Number TheoryThe study of numbers and their properties.The numbers we use to count are called
natural numbers, , or counting numbers.
{1,2,3, 4,5,...}
![Page 4: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
FactorsThe natural numbers that are multiplied
together to equal another natural number are called factors of the product.
Example: The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and
24.
![Page 5: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
DivisorsIf 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.
![Page 6: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Prime and Composite NumbersA 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.

The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic
Every composite number can be expressed as a unique product of prime numbers.
This unique product is referred to as the prime factorization of the number.
![Page 10: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Division Method1. Divide the given number by the smallest
prime number by which it is divisible.2. Place the quotient under the given number.3. Divide the quotient by the smallest prime
number by which it is divisible and again record the quotient.
4. Repeat this process until the quotient is a prime number.

Example of division methodWrite the prime factorization of 663.
The final quotient 17, is a prime number, so we stop. The prime factorization of 663 is 3 •13 •17

Finding the LCM of Two or More Numbers Determine the prime factorization of each
number. List each prime factor with the greatest
exponent that appears in any of the prime factorizations.
Determine the product of the factors found in step 2.
![Page 13: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Example (LCM)Find the LCM of 63 and 105.
63 = 32 • 7105 = 3 • 5 • 7
Greatest exponent of each factor:32, 5 and 7
So, the LCM is 32 • 5 • 7 = 315.

Whole NumbersThe set of whole numbers contains the set of
natural numbers and the number 0.Whole numbers = {0,1,2,3,4,…}
![Page 15: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
IntegersThe set of integers consists of 0, the natural
numbers, and the negative natural numbers. Integers = {…–4, –3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, 3 4,…}On a number line, the positive numbers
extend to the right from zero; the negative numbers extend to the left from zero.

Terminating or Repeating Decimal NumbersEvery rational number when expressed as
a decimal number will be either a terminating or a repeating decimal number.
Examples of terminating decimal numbers are 0.7, 2.85, 0.000045
Examples of repeating decimal numbers 0.44444… which may be written
0.4,
and 0.2323232323... which may be written 0.23.

whose decimal representation is a nonterminating, nonrepeating decimal number.
Examples of irrational numbers: 5.12639573...

Radicals are all irrational
numbers. The symbol is called the radical sign. The number or expression inside the radical sign is called the radicand.

Properties of the Real Number System Closure
If an operation is performed on any two elements of a set and the result is an element of the set, we say that the set is closed under that given operation.
![Page 34: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Commutative PropertyAddition
a + b = b + a for any real numbers a and b.
Multiplication a • b = b • a for any real numbers a and b.
![Page 35: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Example8 + 12 = 12 + 8 is a true statement.5 9 = 9 5 is a true statement.
Note: The commutative property does not hold true for subtraction or division.
![Page 36: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Associative PropertyAddition (a + b) + c = a + (b +
c),
for any real numbers a, b, and c.
Multiplication (a • b) • c = a • (b • c),
for any real numbers a, b, and c.
![Page 37: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Example(3 + 5) + 6 = 3 + (5 + 6) is true.
(4 6) 2 = 4 (6 2) is true.
Note: The associative property does not hold true for subtraction or division.
![Page 38: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Distributive PropertyDistributive property of multiplication over
addition
a • (b + c) = a • b + a • c
for any real numbers a, b, and c.
Example: 6 • (r + 12) = 6 • r + 6 • 12 = 6r + 72
![Page 39: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
ExponentsWhen a number is written with an exponent,
there are two parts to the expression: baseexponent
The exponent tells how many times the base should be multiplied together.

Scientific NotationMany scientific problems deal with very large
or very small numbers.93,000,000,000,000 is a very large number.0.000000000482 is a very small number.
![Page 41: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Scientific Notation continuedScientific notation is a shorthand method
used to write these numbers.
9.3 1013 and 4.82 10–10 are two examples of numbers in scientific notation.
![Page 42: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
To Write a Number in Scientific Notation1. Move the decimal point in the original number to
the right or left until you obtain a number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10.
2. Count the number of places you have moved the decimal point to obtain the number in step 1.If the decimal point was moved to the left, the count is to be considered positive. If the decimal point was moved to the right, the count is to be considered negative.
3. Multiply the number obtained in step 1 by 10 raised to the count found in step 2. (The count found in step 2 is the exponent on the base 10.)
![Page 43: Math 150 - Chapter 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/5681303f550346895d95de23/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
ExampleWrite each number in scientific notation.
a) 1,265,000,000.1.265 109
b) 0.0000000004324.32 1010

To Change a Number in Scientific Notation to Decimal Notation1. Observe the exponent on the 10.2. a) If the exponent is positive, move the
decimal point in the number to the right the same number of places as the exponent. Adding zeros to the number might be necessary.
b) If the exponent is negative, move the decimal point in the number to the left the same number of places as the exponent. Adding zeros might be necessary.
