Basic Mathematics Notes
1. Addition
Addition is combining two or more numbers to get a total.
Example: 5 + 3 = 8
2. Subtraction
Subtraction is taking one number away from another.
Example: 10 - 4 = 6
3. Multiplication
Multiplication is repeated addition.
Example: 4 x 3 = 12
4. Division
Division is splitting a number into equal parts.
Example: 12 ÷ 4 = 3
5. Fractions
A fraction represents a part of a whole.
Example: 1/2 means one part out of two equal parts.
6. Decimals
Decimals are numbers with a point to represent part of a whole.

Example: 0.75 = 75/100
7. Order of Operations (BODMAS)
BODMAS stands for Brackets, Orders, Division, Multiplication, Addition, and Subtraction.
Use this order to solve math problems correctly.
8. Place Value
Each digit in a number has a place value.
Example: In 345, 3 is in the hundreds place, 4 is in the tens place, and 5 is in the ones place.
9. Even and Odd Numbers
Even numbers are divisible by 2 (like 2, 4, 6).
Odd numbers are not divisible by 2 (like 1, 3, 5).
