The difficulties of this game was that I had forgotten it was from top to bottom and I did it from bottom to top so I got some wrong. The rest of the game was easy except for the fractions and decimals. Those were hard because first I was subtracting and adding whole numbers then I move on to the fractions part and it gets hard. I always struggled a little with fractions and decimals. I think that the fractions can be the most challenging. But if you don't have trouble with it then that will be very easy for you. Now that I have had other teachers review them it gets easier every time I do them!
We use the closed dot for equal to and greater than or equal to. We use the opened dot for greater than or less. If you put a arrow with a closed dot on an equation that's only greater than or less than, you would think that numbers included when its not. That would make the whole equation wrong. In my Pre- algerbra I didn't understand it so well but I didn't ask questions. But when I did it got easier then I thought it would be. It can be easier then you think it is because, if you don't ask then it will get harder every time you don't ask a teacher to help you. But if you do ask then it will probably get easier.
Exponets are numbers that are meing multiplyed by that number. For example 5 and 5 as an exponet. You have to multiple 5 and 5. Like this 5x5x5x5x5, exponets simplfy that to look smaller. At first I didn't get it, this was in the 3rd or 4th grade. Then my teacher explained it like how I did right now. These exponets are just a way of simplfing. So that's what exponents are, they can be confusing but all you have ti think about is its a way of simplification.
