    I’d like to talk about the “Golden Ratio” and “The rule of Third”, They are very famous in the world and always use in the building , art and photograph,etc.They have lots of value in the world, although someone has a different opinion. Because of people have different arguments, the “Golden ratio” and “the rule of thirds” can become more complete . The “Golden Ratio” can be described as a complex mathematical formula.The Golden Ratio is a special number which be found from division line into

  • Finding The Common Denominator

    1046 Words  | 3 Pages

    In everyday life, we interact with fractions multiple times throughout the day. Whether it is the amount of gas left in a tank, how much flour we need to measure out in a recipe or even how much money we have used up. There is a major importance for students to have the ability to understand and compare fractions. The lesson I have developed will help students be able to convert and compare fractions that have different denominators. I included three separate methods that will help students do so:

  • Fraction Differences

    Fraction Differences First Sequence To begin with I looked at the first sequence of fractions to discover the formula that explained it. As all the numerators were 1 I looked at the denominators. As these all increased by 1 every time, I figured that the formula was simply [IMAGE] as the denominators corresponded to the implied first line as shown in this table below: nth number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Denominators 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 I shall

    1. How do you multiply proper fractions? How do you multiply mixed numbers? 2. How do you divide proper fractions? How do you divide improper fractions? 3. Give an example of how/when you use fractions (including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and or ordering of) in your day to day activities outside of math class. Multiplying proper fractions requires a few steps. The first step will be to multiply the top two numbers also known as the numerators. Second you will multiply the

He attended Platteville State Teachers College (later Wisconsin State University at Platteville) where he received a B.Ed in 1931. Williams continued education into graduate school was mainly due to the lack of work during the Great Depression. He went on to earn a Ph.M. in 1932, and Ph.D. in 1937, from the University of Wisconsin (Dawson 431). Lincoln and His Generals was the breakthrough

    dividing units of time such as sixty like we still use today for hours and minutes. They used “formal” math as far back as 3000 B.C., but basic math can be dated as far back as 2690 C.A. They are also believed to be the first to use fractions, although they wrote their fractions differently than we do today. Their mathematics had an emphasis on measurement and calculations. With their vast knowledge in geometry they were able to calculate the areas of triangles, bricks, trapezoids and pyramids. The Egyptians

    The first part of this review does not contain spoilers. Ken MacLeod's The Star Fraction is a fantasic science fiction novel about love, loss, socialism, anarcho-capitalism, "American-style ‘black helicopter’ libertarianism", and the looming threat of a fascistic world order. The Star Fraction's setting is post World War III UK, where the republican government has been overthrown by the monarchy, and a new kingdom has been established. After many failed violent revolutions to over throw the monarch

    of math. The Reason for Math The Egyptians used math very heavily in their daily life. Since the Egyptians at that time had no money, participating in trade and market required knowledge of fractions. Since the Egyptians need the most precise calculations, they only used unit fractions, aside from the fraction 2/3. Because they didn’t round off their numbers, the closest possible answer was produced. Another peril of life in Egypt that was solved by math was the need for a calendar. Since the Nile

Student use of technology through communications can also help to enhance access to a career and continued education. Students are more likely to use a computer to get help because they can to it themselves. Technology is helping students to become independent. Due to the technology increase many schools are reporting higher test scores. One example

Recent coordination of colleges and high schools has also provided students interested in attending college the opportunity to advance their pursuits in continued education by allowing them to correlate their high school classes with the college curriculum for dual credit. I will use these tools, along with many others, to heighten the educational experience for my students. I also recall my “good” teachers

    Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical pathological syndrome characterised by symptom of shortness of breath , fatigue and the sign of rales on chest ascultation and peripheral pitting oedema also termed as sign of congestion. It is caused by the structural and functional diffect of the heart(1) .

    which is described by the Frank-Starling mechanism. However, as the disease progresses, the heart loses that compensatory mechanism leading to a decrease in the strength of the contraction of the heart, hence, a decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction. There are two types of DCM, primary and secondary. Primary dilated cardiomyopathy are usually idiopathic in nature, however, “approximately 30% of cases” have a “familial transmission pattern.”3(138) Secondary dilated cardiomyopathy, on the other

The recommended starting dose of Corlanor is 5 mg twice daily

  • Mesopotamian Algebra

    9. In what sense did the Mesopotamian authors “do algebra”? Did they have the concept of an equation or a classification of types of equations? The Mesopotamian authors didn’t “do algebra,” they solved problems by following a set of steps which allowed them to get a numerical answer. Today, if we tried to solve those problems, we would use algebra, but they did not (Cooke, 2005, p. 40). They had no concept of an equation, or of a set of rules that would allow them to solve a variety of problems
