  • The Rules of Divisibility

    Lessons with videos, examples, solutions and stories to help students learn the Divisibility Rules. The multiple of a number is always divisible by the number. The word “divisible” means that it can be divided exactly. Example:144 ÷ 4 = 36 (remainder = 0). So, 144 is divisible by 4 and is a multiple of 4.…

  • Long Division

    In these lessons, we will look at some examples of the long division of whole numbers. In division, the number called the dividend is divided by the divisor, and the result is called quotient. The following diagrams show the parts of a division: dividend, divisor, quotient, remainder. Scroll down the page for more examples and solutions long division. Division…

  • Greater than & Less than

    In these lessons, we learn how to compare numbers, whether a number is greater than or less than another number. Sometimes, we may be asked to compare numbers. We may need to determine whether a particular number is greater than or less than another number. For more practice comparing numbers using the symbols (<, >,…

  • Place Value Chart For Whole Numbers

    Each digit in a whole number has a place value, based on its position from the right, as seen in the following place value chart. Scroll down the page for more examples and solutions. The value of a digit in the number is the digit multiplied by the place value. The following table shows examples to distinguish between…

  • Python Disjoint Sets

    Summary: in this tutorial, you’ll learn about disjoint sets and how to use the Python isdisjoint() method to check if two sets are disjoint. Introduction to Python disjoint sets Two sets are disjoint when they have no elements in common. In other words, two disjoint sets are sets whose intersection is an empty set. For example, the {1,3,5} and {2,4,6} sets are disjoint because they…
