- 1DecimalsNumbers written to the right of a decimal point.
- 2Decimal FractionDecimal representing a fraction; the denominator has a power of 10
- 3Decimal PointCenter of the decimal
system--located between units and tenths.
Numbers to left are whole
C numbers; to the right are decimal numbers - 4Mixed DecimalCombination of a whole number and decimal, such as
59.8, 810.85 - 5Pure DecimalHas no whole number(s) to the left of the decimal point, such as .45
- 6Repeating DecimalDecimal numbers that repeat themselves continuously and thus do not end
- 7Rounding DecimalsReducing the numbe of decimals to an indicated position, such as 59.59 - 59. to the nearest tenth
- 8AddendsNumber that combined in the addition process.
Example: 8 + 9 = 17,
which 8 and 9 are the addends - 9Decimal systemThe U.S. base 10
numbering system that uses the 10 single-digit numbers shown on a calculator. - 10DifferenceThe resulting answer from a subtraction problem.
Example: Minuend less subtrahend equals difference. - 11DividendNumber in the division process that is being divided by another. sample: 15 / 5, in which 15 is the dividend.
- 12DivisorNumber of the division process that is dividing into another.
Example: 15/5, in which 5 is the divisor. - 13MinuendIn a subtraction problem, the larger number from which another is subtracted.
Example: 50 - 40 = 10 - 14MultiplicandThe first or top number being multiplied in a multiplication problem.
Example:
product 12 = Multiplicand
20 x Multiplier 2 - 15Partial productsNumbers between multiplier and product
- 16Partial quotientOccurs when divisor doesn't divide evenly into the dividend
- 17ProductAnswer of a multiplication process
Example:
5 x 10 = 50 (Product) - 18QuotientThe answer of a division problem
- 19RemainderLeftover amount in division
- 20Rounding all the wayProcess to estimate actual answer. When rounding all the way, only one nonzero digit is left. Rounding all the way gives the least degree of accuracy.
Example:
1,251 to 1,000 - 21SubtrahendIn a subtraction problem smaller number that is being subtracted from another.
Example; 150 - 30 = 120
30 is the Subtrahend - 22SumTotal in the adding process
- 23Whole numberNumber that is 0 or larger and doesn't contain a decimal or fraction, such as 10,
55 or 92
