Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experime…

Pidgeonhole Principle 1. The floor of x, written [x], also called the integral part, integer part, or greatest integer, is defined as the greatest integer less than or equal to x. Similarly the ceiling of x, written [x], is the smallest integer greater than or equal to x. Try figuring out the answers to the following: (a) [2.1] (b) [2] (c) [2.9] (d) [2.1] (e) [2] (f) [2.9] 2. The simple pidgeonhole principle states that, if you have N places and k items (k> N), then at least one hole must have more than one item in it. We tried this with chairs and students: Assume you have N = 12 chairs and k = 18 students. Then at least one chair must have more than one student on it. 3. The general pidgeonhole principle states that, if you have N places and k items, then at least one hole must have [] items or more in it. Try this out with (a) n = 10 chairs and k = 15 students (b) n = 10 chairs and k = 23 students (c) n = 10 chairs and k = 20 students 4. There are 34 problems on these pages, and we…

The everything combined problem Suppose that a computer science laboratory has 15 workstations and 10 servers. A cable can be used to directly connect a workstation to a server. For each server, only one direct connection to that server can be active at any time. 1. How many cables would you need to connect each station to each server? 2. How many stations can be used at one time? 3. How many stations can not be used at any one time? 4. How many ways are there to pick 10 stations out of 15? 5. (This one is tricky) We want to guarantee that at any time any set of 10 or fewer workstations can simultaneously access different servers via direct connections. What is the minimum number of direct connections needed to achieve this goal?
