decimal to percent

Move the decimal point to the right two places, [always 2 places right]. Add the percent sign behind the new number. (Example: 0.13 to a percent = 13% 0.002 to a percent = 0.2%)

percent to decimal

Move the decimal point two spaces away from the percent sign, [always 2 places left]. Drop the percent sign. When a decimal point is not visible, know that it is always located AFTER the last number in a whole number. (Example: 85.4% to a decimal = 0.854 75% [decimal not visible] to a decimal = 0.75)

dividing decimals

Move the decimal to the right in the divisor, making it a whole number. Move the decimal the same number of places in the dividend and bring to the top in the quotient, then divide normally. (Example: 34/2.5 is 340.0/25.)

How to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

add, and the answer will be negative; negative plus negative equals negative (-2 + -5 = -7)

a positive minus a negative

add, and the answer will be positive; positive minus negative equals positve (2 - -3 = 5)

percent change

amount of change divided by original amount, times 100 (amount of change/original amount * 100)

area formula

area = length times width; to solve, all measurements must have the same units, and may require conversions

percent decrease

subtract new amount from old amount, divided by original amount times 100 ([original amount - new amount]/original amount * 100)

like signs become

become positive

binary

a scientist must measure the distance between two twigs in a nest. which would be the most accurate tool to use for this task? ruler or caliper

caliper

cenversion by proportion eg; 12 inches to centimeters

dividing mixed fractions

convert any mixed fraction to an improper fraction, and divide as usual (invert the second fraction and multiply)

multiplying mixed fractions

convert any mixed fraction to an improper fractions, and multiply as usual (top times top & bot times bot)

subtracting mixed fractions

convert any mixed fractions to improper fractions, and subtract (apply common denominators if needed)

ratios; finding the whole when a total is given

convert the ratio to a fraction by adding together the parts of the ratio, this sum is the whole and will be the denominator to the parts to cross multiply. (ratio 5:4 = 9; 4/9 and tot 90 is 4/9 = x/90; x = 40)

finding ratio equivalents

cross multiply with given ratio and information

original price equals

divide new price by whole amount minus % mark up, or mark down (new price/[whole - percent mark down or mark up])

improper fraction to mixed fraction

divide the larger numerator by the smaller denominator; the quotient becomes the whole number, the remainder becomes the numerator, and the denominator stays the same.

fraction to percent

divide the top number by the bottom number. then multiply the result by 100, and add the "%" sign.

dividing fractions

don't ask why, invert the second fraction and multiply

equations with more than one variable

example: solve for y: (4x + 3y = 3x + 2y). combine like terms: (3y - 2y = 3x - 4x). solve for y: (y = -x)

adding mixed fractions

first add the whole numbers, then add the fractions (apply common denominators if needed)

multiplying in algebraic equations

first multiply the coefficients. Then "multiply" the variables by ADDING together the variable's exponents.

ratios can be writen as

fraction,using a colon or in word form like 5 to 12 as an example

P E M D A S

in a math problem, the order of steps done from left to right starting with parenthesis, then exponents, multiplying & dividing, and adding & subtracting

foil method for proportions

inside times inside and outside times outside

interest (I)

interest = principle times rate, times time (I = prt)

adding and subtracting decimals

line up decimals, and add or subtract

percent increase

subtract old amount from new amount, divided by original amount times 100 ([new amount - old amount]/original amount * 100)

How many kilograms are there in 11 lbs

multiply 2.2 by 11 =24.2

find ratio of 6:16

multiply both sides of the original ratio by 35 will give =210:560

binomial times polynomial

multiply both terms in the binomial, one by one, with each term in the polynomial creating a first term and a second term, then solve by adding the two terms together.

Amount increase or decrease

multiply original price times % mark up, or mark down (original price * percent mark up or mark down)

mixed fraction to improper fraction

multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator, keep the original denominator

unlike signs become

negative

(-) / (+) =

negative number

adding & subtracting in algebraic equations

only like terms can be added or subtracted. A like term is one with the same variable or combination of variables. Constants are numbers without variables attached, and those can be grouped together as well.

adding positive and negative numbers

subtract, and use sign of larger number (3 + -4 = -1 or -3 + 4 = 1)

perimeter formula

perimeter = width + width + length + length; to solve, all measurements must have the same units, and may require conversions

(-) * (-) =

positive number

principle (p)

principle = interest divided by rate, times time (p = I/rt)

rate (r)

rate = interest divided by principle, times time (r = I/pt)

monomial times monomial

remember a variable with no exponent has an implied exponent of 1. First multiply the coefficients. Then "multiply" the variables by ADDING together the variable's exponents. ( [3 x4 y2 z][2 y4 z5]= 6 x4 y6 z6)

a cake recipe calls for 2 1/2 cups of flour. How many cups are neededn to make 6 cakes

set up a proportion 20.5/1 =x/6 cross multiply to solve 2.5x6=x,x=15 So 1 cake takes 2 1/5 cups so 21/5 x 6=15 cups

multiplying fractions

simple; top times top and bot times bot

IS/OF

solving percent problems set up a proportion %/100= is/of eg: 25% of what number is 6 25/100=6/x x=24 What percent of 40 is 28? (formula) %/100= is/of x/100=28/40 x=70 to check multiply .70 X 40=28 or 70/100=28/40 when reduce are equivalent fractions 7/10=7/10

A roast was cooked at 325 Fahrenheit in the oven for 4 hours. The internal temp. rose from 32 Fahrenheit to 145 Fahrenheit. What was the average rise in temperature per hour?

temp./hr = (145-32)Fahrenheit/4hrs. = 113F/4hrs = 28.25 F/hr

multiplying & dividing with different signs

the answer will be negative when multiplying or dividing different signs

multiplying & dividing with the same signs

the answer will be positive whether both signs are positive, or both signs are negative

GCF

the largest number that can divide evenly into, and be shared by, two numbers (7 - 1, 7 & 21 - 1, 7, 3, 21: GCF = 7)

time (t)

time = interest divided by principle, times rate (t = I/pr)

10 kilograms is equivalent to how many pounds?

to convert kilograms to pounds, multiply 2.2 lbs/kilo. 10 * 2.2 = 22

comparison of rational numbers

to determine which of two fractions is greater than, less than, or equal; cross multiply and apply product to the numerator of the fraction. The greater number will be revealed.

direct proportion

two quantities that are directly proportional will increase or decrease in tandem. They change in the same direction. For direct proportions, solve by cross multiplying.

inverse proportion

two quantities which are inversely proportional will change in opposite directions. As one increases, the other will decrease. For indirect proportions, examine the rates at which the two quantities change, then solve using a fractional equation.

what percent of 25 is 5?

x 25 = 5 so 5/25 which equals .20 or 20%
