AND is use before the last to figures (tens and units) of a number.
103: a (or one) hundred and three
325: three hundred and twenty-five
2315: two thousand three hundred and fifteen
The words hundred, thousand and million can be used in the singular form with “a” or “one”, but
not alone. “A” is more common in an informal style; “one” is used when we were speaking more
precisely.
I want to live for a hundred years
The journey took exactly one hundred light years
I have a thousand euros
“A” is also common in an informal style with measurement-words.
A kilo of oranges costs a pound
Mix one litre of milk with one kilo of flour ...
SINGULAR O PRURAL?
Number are usually written in singular.
Three hundred euros
Several thousand light years
The plural is only used with dozen, hundred, thousand, million, billion, if they are not modified by
another number or expression (for example a few/several).
Hundreds of pounds
Thousands of light years
PHONE NUMBERS
Each figures is said separately (25 __ two five)
The figure '0' is called oh (304 __ three oh four)
Pause after groups of 3 or 4 figures
234 7809 __ two three four, seven eight oh nine
234 5778 __ two three four, five double seven eight (British English) or
two three four, five seven seven eight (American English)

ZERO, NOUGHT, NIL, LOVE …
The figure 0 is usually called nought in British English and zero in American English
In measurements, 0 is called zero:
Water freezes at zero degrees Celsius
In team games, zero scores are usually called nil in British English, and zero in American English.
In tennis, the word love is used instead of zero (this is derived from French word “l'oeuf”, because
zero can be egg-shaped):
Spain three Germany nil (zero)
Nadal is winning forty-love
1 BILLION
In English, billion usually means a thousand million: 1 000 000 000
Realize that in Spanish billion means 1 000 000 000 000
PLACE VALUE
Every digit in a number represents a different value depending on its position. For example:
In 53, “5” represents fifty units
In 5234, “5” represents five thousand units
This is the place value table we need to write numbers, no matter how big they are:
BILLION HUNDRED TEN
MILLION MILLION
MILLION HUNDRED
TEN
THOUSAND HUNDRED TEN UNIT
THOUNSAND THOUSAND

Integers:
The first set of number we knew was the set of Natural Numbers (also called whole numbers):
ℕ = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, …}
There are many situations in which you need to use numbers below zero, one of these is
temperature, others are money that you can deposit (positive) or withdraw (negative) in a bank,
steps that you can take forwards (positive) or backwards (negative).
Positive integers are all the whole numbers greater than zero: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, …
Negative Integers are all the opposites of these whole numbers: -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, …
Integers allow us to count and order below and above zero. The set of all Integers is represented by
the letter ℤ = { … -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, … }

Teacher: Miguel Angel Hernández
The natural numbers are included in the set of Integers. This fact is represented by the symbol
' ' ⊂' ' .
ℕ⊂ℤ is read ℕ is a subset of ℤ .
The Number Line:
The number line is a line labelled with the integers in increasing order from left to right, that
extends in both directions:
For any two different places on the number line, the integer on the right is greater than the integer
on the left.
Examples:
4>-1 is read: “four is greater than minus one”
-3<2 is read: “minus three is less than two”
Opposite of an integer:
The opposite of an integer is the same number with the other sign. The distance from a number to
zero is the same as the distance from its opposite to zero.
The opposite of +5 is -5
The opposite of -7 is +7
Absolute value of an integer:
The absolute value of an integer is the number of units is from zero on the number line.
If the number is positive, the absolute value is the same number.
If the number is negative, the absolute value is the opposite.
The absolute value of an integer is always a positive number (or zero). We specify the absolute
value of a number n in between two vertical bars: ∣n∣ .
Examples:
∣3∣=3
∣−5∣=5
∣4∣=4
7
∣−7∣=7

Write the opposite and the absolute value of all these numbers.
Adding and Subtracting Integers:
Rules for Addition:
When adding integers with the same sign: We add their absolute values, and give the result with
the same sign.
46=10
−3−6=−9
−5−2=−7
When adding integers with the opposite signs: We subtract their absolute values (we subtract the
smaller absolute value from the larger), and give the result with the sign of the integer with the
larger absolute value.
7−9=−2
8−5=3
−61=−5
Rules for Subtraction:
Subtracting an integer is the same as adding the opposite.
We convert the subtracted integer to its opposite, and add the two integers:
The result of subtracting two integers could be positive or negative.

Multiplying and Dividing Integers:
Rules for Multiplication.
To multiply a pair of integers:
– If both numbers have the same sign (positive or negative), their product is the product of
their absolute values (their product is positive).
– If the numbers have opposite signs, their product is the opposite of the product of their
absolute values (their product is negative).
– If a number is 0, the product is 0.
Look at the chart below:

5· −4=−20
−5· 4=−20
−5· −4=20
To multiply any numbers of integers:
1. Count the number of negative integers in the product. If this numbers is even, the product is
positive, but if the number is odd, the product is negative.
2. Take the product of their absolute values.
( If any of the integers in the product is 0, the product is 0).

Rules for Division:
To divide a pair of integers the rules are the same than for the product:
– If both numbers have the same sign (positive or negative), divide the absolute values of the
first integer by the absolute value of the second integer (the result is positive).
– If the number have opposite signs, divide the absolute value of the first integer by the
absolute value of the second integer, and give the result a negative sign.

