Background Tutorials

Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to hundredths, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method and explain the reasoning used.
- What are the Commutative Properties of Addition and Multiplication?
  
  The commutative property is a fundamental building block of math, but it only works for addition and multiplication. This tutorial defines the commutative property and provides examples of how to use it.
Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.
- What is an Exponent?
  
  If you have a repeated multiplication, you could write it using exponents! This tutorial introduces exponents and explains how they're used.
- How Do You Convert a Number in Expanded Form into Exponential Form?
  
  Exponential form is a quick way to show that a number should be multiplied by itself a certain number of times. In this tutorial, see how to write a repeated multiplication in exponential form!
- How Do You Convert a Number in Exponential Form into Expanded Form?
  
  Did you know that exponents are just a quick way to show repeated multiplication? In this tutorial, see how to expand out a value in exponential form to see what it really represents!
- How Do You Evaluate an Exponent?
  
  Exponents just indicate repeated multiplication. Watch this tutorial to see how you can evaluate an exponent by first w
Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers.
- What Are Numerical and Algebraic Expressions?
  
  An expression is just a mathematical phrase. In this tutorial, you'll learn about two popular types of expressions: numerical and algebraic expressions. A numerical expression contains numbers and operations. An algebraic expression is almost exactly the same except it also contains variables. Check out this tutorial to learn about these two popular kinds of expressions!
Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical expressions.
- What's the Power of a Product Rule?
  
  There's a great trick for raising a product of two number to an exponent, and this tutorial shows you exactly that trick works.
