What lets you put equal groups together?
Combining equal groups together is possible through the concept of multiplication. By multiplying the number of groups with the number of items in each group, you can determine the total number of items. For instance, if you have 3 groups with 4 items in each group, you can put them together by multiplying 3 x 4 to get a total of 12 items.
When you divide how do you know if you are finding the number in each group or the number of equal groups?
When you have finished dividing, the divisor (the number you divided BY) and thequotient (the answer you got) together, are both of those numbers, either way.Either of them can be the number of equal groups, and then the other one is thenumber in each group.
Subtracting one number from another is finding what between them?
That is called the difference between them.
What is the number you are finding the square root of called?
The number of which the square root is to be found is called the "radicand." The symbol before the number is called the radical sign. ( √ ) E.g. √4 = 2, √25 = 5
What is the operation you can use to find how many in all when you combine equal groups?
If, by "equal groups", you mean groups of equal things, you get how many in all [the total number] by simply addingthem all together. Sometimes adding is called summation.If, by "equal groups", you mean equal-sized groups of things, you get how many in all by multiplying the number of groups by the number of things in each member group.The number of things in a group is also called its cardinality. Loosely, cardinality is the size of the group, or the number of elements ["things"] in the group.