Powers of Integers:
Powers are products of equal factors:
a n=a · a ·...... · a , n times
where a is the base and n is the exponent or index.

−3 =−3· −3· −3=−27
Sign of the power of an integer:
If the base is positive, the sign will be always positive.
If the base is negative, the sign will be positive if the exponent is even, and negative if it is
odd.

Square root:
The square root of a number a is another number b whose squared is a.
 a=b when b 2=a
The number a is called radicand, the symbol √
of a.
is called radical and b is called the squared root
The numbers with an exact square root are called perfect squares.
Examples:
 1=1 because 12=1
 4=2 because 2 2=4
 9=3 because 32=9
 16=4 because 4 2=16
 25=5 because 52=25
 36=6 because 62 =36
 49=7 because 72 =49

But, be careful! If we are working in the set of integers, a number can have two square roots:
Example:
 36=±6 , because 62 =36 and −62=36
 100=±10 , because 102=100 and −102=100
−4 , it does not exist because any squared integer is negative.
−9 , it does not exist.
Integer square root:
If a radicand is not a perfect square, the square root is not exact. In this case, we talk about integer
square root.
The integer square root of a number a is the greater number b whose squared is less than a.
The remainder of the integer square root is the difference between the radicand a and the squared
of the integer root b.

Divisibility in the set of integers:
The multiples of a number are obtained multiplying the number by each integer. Usually, the set of
multiples of a number a is written ȧ .
Example: Multiples of 2: 2̇={... ,−6,−4,−2, 0,2,4,6,...}
The factors of a number are the numbers that divide exactly into it, with no remainder.
Example: Factors of 20: {±1,±2,±4,±5,±10,±20}
Factors and Multiples are linked:
12 is divisible by 3 ≡ 12 is a multiple of 3 ≡ 3 is a factor of 12.
Prime Numbers:
If a number has only two different factors, 1 and itself, then the number is said to be a prime
number.
Remember, we have already studied the Sieve of Erastothenes that gives us the list of the prime
numbers. It starts as follows:
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, …
Test of divisibility:
Divisible by 2
A number is divisible by 2 if the last digit is 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.
Example: 2 346 is divisible by 2 because the last digit is 6.
Divisible by 3
A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of the digits is divisible by 3.
Example: 23 457 is divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits is 21 (2+3+4+5+7=21), and 21 is
divisible by 3.
Divisible by 4
A number is divisible by 4 if the number formed by the last two digits is either 00 or divisible by 4.
Example: 24 516 is divisible by 4 because 16 is divisible by 4.
21

Divisible by 5
A number is divisible by 5 if the last digit is either 0 or 5.
Example: 9 876 345 is divisible by 5 because the last digit is 5.
Divisible by 6
A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 (the last digit is 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8) and it is also
divisible by 3 (the sum of the digits is divisible by 3)
Example: 534 is divisible by 6 because is divisible by 2 (the last digit is 4) and it is divisible by 3
(the sum of the digits 5+3+4=12 is divisible by 3)
Divisible by 10
A number is divisible by 10 if the last digit is 0.
Example: 12 345 890 is divisible by 10 because the last digit is 0.
Divisible by 11
To check if a number is divisible by 11, sum the digits in the odd positions counting from the left
(the first, the third, …) and then sum the remainder digits. If the difference between the sums is
either 0 or divisible by 11, then so is the original number.
Examples: 145 879 635
Digits in odd positions: 1+5+7+6+5=24
Digits in even positions: 4+8+9+3=24
The difference is 24-24=0
So 145 879 635 is divisible by 11.
918 291
Digits in odd positions: 9+8+9=26
Digits in even positions: 1+2+1=4
The difference: 26-4=22
So 918 291 is divisible by 11.

Highest Common Factor (HCF) or Greatest Common Factor (GCF):
Factors that are common to two or more numbers are said to be common factors.
Example:
Factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12.
Factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18.
So, common factors of 12 and 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6.
The largest common factor of two or more numbers is called the highest common factor (HCF).
In general, there are two methods for finding the Highest common factor of two or more numbers:
Method I (for small numbers):
List the factor of each number, and find the common factors. The largest of them is the highest
common factor.
Example:
Calculate HCF (8,12):
Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8.
Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12.
So, HCF(8,12)=4.
Method II (general):
To find the highest common factor of two or more numbers:
– Find the prime factorization of each number.
– Choose the common factor with the lowest exponents.
Example:
Find HCF (360,300):
360 2
180 2
90 2

Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) or Least Common Multiple (LCM):
Multiples that are common to two numbers are said to be common multiples.
Example:
Multiples of 2 are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, …
Multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, …
So, common multiples of 2 and 3 are 6, 12, 18, …
The smallest common multiple of two or more numbers is called the lowest common multiple
(LCM).
In general, there are two methods for finding the lowest common multiple of two or more numbers:
Method I (for small numbers):
List the multiple of the largest number and stop when you find a multiple of the other number. This
is the LCM.
Example:
Calculate LCM (8,3):
Multiples of 8 are: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, …
Multiples of 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, …
So, LCM (8,3)=24
Method II (general):
To find the lowest common multiple (LCM) of two or more numbers:
– Find the prime factorization of each number.
– Choose the non common factors and the common factors with the highest exponents.
Example:
Find LCM (18,24)
18 2
