Notice that when you simplify a fraction, you divide the numerator and denominator by the same number, in the same way you multiply by the same number to find an equivalent fraction with a greater denominator.

The important thing to remember about these symbols is that the small end points towards the lesser number, and the larger (open) end is always on the side of the greater number. 230 is greater than 198, and the symbol is pointing in the wrong direction, with the open part facing the lesser number.

Notice that hundreds is the greatest place value now, so hundreds are added before the tens. (You can add in any order that you prefer.) Also notice that in Step 3, the value in the ones column for 350 is zero, but you still add that in to make sure everything is accounted for.

Look at the unit prices—the container on the right is actually a better deal, since the price per ounce is lower than the unit price of the container on the left.

There are two possibilities for these lines: they will either intersect at one point, or they will never intersect. When two lines intersect, four angles are formed. Understanding how these angles relate to each other can help you figure out how to measure them, even if you only have information about the size of one angle.

They help you to quantify physical space and also provide a foundation for more advanced mathematics. Perimeter is a measurement of the distance around a shape and area gives us an idea of how much surface the shape covers. Understanding how much space you have and learning how to fit shapes together exactly will help you when you paint a room, buy a home, remodel a kitchen, or build a deck.
