4 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 4 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Number Theory The study of numbers and their properties. The numbers we use to count are called natural numbers, N, or counting numbers.

5 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 5 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Factors The natural numbers that are multiplied together to equal another natural number are called factors of the product. A natural number may have many factors. Example: The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24.

6 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 6 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Divisors If a and b are natural numbers and the quotient of b divided by a has a remainder of 0, then we say that a is a divisor of b or a divides b.

7 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 7 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Prime and Composite Numbers A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that has exactly two factors (or divisors), itself and 1. A composite number is a natural number that is divisible by a number other than itself and 1. The number 1 is neither prime nor composite; it is called a unit.

34 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 34 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Fractions Fractions are numbers such as: The numerator is the number above the fraction line. The denominator is the number below the fraction line.

35 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 35 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Reducing Fractions In order to reduce a fraction to its lowest terms, we divide both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common divisor. Example: Reduce to its lowest terms. Solution:

36 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 36 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Mixed Numbers A mixed number consists of an integer and a fraction. For example, 3 ½ is a mixed number. 3 ½ is read “three and one half” and means “3 + ½”.

37 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 37 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Improper Fractions Rational numbers greater than 1 or less than –1 that are not integers may be written as mixed numbers, or as improper fractions. An improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is greater than its denominator. An example of an improper fraction is.

38 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 38 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Converting a Positive Mixed Number to an Improper Fraction Multiply the denominator of the fraction in the mixed number by the integer preceding it. Add the product obtained in step 1 to the numerator of the fraction in the mixed number. This sum is the numerator of the improper fraction we are seeking. The denominator of the improper fraction we are seeking is the same as the denominator of the fraction in the mixed number.

39 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 39 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Example Convert to an improper fraction.

40 Chapter 5 Section 1 - Slide 40 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Converting a Positive Improper Fraction to a Mixed Number Divide the numerator by the denominator. Identify the quotient and the remainder. The quotient obtained in step 1 is the integer part of the mixed number. The remainder is the numerator of the fraction in the mixed number. The denominator in the fraction of the mixed number will be the same as the denominator in the original fraction.
