1. NUMBERS

IMPORTANT FACTS AND FORMULAE

I..Numeral : In Hindu Arabic system, we use ten symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 called digits to represent any number.

A group of digits, denoting a number is called a numeral.

We represent a number, say 689745132 as shown below :

Ten Crores (10⁸)	Crores(10⁷)	Ten Lacs (Millions) (10⁶)	Lacs(10⁵)	Ten Thousands (10⁴)	Thousands (10³)	Hundreds (10²)	Tens(10¹)	Units(10⁰)
6	8	9	7	4	5	1	3	2

We read it as : 'Sixty-eight crores, ninety-seven lacs, forty-five thousand, one hundred and thirty-two'.

II Place Value or Local Value of a Digit in a Numeral :

In the above numeral :

Place value of 2 is (2 x 1) = 2; Place value of 3 is (3 x 10) = 30;

Place value of 1 is (1 x 100) = 100 and so on.

Place value of 6 is 6 x 10⁸ = 600000000

III.Face Value : The face value of a digit in a numeral is the value of the digit itself at whatever place it may be. In the above numeral, the face value of 2 is 2; the face value of 3 is 3 and so on.

IV.TYPES OF NUMBERS

1.Natural Numbers : Counting numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,..... are called natural

numbers.

2.Whole Numbers : All counting numbers together with zero form the set of whole
numbers. Thus,

(i) 0 is the only whole number which is not a natural number.

(ii) Every natural number is a whole number.

3.Integers : All natural numbers, 0 and negatives of counting numbers i.e.,
{…, -3,-2,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3,…..} together form the set of integers.

(i) Positive Integers : {1, 2, 3, 4, …..} is the set of all positive integers.

(ii) Negative Integers : {- 1, - 2, - 3,…..} is the set of all negative integers.

(iii) Non-Positive and Non-Negative Integers : 0 is neither positive nor

negative. So, {0, 1, 2, 3,….} represents the set of non-negative integers, while

{0, -1,-2,-3,…..} represents the set of non-positive integers.

4. Even Numbers : A number divisible by 2 is called an even number, e.g., 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, etc.

5. Odd Numbers : A number not divisible by 2 is called an odd number. e.g., 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, etc.

6. Prime Numbers : A number greater than 1 is called a prime number, if it has exactly two factors, namely 1 and the number itself.

Prime numbers upto 100 are : 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43,

47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97.

Prime numbers Greater than 100 : Letp be a given number greater than 100. To find out whether it is prime or not, we use the following method :

Find a whole number nearly greater than the square root of p. Let k > *jp. Test whether p is divisible by any prime number less than k. If yes, then p is not prime. Otherwise, p is prime.

e.g,,We have to find whether 191 is a prime number or not. Now, 14 > V191.

Prime numbers less than 14 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13.

191 is not divisible by any of them. So, 191 is a prime number.

7.Composite Numbers : Numbers greater than 1 which are not prime, are known as composite numbers, e.g., 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12.

Note : (i) 1 is neither prime nor composite.

(ii) 2 is the only even number which is prime.

(iii) There are 25 prime numbers between 1 and 100.

8. Co-primes : Two numbers a and b are said to be co-primes, if their H.C.F. is 1. e.g., (2, 3), (4, 5), (7, 9), (8, 11), etc. are co-primes,

Note : If a number is divisible by p as well as q, where p and q are co-primes, then the given number is divisible by pq.

If p arid q are not co-primes, then the given number need not be divisible by pq,

even when it is divisible by both p and q.

Ex. 36 is divisible by both 4 and 6, but it is not divisible by (4x6) = 24, since

4 and 6 are not co-primes.

VI MULTIPLICATION BY SHORT CUT METHODS

1. Multiplication By Distributive Law :

(i) a x (b + c) = a x b + a x c (ii) ax(b-c) = a x b-a x c.

