Number theory is the branch of pure


mathematics concerned with the properties of
numbers in general, and integers in particular,
as well as the wider classes of problems that
arise from their study.
Number theory may be subdivided into several
fields, according to the methods used and the
type of questions investigated.

The terms "arithmetic" or "the higher arithmetic"


as nouns are also used to refer to elementary
number theory. These are somewhat older
terms, which are no longer as popular as they
once were. However the word "arithmetic" is
popularly used as an adjective rather than the
more cumbersome phrase "number-theoretic",
and also "arithmetic of" rather than "number
theory of"; e.g., arithmetic geometry, arithmetic
functions, arithmetic of elliptic curves

Number line
In basic mathematics, a number line is a picture of a
straight line on which every point is assumed to
correspond to a real number and every real number to a
point. Often the integers are shown as specially-marked
points evenly spaced on the line. Although this image
only shows the integers from 9 to 9, the line includes all
real numbers, continuing "forever" in each direction, and
also numbers not marked that are between the integers.
It is often used as an aid in teaching simple addition and
subtraction, especially involving negative numbers.

Copyright Amity University

It is divided into two symmetric halves by


the origin, i.e. the number zero.
In advanced mathematics, the expressions
real number line, or real line are typically
used to indicate the above-mentioned
concept that every point on a straight line
corresponds to a single real number, and
vice versa

Composite number
A composite number is a positive integer which has a
positive divisor other than one or itself. In other words a
composite number is any positive integer greater than
one that is not a prime number.
So, if n > 0 is an integer and there are integers 1 < a, b <
n such that n = a b, then n is composite. By definition,
every integer greater than one is either a prime number
or a composite number. The number one is a unit it is
neither prime nor composite. For example, the integer 14
is a composite number because it can be factored as
2 7. Likewise, the integers 2 and 3 are not composite
numbers because each of them can only be divided by
one and itself.

The first 105 composite numbers (sequence


A002808 in OEIS) are
4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 22, 24,
25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40,

Every composite number can be written as


the product of two or more (not necessarily
distinct) primes; furthermore, this
representation is unique up to the order of
the factors. This is called the fundamental
theorem of arithmetic.
Wilson's theorem provides a test for
whether a number is prime or composite

Natural Number
Natural numbers are the set of all non fractional numbers
from 1 to infinity. Natural numbers are denoted by N. the
set N would have the elements 1,2,3,4.and so on.
Whole Numbers
Whole Numbers are the set of natural numbers and 0
,simply the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, (and so on)

No Fractions!
Counting Numbers
Counting Numbers are Whole Numbers, but without the
zero. Because you can't "count" zero. So they are 1, 2,
3, 4, 5, (and so on).

Copyright Amity University

Integers
Integers are like whole numbers, but they also
include negative numbers ... but still no
fractions allowed!
So, integers can be negative {-1, -2,-3, -4, -5,
}, positive {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, }, or zero {0}
We can put that all together like this:
Integers = { ..., -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...
}

Prime number
A natural number
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ...
is called a prime or a prime number if it is
greater than 1 and has exactly two divisors, 1
and the number itself. Natural numbers greater
than 1 that are not prime are called composite.

Among the numbers 1 to 6, the numbers 2, 3,


and 5 are the prime numbers, while 1, 4, and 6
are not prime. 1 is excluded as a prime number,
for reasons explained below. 2 is a prime
number, since the only natural numbers dividing
it are 1 and 2. Next, 3 is prime, too: 1 and 3 do
divide 3 without remainder, but 3 divided by 2
gives remainder 1. Thus, 3 is prime. However, 4
is composite, since 2 is another number (in
addition to 1 and 4) dividing 4 without remainder:
4 = 2 2.
Copyright Amity University

5 is again prime: none of the numbers 2, 3, or 4 divide 5.


Next, 6 is divisible by 2 or 3, since
6 = 2 3.
Hence, 6 is not prime. The image at the right illustrates
that 12 is not prime: 12 = 3 4. More generally, no even
number bigger than 2 is prime: any such number n has
at least three distinct divisors, namely 1, 2, and n. This
implies that n is not prime. Accordingly, the term odd
prime refers to any prime number greater than 2. In a
similar vein, all prime numbers bigger than 5, written in
the usual decimal system, end in 1, 3, 7 or 9, since even
numbers are multiples of 2 and numbers ending in 0 or 5
are multiples of 5.
Copyright Amity University

For any natural number n, 1 and n divide n without remainder.


