I'm trying to mentally summarize the names of the operands for basic operations. I've got this so far: Addition: Augend + Addend = Sum. Subtraction: Minuend - Subtrahend = Difference. Multiplicati...

I'm looking for clear mathematical rules on rounding a number to n n decimal places. Everything seems perfectly clear for positive numbers. Here is for example what I found on math.about.com : Rule One Determine what your rounding digit is and look to the right side of it. If that digit is 4, 3, 2, 1, 4, 3, 2, 1, or 0 0, simply drop all digits to the right of it. Rule Two Determine what your ...

Jan 10, 2020 · Just to clarify: any finite set of real numbers can be viewed as part of an arithmetic progression,. My example gave an infinite set which is clearly not part of an arithmetic progression, which can nonetheless support a probability distribution.

How does someone mathematically round a number to its nearest integer? For example 1.2 would round down to 1 and 1.7 would round up to 2

I have attached an image showing a Modulo 2 binary division. I can roughly understand the working below which is using XOR calculation but I am not sure how the answer (in red) is being computed ...

Are there some good overviews of basic formulas about addition, multiplication and exponentiation of cardinals (preferably available online)?

10 How can I solve quadratic equations using modular arithmetic? E.g. 2x2 + 8x + 2 = 0 (mod 23) 2 x 2 + 8 x + 2 = 0 (mod 23) N.b. I have changed the figures from those in my homework question because I don't want a solution I want to understand the process. Consequently the example I gave might not have solutions.

Jun 18, 2018 · An arithmetic progression (AP) or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant. I'm having doubts here, if I'm following this definition correctly, then the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant in an AP. Can I say, that even 2 2 terms can form an AP?

By no-changer I refer, of course, to the unit element. That this can be added/multiplied to anything without resulting in a change should be accepted. I am unsure wether this approach helps understanding the hierarchy of arithmetic operators or wether you need the hierarchy for understanding the approach.
