Arithmetic or arithmetics (from the Greek word αριθμός = number) is the oldest and most elementary branch of mathematics, used by almost everyone, for tasks ranging from simple day-to-day counting to advanced science and business calculations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. In common usage, the word refers to a branch of (or the forerunner of) mathematics which records elementary properties of certain operations on numbers. Professional mathematicians sometimes use the term (higher) arithmetic when referring to number theory, but this should not be confused with elementary arithmetic.

What does it mean to be good at Arithmetic but bad at Algebra?
Q. I am good with arithmetic but bad at algebra and geometry. I wanted to go into the Computer Information Science or Comp Sci field. Is that a no no?
Asked by Mr. LoveMaster - Fri May 22 23:04:04 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Arithmetic is basic numbers, adding, subtracting... Algebra is finding the value of an unknown variable, and roots/ squares/cubes..etc. Computer Science field requires a whole lot of math. Like 6 more math courses after intermediate algebra. Who told you, you sucked at algebra? It is actually really fun if you apply yourself!

What is a fundamental theorem of arithmetic?
Q. Help me! I have to do a paper on fundamental theorem of arithmetic? What IS it?

A. "In number theory, the fundamental theorem of arithmetic (or unique-prime-factorizatio n theorem) states that every natural number greater than 1 can be written as a unique product of prime numbers."

How do you solve this arithmetic progression Q?
Q. An arithmetic series has a common difference of 7. Given that the sum of the first 20 terms of the series is 530, find i) the first term of the series, ii) the smallest positive term of the series. Ps. for i) I got a=397 is this correct?
Asked by Chocolate - Sat Mar 28 06:39:33 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Part 1 I hate remembering formulas, so try to think of the sum to n terms as the average of the first and last term multiplied by the number of terms. The first is a, the last is (a+19*7) Sum of the first 20 terms is (a + (a+19*7))/2 * 20 = 530 a=-40 Part 2 -40+(n-1)7 > 0 n > 6.71, meaning the 7th term would give you a positive number: Check the 7th term: -40 + 6*7 = 2 Sounds fine.
