The Earth behaves like a giant bar magnet and as such there is a magnetic field present around it. The Earth’s magnetic field is thought to be caused by flowing liquid metals in the outer core of the planet which causes electric currents and a magnetic field.

Fraction comparison with lowest common denominators.

This video explains how to order fractions by their size.

YouTube video that explains how to use prime factorization to find the highest common factor and lowest common multiple. It is very simple using the method described in the video.

This video looks at set notation, Venn diagrams and probability.

Sometimes, when the probability problems are complex, it can be helpful to graph the situation. Tree diagrams and Venn diagrams are two tools that can be used to visualize and solve conditional probabilities.

This online lesson explores these two tools.

Using a Venn Diagram, students identify similarities and differences between two things by listing certain features in a chart containing overlapping circles. Venn Diagrams can be used to summarize, compare, or comprehend information.
