Multiplying Integers Practice

Introduction to multiplying integers practice:

Multiplying integers practice  is one of the important topics in mathematics. A multiplying is of the mathematical operation of scaling a number by another number. It is the basic operations in elementary arithmetic. Integer is the set of numbers in which positive whole numbers, negative whole numbers and zero. It has a complete unit or entity. But it has a no fractional part.

Positive whole number = {1, 2, 3, 4, …..}

Negative whole number = {-1, -2, -3, -4, …..}

Example for integers:

25, 1897, -665, 0, etc.,


Rules for multiplying integers practice:


Different rules for multiplying integers practice are,

Rule 1:

Positive number × Positive number = Positive number

Rule 2:

Positive number × - Negative number = - Negative number

Rule 3:

- Negative number × Positive number = - Negative number

Rule 4:

- Negative number × - Negative number = Positive number

Example problems for rules for multiplying integers practice:

Using rule 1:

12 × 12 = 144

Using rule 2:

15 × - 8 = - 120

Using rule 3:

-10 × 5 = - 50

Using rule 4:

- 14 × - 20 = 280


Example problems for multiplying integers practice:


Example 1:

Geometric Proofs Practice

Introduction for geometric proofs practice:

The geometric proofs practices are generally involved in solving the proof for some problems that involving the statements from different theorems that are earlierly solved. we have to analyze the question first and then we have to choose what kind of statements are used for the problems given. After those steps are taken, we have to match it for the statements with the problems. The proof represents the way that how to we prove the given problem or some postulates.

Examples to explain "geometric proofs practice"


We have to prove the straight line's equation is 3x + 2y = 7 and which is passing through the point (1,2) and which making the intercepts on the axes of the co-ordinate which are in the ratio 2 : 3.
Geometry proof:

The intercept form is    `x/a` + `y/b`  = 1   --------- (1)

The intercepts are in the ratio 2 : 3 ? a = 2k, b = 3k.

(1) becomes `x/(2k)` + `y/(3k)` = 1

i.e. 3x + 2y = 6k

We know that the point (1, 2) lies on the straight line given above, 3 + 4 = 6k

i.e. 6k = 7

Hence the required straight line's equation is 3x + 2y = 7

Thus we have proved the proof for finding the straight line's equation.

Practice:

In this problem as we are seen that it have specific points to prove the problems such that it having ratio on the concern and the point which the line passing.

Problems to explain "geometric proofs practice"


We have to prove that the point's co-ordinates are (8, 9) and (- 42, - 41) and given that it is reside on the straight line y = x + 1 which are at a distance of 5 units from the straight line 4x - 3y + 20 = 0
Geometry proof:

Let (x1, y1) be a point on y = x + 1

? y1 = x1 + 1 … (1)

The length of the perpendicular from (x1, y1) to the straight line

4x - 3y + 20 = 0 is `|(4x1 - 3y1 + 20)/sqrt(4^2 + (-3)^2)|`   = `+-`    `((4x1 - 3y1 + 20)/5)`

But the length of the perpendicular is given as 5.

?  `+-`    `((4x1 - 3y1 + 20)/5)`  = 5

4x1- 3y1 + 20 = `+-`  25

Considering the positive sign, 4x1- 3y1 + 20 = `+` 25

?                                   4x1 - 3y1 = 5 … (2)

Considering the positive sign, 4x1- 3y1 + 20 = `-` 25

?                                   4x1 - 3y1 =`-` 45 … (3)

Solving (1) and (2), we get x1 = 8, y1 = 9

Solving (1) and (3), we get x1 = - 42, y1 = - 41.

? The required points co-ordinates are (8, 9) and (- 42, - 41).

Thus we have proved the proof with the given points.

Practice:

In this problem as we are seen that it have specific points to prove the problems such that it having the perpendicular distance from the two straight lines.

Practice problems on geometric proof:

We have to prove the straight line's equation is x - `sqrt(3)` y + 12 = 0, if the perpendicular comes from the origin, which makes an 120° angle with x-axis and the distance from perpendicular comes from the origin is 6 units.
We have to show that the straight lines 132x +13 y - 9 = 0 and 132x + 13y - 10 = 0 are parallel.

