Multiples - The result of one number being multipled by another
E.g. 2 times table // 2 x 4 = 8 // 2 x 6 = 12 // 2 x 8 = 16
Factors - A smaller whole number that can be multipled by another whole number.
Prime Number - A number that can only be divided by itself and 1
*1 does not count as a prime or composite number
E.g. 2, 3, 5, 7, 11
HCF - Finding the highest number a part of both the times tables (can be said as Greatest Common Factor)
E.g. HCF of 12 and 8 = 4
LCM - Two different multiplication sets that have the same lowest multiple
E.g. LCM of 8 and 12 = 24

'Percentage of...' means to multiply
E.g. 30% of 25 / 30 percent of 25 = 30% x 25
Divide % by 100
30/100 = 0.3
Multiply decimal by equation number
0.3 x 25

The Treaty of Waitangi is an event that happened 181 years ago between British Representatives and Maori. Every February 6 New Zealand celebrates this event as a national public holiday.
On the Bay of Islands in 1840, over 500 Māori chiefs and the British Representatives had come together to sign what is now known to be New Zealand's founding document.
Being a public holiday, people have their opinions on it. Some see this holiday as a great day to remember the past and to go out and join together with the community. Festivals and showcases are held to commemorate.
Others, however, see this holiday as shameful. They view the remembrance of the many loses New Zealand suffered an embarrassment, some going as far as asking for the holiday to be revoked.I don't have too much of an opinion on whether the holiday should be taken out or not. All I can say is that I understand why people would prefer not to remember such triggering times and why others are happy for the holiday being around.
I was scrolling through social media, you know, the usual, when I came across a post pointing out the difference between empathy, sympathy and compassion. My whole life I used those words interchangeably because I thought they all meant the same thing: feeling sorry for someone. I could have not been more wrong 😓
Here are the actual definitions of the three words and why it's important to remember them!
--------------------
Empathy is feeling the same emotions as the other person.
❝I feel how you feel,❞
The opposite of empathy is unempathetic. Unempathetic people are just people who have not felt what the other person is currently feeling.
--------------------
Sympathy is understanding what the other person is going through.
❝I know how you feel,❞
The opposite of sympathy is unsympathetic. If someone is unsympathetic they are not able to understand the emotions and/or the situation the other person is going through.
--------------------
Compassion is feeling care and warmth for the other person.
❝Is there anything I can do to help?❞
The opposite of compassion is uncompassionate. An uncompassionate person does not help someone during difficulties in their life because they don't care.
--------------------
I always thought that if someone had low/no empathy they were a stink person, but in reality they could have a lot of compassion and sympathy to give! Now this may sound contradictory BUT just because someone might be lacking in one of these three areas, it does not erase the fact that they can still care for others.
Ahh sorry if this next bit doesn't make too much sense, but how I see it an uncompassionate and/or an unsympathetic person can overcome it if they want to. After all, it's nothing permanent. If they so desire to, they can learn ways to become more sincere and eventually grow.
