This clip defines the three components that make up a division problem: the dividend, divisor, and quotient.
The concepts of corporate debt and equity. The role of stocks in funding a business, preferred and common stock are contrasted, and the concept of bonds as debt owed to its bondholders is discussed.
This clip summarizes dividing decimal fractions, explaining that, "
in any division problem involving decimals, the first step is to make sure the quotient is a whole number." The clip explains how that is done, then notes that "
we place the deci...
This clip explains that the rules for dividing signed numbers are the same as for multiplying signed numbers, "
except, of course, that we divide the absolute values instead of multiplying." When the signs are the same, the quotient is positive. Wh...
This clip presents the dividing fractions rule of "invert and multiply," explaining that the divisor is inverted and the dividend is multiplied. "Invert means the numerator and the denominator change places," the clip states. The clip also asks and ...
This clip explains that, "
division of fractions, like division of whole numbers, is expected to work as the opposite of multiplication." The clip then provides examples of how it does so, adding that the relationship between division and multiplic...
This clip puts the rule for dividing fractions known as "invert and multiply" to the test. "To divide one fraction by another," the clip states, "multiply the first fraction--the dividend--by the reciprocal of the second fraction--the divisor."
This clip explains that, when dividing signed numbers, if the divisor and dividend have the same sign, the quotient is positive.
This clip summarizes dividing fractions, comparing it to the division of whole numbers, and examining the "invert and multiply" rule for dividing one fraction by another.
This clip reviews the concept of changing divisors that are decimals into whole numbers. The clip then poses the following question: "(Once that's done) where do we put the decimal point of the answer, the quotient?" The clip then explains that "
