Understand two fractions as equivalent (equal) if they are the same size, or the same point on a number line. Recognize and generate simple equivalent fractions, e.g., 1=2 = 2=4;4=6 = 2=3. Explain why the fractions are equivalent, e.g., by using a visual fraction model. Hill series, Steps to Understanding, is a development from the highly successful approach used in Stories for Reproduction. The all new stories are accompanied by a variety of exercises, as before but in this series, there is a greater emphasis on comprehension work.

Abstract

Elementary Steps To Understanding

The transport of p-xylene in purely siliceous MFI was investigated in the presence of coadsorbed m-xylene by combining fast time-resolved IR spectroscopy and frequency response methods. p-Xylene transport rates are dominated by diffusion in the straight channels of MFI, which is 8 times faster than transport in the sinusoidal channels. m-Xylene adsorbed on the outer surface lowers the sorption rate of p-xylene significantly by blocking pore entrances, whereas m-xylene adsorbed in the MFI pores hardly influences the p-xylene transport rates. If the pore entrance is the rate-determining step of the transport process, as for the MFI samples investigated, m-xylene sorption on the outer surface selectively impedes faster transport through the straight pore openings

I went ahead and paid with my card. Saw that in one section, it mentioned the flat address (uneditable). Now, for 2016-17, I paid the property tax online. Bbmp tax paid receipt print. But I saw in the new tax paid receipt it only mentions the flat number and not full address.

RECOMMENDED

Algebra is great fun - you get to solve puzzles!

A Puzzle

What is the missing number?

−

2

=

4

OK, the answer is 6, right? Because 6 − 2 = 4. Easy stuff.

Well, in Algebra we don't use blank boxes, we use a letter (usually an x or y, but any letter is fine). So we write:

x

−

2

=

4

It is really that simple. The letter (in this case an x) just means 'we don't know this yet', and is often called the unknown or the variable.

And when we solve it we write:

x

=

6

Why Use a Letter?

Because:

it is easier to write 'x' than drawing empty boxes (and easier to say 'x' than 'the empty box').

if there are several empty boxes (several 'unknowns') we can use a different letter for each one.

So x is simply better than having an empty box. We aren't trying to make words with it!

And it doesn't have to be x, it could be y or w .. or any letter or symbol we like.

How to Solve

Algebra is just like a puzzle where we start with something like 'x − 2 = 4' and we want to end up with something like 'x = 6'.

But instead of saying 'obviously x=6', use this neat step-by-step approach:

• Work out what to remove to get 'x = ..'
• Remove it by doing the opposite (adding is the opposite of subtracting)
• Do that to both sides

Here is an example:

To remove it, do
the opposite, in
this case add 2

Steps To Understanding Pdf

Which is ..

Why did we add 2 to both sides?

To 'keep the balance'..

Add 2 to Left Side

Out of Balance!

Just remember this:

To keep the balance, what we do to one side of the '=' we should also do to the other side!

See this in action at the Algebra Balance Animation.

Another Puzzle

Solve this one:

x

+

5

=

12

What we want is an answer like 'x = ..',
but the +5 is in the way of that!
We can cancel out the +5 with a −5 (because 5−5=0)
