Standard form Block 6 : Ten ( 10 )

About This Lesson

Standard form
6. Sixth Block (Ten 10)

a. Skymenu Point Line (SPL):
Using SPL, 1 is the first natural counting number. In terms of units, there are 9 numbers. That is, 1, 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9.

0(zero) is not considered as a unit. When numbers starts from 1, so from nothing (zero) to 1, thus counting starts from 1. 9 is the last unit digit, the next number is 10.

10 is written by taking the first digit 1 and going back to pick zero (0), that is starting all over again , a come back to start afresh. Therefore from zero (nothing) to 1, then from 1 going back to zero (nothing) gives 10.
Ten gives one allowance , a new opportunity , a fresh page because written one ( 1 ) is starting while writing 0 zero is like a fresh page again.

b. The importance of 10 in a given standard: Pake Dot Line
All systems has a resetting formula. That is, 10 is provided in all systems and principles. Going back to zero in terms of standard means resetting the standard by giving the decimal another chance or test.

c. The application:
i. All examination bodies provide second chances (10) for their candidates. For example; West African Examination Council (WAEC) or Joint Admission Matriculation Board (JAMB) still provides another chance/test for her candidates to work hard for the next year in order to pass the standard.
ii. All laws provides a second chance (10) for the offenders or defaulters.

iii. Any man who has standard (law) must go back to zero (10), that is forgive those who offends him/her by giving them another chance/mercy. As one holds the law ( 1 ) on one hand forgiveness ( 0 , zero , ) is at the other hand. Zero is like erasing what was written giving raise to a new page/ beginning.
Therefore, If you say you have standard were is your 10.
