A fraction is a portion of a whole that has been divided into equal parts. A common fraction is written as ½. The number 1 represents a whole number called the numerator and the 2 represents a whole number called the denominator. Key words: 1) Numerator – the whole number above the fraction line. 2) Denominator – the whole number below the fraction line. Proper Fractions: These are fractions where the numerator is smaller than the denominator, e.g. 1 2 Improper Fractions: These ar...

Find the value of: 1. log7 343 Reasoning : 73 = 343 therefore, log7 343 = 3 2. log2 8 3. log4 1 64 4. log10 1 000 2.3 Logarithm Bases EMCD Logarithms, like exponentials, also have a base and log2(2) is not the same as log10(2). We generally use the “common” base, 10, or the natural base, e. The number e is an irrational number between 2.71 and 2.72. It comes up surprisingly often in Mathematics, but for now suffice it to say that it is one of the two common bases. Extension: Nat...
