Unit 1 Notes: Rational Numbers and Decimal Expansion
... Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a quotient of two integers. Since decimals are special fractions, all the rules we learn for fractions will work for decimals. The only difference is the denominators for decimals are powers of 10; i.e., 101, 102, 103, 104, etc.... Students normall ...

... quite large – even though the absolute error remains small. This effect of a large relative error due to a small result in a subtraction is called cancellation. In this case, if the relative error is one or larger, then we don’t even necessarily have the right sign! That’s not a good thing for our t ...

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.
