Lesson 1 Significant Figures

Identifying Significant Figures 0.00 5 83 000 Leading zeros In between zeros Nonzero digit Trailing zeros

Look at these examples (significant figures - s.f.) How many s.f. do you think each of them have? Write it down in your notebook 0.040 0.36 0.008 230.0 → 2 s.f. → 2 s.f. → 1 s.f. → 6 s.f. → 3 s.f. → 2 s.f. → 3 s.f. 2230.05 120. 120 12,400 → 4 s.f.

Identifying Significant Figures 0.00 5 83 000 Leading zeros will never count Nonzero digit and in between zeros will always count Trailing zeros will depend on the situation…. Leading zeros In between zeros Nonzero digit Trailing zeros

Trailing zeros will depend on the situation…. 0.040 230.0 120. 120 12,400 Look at these numbers as if they were representing measurements. We will count the s.f. by considering which digits are giving us a precise measurements.

Trailing zeros will depend on the situation…. 0.04 230. 120. 120 12,400 Look at these numbers as if they were representing measurements. We will count the s.f. by considering which digits are giving us a precise measurements. These zeros are “optional” which means that if they are written there, it’s because I measured all the way up to their places and I know it’s a zero there, not a 1, 3, 5 or a 8 for example.

Trailing zeros will depend on the situation…. 0.040 230.0 120. 12 12,4 00 Look at these numbers as if they were representing measurements. We will count the s.f. by considering which digits are giving us a precise measurements. These zeros are not “optional” which means that we can’t guarantee if they are there just because they have to or because someone really measure all the way up to the units place.

Trailing zeros will depend on the situation…. 0.040 230.0 120 . 120 12,400 Look at these numbers as if they were representing measurements. We will count the s.f. by considering which digits are giving us a precise measurements. In order to guarantee that the number was measured all the way up to the units place, we need to include the decimal point, even though we are not going to write any decimal place value after it.

Definition: Significant figures are the number of digits in a value, often a measurement, that contribute to the degree of accuracy of the value . We start counting significant figures at the first non-ze ro digit.

Lesson 2 Rounding numbers

Look at some examples Round each of these numbers to 1 decimal place (d.p.) 0.46 0.32 12.59 2.362 ≈ 0.5 ≈ 0.3 ≈ 12.6 ≈ 230.1 ≈ 20.3 ≈ 3.0 ≈ 13.0 230.05 20.347 2.98 12.95 ≈ 2.4

We round numbers when all we need is a reasonable approximation rather than the exact value . 12.3864 Round the number to 1 d.p. 1st - Identify which digit do we have at the tenths place. 2nd - Draw a line right after this digit. 3rd - Identify which digit comes right after (on the right-hand side) 4th - If the number after the line is less than 5, then round the number down. If the number after the line if greater than or equal to 5, round the number up. ≈ 12. 4

We round numbers when all we need is a reasonable approximation rather than the exact value . 3 . 615 Round the number to 2 d.p. 1st - Identify which digit do we have at the hundreadths place. 2nd- Draw a line right after this digit. 3rd - Identify which digit comes right after (on the right-hand side) 4th - If the number after the line is less than 5, then round the number down. If the number after the line if greater than or equal to 5, round the number up. ≈ 3.62

We round numbers when all we need is a reasonable approximation rather than the exact value . 73 .95 Round the number to 1 d.p. 1st - Identify which digit do we have at the tenths place. 2nd- Draw a line right after this digit. 3rd - Identify which digit comes right after (on the right-hand side) 4th - If the number after the line is less than 5, then round the number down. If the number after the line if greater than or equal to 5, round the number up. ≈ 74.0

We round numbers when all we need is a reasonable approximation rather than the exact value . 126.47 Round the number to the nearest whole number 1st - Identify which digit do we have at the units place. 2nd - Draw a line right after this digit. 3rd - Identify which digit comes right after (on the right-hand side) 4th - If the number after the line is less than 5, then round the number down. If the number after the line if greater than or equal to 5, round the number up. ≈ 126

We round numbers when all we need is a reasonable approximation rather than the exact value . 438.5 Round the number to the nearest hundread number 1st - Identify which digit do we have at the hundreads place. 2nd - Draw a line right after this digit. 3rd - Identify which digit comes right after (on the right-hand side) 4th - If the number after the line is less than 5, then round the number down. If the number after the line if greater than or equal to 5, round the number up. ≈ 400

Lesson 3 Rounding to significant figures

We round numbers when all we need is a reasonable approximation rather than the exact value . 1355.67 Round the number to the nearest ten number 1st - Identify which digit do we have at the ten place. 2nd - Draw a line right after this digit. 3rd - Identify which digit comes right after (on the right-hand side) 4th - If the number after the line is less than 5, then round the number down. If the number after the line if greater than or equal to 5, round the number up. ≈ 1360

Lesson 4 Estimating results

Jhon is at the supermarket and he decides to buy 8 apples, 5 lemons and 3 mangos. Below you can see the price per unit of each of these fruits. Jhon does not have a calculator with him at the time, but he wants to have an idea of how much he is going to spend for all of these fruits. What can he do? R$0.43 R$2.45 R$0.75 8 x R$1.00 = R$8.00 5 x R$0.50 = R$2.50 3 x R$2.00 = R$ R$6.00 R$8.00 + R$2.50 + R$6.00 = R$16.50 We can estimate that Jhon is going to spend R$16.50 on fruits.

To estimate a calculation, we can always round all the numbers to 1 significant figure and do the calculation using these numbers. This will give us an idea about the size of the number. → Round all the numbers to 1 s.f. → Don’t forget we should always solve what is inside the brackets first.

As we rounded all the numbers down, we have for sure a underestimated value of the real answer. The real answer is 2,682.899. However 2,400 gives us a good idea about the size of the number, Is 2,400 a good estimation?

Estimate this value in your notebook. ( 2 + 8 ) x ( 7 + 7 ) = ( 10 ) x ( 14 ) = 140
