Darab dan Bahagi Wang

先乘后除 = darab dahulu 第一步：七乘一千三百八十，得九千六百六十令吉，这是七台烤炉的总价。第二步：九千六百六十除以三，得三千二百二十令吉，这是每间分店要分担的钱。 例子：6 × RM500 ÷ 3 = RM3 000 ÷ 3 = RM1 000。 注意：第一步的积就是第二步的被除数。

multiply first = darab dahulu Step 1: 7 × RM1 380 = RM9 660, the total for 7 ovens. Step 2: RM9 660 ÷ 3 = RM3 220, the share for each branch. Example: 6 × RM500 ÷ 3 = RM3 000 ÷ 3 = RM1 000. Watch out: the answer to step 1 is the number divided in step 2.

先除后乘 = bahagi dahulu 四十五位营员的营费一共三万八千二百五十令吉，要求诗蒂学校十二位营员的营费，先求一个人：三万八千二百五十除以四十五，得八百五十令吉。再乘十二，得一万零二百令吉。 例子：10 本书 RM120，3 本 = RM120 ÷ 10 × 3 = RM36。 注意：先求“一个”的价钱，再求“几个”。

divide first = bahagi dahulu The camp fee for 45 participants is RM38 250. To find the fee for Siti's school's 12 participants, first find one: RM38 250 ÷ 45 = RM850. Then × 12 = RM10 200. Example: 10 books cost RM120, so 3 books cost RM120 ÷ 10 × 3 = RM36. Watch out: find the amount for one first, then for several.

约简 = permudahkan 先乘二十四再除以八，数字会很大。可以先把二十四和八约简：二十四除以八等于三，所以整道题变成三乘一千八百三十六令吉四十五仙，得五千五百零九令吉三十五仙，简单多了。 例子：12 × RM250 ÷ 4 = 3 × RM250 = RM750。 注意：只有乘数和除数可以这样约简。

simplify = permudahkan Multiplying by 24 first gives a big number. Instead simplify 24 and 8: 24 ÷ 8 = 3, so the question becomes 3 × RM1 836.45 = RM5 509.35, which is much easier. Example: 12 × RM250 ÷ 4 = 3 × RM250 = RM750. Watch out: only the number multiplied by and the number divided by can be simplified like this.

找错 = cari kesilapan 算式是三万六千除以四再乘六，要从左到右算：先除以四得九千，再乘六得五万四千令吉。巴拉先把四和六相乘，变成除以二十四，改变了算式的意思，所以答案一千五百是错的。安娜是对的。 例子：RM100 ÷ 2 × 5 = RM50 × 5 = RM250，不是 RM100 ÷ 10 = RM10。 注意：乘除混合要从左到右。

find the mistake = cari kesilapan The sentence is RM36 000 ÷ 4 × 6, worked from left to right: ÷ 4 = RM9 000, then × 6 = RM54 000. Bala multiplied 4 × 6 first and divided by 24, which changes the meaning, so RM1 500 is wrong. Ana is right. Example: RM100 ÷ 2 × 5 = RM50 × 5 = RM250, not RM100 ÷ 10 = RM10. Watch out: with × and ÷, work from left to right.

先乘后除 = darab dahulu 算式先乘后除，按从左到右：先求积，再除。也可以先约简：金额是五的倍数，可以先把金额除以五，再乘前面的数，这样数字比较小。两种方法结果一定一样。 例子：3 × RM400 ÷ 2 = RM1 200 ÷ 2 = RM600，或 3 × (RM400 ÷ 2) = 3 × RM200 = RM600。 注意：乘完一定还要除；只乘不除，金额会大好几倍。

multiply first = darab dahulu The sentence multiplies and then divides, so from left to right: find the product, then divide. Or simplify first: the amount is a multiple of 5, so divide it by 5 and then multiply, which keeps the numbers small. Both ways must agree. Example: 3 × RM400 ÷ 2 = RM1 200 ÷ 2 = RM600, or 3 × (RM400 ÷ 2) = 3 × RM200 = RM600. Watch out: after multiplying you still have to divide; skipping it makes the amount several times too big.

从左到右 = dari kiri ke kanan 这题先除后乘。第一步把金额除以六，得到一份；第二步把一份乘五，得到五份。不能先把六和五相乘再去除，那会改变算式的意思。 例子：RM800 ÷ 4 × 3，先得 RM200，再得 RM600。 注意：第一步得到的只是一份，还没有乘五。

left to right = dari kiri ke kanan This sentence divides and then multiplies. Step 1 divides the amount by 6 to get one part; step 2 multiplies that part by 5. Do not multiply 6 × 5 first and then divide; that changes the meaning. Example: RM800 ÷ 4 × 3; first RM200, then RM600. Watch out: step 1 gives only one part; it still has to be multiplied by 5.
