1) Fraction

A partitioned share of a whole or group; division of the numerator by the denominator (a/b =
a÷b).

2) Numerator

The number written above the line in a fraction that shows how many equal parts of a whole or
group are being considered.

3) Unit fraction

One equal part of the whole. The fraction has 1 as a numerator.

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

4) Mixed fraction

A combination of whole numbers and fractions.

5) Proper fraction

A fraction that is less than 1 whole, the numerator is less than the denominator.

6) Improper fraction

A fraction that is more than or equal to one whole, the numerator is equal to or larger than the
denominator.

7) Denominator

The number written below the line of a fraction that tells the number of equal parts in which the
whole has been divided.

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

8) Common denominator

A shared multiple of the denominators of two or more fractions.

9) Equivalent fractions

Equal, having the same value, occupying the same point on a number line.

10) Simplest form

When the numerator and denominator have no common factor other than 1 lowest terms; when
a fraction is expressed with the fewest pieces.

11) Set

It is a collection of well defined objects.

12) Element

each one of those well defined objects.

13) Empty set

A set which has no elements . It is represented by the symbols {} or Ø ( a set with no elements).

14) Venn diagram

Elements of sets represented by the closed shape.

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

15) Listing Method

Elements of the set are listed within the pair of brackets. A = {June, July, August}

16) Common property Method

Well-Defined description of the elements of the set. A = {the months of summer}

17) Universal set

A set which has all the elements in the universe

18) Union

The union of two sets A and B is the set which contains all of the elements in both A and B.

19) Intersection

The intersection of two sets A and B is the set which contains only

20) Integers

Positive and negative numbers, including zero, with no fractional parts.

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

21) Positive number

A real number that is greater than zero; found to the right of the zero on a number line.

22) Negative number

A real number that is less than zero; found to the left of the zero on a number line.

23) Absolute value

The distance a number is from zero on a number line.

24) Opposite

The same numeral, but with a different sign. The same numeral on opposite sides of zero (point
of origin) on a number line.

25) Exponent

The number that tells how many times the base is to be multiplied by itself.

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

26) Base of an exponent

The factor that will be multiplied by itself the number of times indicated by the exponent.

27) Order of operations

Rules that tell the order in which to solve a problem.

28) Distributive Property of Multiplication

Multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then adding the products

a(b+c)=ab+ac

29) Associative Property of Addition

The way the numbers are grouped in addition does not " change the resulting sum

(a+b)+c= a+(b+c)

30) Associative Property of Multiplication

The way the numbers are grouped in multiplication does not change the resulting product.

(axb)xc=ax(bxc)

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

31) Commutative Property of Addition

The order in which the numbers are added does not change the sum.

A+B=C AND B+A=C

32) Commutative Property of Multiplication

Factors can be multiplied in any order and the resulting product is the same.

AxB=BxA

33) Zero Property of Multiplication

The product of any number and zero is always zero.

Nx0=0

34) Divisible

When one number can be partititoned into equal groups with no remainder. “Twenty four is
divisible by three.”

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

35) Factors

The numbers that are multiplied together to form a product

36) Divisior

The number or amount by which you divide.

37) Multiple

The product of any whole number and another whole number.

38) Common multiples

Multiples of different numbers that are the same.

39) Prime number

A whole number larger than zero that is only divisible by 1 and itself.

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

40) Composite number

A number that can be divided evenly by numbers other than 1 or itself.,

41) Odd

Odd numbers are those numbers that cannot be divided into two equal parts.,

42) Even

Even numbers are those numbers that can be divided into two equal parts.

43) Prime factorization

The process of listing all of the prime factors of a positive number.

44) Common factors

Factors of different numbers that are the same.

syf. Error! Unknown switch argument.

45) Greatest common factor

The highest number that divides exactly into two or more numbers.

46) Least common multiple

The smallest (non-zero) number that is a multiple of two or more numbers.

47) A square number

When you multiply a whole number times itself, the resulting product is called “a square
number”.

48) A cube number

A number multiplied by itself three times.

49) Remainder

The amount that is left when one number cannot be exactly divided by another
