/ \ \ / \ \
3 x 2 x 2 2 x 2 x 3
The bottom line of Prime Factorization contains only Prime Numbers multiplied by one another
The order of the Prime Numbers does not matter
The order of the Prime Numbers will depend on the Factors initially chosen
Regardless of the Factors initially chosen, the same number of Prime Numbers will also result in the Prime Factorization (bottom) line
o The Prime Factorization of 12 will always result in the product of two 2’s and one 3

Section 8.2 Prime Numbers and Composite Numbers (continued)
Equivalent Products Equivalent Products results from multiplying combinations of factors of a number
Equivalent Products of 72
1 x 72
2 x 36 (which is the double of 1 and half of 72)
3 x 24 (which is the triple of 1 and one third of 72)
4 x 18 (which is quadruple of 1 and one fourth of 72)
6 x 12 (which is six times 1 and one sixth of 72)
8 x 9 (which is eight times 1 and one eighth of 72)
9 x 8 (which is nine times 1 and one ninth of 72)
12 x 6 (which is twelve times 1 and one twelfth of 72)
18 x 6 (which is eighteen times 1 and one eighteenth of 72)
24 x 3 (which is twenty-four times 1 and one twenty-fourth of 72)
36 x 2 (which is thirty-six times 1 and one thirty-sixth of 72)
Results when you multiply a number by a value and divide the number by the same value
The multiplication is offset by the division
The division is offset by the multiplication
Multiplying by 2 if offset by dividing by 2 (which is the same as taking one half)
Multiplying by 3 is offset by dividing by 3 (which is the same as taking one third)
Multiplying by 4 is offset by dividing by 4 (which is the same as taking one fourth)
Multiplying by 5 is offset by dividing by 5 (which is the same as taking one fifth)
Multiplying by 6 is offset by dividing by 6 (which is the same as taking one sixth)
Multiplying by 7 is offset by dividing by 7 (which is the same as taking one seventh)
Multiplying by 8 is offset by dividing by 8 (which is the same as taking one eighth)
Multiplying by 9 is offset by dividing by 9 (which is the same as taking one ninth)
Multiplying by 10 is offset by dividing by 10 (which is the same as taking one tenth)
This pattern continues forever

Addition (Sum) When a number is added to another number, the answer is call the Sum
Adding a positive number to a positive number 8 + 5
Start at the first number (8)
Move to the right the number of positions of the second number (5)
8 + 5 = 13 Adding a positive number to a negative number -8 + 5
Start at the first number (-8)
Move to the right the number of positions of the second number (5)
-8 + 5 = -3
Notice that the sign of the answer (negative) is the same as the sign of the larger number (-8) Adding a negative number to a positive number 8 + (-5)
Start at the first number (8)
Move to the left the number of positions of the second number (5)
o This is the same as subtracting the second number from the first number
o 8 + (-5) 8 – 5
8 + (-5) = 3
Notice that the sign of the answer (positive) is the same as the sign of the larger number (8) Adding a negative number to a negative number -8 + (-5)
Start at the first number (-8)
Move to the left the number of positions of the second number (5) o This is the same as subtracting the second number from the first number
o -8 + (-5) -8 – 5
o Because both numbers are negative, you actually add the values and keep the negative sign
-8 + (-5) = -13
Notice that the sign of the answer (negative) is the same as the sign of both numbers
24
Section 8.5 Arithmetic Operations on Numbers (continued)
Subtraction (Difference) When a number is subtracted from another number, the answer is call the Difference
Subtracting a positive number from a positive number 8 – 5
Start at the first number (8)
Move to the left the number of positions of the second number (5) o The is the same as adding a negative number to a positive number
o 8 – 5 8 + (-5)
8 – 5 = 3
Notice that the sign of the answer (positive) is the same as the sign of the larger (8) value
Subtracting a positive number from a negative number -8 – 5
Start at the first number (-8)
Move to the left the number of positions of the second number (5) o This is the same as adding a negative number to another negative number
o -8 – 5 -8 + (-5)
o Because both numbers are negative, you actually add the values and keep the negative sign
-8 – 5 = -13
Subtracting a negative number from a positive number 8 – (-5)
Start at the first number (8)
Move to the right the number of positions of the second number (5) o The is the same as adding the second number to the first number
o 8 – (-5) 8 + 5
o Because both numbers are positive, you actually add the values and keep the positive sign
8 – (-5) 8 + 5 13 Subtracting a negative number from a negative number -8 – (-5)
Start at the first number (-8)
Move to the right the number of positions of the second number (5) o This is the same as adding the second number to the first number
o -8 – (-5) -8 + 5
-8 – (-5) -8 + 5 -3
Notice that the sign of the answer (negative) is the same as the sign of the larger (-8) value
25
Section 8.5 Arithmetic Operations on Numbers (continued)
Multiplication (Product) When a number is multiplied by another number, the answer is call the Product
Multiplication is “repeated addition”
8 x 5 means “repeatedly add the value 8 (5 sets of times)” 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8
5 x 8 means “repeatedly add the value 5 (8 sets of times)” 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5
Multiplication is a “short hand” way is saying “add this value over and over this many times” Multiplying a positive number with a positive number 8 x 5
Results in a positive answer
8 x 5 = 40 Multiplying a positive number with a negative number 8 x (-5)
Results in a negative answer
8 x (-5) = -40
Multiplying a negative number with a positive number (-8) x 5
Results in a negative answer
(-8) x 5 = -40 Multiplying a negative number with a negative number (-8) x (-5)
Results in a positive answer
(-8) x (-5) = 40
General Multiplication Principles
When multiplying two values: o When the signs are the same, the answer is positive
o When the signs are different, the answer is negative
When multiplying more than two values: o When there is an even number of negative values, the answer is positive
o When there is an odd number of negative values, the answer is negative
26
Section 8.5 Arithmetic Operations on Numbers (continued)
Division (Quotient) When a number is divided into another number, the answer is call the Quotient
Division is “repeated subtraction”
40 ÷ 5 means “repeatedly divide 40 in to groups containing 5 elements”
The final answer specifies “how many groups” there are
Repeatedly “dividing 40 into groups containing 5 elements” will result in 8 groups o Therefore, 40 ÷ 5 = 8
Dividing a positive number by a positive number 40 ÷ 5
Results in a positive answer
40 ÷ 5 = 8 Dividing a positive number by a negative number 40 ÷ (-5)
Results in a negative answer
40 ÷ (-5) = -8 Dividing a negative number by a positive number (-40) ÷ 5
Results in a negative answer
(-40) ÷ 5 = -8
Dividing a negative number with a negative number (-40) ÷ (-5)
Results in a positive answer
(-40) ÷ (-5) = 8 General Division Principles
When dividing two values:
o When the signs are the same, the answer is positive
o When the signs are different, the answer is negative
When dividing more than two values: o When there is an even number of negative values, the answer is positive
o When there is an odd number of negative values, the answer is negative

