Prime numbers are numbers that only have two factors; 1 and itself, while composite numbers are numbers that have more than two factors excluding 1 and itself.
8 = 1,2,4,8; therefore, 8 is a composite number 5= 1 and 5; therefore, 5 is a prime number 12 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12; therefore, 12 is a composite number |
Numbers that only have two dividers and two factors; namely, itself and 1 are called prime numbers.
Numbers with more than two dividers and factors; except for itself and 1 are called composite numbers. 8: 1×8=8 8×1= 8 2×4= 8 8÷1= 8 8÷2= 4 8÷4= 2 8÷8= 1 Therefore, 8 is a composite number. 5: 1×5= 5 5×1= 5 5÷1= 5 5÷5= 1 Therefore, 5 is a prime number. 12: 1×12= 12 2×6= 12 3×4= 12 4×3= 12 6×2= 12 12×1= 12 12÷1= 12 12÷2= 6 12÷3= 4 12÷4= 3 12÷6= 2 12÷12= 1 Therefore, 12 is a composite number. |

Equivalent fractions are equal fractions.
½ = 2 quarters and 3 sixths, therefore, ½ = 3⁄6 ¼= 2 eighths, therefore, ¼= 2⁄8 ¾= 6 eighths, therefore, ¾= 6⁄8
|
Equivalent fractions are fractions with varying denominators and numerators with similar proportions.
Multiplication can be used to determine the equivalent fractions. 3 × (½) = therefore, ½ = 3⁄6 2 × (¼) = therefore, ¼ = 2⁄8 2 × (¾) = , therefore, ¾ = 6⁄8 |

Assessment Description
Creating videos allows teachers to save hours of repetitive teaching. Students also thrive if they can view a concept multiple times. It is important as a teacher that you can create short videos for your students to help them through the class.
Directions:
Use the tables below to do the following:
- Select two concepts that were covered in Topics 3 and 4 of the course. Then, select one example problem for each concept you selected.
- Search the internet to find a video that teaches each of your selected concepts.
- Create your own videos that teach the concepts in a different way than the videos you found on the internet. (You will need to upload your video to a video-sharing site that provides a link that you can paste below. Your video should not be “searchable” within the video-sharing site. If you upload your video to YouTube, select the “unlisted” option so it is not searchable. Ensure that others can access and view your linked video prior to submitting it to the LMS.)
- Solve your selected example problem twice, using the method employed in the video you found online and using the method employed in the video you created. (Please show all work. (Hint: If you solve the problem on a piece of paper, just take a picture and copy and paste it into a Word document. You do not have to type to solve the answer.)