Division Practice problems

Introduction to division practice problems:

In mathematics, especially in elementary arithmetic, division (÷) is the arithmetic operation that is the inverse of multiplication.

The following division methods are all based on the form Q = N / D where

• Q = Quotient

• N = Numerator (dividend)

• D = Denominator (divisor).

Specifically, if c times b equals a, written:

c x b = a

Where b is not zero, then a divided by b equals c, written:

a / b = c

In the above expression, a is called the dividend, b the divisor and c the quotient. (Source: Wikipedia)

I like to share this Difference Quotient Examples with you all through my article.

Example problems on division practice


Ex:1  Jack built a tower of blocks forty-five inches high. Each block in the tower is five inches tall. How many blocks were used to build the tower?

Sol: Jack built a tower of blocks forty-five inches high.

Each block in the tower is five inches tall.

So, total blocks = 45 / 5

Therefore total blocks used to build the tower = 9 blocks

Ex:2 The school's Internet connection transferred thirty six megabytes of data in six seconds. How many megabytes can it transfer in just one second?

Sol:

The school's Internet connection transferred thirty six megabytes Data in six seconds.

So, therefore total megabytes can it transfer in just one second

= 36 / 6 = 6 megabytes.

Ex:3 There are eight soft drink machines in the university. They hold sixty - four cases of soda altogether. How many cases does each machine hold?

Sol:

There are eight soft drink machines in the university.

They hold sixty - four cases of soda altogether.

Total cases of soda machine hold = 64 / 8

= 8 Cases of soda

Ex:4 Zachary used five thousand, five hundred forty-four chips to make a big batch of giant chocolate chip cookies. Each cookie got about eighteen chips. How many cookies did Zachary make?

Sol:

Zachary used five thousand, five hundred forty-four chips to make a big batch of giant chocolate chip cookies

Each cookie got about eighteen chips

So, total cookies Zachary make = 5544 / 18

= 308 Cookies

Ex:5 Twenty-five busses brought a total of seven hundred fifty passengers to the city. About how many passengers were on each bus?

Sol:

Twenty-five busses brought a total of seven hundred fifty passengers to the city.

So, total passengers were on each bus = 750 / 25

= 30 Passengers

Reasoning Practice Test

Introduction:

Let us learn about the reasoning practice test. Reasoning test is a test which is conducted to get placed in international colleges, universities and in companies. Reasoning test  practice consists of quantitative aptitude, verbal reasoning and analytical writing. Quantitative aptitude involves math problem solving questions on various topics. Practice of reasoning test questions helps the students to get skilled in aptitude questions. It also helps the students to get prepared for SAT and ACT test.

I like to share this Quantitative Data Collection Methods with you all through my article.

Reasoning practice test:


Example 1:

A trader mixes 30 kg of rice at Rs. 18 per kg with 28 kg of rice of other variety at Rs. 34 per kg and sells the mixture at Rs. 32 per kg. What is the profit percentage?

Solution:

Total price of 58kg mixture rice = ( 30 x 18 + 28 x 34)

= 540 + 952

= Rs 1492.

Sell price of 58 kg rice = (58 x 32)

= Rs 1852

Total gain amount        = Rs 1852 - Rs 1492

= Rs 360

Total gain percentage = (360/1492)*100

= 0.24 * 100

= 24%

The profit gain is 24%



Example 2:

Vinay has 100 kg of wheat, part of wheat which he sells at 8% profit and the rest of wheat at 18% profit. He gains 14% on the whole. What is the quantity sold at 18% profit?

Solution:

From the given data, form two equations,

Part of wheat sold at 8%    = X

Part of wheat sold at 18%  = Y

X + Y = 100  equation 1

0.08X + 0.18Y = 100(0.14)

0.08X + 0.18Y = 14 equation 2

Multiply equation 1 with 0.18

0.18X + 0.18Y = 18  equation 1

0.08X + 0.18Y = 14  equation 2     (subtract)

0.10X                = 4

Divide 0.10 on both sides,

0.10X/0.10 = 4/0.10

X = 40 kg

Total quantity            = 100

Remaining quantity = 100 - 40

Y  = 60 kg

The quantity which is sold at  18% profit is 60 kg.
