- 1Decimal SystemThe U.S. base 10 numbering system that uses the 10 single-digit numbers shown on a calculator
- 2Decimal PointCenter of the decimal system—located between units and tenths. Numbers to left are whole numbers; to the right are decimal numbers
- 3Whole NumbersNumber that is 0 or larger and doesn’t contain a decimal or fraction, such as 10, 55, or 92, 4.
- 4Rounding 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, 6, 9. Example: 1,251 to 1,000; 2,995 to 3,000.
- 5AddendsNumbers that are combined in the addition process, 9. Example: 8 + 9 = 17, in which 8 and 9 are the addends
- 6SumTotal in the adding process, 9.
- 7MinuendIn a subtraction problem, the larger number from which another is subtracted, 10. Example: 50 – 40 = 10.
- 8SubtrahendIn a subtraction problem, smaller number that is being subtracted from another, 10. Example: 30 in
150 − 30 = 120 - 9DifferenceThe resulting answer from a subtraction problem, 10. Example: Minuend less subtrahend equals difference. 215 − 15 = 200.
- 10MultiplicandThe first or top number being multiplied in a multiplication problem
- 11MultiplierThe second or bottom number doing the multiplication in a problem
- 12ProductAnswer to a multiplication process
- 13Partial ProductsNumbers between multiplier and product
- 14DivisorNumber in the division process that is dividing into another, 13. Example: 15 ÷ 5, in which 5 is the divisor.
- 15DividendNumber in the division process that is being divided by another, 13. Example: 15 ÷ 5, in which 15 is the dividend.
- 16QuotientThe answer to a division problem
- 17Partial QuotientOccurs when divisor doesn’t divide evenly into the dividend
