  5. Mathematical and Numeration Systems • A mathematical system is made up of • three components: • 1. a set of elements; • one or more operations for combining • the elements; • 3. one or more relations for comparing the • elements. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  6. Mathematical and Numeration Systems The various ways of symbolizing and working with the counting numbers are called numeration systems. The symbols of a numeration system are called numerals. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  7. Example: Counting by Tallying Tally sticks and tally marks have been used for a long time. Each mark represents one item. For example, eight items are tallied by writing © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  8. Counting by Grouping Counting by grouping allows for less repetition of symbols and makes numerals easier to interpret. The size of the group is called the base (usually ten) of the number system. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  9. Ancient Egyptian Numeration – Simple Grouping The ancient Egyptian system is an example of a simplegrouping system. It used ten as its base and the various symbols are shown on the next slide. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  11. Example: Egyptian Numeral Write the number below in our system. Solution 2 (100,000) = 200,000 3 (1,000) = 3,000 1 (100) = 100 4 (10) = 40 5 (1) = 5 Answer: 203,145 © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  12. Traditional Chinese Numeration – Multiplicative Grouping A multiplicative grouping system involves pairs of symbols, each pair containing a multiplier and then a power of the base. The symbols for a Chinese version are shown on the next slide. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  15. Example: Chinese Numeral Solution a) b) 7000 200 400 0 (tens) 1 80 Answer: 201 2 Answer: 7482 © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  16. Positional Numeration A positional system is one where the various powers of the base require no separate symbols. The power associated with each multiplier can be understood by the position that the multiplier occupies in the numeral. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  17. Positional Numeration In a positional numeral, each symbol (called a digit) conveys two things: 1. Face value – the inherent value of the symbol. 2. Place value – the power of the base which is associated with the position that the digit occupies in the numeral. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  18. Positional Numeration To work successfully, a positional system must have a symbol for zero to serve as a placeholder in case one or more powers of the base are not needed. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved

  19. Hindu-Arabic Numeration – Positional One such system that uses positional form is our system, the Hindu-Arabic system. The place values in a Hindu-Arabic numeral, from right to left, are 1, 10, 100, 1000, and so on. The three 4s in the number 45,414 all have the same face value but different place values. © 2008 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved
