Chapter 1: (Yu Hin, Qayyum, Bryan lee)

DEFINITIONS:

MULTIPLE 
The result of multiplying a number by an integer (not a fraction).

Examples: 
12 is a multiple of 3, because 3 × 4 = 12
-6 is a multiple of 3, because 3 × -2 = -6
But 7 is NOT a multiple of 3 


INDEX NOTATION














PRIME FACTORISATION
"Prime Factorisation" is finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number.
"Factors" are the numbers you multiply together to get another number:
factors

Chapter 1 (Qayyum)

Definitions:

Multiples: Multiples are numbers that are divisible by a certain number without any remainder.
eg. 8/2=4
Since there is no remainder 8 is a multiple of 2.

Prime factorisation: is multiplying prime numbers only to get the original number.
eg. 28=7*4
but 4 is not a prime so have to break it down further
28=7*2*2

Index notation:Is to simplify an equation that includes squaring or cubing etc. etc.........
eg. instead of writing 
2*2*2
one can simply write what is in the above diagram.

Chapter1: Nehal Janakraj, Eunice Koo

DEFINITION:

FACTORS:

Factors are numbers you can multiply together to get another number:
Example:
2 and 3 are factors of 6, because 2X3=6


MULTIPLES:

The result of multiplying a number by an integer(not a fraction)
Example:
12 is a multiple of 3, because 3X4=12


PRIME FACTORISATION:
"Prime Factorisation" is finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number.


INDEX NOTATION:

The exponent (or index or power) of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication


example:
102 means 10 × 10 = 100

PRIME FACTORISATION


Chapter 1: Sabrina, Myat Noe, Beverly

DEFINITIONS: 

MULTIPLE =   

A number or quantity that when multiplied with another produces a given number or expression. (dictionary)

product of a quantity by integer (WolframAlpha)

FACTOR =

number or quantity that when multiplied with another produces a given number or expression. (dictionary)

Any of the numbers that form a product when multiplied together (WolframAlpha)


INDEX NOTATION =

In mathematics and computer programmingIndex notation is used to specify the elements of an array of numbers. (Wikipedia)

The exponent (or index or power) of a number says
how many times to use the number in a multiplication. (mathisfun.com)


PRIME FACTORISATION =

In number theoryinteger factorization or prime factorization is the decomposition of a composite number into smaller non-trivial divisors, which when multiplied together equal the original integer. (wikipedia)

Prime Factorization is finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number. (mathsisfun.com)
