Coordinates

Coordinates Coordinates are a pair of numbers which are used to determine the position of a point or a shape in a 2-dimensional plane. We define the position of a point on a 2D plane using two numbers, called the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate. Coordinates are written as ordered pairs of numbersor using letters and numbers.  […]

Composite number

Composite number Composite numbers are numbers that have more than two factors.  Composite number is a whole number that can be made by multiplying other whole numbers. Examples: 6 can be made by 2 × 3 and  1 x 6  so 6 is a composite number. The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, 6 Play […]

Commutative law

Commutative law The definition of commutative law states that when we add or multiply two numbers then the resultant value remains the same, even if we change the position of the two numbers.  It means that you can swap numbers around and still get the same answer when you add or when you multiply. Examples: Addition […]

Common multiple

Common multiple A common multiple is a multiple that is common to two or more numbers. Examples: The multiples of 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, … etcThe multiples of 5 are: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, … etc So, a common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15 (and 30, 45, etc …, as well)   […]

Common factor

Common factor Factors are numbers we can multiply together to get another number. When we compare lists of factors of two or more numbers, any factors that are the same are the “common factors“. Examples: 12 and 16• The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12• The factors of 16 are: […]

Common denominator

Common denominator The denominator is the bottom number in a fraction. It shows how many equal parts the item is divided into. When the denominators of two or more fractions are the same, they are Common Denominators.

Cirlce, circle line, circumference

Circle, circle line, circumference A circle is a shape consisting of a curved line completely surrounding an area. Every part of the line is the same distance from the centre of the area. Circumference is the distance around a circle. Circle Terminology Centre: the point equidistant from all points on the circle. Circumference: the length of one circuit […]
