Rational Numbers Review Packet Name:________________________ Date:____________ Class:________ Addition Rules: If●the numbers have the same sign: Add the absolute values and keep the same sign. If the ● numbers have different signs: Subtract the absolute values and keep the sign of the number with the bigger absolute value. Example: Add: 9 + 13 Same sign? Subtract the absolute values. Choose the sign. No 13 9 = 4 |13| > |9| , so answer is 4. Example: Add: 7 + 4 Same sign? Add the absolute values. Choose the sign. Add each expression Same Sign? (yes/no) Yes 7 + 4 = 11 Both numbers are negative, so the answer is 11 Add or Subtract Absolute values Sum − 16 + 9 no 16 - 9 = 7 -7 − 23 + (− 14) yes 23 + 14 -37 57 + (− 90) − 19 + (− 6) − 123 + 132 76 + 34 subtraction problem ● as an addition problem. (Add the opposite) s for addition. ● Example: Subtract: 9 13 Rewrite as addition, (add 13). Same sign? Add the absolute values. Choose the sign. 9 + (13) Yes 9 + 13 = 22 Same sign, so keep that sign. The answer is 22. Example: Subtract: 7 (4) Rewrite as addition, (add 4) Same sign? Subtract the absolute values. 7 + 4 No 7 4 = 3 e as addition Date:____________ Choose the sign. |7| > |4|, so the answer is 3. Same Sign? Add or Subtract Absolute values Class:________ Sum − 16 + (− 9) Yes 16 + 9 = 25 -25 − 41 − (− 14) 45 − (− 29) − 33 − (− 86) − 35 − 35 7 − 19 − 16 − 9 positive. negative. lues Rational Numbers Review Packet Name:________________________ ● ● ● Example: Divide: 39 ÷ 13 Divide absolute values . Same sign? Different signs, so the quotient is negative. Example: Multiply: 7 ∙ (4) Multiply absolute values. Same sign? Same sign, so the product is positive. Same Sign? 39 ÷ 13 = 3 No 39 ÷ 13 = 3 7 ∙ 4 = 28 Yes 7 ∙ (4) = 28 Product or Quotient (16)( 9) = 144 No -144 (− 48) ÷ (− 3) 7(− 12) − 135 ÷ 9 (− 13)(− 13) 324 −18 − 16 • 9 Rational Numbers Review Packet Name:________________________ Date:____________ Class:________ Example: 8 to a decimal Convert 15 Divide the numerator by the denominator 8 ÷ 15 8 =0.5333... 15 Convert each fraction to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator. Fraction 2 9 Decimal 88 94 29 50 6 32 ● ● ● Example: Convert 0.624 to a fraction Write the digits as the numerator Write place value as the denominator Simplify 624 1000 624 ÷ 4 = 154 ÷ 2 = 77 1000 ÷ 4 = 250 ÷ 2 = 125 77 0.624 = 125 Convert each decimal to a fraction. Decimal Fraction 0.34 0.442 1.55 Rational Numbers Review Packet Name:________________________ 0.008 Date:____________ Class:________ ● ● ● ● Example 1: Convert 0.3444… to a fraction. Set the decimal equal to x. > x = 0.3444... Multiply x by 10 > 10x = 3.444… (x & 10x do not have same decimal pattern) Multiply x by 100 > 100x = 34.444… (10x & 100x have same decimal pattern) Subtract: 100x 10x > 100x = 34.444.... 10x = 3.444… 90x = 31 Solve and simplify > x = 31/90 0.3444… = 31/90 Example 2: Convert 0.2323… to a fraction. Set the decimal equal to x. > x = 0.2323... Multiply x by 100 > 100x = 23.2323… (x & 100x have same decimal pattern) Subtract: 100x x > 100x = 23.2323.... x = 0.2323… 99x = 23 Solve and simplify > x = 23/99 0.2323… = 23/99 Convert each decimal to a fraction. 24. 0.444... 25. 0.0222... 26. 0.7171... ● ● Example: Rational Numbers Review Packet Name:________________________ Date:____________ Class:________ √81 Find the square root of 81. What number times itself = 81 9 • 9 = 81 √81 = 9 Find the Square Root What number times itself equals the radicand solution 27. √49 7 • 7 = 49 √49 = 7 28. √289 29. √361 30. √100 31. √64 32. √ 100 121 √36 = 6 − √36 = − 6 ● ● Example: Find the two square roots of 25. Positive and Negative square root ± √25 5 • 5 = 25 & − 5 •− 5 = 25 5 & 5 Find the two square roots Positive Negative ± √16 ± √36 ± √225 Perfect Squares: These are numbers whose square roots are real numbers. Example: 100 is a perfect square because √100 = 10 1.44 is a perfect square because √1.44 = 1.2 9 is a perfect square because √ 9 25 = 35 The square root of a nonperfect square is an irrational number. This means it is a decimal with no repeating pattern and it never ends. (Just like ) Rational Numbers Review Packet Name:________________________ Date:____________ Class:________ ● ● ● Example: Find the square root of 78. 1. Find the two perfect squares, 78 is between 64 and 81. so, √78 is between √64 and √81 78 is closer to 81 so, √78 is closer to √81 than √64 78 is really close to 81, since √81 = 9, √78 ≈ 8.8 . 2.
