Order using the inequality symbols Find the common denominators Place the fractions in higher terms.

28. Order continued
3. Compare the numerators and place the correct inequality symbol in the answer.

29. Fractional Exponents
Write the original problem out and use the steps for multiplying fractions. Cross-cancel and multiply the numerators and the denominators.

30. Order Relation
To compare two fractions with different denominators; find the common denominator, place the fractions in higher terms, then compare the numerators and place the correct inequality symbol between the fractions.

31. Order of Operations
Use PEMDAS the same way as Chapter 1.

32. Combining Like Terms
Combine the terms that have the same variable part using the steps for addition and subtraction of fractions.

33. Solving for the Unknown
If the variable and fraction are connected by addition use subtraction in both sides of the equation to solve the unknown.
If they are connected by subtraction use addition on both sides to solve.
If the variable and unknown are connected by multiplication use division on both sides.

34. Decimal Notation
Standard Form: To write a decimal as a number( the place values tenths through hundred-billionths MUST be memorized).
Standard Form to Words: To write a decimal from a number to words.
Rounding: Find the place value being rounded and look ONE place to the right and use the same rules for rounding whole numbers.

39. Converting a Fraction to a Decimal
To change a fraction to a decimal: NUMERATOR divided by the DENOMINATOR. Round if asked to in the directions or the answer will terminate.

43. Unit Rates
Unit Rate- A comparison of two quantities that have different units per 1.
Write the unit rate as a rate(fraction) then divide: NUMERATOR divided by the DENOMINATOR. This will make the answer per 1.
Label the answer.

44. Proportions Proving the proportion True or Not True.
Cross-multiply: If the answers are the same it is a True (T) proportion. If the answers are not the same it is a Not True (NT) proportion.

48. Change a Fraction to a Percent
Change the fraction to a decimal ( numerator divided by denominator) first.
Move the decimal point TWO places from left to right.
In the division, if the answer does not terminate by hundredths, write the remainder as a fraction in simplest form.

49. Round to the nearest tenth ( of a percent ).
Change the fraction to a decimal to the ten-thousandths place value.
Move the decimal point TWO places from left to right and round the percent to the nearest tenth of a percent.

If the percent has a fraction in it: Drop the % symbol and multiply by 1 OVER 100 to convert to a fraction.

51. The Basic Percent Equation
The basic percent equation is used to solve problems when one of the quantities is missing.
Percent x Base = Amount is the basic percent equation.

52. Solving for the Amount
If the Amount is missing: Change the percent to a decimal or a fraction by using the correct conversion process.
Multiply the converted percent by the Base and the answer is the Amount.

53. Solving for the Percent

54. Solving for the Base Read and label the problem.
If the Base is missing: Change the percent to a decimal or fraction.
Divide the converted Percent into the Amount; the answer will be the Base.
