How much crown molding will Greg install in the room? Keep the common denominator. Find the LCD by listing the multiples of each denominator. Change the numerator to reflect the new denominator. What is done to the bottom must be done to the top of a fraction. Find the LCD. Twelve cannot be subtracted from 10; therefore, 1 must be borrowed from the whole number, making it 4, and the borrowed 1 must be added to the fraction.
Now the whole number and the numerator can be subtracted. We did this because it is one whole and it is the same denominator. Alan is making a table. How much of the board will Alan need to cut off? How much milk will McKenna have left? To change an improper fraction into a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator.
The quotient becomes the whole number. The remainder becomes the numerator, and the denominator stays the same. Reduce the product by using the greatest common factor:.

How many sundaes can Danny make? She is making bows for her bridesmaids. How many bridesmaids does Jenny have for her wedding? If the decimal does not terminate, continue to the thousandths place and then round to the hundredths place.
Example: 7. However, if the number in the thousandths place is less than 5, do not round up the number in the hundredths place. Change the fraction into a division problem. Add a decimal point after the 3 and add two zeros. The answer is a terminating decimal a decimal that is not continuous ; therefore adding additional zeros is not necessary.
Example 2 Change to a decimal. Add a decimal point after the 5 and add two zeros. If there is still a remainder, add another zero to the dividend and bring it down. The decimal terminates at the thousandths place. Example 3 Change to a decimal. After the 2, add a decimal point and two zeros. The decimal continues does not terminate ; therefore round to the hundredths place: 0.
It can also be written as. The line is placed over the number that repeats. Example 4 Change to a decimal. After the 3, add a decimal and two zeros. Place the whole number in front of the decimal: 2. Steps Knowing place values makes it very simple to change decimals to fractions. The last digit is located in the tenths place; therefore, the 9 becomes the numerator. Example 2 Change 0. The 2 is located in the hundredths place.
The numerator becomes 2, and becomes the denominator. Reduce the fraction. Example 3 Change 0. Always look at the last digit in the decimal.
In this example the 5 is located in the hundredths place. The numerator becomes 25, and becomes the denominator. Example 4 Change 3. The 5 is located in the thousandths place. The numerator becomes 55, and 1, becomes the denominator. The 3 is still the whole number. Proportion: Two ratios that have equal values. As a fraction: Using a colon: In words: 5 to 12 Proportions can be written two ways.
NOTE: The numerator is listed first, then the denominator known as the foil method. Example 1 Change the decimal to a ratio. Change the decimal to a fraction. The numerator 1 is the first listed number. Then write the colon. Finally, place the denominator 40 after the colon. Example 2 Change the fraction to a ratio. The numerator 5 is the first listed number.
Finally, place the denominator 6 after the colon. Example 3 Solve the proportion find the value of x. Rewrite the proportion as a fraction this might help to see the solution. The answer is Example 4 Solve the proportion find the value of x. Rewrite the proportion as a fraction. The value for x is Example 5 Solve the proportion find the value of x.
The answer to x is Solve the following for x: 3. How much will it cost John to buy five bags of chips? The recipe states that 4 cups of sugar will make cookies. How many cups of sugar are needed to make 90 cookies? Example 1 Change the decimal to a percent: 0. Move the decimal point to the right of the hundredths place two places. Put the percent sign behind the new number. Example 2 Change the decimal to a percent: 0.
Move the decimal point to the right of the hundredths place always two places! It is still a percent; it is just a very small percent. Example 3 Change the percent to a decimal: Move the decimal two spaces away from the percent sign to the left. Drop the percent sign; it is no longer a percent, but a decimal. The decimal point is not visible, but is always located after the last number. Move the decimal two spaces away from the percent sign toward the left. Drop the percent sign; the number is no longer a percent, but a decimal.
Change the fraction into a division problem and solve. Move the decimal behind the hundredths place in the quotient. Place a percent sign after the new number. Percent formula: Using this formula will help in all percent problems in which there is an unknown solving for x. Example 1 What is 7 out of 8 expressed as a percent? Rewrite the problem using the percent formula. We are looking for the whole because of is indicating an unknown number.
What is 15 out of 75 as a percent? What is 2 out of 50 as a percent? What is 20 out of as a percent? What is Military time uses the numbers 00 through 23 to represent the hour in a hour period.
The minutes and seconds in hour clock and military time are expressed the same way. For example, AM hour clock time converts to military time. The zero is not needed when converting 10 AM or 11 AM. If the time is after noon, simply add 12 to the hour number. Midnight, or 12 AM, is converted to Noon, or 12 PM, is converted to Table summarizes the equivalents between military time and hour clock time.
