Week 3 – Math 10

This week was a good week for me, in my opinion. I say this because I learned a lot of things that I didn’t know in grade 9; to my surprise, they weren’t super tricky. I believe this was the case because I was very focused in class and committed to ensuring I knew what I was doing. In other words, I would try not to get distracted and make sure that I finish my work on time. I learned how to find the LCM of two numbers as well as the GCF of two numbers. Before coming into this class, I probably couldn’t do that if you asked me to. To find the GCF or LCM,  I learned that you have to use prime factorization (which is something that I think I am very good at and know how to use it) to be able to find them. If I didn’t know how to find the prime factorization, finding the LCM and the GCF would be a long shot. Although I feel good about this class, I still have a lot of work to do if I want to complete my goal of getting a B.
