    1 - 1 Real Numbers األعداد الحقيقيّة

    • Real numbers are used in everyday life to describe quantities such as speed, area, prices, age, temperature, and population.

    • Real numbers are usually represented by symbols as in the following numbers:

    2SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

  • • The types of numbers that make up the real number system are:

    Natural or Counting Numbers ( )أو أعداد الَعـدْ (األعداد الطبيعية (= {1, 2, 3, 4, …}

    Whole Numbers ( الُكـليّةاألعداد (= {0, 1, 2, 3, …}

    Integers ( ) األعداد الصحيحة= {…, ‒ 3, ‒ 2, ‒ 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, …}

    Rational Numbers ( األعداد النسبيّة (

    • A number is classified as rational if it can be expressed as a fraction.

    • The following types of numbers can be written as fractions and hence are rational numbers:

  • Irrational Numbers ( ) الالنسبيّةاألعداد

    • A number that cannot be written as a fraction is considered irrational.

    • An irrational number is a decimal that doesn’t infinitely repeat itself yet never terminates.

    • The following numbers are examples on irrational numbers:

  • 1 - 2 The Number Line ألعدادخط ا

    • The set of all rational numbers combined with the set of all irrational numbers gives us the set of real numbers.

    • The real numbers are modeled using a number line, as shown below.

    • Each point on the line represents a real number, and every real number is represented by a point on the line.

    • Negative numbers represent distances to the left of zero, and positive numbers are distances to the right.

    • The arrows on the end indicate that it keeps going forever in the leftand right directions.

    addition (has closure).

    • If you add two odd numbers, the answer is not an odd number.• (3 + 5 = 8), therefore, the set of odd numbers is not closed under

    addition (no closure).

    1 - 9 Factors الـعوامل

    • Factors of a whole number are all whole numbers that it can be divided by exactly.

    • In other words, any two whole numbers are factors of the product produced by multiplying them.

    • The factors of 12 are {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12} since 12 is divisible by all of them:

    1 12 = 12, then 1 and 12 are factors of 12, and3 4 = 12, then 3 and 4 are factors of 12, and2 6 = 12, then 2 and 6 are factors of 12

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

  • 25

    1 - 10 Common Factors الـعوامل المشتركة

    • A common factor of two or more numbers is a number that is a factor of all them.

    • For example, to find the common factors of 12 and 18 we need to write all the factors of each of them and then find which of these factors are factors of 12 and 18 at the same time:

    So, the common factor of 12 and 18 are {1, 2, 3, 6}

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

    26

    1 - 11 The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) العامل المشترك األكبر

    • The greatest common factor (GCF) of two or more numbers is the largest factor that is common to these numbers.

    • For the previous example, 6 is the largest factor of all factors common to 12 and 18:

    So, the GCF of 12 and 18 is 6

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

  • Example 5: Find the GCF of 24 and 32.

    27

    Solution:

    The common factors are {1, 2, 4, 8} and 8 is the largest one

    So, the GCF of 24 and 32 is 8

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

    28

    1 - 12 Multiples الـمضاعفات• Multiples of a number are all products produced by multiplying the number

    by the other whole numbers.

    • A whole number is a multiple of itself since it is equal to 1 times that number.

    • A whole number is a multiple of its factors.

    • The multiples of 3 can be found by multiplying 3 by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, … and as shown below:

    3 1 = 33 2 = 63 3 = 93 4 = 123 5 = 153 6 = 18, and so on

    So, the multiples of 3 are {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, …}

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

  • 29

    1 - 13 Common Multiples الـمضاعفات المشتركة

    • Common multiples of two or more numbers are all multiples that are common to these numbers.

    • To find the common multiples of two or more numbers, the multiples of each number are listed and then the common ones are specified as the common multiples.

    • For example, to find the first three common multiples of 3 and 5, we write the multiples of each of them:

    So, the first three common multiples of 3 and 5 are {15, 30, 45}

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

    30

    1 - 14 The Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) المضاعف المشترك األصغر

    • The lowest common multiple (LCM) of two or more numbers is the smallest (first) factor that is common to these numbers.

    • For the previous example, 15 is the first multiple of all multiples which are common to 3 and 5:

    Therefore, the LCM of 3 and 5 is 15

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

  • Example 6: Find the LCM of 3 and 8.

    31

    Solution:

    The first common multiple is 24

    So, the LCM of 3 and 8 is 24

    1 - 15 Order of Operations تسلسل تنفيذ العمليات الحسابية

    • When a problem contains a number of operations, a certain order should be followed in carrying out these operations.

    • This order is commonly referred to as BODMAS which is the acronym of Brackets, Order, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction and as shown below:

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

  • Example 7: Simplify the following: (a) 6 4 3 (b) 6 2 4(c) 6 2 4 (d) 10 – 3 6 + 102 (6 1) 4

    33

    Solution: (a) 6 4 3

    = 6 12 (multiplication)= 18 (then addition)

    (b) 6 2 4 = 3 4 (division / multiplication, left to right)= 12

    (c) 6 2 4 = 12 4 (division / multiplication, left to right)= 3

    = 10 – 3 6 + 100 7 4 (powers next)

    = 10 – 18 + 100 28 (multiplication)

    = – 8 + 100 28 (addition / subtraction, left to right)

    = 92 28 (addition / subtraction, left to right)

    1 - 16 Absolute Value القيمة المطلقة

    • The absolute value (or modulus) of a real number is the non-negative(positive) value of that number.

    • The absolute value is usually represented by writing the number inside two vertical bars | |.

    • Absolute value is used when considering the magnitude of something regardless to whether it is positive or negative.

    • On the number line, the absolute value of a number is the distancefrom that number to the origin (zero).

    SET 1 - Chapter 1 GFP - Sohar University

    Example 8: Simplify the following: (a) | 5 | + 6 – 2 (b) | – 5 | + 6 – 2 (c) | 4 (– 6) + 5 | + 6

    Solution:

    (a) | 5 | + 6 – 2= 5 + 6 – 2= 11 – 2 = 9

    (b) | – 5 | + 6 – 2= 5 + 6 – 2
