writing. Hieroglyph comes from the root word hieros which is Greek meaning sacred, and the root word glypho which means inscription. Hieroglyphs were first used by Clement of Alexandria. It was first used in ancient Egypt, as a decimal numbering system. But the decimal was non-positional; it could deal with numbers of great scale. Egyptian used this method mostly in medicine and geometry. The earliest known examples of hieroglyphs in Egypt have been dated to 3,400 BC. The latest date in hieroglyphs

is a numeric value - either a zero or a one - that holds a single unit of digital information. Bits are usually strung together in a sequence - eight bits normally equals one byte. Bits are used to write binary numbers, which can be used to store decimal numbers such as 244 or 93 as patterns of ones and zeroes. ASCII - or American Standard Code for Information Interchange - is a computer code that was developed to allow computers to convert human text into bits that computers could understand. In

little dis-heartened right now. The reason for my discouragement is my computer may have a glitch. Certain mathematical operations are fouled up by some malicious code, and when I multiply variables by 10 (in Netbeans and other IDEs), I get erroneous decimal places added onto my figures. This week, I learned how to setup NetBeans, how to discern basic fundemental programming blocks of java, how to setup java variables, how to control the flow of execution with branches and loops, how to test for conditions

the number is negative so the absolute number is converted to decimal as 0011101 equivalent to 11101 and converted into decimal number as = 16+8+4+0+1 =29 Thus, the decimal equivalent of Signed-magnitude representation of the given number is -29. For b) Since the MSB is 1 that represents the given number in binary when represented as Signed-2’s complement is negative and the binary conversion follows as above and the decimal equivalent is – (29+1) = -30. Negative binary number in Signed-2’s

subtracting decimals? Row 2 A cashier at a local grocery store Customer buying groceries A list of items purchased by the customer You are calculating the grocery items that the customer has brought Row 3 A server at a restaurant Customer Menu You are adding each food item that the customer chooses to get a total, then subtracting to give customer their change, because all registers are currently down. RAFT Row 1 Objective: Student will inform audience on how to add and subtract decimals with

Scientists use significant figures to show exactly how much information an measurement contains. To give fewer digits that one knows would be withholding information about the accuracy of a measurement, and to give too many would be exaggerating the reliability of the measurement. When measuring, it is important to report all digits that one is certain of, along with one more estimated digit. The final digit of any measurement is estimated. The unreliability of a measurement, therefore, is plus or

In the beginning of my observations the students in the classroom had been practicing their addition and subtraction in a one digit numbers. However, as the year went on my cooperating teacher started to get her students to be solving two-digit addition and subtractions problems. Before she started with two-digit she wanted to be certain that her students felt confident along with concrete knowledge and examples in their one digit equations because if not, they would fall apart for two digit equations

Competency 662.1.7: Differentiated Instruction Jennifer Moore Western Governor’s University Part A: The “Equivalent Fractions and Decimals Lesson Plan” is aligned to NCTM’s content and process standards. The content standard that this lesson is addressing is numbers and operations. This entire lesson is about students using fractions and decimals to solve problems. This lesson also has several process standards addressed in the lesson plan. One of the process standards used in this

Rational Number Report Through the Rational Number Interview I was able to gain insight into Adams mathematical understanding of fractions, decimals and percentages. As a student in year 5, Adam was able to make connections using various mathematical strategies. Adam has an understanding of infinite numbers, for example, when asked how many decimals are there between each rational number (0.1 and 0.11), he answered promptly with “many numbers”. Adam was able to acknowledge that a fraction can be
