2 + 3 + 4 + 413 Tens Column 6 + 1 + 2 + 918 Hundreds Column 3 + 9 + 9 + 526 Thousands Column 1 + 5 + 8 + 6 20 1-12 22,793 1,362 5,913 8,924 6,594 Add each column as a separate total and then combine. The end result is the same.

13. SUBTRACTION OF WHOLE NUMBERS 3 Steps 1. Align the minuend and subtrahend according to their place values. 1-13 Check 35 +379 414 3. Moving to the left, repeat Step 2 until all place values in the subtrahend are subtracted. Example 414 (Minuend) - 379 (Subtrahend) 35 Difference 2. Begin the subtraction with the units digits. Write the difference below the column. If the units digit in the minuend is smaller than the units digit in the subtrahend, borrow 1 from the tens digit in the minuend. One tens digit is 10 units.

14. 2. Multiply the right digit of the multiplier with the right digit of the multiplicand. Keep multiplying as you move left through the multiplicand. 836 1 Example 418 (Multiplicand) x 52 (Multiplier) 4 Steps 1. Align the multiplicand and multiplier at the right. MULTIPLICATION OF WHOLE NUMBERS— SHORTCUT TO ADDITION 1-14 1 2 X 418 = 836

15. MULTIPLICATION OF WHOLE NUMBERS 3. Your partial product right digit or first digit is placed directly below the digit in the multiplier that you used to multiply. 2,090 2 (Partial Product) 4. Continue steps 2 and 3 until the multiplication process is complete. Add the partial products to get the final product. 21,736 3 (Product) 2 50 X 418 = 20,900 1 2 X 418 = 836 3 Product = 21,736 1-15 +

16. CHECKING AND ESTIMATING MULTIPLICATION 1-16 Check 52 x 418 416 52 20 8 21,736 Check the multiplication process by reversing the multiplicand and multiplier and then multiplying. Estimate 50 x 400 20,000

17. MULTIPLICATION SHORTCUT WITH NUMBERS ENDING IN ZERO 1-17 1. When zeros are at the end of the multiplicand or the multiplier, or both, disregard the zeros and multiply. 3 Steps (4) 2. Count the number of zeros in the multiplicand and multiplier. (4) Example 65000 (3 zeros) x 420 (1 zero) (4 zeros) 3. Attach the number of zeros counted in Step 2 to your answer. Solution 65 x 42 130 260 0000 27,300,000

18. MULTIPLYING A WHOLE NUMBER BY A POWER OF 10 1-18 99 x 10 99 x 100 99 x 1,000 1. Count the number of zeros in the power of 10. 2 Steps 2. Attach that number of zeros to the right side of the other whole number to obtain the answer. Insert commas as needed. = 990 = 990 <----Add 1 zero = 9,900 = 9,900 <----Add 2 zeros = 99,000 = 99,000 <----Add 3 zeros

19. Divisor Quotient Dividend DIVISION OF WHOLE NUMBERS 1-19 1 15 120 8 0  Count how many times one number (Divisor) is contained in another number (Dividend). The result is the Quotient. Example 15 270

20. Example 7 169 DIVISION OF WHOLE NUMBERS 1-20  Count how many times one number (Divisor) is contained in another number (Dividend). The result is the Quotient. Divisor Quotient Dividend 2 14 29 4 R 1 28 1

21. ESTIMATING AND CHECKING DIVISION Check 138 x 36 828 4 14 4,968 + 111 5,079 Estimate 50 100 5,000 1-21 Example 36 R 111 Quotient Divisor 138 5079 Dividend 414 939 828 111 Add remainder

22. DIVISION SHORTCUT WITH NUMBERS ENDING IN ZEROS 2 Steps 1-22 = 9,500 <----Drop 1 Zero = 950 <----Drop 2 Zeros = 95 <----Drop 3 Zeros 2. Drop the same number of zeros in the dividend as in the divisor, counting from right to left. 95,000 / 10 -- 95,000 95,000 / 100 -- 95,000 95,000 / 1,000 -- 95,000 1. Count the number of ending zeros in the divisor.

26. DIVIDING DECIMALS 3-26 25. 328.00 25 78 75 30 25 50 13.12 Step 1. Make the divisor a whole number by moving the decimal point to the right. 2.5 32.800 Example Step 2. Move the decimal point in the dividend to the right the same number of places as in the divisor (step 1). If there are not enough places, add zeros to the right of the dividend. Step 3. Place the decimal point in the quotient above the new decimal point in the dividend. Divide as usual. 3 Steps

27. DECIMALS APPLICATIONS IN FOREIGN CURRENCY 3-27 CHECK $612.60 x $1.0210 = $600.00 Table factor from currency table The price of an Apple iPad 2 can be bought in Canada for $600 U.S. dollars. Using the currencies table from the Wall Street Journal let us see what the iPad 2 would sell for in Canadian dollars. In the table on page 74, 1 U.S. Dollar equals $1.0210 Canadian dollars. To find the cost in Canadian dollars: 1. You multiply the number of U.S. dollars ($600) times $1.0210. $600 x $1.0210 = $612.60 2. To check your calculations, take the $612.60 Canadian dollars cost of the iPad 2 and multiply it by $0.9794. This is what the Canadian dollar is worth against the U.S. dollar. It equals $599.98 (this amount is off.02 due to rounding).

28. SHORTCUTS FOR MULTIPLES OF 10 MULTIPLICATION 3-28 6.89 x 10 6.89 x 100 6.89 x 1000 68.9 6890 Step 1. Count the zeros in the multiplier. Step 2. Move the decimal point in the multiplicand the same number of places to the right as you have zeros in the multiplier. 689

29. SHORTCUTS FOR MULTIPLES OF 10 DIVISION 3-29 6.89 / 10 6.89 / 100 6.89 / 1000.689.00689.0689 Step 1. Count the zeros in the divisor. Step 2. Move the decimal point the same number of spaces to the left.
