Jumpstrategy

Wecanfindthesumof34and47byusinganumberline,beginningat34andmaking ajumpof40totheright,thenanother7totheright.Wecanseethat34 + 47 = 81.

Theorderinwhichwedoadditiondoesnotmatter;theanswerwillbethesame whicheverorderweuse.Sowecouldbeginat47andjump30totheright,then another4totherighttogetthesameresult.Thenumberlineshowsthat47 + 34 = 81.

Partitioning

Usingthe partitioning method,wecansplitthenumbersintotheirplacevalueparts, thenaddthemtogetherstartingwiththelargestpartfirst.

Example1

a MikeandSallyare16and21.Whatistheircombinedage?

b Twooldcoinsare347and228yearsold.Whatistheircombinedage?

Solution

a 16 + 21 = 10 + 20 + 6 + 1

37years (Addtens,thenones.)

b 347 + 228 = 300 + 200 + 40 + 20 + 7 + 8 = 500 + 60 + 15 = 575years (Addhundreds,thentens, thenones.)

Compensation

Wecanaddmorethanisneeded,thensubtracttheextrathatwasaddedon.This strategyiscalled compensation

Example2

Add43and29. a

Solution

a 43 + 29 = 43 + 30 1 = 73 1 = 72

b 438 + 347 = 440 + 350 2 3 = 790 5 = 785

Example5

Findtheprimefactorisationof999.

Solution

9isafactor,as999 = 9 × 111

9 = 3 × 3

111isdivisibleby3because1 + 1 + 1 = 3

Divide111by3: 3 37 ) 11 21

111 = 3 × 37and37isaprimenumber.

Sotheprimefactorisationis:999 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 37

Perimeter

Theword‘perimeter’comesfromtwoGreekwords: peri,meaning‘around’and metron,meaning‘measure’.Soperimetermeansthemeasureordistancearound something.Itisthelengtharoundtheedge.

Imaginewalkingaroundtheedgeofabasketballcourtandcountingeachmetreas youpaceitout.Youwouldwalk15metres,28metres,15metres,then28metres again,asyouwalkedallfoursidesoftherectangle.

Theperimeterofthebasketballcourtisthesumoftheselengths.

Perimeter = 15 + 28 + 15 + 28 = 86metres

Amoreefficientwaytocalculatetheperimeterofarectangle,wouldbetodoublethe lengthsofthetwoadjacentsidesandaddthem.

Perimeter =(2 × 15)+(2 × 28) = 30 + 56 = 86metres

Example8

WhenLachlanwasbornheweighed3585grams. Howmanykilogramsisthat?

Solution

Weneedtodividethegramsby1000tofindthenumberofkilograms.

Solution

1000mg = 1g.Toconvertmilligramstograms,divideby1000.
