Title: Classifying Numbers |
Grade: 6-a Lesson: S1-L1 |
Explanation: The best way to understand algebra is by looking at some examples. Take turns and read each example for easy understanding. |
Examples:
Identify the classification(s) for the number \$5/6\$.
Step 1a
|
|
The given number is \$5/6\$. |
|
Explanation: Here we write the given data. |
Step 1b
|
|
In this case, the number \$ (5/6) \$ is a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction of two integers where the denominator is not zero. |
|
Explanation: Identify the appropriate classification(s) based on the properties of the number. |
Identify the classification(s) for the number \$\sqrt 3 \$.
Step 2a
|
|
The given number is \$\sqrt 3\$. |
|
Explanation: Here we write the given data. |
Step 2b
|
|
Real numbers include all rational and irrational numbers. Since \$ \sqrt(3) \$ is a non-negative, non-repeating, non-terminating decimal, it is a real number. |
|
Explanation: Determining whether a given value is a real number or not. |
Step 2c
|
|
Assume \$\sqrt(3) \$ is rational. |
|
Explanation: Verifying it as an irrational number. Therefore, \$ \sqrt(3) \$ is both a real number and an irrational number. |
Identify the classification(s) for the number \$-3\$.
Step 3a
|
|
The given number is \$-3\$ |
|
Explanation: Here we write the given data. |
Step 3b
|
|
Since −3 represents a point on the number line and is a valid numerical value, it is a real number. |
|
Explanation: Identifying it as a Real Number. |
Step 3c
|
|
An integer is a whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero. For instance, -3 is a negative integer. Therefore, −3 is both a real number and an integer. |
|
Explanation: Here we Identify it as an Integer and a real number. |