Military time is written with a colon between the minutes and seconds just as in the 12 hour clock. It can also be expressed with a colon between the hours and the minutes. Constant: A number that cannot change. Expression: A mathematical sentence containing constants and variables i. Exponent: A number or symbol placed above and after another number or symbol a superscript or subscript , indicating the number of times to multiply. Algebra is a process that involves variables and constants.
A variable is a letter that represents an unknown quantity. A constant is a number that cannot change. Using the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, we can use algebra to find the value of unknown quantities. Two algebra concepts discussed in this section will be evaluating expressions and solving equations for a specific variable. If a number has no sign e. Substitute the numbers into the given expression.
Use parentheses when inserting numbers into an expression. Subtract 5 from each side of the equation. Divide both sides by 4. Example 4 Steps 1. Add 4 to both sides. A negative divided by a negative is a positive. We live in an age of instant telecommunication and think nothing of it. Yet, it is the written word that allows a person to record information that can travel across time and distance, to be examined and reexamined.
In the health care setting, this is especially true for the health care provider as well as other members of the health care team as this is how information is shared among members of the health care team. A clear understanding of all client information ensures better health care management for the client. Any student wishing to enter the health care profession must have the ability to read and understand the written word. In longer passages the reader might find it helpful to count the number of paragraphs used to describe what is believed to be the main idea statement.
If the majority of paragraphs include information about the main idea statement the reader has chosen, the reader is probably correct. However, if the answer chosen by the reader is mentioned in only one paragraph, the main idea that was chosen is probably just a detail. Another helpful hint in identifying main ideas is to read a paragraph and then stop and summarize that paragraph.
This type of active reading helps the reader focus on the content and can lessen the need to reread the entire passage several times. Some students find that visualizing as they read helps them remember details and stay focused.
They picture the information they are reading as if it were being projected on a big-screen TV. If you do not already do this, try it. Informal classroom experiments have proved that students who visualize while reading comprehension tests easily outscore their counterparts who do not visualize.
HESI Hint Main ideas can be found in the beginning, in the middle, or at the end of a paragraph or passage. Always check the introduction and conclusion for the main idea. Finally, not all main ideas are stated. Identify unstated or implied main ideas by looking specifically at the details, examples, causes, and reasons given.
Main idea Some experts like to compare the main idea with an umbrella covering all or most of the details in a paragraph or passage. The chosen main idea can be tested for accuracy by asking whether the other details will fit under the umbrella. The idea of an umbrella also helps visualize how broad a statement the main idea can be.
Without these details, the reader would not be able to evaluate whether the writer has made his or her case, nor would the reader find the passage as interesting. In addition to examples, facts and statistics may be used. Usually the reader can discover clues to help identify details because often an author uses transition words such as one, next, another, first, or finally to indicate that a detail is being provided.
The reader can, of course, stop and use a dictionary or the Thesaurus for these words. However, this is usually neither the most efficient nor the most practical way to approach the unknown words.
There are other options the reader can use to find the meanings of unknown words, and these involve using context clues. The phrase context clue refers to the information provided by the author in the words or sentences surrounding the unknown word or words. Some of the easiest context clues to recognize are as follows: 1. Definition—The author puts the meaning of the word in parentheses or states the definition in the following sentence.
Synonym—The author gives the reader another word that means the same or nearly the same as the unknown word. Antonym—The author gives a word that means the opposite of the unknown word. HESI Hint The reader needs to watch for clue words such as although, but, and instead, which sometimes signal that an antonym is being used.
Restatement —The author restates the unknown word in a sentence using more familiar words. Examples —The author gives examples that more clearly help the reader understand the meaning of the unknown word.
Explanation —The author gives more information about the unknown word, which better explains the meaning of the word. Word structure —Sometimes simply knowing the meanings of basic prefixes, suffixes, and root words can help the reader make an educated guess about an unknown word.
HESI Hint When being tested on finding the meaning of a word in the context of a passage, look carefully at the words and sentences surrounding the unknown word. The context clues are usually there for the reader to uncover. Once the correct meaning has been chosen, test that meaning in the passage. It should make sense, and the meaning should be supported by the other sentences in the passage or paragraph.
Readers read to be entertained, and authors write to entertain. Readers choose to read for information, and writers write to inform. Who is the intended audience? Why is this being written? Connotation refers to the emotions or feelings that the reader attaches to words.
The tone of this article is positive because the words inspired and visionary are positive words. The reader can determine that the tone is unfavorable because of the words the writer chose. Typically, articles with obvious positive or negative tones and connotations will be found on the opinion or editorial page of the newspaper. Articles or books written to inform should be less biased, and information should be presented in factual format and with sufficient supporting data to allow readers to form their own opinions on the event that occurred.
