reface Distinction in Mathematics-Revision Guide is written for students preparing for tests and examinations as well as the crucial GCE '0' Level Examinations. Ea_ch chapter begins with a set of 'Keynotes'. This is where concepts and various formulae are compiled for pupils' easy reference during revision. It also includes essential formulae from the GCE '0' Level Mathematical Formulae List. Every chapter has a variety of questions for practice and exposure. Emphasis is given to commonly asked questions in examinations to better equip pupils with the skills to answer effectively and efficiently. I sincerely hope that pupils will benefit greatly from this book by maximizing their potential and scoring better grades for tests and examinations. Ivan Lau Kim Soon

Factors and Multiples_ eynotes: 0 Prime factorization 8 Definition: A method to express number as a product of prime factors. Example: Find the product of the prime factors for 7. Solution: 7 -- 6 8 -- - 6 - - :.7 = X Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) and Highest Common Factor (HCF) Definition: (} The smallest common multiple of a two or more numbers is called Lowest Common Multiple (LCM). () The largest common factor of two or more numbers is Highest Common Factors (HCF). Student must know how to find LCM and HCF of a number in the form of ordinary notation and index notation. (a) Ordinary notation Example: Find the HCF and LCM for 7 and 84. Solution: HCF 7,84 6,4 8, 6, 7 HCF = x x = LCM 7, 84 6,4 8, 6 6, 7 7, 7, LCM = X X X 6 X 7 = 504 0 Marshall Cavendish International (Singapore) Private limited. Factors and Multiples
(b) Index notation HCF Consider the smaller power for each of the base LCM Consider the bigger power for each of the base Example: Find the HCF and LCM for 4 x 7 5 x 4 and 8 x x?9. Express your answer in index notation. Solution: HCF 8 Square and square root LCM Definition: Since 4 = 6 and (- 4) = 6, then 6 is known as the square of 4 and - 4.