Therefore, the condition on being a prime can also be restated as: a
number is prime if it is bigger than one and if none of
2, 3, ..., n 1
divides n (without remainder). Yet another way to say the same is: a
number n > 1 is prime if it cannot be written as a product of two
integers a and b, both of which are larger than 1:
n = a b.
The smallest twenty-five prime numbers (all the prime numbers
under 100) are:
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67,
71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97 (sequence A000040 in OEIS).
The set of all primes is often denoted P

Rational Number
In mathematics, a rational number is any
number that can be expressed as the
quotient or fraction a/b of two integers,
with the denominator b not equal to zero.
Since b may be equal to 1, every integer is
a rational number. The set of all rational
numbers is usually denoted by a boldface
Q, which stands for quotient.

Copyright Amity University

Unit fraction
A unit fraction is a rational number
written as a fraction where the numerator
is one and the denominator is a positive
integer. A unit fraction is therefore the
reciprocal of a positive integer, 1/n.
Examples are 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 etc

Least common multiple


In arithmetic and number theory, the least
common multiple (also called the lowest
common multiple or smallest common
multiple) of two integers a and b, usually
denoted by LCM(a, b), is the smallest positive
integer that is a multiple of both a and b. It is
familiar from grade-school arithmetic as the
"lowest common denominator" that must be
determined before two fractions can be added.
Copyright Amity University

This definition may be extended to rational


numbers a and b: the LCM is the smallest
positive rational number that is an integer
multiple of both a and b. (In fact, the definition
may be extended to any two real numbers
whose ratio is a rational number.)
If either a or b is 0, LCM(a, b) is defined to be
zero.
The LCM of more than two integers or rational
numbers is well-defined: it is the smallest
number that is an integer multiple of each of
them

What is the LCM of 4 and 6?
Multiples of 4 are:
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72,

and the multiples of 6 are:
6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, ...
Common multiples of 4 and 6 are simply the numbers that are in
both lists:
12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, ....
So the least common multiple of 4 and 6 is the smallest one of

Logarithm
The logarithm of a number is the exponent by
which a fixed number, the base, has to be raised
to produce that number. For example, the
logarithm of 1000 to base 10 is 3, because 1000
is 10 to the power 3: 1000 = 103 = 101010.
More generally, if x = by, then y is the logarithm
of x to base b, and is written logb(x), so
log10(1000) = 3.

A third example: log10(150) is approximately 2.176,


which lies between 2 and 3, just as 150 lies between 102

1 and logb(1) = 0, since b1 = b and b0 = 1, respectively.

1. Which of the following statements is not correct?


A.log10 10 = 1
B.log (2 + 3) = log (2 x 3)
C.log10 1 = 0
D.log (1 + 2 + 3) = log 1 + log 2 + log 3
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
(a) Since loga a = 1, so log10 10 = 1.
(b) log (2 + 3) = log 5 and log (2 x 3) = log 6 = log 2 + log 3
log (2 +
3) log (2 x 3)
(c) Since loga 1 = 0, so log10 1 = 0.
(d) log (1 + 2 + 3) = log 6 = log (1 x 2 x 3) = log 1 + log 2 + log 3.
So, (b) is incorrect.

Percentage
In mathematics, a percentage is a way of expressing a
number as a fraction of 100 (per cent meaning "per
hundred" in Latin). It is often denoted using the percent
sign, "%", or the abbreviation "pct". For example, 45%
(read as "forty-five percent") is equal to 45/100, or 0.45 .
Percentages are used to express how large/small one
quantity is, relative to another quantity. The first quantity
usually represents a part of, or a change in, the second
quantity, which should be greater than zero. For
example, an increase of $ 0.15 on a price of $ 2.50 is an
increase by a fraction of 0.15/2.50 = 0.06. Expressed as
a percentage, this is therefore a 6% increase.
Copyright Amity University

The fundamental concept to remember when performing


calculations with percentages is that the percent symbol
can be treated as being equivalent to the pure number
constant 1 / 100 = 0.01 , for example 35% of 300 can be
written as (35/100) 300 = 105.
To find the percentage that a single unit represents out
of a whole of N units, divide 100% by N. For instance, if
you have 1250 apples, and you want to find out what
percentage of these 1250 apples a single apple
represents, 100%/1250 = (100/1250)% provides the
answer of 0.08%. So, if you give away one apple, you
have given away 0.08% of the apples you had. Then, if
instead you give away 100 apples, you have given away
100 0.08% = 8% of your 1250 apples.