If the fractions have the same denominators, use the steps for “Subtracting Fractions with Like
Denominators”
If the fractions have different denominators, use the steps for “Subtracting Fractions with Unlike
Denominators”
If the fraction to the right of the minus sign is great than the fraction to the left of the minus sign, you
will have to “borrow” from the whole number to the left of the minus sign
Subtract 1 from the fraction to the left of the minus sign
Add the denominator value on the fraction to the left of the minus sign to the numerator value to the
fraction to the left of the minus sign (creating an improper fraction)
Subtract the whole number to the right of the minus sign from the whole number to the left of the
minus sign
Subtract the fraction part of the number to the right of the minus sign from the improper fraction to
the left of the minus sign
Reduce the final answer if possible

For multiplying fractions, remember this phrase “Simplify before you multiply”
Multiplying Mixed Fractions
Convert each mixed fraction to the corresponding improper fraction
Reduce the fractions if possible by combining numerators and denominators (whether from the same
fraction or from different fractions)
Multiply the numerators
Multiply the denominators
If the answer results in an improper fraction, convert the final answer back to a mixed fraction

Dividing Fractions by Fractions
Multiply first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction
Often phrased by teachers as “keep it, change it, flip it”
“Keep” the first fraction as is
“Change” the operation from division to multiplication
“Flip” the numerator and denominator of the second fraction
Do not attempt to divide fractions, but always multiply them
Example: 4
3 ÷

Dividing Fractions by Whole Numbers
Use the “keep it, change it, flip it” concept
“Keep” the first fraction as is
“Change” the operation from division to multiplication
“Flip” the whole number to become a fraction (the reciprocal of the whole number)
Now you multiply the first fraction by the second fraction
See if you can reduce the fractions’ numerator and/or denominator prior to multiplying
One all numerators and denominators have been reduced, multiply the numerators
Then multiply the denominators
At this point, the final answer should already be reduced

Dividing Whole Numbers by Fractions
Use the “keep it, change it, flip it” concept
“Keep” the first value (whole number) as is
“Change” the operation from division to multiplication
“Flip” the numerator and denominator of the second value (the fraction)
Now you multiply the whole number by the “flipped” second value
See if you can reduce the fractions’ numerator and/or denominator prior to multiplying
One all numerators and denominators have been reduced, multiply the numerators
Then multiply the denominators
At this point, the final answer should already be reduced
If the answer is an improper fraction, you can convert it to a mixed fraction

Section 9.2 Fraction Arithmetic (continued)
Dividing Mixed Fractions
Convert each mixed fraction to the corresponding improper fraction
Use the “keep it, change it, flip it” concept
“Keep” the first value (the original fraction) as is
“Change” the operation from division to multiplication
“Flip” the numerator and denominator of the second value (the improper fraction)
Reduce the fractions if possible by combining numerators and denominators (whether from the same
fraction or from different fractions)
Multiply the first value by the second
At this point, the final answer should already be reduced
If the answer is an improper fraction, you can convert it to a mixed fraction
