Pronounciation

 “My favorite teacher gave ______ and ______ extra credit on our project.”


  • Teacher gave something → needs objective pronouns (him, me).
  • Never put me first in a list → put it last.
  • That’s why “him, me” is the only correct choice


πŸŸ₯We are choosing the correct pronouns to complete the sentence.


🟩Identify the grammar rule

The verb is gave.

Who received (got) something?

→ Indirect objects of the verb.


Indirect objects must be in objective case.



Objective-case pronouns:



  • me
  • him
  • her
  • us
  • them




NOT correct (nominative):



  • I
  • he
  • she
  • we
  • they



So in this blank, we must use objective pronouns.


❌ 1. me, him Both are objective case — BUT

Grammar rule: When listing people, “me” should come last.

So me should never come first.


❌ 2. he, I

Both are nominative pronouns.

But the sentence needs objective pronouns (receivers).


❌ 3. him, I

  • him = correct (objective)
  • I = wrong (nominative)








Math

 

1. Integer

  • Integers are whole numbers.

  • They can be positivenegative, or zero.

  • Examples: … -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 …

  • No fractions or decimals. So 1/2 or 3.4 are not integers.


2. Prime number

  • A prime number is a whole number greater than 1

  • It has only two factors: 1 and itself.

  • Examples: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13…

  • 2 is prime (only 1 and 2 divide it).

  • 4 is not prime (1, 2, and 4 divide it).


3. Composite number

  • A composite number is a whole number greater than 1

  • It has more than two factors.

  • Example: 8 → factors are 1, 2, 4, 8 (so composite).

  • 9 → factors 1, 3, 9 (composite).

  • Note: 1 is neither prime nor composite.


4. Even number

  • Any integer that can be divided by 2 with no remainder.

  • Ends in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.

  • Examples: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, -4, -10.


5. Odd number

  • Any integer that cannot be divided evenly by 2.

  • Ends in 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9.

  • Examples: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, -3, -7.


6. Decimal number

  • A number that uses a decimal point.

  • It shows a value between whole numbers.

  • Examples: 0.5, 1.23, 10.07.


7. Decimal point

  • The dot in a decimal number.

  • It separates the ones place from the places after the dot.

  • Example: in 3.14, the dot between 3 and 1 is the decimal point.


8. Decimal place

  • Tells how far a digit is from the decimal point.

  • Example: 0.123

    • 1 is in the tenths place (first place after the dot).

    • 2 is in the hundredths place (second place).

    • 3 is in the thousandths place (third place).


9. Decimal (base 10) system

  • Our usual number system uses 10 digits: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

  • Every number we write uses these digits.

  • Example of another system: binary (base 2) uses only 0 and 1 (used by computers).


10. Rational numbers

  • Numbers that can be written as a fraction of two integers.

  • Includes: integers, fractions, and decimals that stop or repeat.

  • Examples:

    • 5 → 5/1 (rational)

    • 1/2 (rational)

    • 0.75 ( = 75/100 ) (rational)

    • 0.3333… repeating ( = 1/3 ) (rational).


11. Irrational numbers

  • Cannot be written as a simple fraction.

  • Decimal goes on forever and does not repeat in a pattern.

  • Example: Ο€ (pi) ≈ 3.141592… (keeps going, no pattern).

  • √2 is also irrational.


12. Real numbers

  • All rational numbers and all irrational numbers together.

  • Basically, any number that can be put on a number line.

  • Includes: integers, fractions, terminating/repeating decimals, and irrational numbers like Ο€.