Copyright Amity University

To calculate a percentage of a percentage, convert both


percentages to fractions of 100, or to decimals, and multiply them.
For example, 50% of 40% is:
(50/100) (40/100) = 0.50 0.40 = 0.20 = 20/100 = 20%.
It is not correct to divide by 100 and use the percent sign at the
same time. (E.g. 25% = 25/100 = 0.25, not 25% / 100, which actually
is (25/100) / 100 = 0.0025.)
The easy way to calculate Addition in percentage (discount 10% +
5):
y = [(x1+x2) - (x1*x2)/100]
for example: Dept Store promotion: discount 10%+5%, the total
discount is not 15%, but:
y = [(10% + 5%) (10% * 5%) / 100] = [15% 0.5%] = 14.5%

Profit and Loss


Some important concepts
SALES PRICE (SP): The price at which
goods/services are sold
COST PRICE (SP): The expenses occurred in
making a product (or providing a service) and it
includes the price of the raw material.
REVENUE: is compensation received for your
product or services.
COST OF GOODS SOLD: are the variable
expenses related to the sale of your product.

Copyright Amity University

OPERATING EXPENSES: are fixed


expenses, such as rent, and utilities.
OPERATING INCOME: is profit after
operating income.
EARNINGS BEFORE TAXES: is income
including other income and expenses, but
before taxes.
INCOME TAXES: are federal, state, and
local taxes.
Copyright Amity University

NET EARNINGS: is the profit earned by the business, and it


includes all expenses, including taxes.
If the shop sells a thing for more than they paid for it, then the
difference is the 'profit':
profit = selling price - cost price
If the shop sells a thing for less than they paid for it, then the
difference is the 'loss':
loss = cost price - selling price
Both profit and loss can be expressed either in dollars, OR as a
percentage of the cost price.

Profit Percentage = (Profit / Cost Price) * 100


Occasionally profit is also mentioned in terms of sales price i.e
Profit on selling price= (Profit / Sales Price) * 100

Copyright Amity University

Several problem types based on these formulas are


discussed in the examples below
Q1. If a merchant offers a discount of 40% on the
marked price of his goods and thus ends up selling at
cost price, what was the % mark up?
ANS: If the merchant offers a discount of 40% on the
marked price, then the goods are sold at 60% of the
marked price.
The question further states that when the discount
offered is 40%, the merchant sells at cost price.
Therefore, selling @ 40% discount = 60% of marked
price (M) = cost price (C)
i.e., a mark up 66.66%

sold it for Rs 6000. Find his profit or loss
percent.
Answer: Here C.P. of the almirah = Rs 4500
S.P. of the almirah = Rs 6000
Since S.P. > C.P., there is a profit

Q3. A trader professes to sell his goods at a loss of 8%


but weights 900 grams in place of a kg weight. Find his
real loss or gain per cent ?
Answer: The trader professes to sell his goods at a loss
of 8%. Therefore, Selling Price = (100 - 8)% of Cost
Price
or SP = 0.92CP
But, when he uses weights that measure only 900 grams
while he claims to measure 1 kg.
Hence, CP of 900gms = 0.90 * Original CP
So, he is selling goods worth 0.90CP at 0.92CP
Therefore, he makes a profit of 0.02 CP on his cost of
0.9 CP

Speed, Time & Distance


We define speed as distance divided by time,
Speed = distance /time (D=ST)
but once we have the equation, we can use any
of its variations,
speed = distance / time ,
distance = speed * time and
time = distance / speed to compute any one of
the quantities when we happen to know the
other two.

