= ......................... ÷ ..................

= ..................

DID YOU KNOW?

We can also break up the divisor into factors :

E.g. 108 ÷ 12 = 108 ÷ 4 ÷ 3 = 27 ÷ 3 = 9

OR

108 ÷ 12 = 108 ÷ 2 ÷ 6 = 54 ÷ 6 = 9

3. Calculate the following by breaking up the divisor into factors :

3.1 105 ÷ 21 = ...................................... 3.2 216 ÷ 24 = ......................................

= ...................................... = ......................................

= ...................................... = ......................................

3.3 432 ÷ 24 = ...................................... 3.4 126 ÷ 14 = ......................................

= ...................................... = ......................................

= ...................................... = ......................................

4. Work together with a friend. Look carefully at the following and then explain it to two other friends.

4.1 184 ÷ 4 = (180 + 4) ÷ 4

= (180 ÷ 4) + (4 ÷ 4)

= 45 + 1

= 46

4.2 2 515 ÷ 5 = (2 000 + 500 + 15) ÷ 5

= (2 000 ÷ 5) + (500 ÷ 5) + (15 ÷ 5)

= 400 + 100 + 3

= 503

4.3 3 672 ÷ 12 = (3 600 ÷ 12) + (72 ÷ 12)

= 300 + 6

= 306

5. Complete the following:

5.1 3 045 ÷ 15 = (3 000 + ....................) ÷ 15

= (.................... ÷ 15) + (.................... ÷ 15)

= 200 + ....................

= ....................

5.2 2 575 ÷ 25 = (2 000 + .................... + ....................) ÷ 25

= (2 000 ÷ 25) + (.................... ÷ .............) + (............. ÷ ............)

= .................... + .................... + ....................

= ....................

5.3 Can you write down your own explanation?

Activity 7:

To be able to do mental arithmetic [lo 1.9.2]

1. Let us test your mental skills again. Find the correct answer and encircle it with your pencil. Find out who or what is hidden away.

1.1 96 ÷ 12

1.2 108 ÷ 9

1.3 72 ÷ 9

1.4 42 ÷ 6

1.5 54 ÷ 6

1.6 32 ÷ 8

1.7 27 ÷ 9

1.8 66 ÷ 11

1.9 81 ÷ 9

1.10 35 ÷ 7

1.11 21 ÷ 3

1.12 ____ ÷ 6 = 9

1.13 ____ ÷ 8 = 6

1.14 ____ ÷ 6 = 12

1.15 ___ ÷ 11 = 12

1.16 ____ ÷ 9 = 5

1.17 ____ ÷ 7 = 8

1.18 Halve: 96

1.19 Halve: 134

1.20 Halve: 576

Colour the pictures in neatly so that your answers are clearly visible.

Activity 8:

To estimate and calculate by using selected computations [lo 1.8.5]

1. We have already discussed the value of estimation . Let us see again how well you can estimate. Encircle the best answer.

I ESTIMATE
a) How many 16’s are there in 35? 2 12 20
b) How many 15’s are there in 93? 6 16 60
c) How many 13’s are there in 271? 2 20 200
d) How many 25’s are there in 4 130? 27 175 750
e) How many 21’s are there in 8 565? 4 40 400

2. Now use your calculator to see whether you were spot on.

Activity 9:

To be able to solve problems in context [lo 1.6.1]

  • The following activity is a group project that you can add to your portfolio. Your educator will provide you with the necessary paper and will explain exactly what you are expected to do.
  • Divide into groups of four or five and then read the assignment closely.
  • Your group must visit at least three florists or flower vendors in your area. Your job is to determine which florist or vendor is the cheapest.

In economics, a perfect market refers to a theoretical construct where all participants have perfect information, goods are homogenous, there are no barriers to entry or exit, and prices are determined solely by supply and demand. It's an idealized model used for analysis,

What is different between quantity demand and demand?
Shukri Reply
Quantity demanded refers to the specific amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a give price and within a specific time period. Demand, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses the entire relationship between price and quantity demanded
