Number System & Simplification 
The ten symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 are called digits, which can represent any number.
Natural Numbers:
  • These are the numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.) that are used for counting. It is denoted by N.
  • There are infinite natural numbers and the smallest natural number is one (1).
Even numbers:
  • Natural numbers which are divisible by 2 are even numbers. It is denoted by E.
  • E = 2, 4, 6, 8, ….
  • Smallest even number is 2. There is no largest even number.
Odd numbers:
  • Natural numbers which are not divisible by 2 are odd numbers.
  • It is denoted by O.
  • O = 1, 3, 5, 7, ….
  • Smallest odd number is 1.
  • There is no largest odd number.

Based on divisibility, there could be two types of natural numbers:
Prime and Composite
  1. Prime Numbers: Natural numbers which have exactly two factors, i.e., 1 and the number itself are called prime numbers. The lowest prime number is 2. 2 is also the only even prime number.
  2. Composite Numbers: It is a natural number that has atleast one divisor different from unity and itself.
Every composite number can be factorized into its prime factors.
For example: 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3. Hence, 24 is a composite number.
The smallest composite number is 4.
Whole Numbers:
  • The natural numbers along with zero (0), from the system of whole numbers.
  • It is denoted by W.
  • There is no largest whole number and
  • The smallest whole number is 0.
Integers:
  • The number system consisting of natural numbers, their negative and zero is called integers.
  • It is denoted by Z or I.
  • The smallest and the largest integers cannot be determined.
Real Numbers:
  • All numbers that can be represented on the number line are called real numbers.
  • It is denoted by R.
  •  R+: Positive real numbers and R– : Negative real numbers.
Real numbers = Rational numbers + Irrational numbers.
  1. Rational numbers:
  • Any number that can be put in the form of , where p and q are integers and q 0, is called a rational number.
  • It is denoted by Q.
  • Every integer is a rational number.
  • Zero (0) is also a  rational number. The smallest and largest rational numbers cannot be determined. Every fraction (and decimal fraction) is a rational number
2. Irrational numbers:
  • The numbers which are not rational or which cannot be put in the form of , where p and q are integers and q 0, is called irrational number.
  • It is denoted by Q’ or Qc.
Fraction:  A fraction is a quantity which expresses a part of the whole.
TYPES OF FRACTIONS:
  1. Proper fraction : If numerator is less than its denominator, then it is a proper fraction.
  2. Improper fraction: If numerator is greater than or equal to its denominator, then it is a improper fraction.
  3. Mixed fraction: it consists of an integer and a proper fraction.
  4. Equivalent fraction/Equal fractions: Fractions with same value.
  5. Like fractions: Fractions with same denominators.
  6. Unlike fractions: Fractions with different denominators.
  7. Simple fractions: Numerator and denominator are integers.
  8. Complex fraction: Numerator or denominator or both are fractional numbers.
  9. Decimal fraction: Denominator with the powers of 10.
  10. Vulgar fraction: Denominators are not the power of 10.
Operations: The following operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are valid for real numbers.
  • Commutative property of addition: a + b = b + a
  • Associative property of addition: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
  • Commutative property of multiplication:  a * b = b * a
  • Associative property of multiplication:   (a * b) * c = a *  (b * c)
  • Distributive property of multiplication with respect to addition (a + b) * c = a * c + b * c
Complex numbers:
  • A number of the form a + bi, where a and b are real number and i =  (imaginary number) is called a complex number.
  • It is denoted by C.
  • For Example: 5i (a = 0 and b = 5),  + 3i (a =  and b = 3)
DIVISIBILITY RULES
  • Divisibility by 2: A number is divisible by 2 if it’s unit digit is even or 0.
  • Divisibility by 3: A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of it’s digit are divisible by 3.
  • Divisibility by 4: A number is divisible by 4 if the last 2 digits are divisible by 4, or if the last two digits are 0’s.
  • Divisibility by 5: A number is divisible by 5 if it’s unit digit is 5 or 0.
  • Divisibility by 6: A number is divisible by 6 if it is simultaneously divisible by 2 and 3.
  • Divisibility by 7: We use osculator (-2) for divisibility test.
  • Divisible by 11: In a number, if difference of sum of digit at even places and sum of digit at odd places is either 0 or multiple of 11, then no. is divisible by 11.
  • Divisible by 13: we use (+4) as osculator.
  • Divisible by 17: We use (-5) as osculator.
  • Divisible by 19: We use (+2) as osculator.
  • Divisibility by a Composite number: A number is divisible by a given composite number if it is divisible by all factors of composite number.
DIVISION ALGORITHM:
Dividend = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder where, Dividend = The number which is being divided Divisor = The number which performs the division process Quotient = Greatest possible integer as a result of division Remainder = Rest part of dividend which cannot be further divided by the divisor.
Complete remainder:
  • A complete remainder is the remainder obtained by a number by the method of successive division.
  • Complete reminder = [I divisor × II remainder] + I remainder
  • Two different numbers x and y when divided by a certain divisor D leave remainder r1and r2 When the sum of them is divided by the same divisor, the remainder is r3. Then, divisor D = r1 + r2 – r3
  • Method to find the number of different divisors (or factors) (including 1 and itself) of any composite number N:STEP I: Express N as a product of prime numbers as  N = xa × yb× zcSTEP II: Number of different divisors (including l and itself) = (a + 1) (b + 1) (c +1) …..
Counting Number of Zeros
  •  Sometimes we come across problems in which           we have to count number of zeros at the end of             factorial of any numbers. for example-           Number of zeros at the end of 10!
  •  10! = 10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 ×1
  •  Here basically we have to count number of     fives, because multiplication of five by any    even number will result in 0 at the end of final    product. In 10! we have 2 fives thus total number of zeros are 2.

Coral Reefs in India

ssc preparation, important competetion questions, current affairs of india, latest question asked in competetion papers, Coral Reefs in India Coral Reefs  a unique ecosystem of  tropical regions,  which are home to 25% of marine organisms and extended in less than 25% of total marine area, are facing problems of extinction mainly due to  anthropogenic factors. India in-spite of being a tropical nation has very less area of coral reefs.The  absence of coral in Bay of Benga l can be attributed to the immense volume of fresh water and silt carried by mighty rivers of India, large population base on eastern coast, heavy monsoonal rainfall etc. In light of Coral reefs being critical both for people and marine organism,the conservation programme for coral reefs should be accelerated and properly managed. What are coral reefs? Coral reefs are shallow water, tropical marine ecosystems which are characterized by a remarkably high biomass production and a marine biodiver

Bhakti Movement

Image
Bhakti Movement - Origin, Saints, Timeline Vaishnava and Shaiva devotionalism were given new emphasis and expression by the Alwars and Nayanars saints of South India in the early medieval period. As per the tradition, there were 12 Alwars and 63 Nayanars. Using devotion to achieve salvation was a key component of the Bhakti movement which was started as a religious reformation in medieval India. The period of the 8th to 18th century is dedicated to the Bhakti movement where a number of saints (Hindu, Muslim, Sikh) evolved as the messiah of Bhakti (devotion), teaching people the transition of life from normalcy to enlightenment through salvation. Bhakti Movement (8th – 18th Century) Spread of Islam in India has also resulted in the Medieval Bhakti Movement. The Bhakti Movement in Medieval India is of diverse way. The thinking of Bhakti Reformers’ like that of Kabir, Nana and Ramananda were shaped by the preaching of Sufi teachers. Sufism Sufism was a liberal reform movement within Islam
