Arrange numbers from the smallest value to the largest value.
3- Arrange the numbers in ascending order.
a) 632101, 63211, 750310 , (-321).
(-321) , 63211 , 632101 , 750310
b) (-7732), (-982), 98, (-10000).
(-10000) , (-7732) , (-982) , 98
š Quick Strategy for Negative & Positive Numbers
āNegative numbers are always smaller than zero and all positive numbers.
āFor negative numbers, the further away from zero to the left, the smaller it is: (-10000) < (-7732) < (-982) < (-321)
āFor positive numbers, count digits first: 5-digit number 63,211 is smaller than 6-digit numbers 632,101 and 750,310.

1.4Rounding
Which of the numbers in the examples below are rounded?
Wind speed is around 100 k/hr.
ā Rounded (around 100)
About 30000 people are expected to participate.
ā Rounded (About 30000)
Today's temperature is 36.4 c°.
ā Exact / Not rounded (36.4)
I am 132 cm tall
ā Exact / Not rounded (132 cm)
Exercises
1- Is the number 79842 closer to 79000 or to 79800? Why?
It is closer to 79800 because the difference is only 42 (79842 - 79800 = 42), while the difference from 79000 is 842.
2- Round these numbers to the nearest hundred.
a) 248
200
b) 767
800
c) 4871
4900
3- Round these numbers to the nearest thousand.
a) 5291
5000
b) 17820
18000
c) 26684
27000

1.5Powers and Roots
The power of a number means the number of times the number is multiplied by itself.
It is written as a small number to upper right of the base number.
base ā42⬠power
42 = 4 Ć 4 = 16
In words 42 could be "4 to the power of 2"
or simply
4 squared
So, when the power = 2 we use the word "squared".
Note:
Another name of power is exponent
Exercises
1- Complete the following:
Then 52 = 5 Ć 5 = 25, In words: Five squared.
a)
62 =6Ć6=36
b)
72 =7Ć7=49
c)
82 =8Ć8=64
d)
92 =9Ć9=81
e)
102 =10Ć10=100
f)
112 =11Ć11=121
g)
122 =12Ć12=144

āļø Negative vs. Positive Integer Comparator
Compare any two numbers to see which is greater. Remember: For negative numbers, (-10000) is smaller than (-321) because it is further left on the number line!
<
Explanation: -10000 < -321 because -10000 is much further to the left from zero.