Copyright Amity University

For example, suppose we drive for 2 hours


at 30 miles per hour, for a total of 60 miles.
If we know the time and the speed, we can
find the distance: 2 hours * 30 miles/hour =
60 miles If we know the time and the
distance, we can find the speed: 60 miles /
2 hours = 30 miles/hour
Distance is directly proportional to
Velocity when time is constant

1. A car travels at 30km/hr for the first 2 hrs & then 40km/h for the next 2hrs.
Find the ratio of distance traveled
S1/S2=V1/V2=3/4
2. Two cars leave simultaneously from points A & B (100km apart)& they
meet at a point 40 km from A. What is Va/Vb?
T is constant so V1/V2=S1/S2=40/60=4/6
3. A train meets with an accidient and moves at 3/4th its original speed. Due
to this , it is 20 mins late. Find the original time for the journey beyond the
point of accident?
Method1 : Think about 2 diff. Situations , 1st with accident and another w/o
accident , then S is constant
So V1/V2=T1/T2 =>V1/[3/4)*V2]=(T1+20)/T1
=>4/3=(T1+20)/T1 =>T1=60
Method 2: Velocity decreases by 25% so time will increase by 33.3%

Q1 A boat can travel with a speed of 13 km/hr in still


water. If the speed of the stream is 4 km/hr, find the time
taken by the boat to go 68 km downstream.

A.2 hours
B.
3 hours

C.4 hours
D.
5 hours
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Speed downstream = (13 + 4) km/hr = 17 km/hr.
Time taken to travel 68 km downstream =
[68/17=
= 4 hrs].

2. A man's speed with the current is 15 km/hr


and the speed of the current is 2.5 km/hr. The
man's speed against the current is:

A.8.5 km/hr B.
9 km/hr

C.10 km/hr D.
12.5 km/hr
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Man's rate in still water = (15 - 2.5) km/hr = 12.5
km/hr.
Man's rate against the current = (12.5 - 2.5)
km/hr = 10 km/hr.

Circular motion
The circular motion is rotation along a circle: a circular
path or a circular orbit. It can be uniform, that is, with
constant angular rate of rotation, or non-uniform, that is,
with a changing rate of rotation. The rotation around a
fixed axis of a three-dimensional body involves circular
motion of its parts. The equations describing circular
motion of an object do not take size or geometry into
account, rather, the motion of a point mass in a plane is
assumed. In practice, the center of mass of a body can
be considered to undergo circular motion.

The relative velocity of 2 bodies moving around


a circle in the same direction is taken as (V1
V2) and while moving in opposite direction is
taken as (V1+V2)
First Meeting Three or more bodies start moving
simultaneously from the same point on the
circumference of the circle . They will 1st meet
again in the LCM of the times that the fastest
runner will takes in totally overlapping each of
the slower runners

First meeting time = Circumference /


Relative velocity
First Meeting at starting point The first
meeting at the starting point will occur
after a time that is obtained by the LCM of
the times that each of the bodies takes the
complete one full round.

VERY SHORT ANSWER TYPE QUESTIONS :


Q.1 Give an example of motion in which
displacement and distances are not equal but
speed remains constant during the motion.
Sol. Uniform circular motion.
Q.2 Can an object be accelerated without
speeding up or slowing down?
Sol. Yes. When an object is in uniform
circular motion, its speed remains constant
but there is an acceleration towards centre of
circular path.

Q.3 Write S.I. unit and dimensions of angular


velocity.
Sol. Radian per second (rad s.1) Dimensions
[T.1]
Q.4 What do you mean by uniform angular
velocity.
Sol. If a body covers equal angles intervals of
time then the angular velocity of the body is
called uniform angular velocity.

Q.5 Define average angular acceleration.


Sol. Average angular acceleration is defined as the ratio of the
change in angular velocity to the time taken by the body to
undergo this change
Q.6 Write the S.I. unit and dimensions of angular acceleration.
Sol. Unit radian sec.2. Dimensions [M0L0T.2]
Q.7 What is the direction of velocity vector of a particle in
uniform circular motion.
Sol. The direction of velocity vector of a particle in uniform
circular motion is along the tangent to the circular path.

Q.8 Uniform circular motion is an example of


accelerated motion. Give reason.
Sol. Yes. uniform circular motion is accelerated
motion. In this motion the direction of velocity
changes continuously.
Q.9 What provides the centripetal force to satellite
revolving around the earth?
Sol. The centripetal force of the satellite revolving around
the earth is provided by the gravitational force between
the earth and satellite.
Q.10 Write the relation between, the linear velocity (v),
angular velocity (w) and radius of the circular path (r).
Sol. v = rw
