MATH 151 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Toothpick
Document Summary
1. 2 page 25: 1, 2: as in practice exercise 3, if one toothpick represents 1, then the given collection represents, other possibilities are shown in the table, base-ten block sketches will be shown here. Similar sketches can be used for the bundled objects model: figure 1. 6 represents 0. 26 if we consider each block to represent 0. 01. Then by counting we see that we have 6 blocks (or 6 hundredths) and 2 bundles of 10 blocks (or 2 tenths). Then by counting we see that we have 4 blocks (or 4 tenths) and 3 bundles of 10 blocks (or 3 ones) and 1 bundle of. Then by counting we see that we have 8 blocks (or 8 hundredths) and 2 bundles of 10 blocks (or 2 tenths) and 1 bundle of 100 blocks (1 one). If we decided to have each block stand for 0. 00001 instead, then.