Ex. (i) 567958 x 99999 = 567958 x (100000 - 1)

= 567958 x 100000 - 567958 x 1 = (56795800000 - 567958) = 56795232042. (ii) 978 x 184 + 978 x 816 = 978 x (184 + 816) = 978 x 1000 = 978000.

2. Multiplication of a Number By 5ⁿ : Put n zeros to the right of the multiplicand and divide the number so formed by 2ⁿ

Ex. 975436 x 625 = 975436 x 5⁴= 9754360000 = 609647600

VII. BASIC FORMULAE

1. (a + b)² = a²+ b² + 2ab 2. (a - b)²= a²+ b² - 2ab

3. (a + b)² - (a - b)² = 4ab 4. (a + b)²+ (a - b)² = 2 (a² + b²)

5. (a²- b²) = (a + b) (a - b)

6. (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2 (ab + bc + ca)

7. (a³ + b³) = (a +b) (a² - ab + b²) 8. (a³ - b³) = (a - b) (a² + ab + b²)

9. (a³ + b³ + c³ -3abc) = (a + b + c) (a² + b² + c² - ab - bc - ca)

10. If a + b + c = 0, then a³ + b³+ c³ = 3abc.

VIII. DIVISION ALGORITHM OR EUCLIDEAN ALGORITHM

If we divide a given number by another number, then :

Dividend = (Divisor x Quotient) + Remainder

IX. {i) (xⁿ- aⁿ ) is divisible by (x - a) for all values of n.

(ii) (xⁿ - aⁿ) is divisible by (x + a) for all even values of n.

(iii) (xⁿ + aⁿ) is divisible by (x + a) for all odd values of n.

X. PROGRESSION

A succession of numbers formed and arranged in a definite order according to certain definite rule, is called a progression.

1. Arithmetic Progression (A.P.) : If each term of a progression differs from its preceding term by a constant, then such a progression is called an arithmetical progression. This constant difference is called the common difference of the A.P.

An A.P. with first term a and common difference d is given by a, (a + d), (a + 2d),(a + 3d),.....

The nth term of this A.P. is given by T_n =a (n - 1) d.

The sum of n terms of this A.P.

S_n = n/2 [2a + (n - 1) d] = n/2 (first term + last term).

SOME IMPORTANT RESULTS :

(i) (1 + 2 + 3 +…. + n) =n(n+1)/2

(ii) (l² + 2² + 3² + ... + n²) = n (n+1)(2n+1)/6

(iii) (1³+ 2³ + 3³+ ... + n³) =n²(n+1)²

2. Geometrical Progression (G.P.) : A progression of numbers in which every term bears a constant ratio with its preceding term, is called a geometrical progression.

The constant ratio is called the common ratio of the G.P. A G.P. with first term a and common ratio r is :

a, ar, ar²,

In this G.P. T_n = ar^n-1

sum of the n terms, Sn= a(1-rⁿ)

(1-r)

Let it contain n terms. Then,

1 + (n - 1) x 2 = 99 or n = 50.

\Required sum = n (first term + last term)

= 50 (1 + 99) = 2500.

Ex. 29. Find the sum of all 2 digit numbers divisible by 3.

Sol. All 2 digit numbers divisible by 3 are :

12, 51, 18, 21, ..., 99.

This is an A.P. with a = 12 and d = 3.

Let it contain n terms. Then,

12 + (n - 1) x 3 = 99 or n = 30.

\Required sum = 30 x (12+99) = 1665.

Ex.30.How many terms are there in 2,4,8,16……1024?

Sol.Clearly 2,4,8,16……..1024 form a GP. With a=2 and r = 4/2 =2.

Let the number of terms be n . Then

2 x 2^n-1 =1024 or 2^{n-1
=512 = 2}9.

\n-1=9 or n=10.

Ex. 31. 2 + 2² + 2³ + ... + 2⁸ = ?

Sol. Given series is a G.P. with a = 2, r = 2 and n = 8.

\sum = a(rⁿ-1) = 2 x (2⁸–1) = (2 x 255) =510

(r-1) (2-1)
