... Since P QRS is made up of three squares of side length 15 cm, then its area is 3(15 cm)2 or 3(225) cm2 = 675 cm2 . Answer: (B) 18. First, 20052 = 4020025, so the last two digits of 20052 are 25. We need to look at 20055 , but since we only need the final two digits, we don’t actually have to calcula ...

CHAP08 Multiplicative Functions
... There are functions F(n) in number theory that have the property that F(mn) = F(m)F(n) whenever m, n are coprime. Functions with this property are called multiplicative functions. Of course there are trivial examples such as the constant functions F(n) = 1 or G(n) = n. Less trivial examples are the ...

He thought it would be easier to multiply the 5 by the –4 first, since he already knew that product. Can Quincy mul ...

Decimals, Fractions, and Percents
... Converting Decimals to Percents • In order to convert a decimal to a percent, either multiply the decimal by 100 and write the percent sign (%), or move the decimal point two places to the right and write the percent sign (%). Example 1: Convert 0.20 to a percent 0.20x 100= 20.00= 20% or 0.20= 0. 2 ...

Arithmetic

Arithmetic or arithmetics (from the Greek ἀριθμός arithmos, ""number"") is the oldest and most elementary branch of mathematics. It consists of the study of numbers, especially the properties of the traditional operations between them—addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Arithmetic is an elementary part of number theory, and number theory is considered to be one of the top-level divisions of modern mathematics, along with algebra, geometry, and analysis. The terms arithmetic and higher arithmetic were used until the beginning of the 20th century as synonyms for number theory and are sometimes still used to refer to a wider part of number theory.
