LECTURE 1
Properties of Operations on the set of Integers
Throughout the discussion, assume that the numbers represented by the letters a and b
are integers. Now, let us start our discussion on the different Properties.
1. Closure Property
Two integers that are added and multiplied remain as integers. The set of integers is closed under
addition and multiplication.
• The Closure Property of Addition for real numbers states that if a and b are real numbers, then a + b is a
unique real number.
Example 1: Adding two real numbers produces another real number.
15
+ 16
21
The number "21" is a real number
•The Closure Property of Multiplication for real numbers states that if a and b are real numbers, then a × b is a
unique real number.
Example 2: Multiplying two real numbers produces another real number
26
X12
52
26
312
The number "312" is a real number.
2. Commutative Property
Changing the order of two numbers that are either being added or multiplied does not change the value.
a+b=b+a
ab = ba
Examples:
1. 2 + 3 = 3 + 2, since 2 + 3 = 5 and also 3 + 2 = 5. 2. (-16) +( -5) = (-5) + (-16)
3. 100 + 99 = 99 + 100 4. (2) (3) = (3) (2), since (2)(3) = 6 and also (3)(2) = 6.
5. (-4) (-15) = (-15) (-4) 6. (10) (25) = (25) (10)
Note: Subtraction and Division are not commutative.

3. Associative Property
Changing the grouping of numbers that are either being added or multiplied does not change its value.
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
(ab) c = a (bc)
Examples:
1. (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4) 2. (10 + 5) + 8 = 10 + (5 + 8)
Checking: Checking:
(2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4) (10 + 5) + 8 = 10 + (5 + 8)
5+4=2+7 15 + 8 = 10 + 13
9=9 23 = 23

3. (4 x 3) x 5 = 4 x (3 x 5) 4. (2 x 10) x 4 = 2 x (10 x 4)
Checking: Checking:
(4 x 3) x 5 = 4 x (3 x 5) (2 x 10) x 4 = 2 x (10 x 4)
12 x 5 = 4 x 15 20 x 4 = 2 x 40
60 = 60 80 = 80

Note: Subtraction and Division are not associative.

4. Distributive Property
When two numbers have been added/subtracted and then multiplied by a factor, the result will be the same
when each number is multiplied by the factor and the products are then added / subtracted.
a (b + c) = ab + ac
a (b - c) = ab - ac
Examples:
1. 2(3 + 4) = (2)(3) + (2)(4) 2. 5(8 - 3) = (5)(8) - (5)(3)
Checking: Checking:
2(3 + 4) = (2)(3) + (2) 5(8 - 3) = (5)(8) - (5)(3)
(4) 5(5) = 40 - 15
2(7) = 6 + 8 25 = 25
14 = 14
5. Identity Property
A. Additive Identity - states that the sum of any number and 0 is the given number. Zero is the additive
identity.
a+0=a
Examples:
1. 4 + 0 = 4 2. -10 + 0 = -10 3. 99 + 0 = 99
B. Multiplicative Identity - states that the product of any number and 1 is the given number, a • 1 = a.
One is the multiplicative identity.
a•1=a
Examples:
1. 12 x 1 = 12 2. -32 x 1 = -32 3. 99 x 1 = 99
6. Inverse Property
A. Additive Inverse - states that the sum of any number and its additive inverse is zero. The additive
inverse of a positive number is the negative of that number, that is
a + (-a) = 0.
And the additive inverse of a negative number is the positive of that number, that is
-a + a = 0.
Examples:
1. 9 + (-9) = 0 2. -58 + 58 = 0 3. 99 + (-99) = 0

or reciprocal is 1. The multiplicative inverse of the number 𝑎 is 1𝑎.

B. Multiplicative Inverse Property states that the product of any number and its multiplicative inverse

Examples:
1. 6 • 1/6 = 1 2. -22 • (−1/22) = 1 3. 4/7 • 7/4 = 28/28 = 1 4. 5/8 • 8/5 = 40/40 = 1
LECTURE 2 FRACTIONS AND DECIMALS
Rational number – is a number represented by either terminating or repeating
nonterminating decimal.

Example 1: Express 4 as decimal.
Solution: Divide numerator by denominator.
0.75
4 √ 3.00 In the division process, it shows that
28 ¾ is equal to 0.75, which is
20 terminating decimal.

Example 2. Express as decimal.
9
Solution:
0.444 In the division process, it shows that there cannot be a zero
9 √ 4.000 remainder. The quotient is repeating, nonterminating decimal. The
36
fraction 4/9 is equal to 0.444. A bar (vinculum) is used over the
40
36 digits or block of digits that repeats. The digits or block of digits that
40 repeats is called repetend.

Decimal to Fraction
Example 1: Change 0.75 to fraction.
Solution: 0.75 is read as 75 Reduce 75/100 to lowest term by dividing the
hundredths or 75/100. numerator and denominator by its greatest common

Example 2: Change 1.125 to fraction.
Solution: 1.125 is read as 1 and one hundred twenty – five thousandths.
Therefore,

Key Points:
 A terminating decimal is a decimal with a finite number of digits after the decimal point.
 A repeating decimal is a decimal that has a digit or a set of digits that repeats over and over
again without ending.
 A non – terminating decimal is a decimal with a number of infinite digits after the decimal point.
