| Addends | Number that combined in the addition process. Example: 8+9=17, in which 8 and 9 are the addends. |
| Decimal Point | Center of the decimal system- located between units and tenths. Numbers to the left are whole numbers; to the right are decimal numbers. |
| Decimal system | The U.S. base numbering system that uses 10 single-digit numbers shown on a calculator. |
| Difference | The resulting answer to a subtraction problem. |
| Dividend | Number in the division process that is being divided by another. |
| Divisor | Number of the division process that is being divided into another. |
| Minuend | In a subtraction problem, the larger number from which another is subtracted. |
| Multiplicand | The first or top number being multiplied in a multiplication problem. |
| Partial Products | Numbers between multiplier and product |
| Partial Quotient | Occurs when divisor doesn't divide evenly in the dividend. |
| Product | Answer of a multiplication process. |
| Quotient | The answer of a division problem. |
| Remainder | Leftover amount in division. |
| Rounding all the way | The process to estimate the actual answer. When rounding all the way, only one nonzero digit is left. Rounding all the way gives the least degree of accuracy. |
| Subtrahend | In a subtraction problem smaller number that is being subtracted from another. |
| Sum | Total in the addition process. |
| Whole Number | Number that is 0 or larger that doesn't contain a decimal or fraction. |
| Cancellation | Reducing process that is used to simplify the multiplication and division of fractions. |
| Common Denominator | To add two or more fractions, denominators must be the same. |
| Denominator | The number of a common fraction below the division line. |
| Equivalent | Two or more fractions equivalent in value. |
| Fraction | Expresses a part of a whole number |
| Greatest Common Divisor | The largest possible number that will divide evenly into both the numerator and the denominator. |
| Higher Terms | Expressing a fraction with a new numerator and denominator that is equivalent to the original. |
| Improper Fractions | Fraction that has a value equal to or greater than 1; Numerator is equal to or greater than the denominator. |
| Least Common Denominator | Smallest nonzero whole number into which all denominators will divide evenly. |
| Like Fractions | Proper Fractions with the same denominators. |
| Lowest Terms | Expressing a fraction when no number divides evenly into the numerator and denominator except the number 1. |
| Mixed Numbers | Sum of a whole number greater than zero and a proper proper fraction. |
| Numerator | Number of a common fraction above the division line. |
| Prime Numbers | Whole number greater than 1 that is only divisible by itself. |
| Proper Fraction | Fractions with a value less than 1; numerator is smaller than denominator such as 5/9. |
| Reciprocal | The interchanging of the numerator and the denominator. Inverted number is the reciprocal. |
| Unlike Fractions | Proper fractions with different denominators. |
