When would you get a smaller product when multiplying two rational numbers?
The product of two rational numbers, X and Y, is smaller than either of them if both are between 0 and 1.
What are the rules for multiplying and dividing positive and negative fractions?
negative times negative equals positive negative times positive equals.....you subtract the bigger number by the smaller number and keep the sign of the bigger number positive times positive equals positive im pretty sure thats right but i would make sure with your math teacher abt the second one i said
What is used to indicate multiplying a number by itself an certain number of times?
An exponent is used to indicate that a number is multiplied by itself a specified number of times. For example, to multiply 4 by itself 9 times, you would write 49.
Which number is greater 0.66 or 0.667?
0.667 because 0.66 would be the same as 0.660 which as we know would be smaller.
What number equals ten to the fourth power?
when multiplying "to the power of" with tens, you just add up the zeros, so 10 to the fourth power would be 10,000.
To mutiply a number by its self?
Multiplying a number by itself will result in the squared exponent of the number. Which its base number would be its square root.
Why add 0 at end of result when multiplying by ten?
Because it would remain the same number if it was multiplied by just the 1.
How do you multiply a fraction by a negative number?
Using the same principles as multiplying a negative whole number by a positive whole number, where the result would be a negative, the product of a (positive) fraction and a negative whole number would equal the product of the two, with the minus sign included. For example, 1/2 x -4 = -2. The same rule can be applied the other way around, multiplying a negative fraction by a positive number would produce the same result.
What is found by adding the same number to the previous term?
Adding the same number to a previous number would double the answer. Multiplying by 2 would achieve the same doubling result. What is meant by 'term'?Found by adding the same number to the previous term
When multiplying a fraction by a whole number how do you rewrite the whole number?
When multiplying a fraction by a whole number you would rewrite it as a mixed number or convert the whole number to that number over one!
What would happen to the brightness if you get a smaller bulb?
If smaller means less power for the same voltage, then a smaller bulb would result in less brightness. If smaller means less voltage for the same power, then a smaller builb would result in more brightness.
When subtracting does the bigger number have to be on the top?
the bigger number needs to be on top if you stack you're numbers
What is the smallest number mulipleyed by it self with 3 prime factors?
That would be the result of multiplying the smallest prime number by itself: 2 x 2 x 2.
When would you get a smaller product when multiplying two rational numbers?
The product of two rational numbers, X and Y, is smaller than either of them if both are between 0 and 1.
Does multiplication always make things bigger?
This is a pretty technical question. The answer will vary depending on your grade level.If you are talking about magnitude (i.e., ignore the negative) than the answer is sort of (I'll explain further down).If you are allowing negative numbers,Start with 2, and multiply it by -1. 2 x -1 = -2 which is smaller than 2.Now, what about multiplying by a number between 0 and 1 (0.5 for example).Start with 4 and multiply by .5 to get 2. 2 is smaller than 4.However, you could argue that by multiplying by a decimal, you are in addition to multiplying, dividing which is why the number is reduced. By the same logic, division would always result in a number of lower magnitude. That would be the side I would tend to take as well, so:Multiplication always increases the magnitude of a number, but does notnecessarilymake it bigger. Division always reduces the magnitude of a number, but does not necessarily make it larger.I should also mention, this is controversial. People can make the argument either way (in regards to multiplication vs division).
What is the greatest number of times you would regroup if you were multiplying a three digit number by a two digit number?
6 times