The words are the key clues. An assumption is a set of beliefs that the writer has about the subject. To distinguish between fact and opinion, the reader must understand the common definitions of those words. A fact is considered something that can be proved either right or wrong.
For example, at the time Columbus sailed for the New World, it was considered a scientific fact that the world was flat. Columbus proved the scientists wrong. An opinion is a statement that cannot be proved. Word choices that include measurable data and colors are considered factual or concrete words. If the writer uses evaluative or judgmental words good, better, best, worst , it is considered a statement of opinion. Abstract words love, hate, envy are also used in statements of opinion.
These include ideas or concepts that cannot be measured. Statements that deal with probabilities or speculations about future events are also considered opinions. An inference is an educated guess or conclusion drawn by the reader based on the available facts and information.
Although this may sound difficult and sometimes is, it is done frequently. Determining inferences is a skill often referred to as reading between the lines. The key to making logical inferences is to be sure the inferences are supportable by evidence or facts presented in the reading. This often requires reading the passage twice so that details can be identified.
Yet this skill can be mastered easily when the following three rules are used: 1. The summary should include the main ideas from the beginning, middle, and end of the passage.
The summary is usually presented in sequence; however, occasionally it may be presented in a different order. The summary must have accurate information. Sometimes a test summary will deliberately include false information.
In that case, the critical reader will automatically throw out that test option. Summary questions will typically take the longest for the student to answer because to answer them correctly the student must go through each summary choice and locate the related information or main idea in the passage itself.
Double-checking the summary choices is one way to verify that the reader has chosen the best summary. If the summary choice presents information that is inaccurate or out of order, the reader will automatically eliminate those choices. HESI Hint Remember, the summary should include the main ideas of the passage, possibly with some major supporting details. It is a shortened version of the passage that includes all the important information, eliminating the unnecessary and redundant.
As health care costs go up and health care needs increase with age, Medicare is especially important to seniors.
Medicare Part A provides assistance with inpatient hospital costs, whereas Medicare Part B helps pay for doctor services and outpatient care. In , Congress enacted Medicare Part D, which today helps many seniors pay for the cost of prescription drugs. Before the enactment of Medicare Part D, many seniors faced financial hardship in regard to purchasing prescription drugs. Today, it is no longer a question of whether to pay for housing and food or prescription drugs, but which Part D plan provides the best prescription coverage.
Although Part D has alleviated many uncertainties, seniors still have concerns. Not all prescription drugs are covered in each plan provided by Part D. Each plan has its own list of covered drugs that can change, requiring seniors to possibly switch coverage every year.
Seniors who suffer from multiple medical conditions may not be able to find a plan that covers all their prescribed medications. A coverage gap is a temporary limit on what the prescription plan will pay. Medicare helps provide seniors with some of the best health care in the world.
Yet, the services do come at a huge financial cost. It might behoove younger generations to consider preventive care to improve their own golden years. The high cost of prescription drugs is a difficult financial burden for seniors.
Medicare Part D has many problems and no benefits. Senior citizens enrolled in Medicare Part D have no prescription drug concerns. Which of the following is not listed as a detail in the passage?
By the year the number of seniors over the age of 65 will increase. Medicare Parts A and B help pay for hospital costs and doctor services. Seniors are required to enroll in Medicare Part D. What is the meaning of the word behoove as used in the last paragraph? To be necessary B.
To be responsible for C. To increase D. To tell others 4. To inform people how to enroll in Medicare B. To persuade seniors to enroll in Medicare Part D C. To analyze the provisions of Medicare Part D 5. Identify the overall tone of the essay. Argumentative B. Cautious C. Sympathetic D. Pessimistic 6. Which of the following statements is an opinion? Senior citizens pay a monthly insurance premium for Part D coverage.
The high cost of prescription drugs has made life difficult for seniors. In , Congress enacted Medicare legislation that provides prescription drug coverage.
Not all prescription drugs are covered in each plan provided by Medicare Part D. Which statement would not be inferred by the reader? Most Americans will never have a need for Medicare and its various parts. Some age-related illnesses might be averted with preventive care. Some seniors could find themselves changing their Part D coverage yearly.
Choose the best summary of the passage. Americans are growing older every year and are requiring more and more health care. The three parts of Medicare can ease the financial burden of seniors. Prescription drug care provided through Part D makes life much easier for seniors. Even though there are concerns about Medicare, Part D ensures that all seniors have the medical coverage they need. Medicare Parts A, B, and D help seniors pay for hospital costs, doctor and outpatient services, and prescription drugs.
