Activity:to calculate by selecting appropriate operations for solving problems [lo 1.8.10]

It is very important to really understand and remember the following; otherwise you will not be able to perform easy (or difficult) operations, so that you will get wrong answers!

SEQUENCE OF CALCULATIONS TAKE NOTE AND LEARN THE

FOLLOWING!

The order in which calculations are done is:

1. Brackets

2. Of

3. Division

4. Multiplication

5. Addition

6. Subtraction

The following rules are also applicable:

1. When the operation is + only or x only, e.g. 6 + 3 + 9 + 5:

work from LEFT TO RIGHT.

2. When there is only + and − , e.g. 6 − 3 + 2 − 4 + 9:

work from LEFT TO RIGHT

Thus: 6 − 3 à 3 + 2 à 5 − 4 à 1 + 9 = 10

3. When you only have x and ¸ is, e.g. 2 x 24 ¸ 4 x 10 ¸ 5:

Work from LEFT TO RIGHT

Thus: 2 x 24 à 48 ¸ 4 à 12 x 10 à 120 ¸ 5 = 24

1. Let’s see if you are able to apply the preceding knowledge correctly. Work with a partner and calculate the following:

1.1 f = 9 + 6 ¸ 2 − 7 _____________________________________________

1.2 c = 7 − (18 + 2) ¸ 5___________________________________________

1.3 k = 23 − 16 + 4 − 3___________________________________________

1.4 e = 36 ¸ 12 x 4 ¸ 2_____________________________________________

You may use your pocket calculator now, but it might not help if you do not know the correct sequence of operations. If you are uncertain, read the previous page again. Try to complete the following table correctly:

Calculate Key to sequence Answer
E.g. 15 + 6 × 2 (6 × 2) + 15 27
2.1 496 + 39 × 27
2.2 852 + (23 × 18) − 256
2.3 7 705  (67 + 48)
2.4 3 600  30 + 82 × 10
2.5 2 934 − 816 + 905 − 205

Time for peer-assessment

How well do you know the last part of the work that we have been doing? Explain the following to a partner. Your partner can then assess you by circling the relevant code:

Altogether unsure Not very sure Fairly sure Very sure
I can explain what multiples are. (LO 1.3) 1 2 3 4
I can explain what factors are. (LO 1.3) 1 2 3 4
I can explain what prime numbers are. (LO 1.3) 1 2 3 4
I can use the constant function on my pocket calculator to determine multiples. (LO 1.8) 1 2 3 4
I can explain what a palindrome is. (LO 1.3) 1 2 3 4
I can explain the properties of 1 and 0 to my friend. (LO 1.3) 1 2 3 4
I know the sequence of calculations and can apply it correctly. (LO 1.8) 1 2 3 4

Assessment

Learning Outcome 1: The learner will be able to recognise, describe and represent numbers and their relationships, and to count, estimate, calculate and check with competence and confidence in solving problems.

Assessment Standard 1.8: We know this when the learner estimates and calculates by selecting and using operations appropriate to solving problems that involve:

1.8.10: multiple operations on whole numbers with or without brackets.

why is communication effective
Dakolo Reply
Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.

Every time someone flushes a toilet in the apartment building, the person begins to jumb back automatically after hearing the flush, before the water temperature changes. Identify the types of learning, if it is classical conditioning identify the NS, UCS, CS and CR. If it is operant conditioning, identify the type of consequence positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement or punishment

because it helps many people around the world to understand how to interact with other people and understand them well, for example at work (job).

explain how nature and nurture affect the development and later the productivity of an individual.
Amesalu Reply
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.

I am taking this course because I am hoping that I could somehow learn more about my chosen field of interest and due to the fact that being a PsyD really ignites my passion as an individual the more I hope to learn about developing and literally explore the complexity of my critical thinking skills

What are the treatment for autism?
Magret Reply
hello. autism is a umbrella term. autistic kids have different disorder overlapping. for example. a kid may show symptoms of ADHD and also learning disabilities. before treatment please make sure the kid doesn't have physical disabilities like hearing..vision..speech problem. sometimes these

continue.. sometimes due to these physical problems..the diagnosis may be misdiagnosed. treatment for autism. well it depends on the severity. since autistic kids have problems in communicating and adopting to the environment.. it's best to expose the child in situations where the child
Jharna
child interact with other kids under doc supervision. play therapy. speech therapy. Engaging in different activities that activate most parts of the brain.. like drawing..painting. matching color board game. string and beads game. the more you interact with the child the more effective
Jharna
results you'll get.. please consult a therapist to know what suits best on your child. and last as a parent. I know sometimes it's overwhelming to guide a special kid. but trust the process and be strong and patient as a parent.
