- 3Decimal SystemThe U.S. base 10 numbering system that uses the 10 single-digit numbers shown on a calculator
- 4DifferenceThe resulting answer from a subtraction problem
Example: Minuend less subtrahend equals difference. 200 in 215-15=200 - 5DividendNumber in the division process that is being divided by another
Example: 15/5, in which 15 is the dividend - 6DivisorNumber in the division process that is dividing into another
Example: 15/5, in which 5 is the divisor - 7MinuendIn a subtraction problem, the larger number from which another is subtracted. Example: 50-40=10, 50 is the Minuend
