Haigh, Gordon – Mathematics in School, 1990
Discusses a number series made from the multiplication of numbers to digits. Presents a number series for diverse multiplication numbers. (YP)
Descriptors: Arithmetic, Computation, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics

Anderson, Oliver D. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1990
Discusses arithmetic during long-multiplications and long-division. Provides examples in decimal reciprocals for the numbers 1 through 20; connection with divisibility tests; repeating patterns; and a common fallacy on repeating decimals. (YP)
Descriptors: Arithmetic, Computation, Decimal Fractions, Division

Watson, Jane – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 1991
It is difficult for students to unlearn misconceptions that have been unknowingly reinforced by teachers. The examples "multiplication makes bigger,""pi equals 22/7," and the use of counter examples to demonstrate the numerical property of closure are discussed as potential areas where misconceptions are fostered.

Aslan, Farhad; Duck, Howard – School Science and Mathematics, 1992
P-adic or g-adic sets are sets of elements formed by linear combinations of powers of p, a prime number, or g, a counting number, where the coefficients are whole numbers less than p or g. Discusses exercises illustrating basic numerical operations for p-adic and g-adic sets. Provides BASIC computer programs to verify the solutions. (MDH)
