, EMDAS
(parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) work left to right
Exponential Notation
Ex: 6^4, 2^3, 9^10, etc.
Expanded Form
Ex: 7x7x7, 6x6, 2x2x2x2x2, etc.

Adding or Subtracting fractions
You need a common denominator
Multiplying fractions
no special rule, just multiply Ex: 2/5 x 3/9= 6/45
Dividing fractions
flip 2nd fraction and multiply Ex: 2/5 divided by 3/9= 2/5 x 9/3
Solving Equations w/ fractions
either multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the fraction, or multiply both sides of the
equation by the denominator of the fraction
Percent Increase or Decrease problems
Formula: amount of change/ original number. Ex: Find the percent decrease if the price changes from
$60 to $39. 60-39= 21. amount of change= $21 original number= $60. $21/$60= 0.35. Convert to
