25 Questions

1. A + b = b + a - The order of addends can be changed & the sum remains the same. 3+7=7+3

2. The numbers to be added

3. Approximating a given number to a specified number of digits

4. A counting number having exactly two different factors - itself and 1 - an integer that has no integral factors but itself and 1 and - a whole number greater than 1 that has exactly two factors - itself and 1

5. The distance around an object In the case of a polygon - the perimeter is the sum of the length of all sides - a line enclosing a plane areas

6. (ab)c = a(bc) - changing the grouping of factors will not change the product - (ab)c = a(bc) - Factors can be regrouped & the product remains the same.

7. Sentences using < or > - A mathematical sentence built from expressions using one or more of the symbols greater than - less than - greater than or equal to and/or less than or equal to

8. States that changing the grouping of the addends does not change the sum

9. A(b+c)=ab+ac - a property indicating a special way in which multiplication is applied to addition of two or more numbers in which each term inside a set of parentheses can be multiplied by a factor outside the parentheses - such as a(b + c) = ab + ac

10. A > b means that a is to the right of b on a number line.

11. The factors of a number that are prime numbers - 2 - 3 - 5 - 7 - 11 - ... - numbers that divides into another exactly and have no factors of their own except one and itself

12. The number to be subtracted from the minuend

13. The solution of an equation is the replacement that makes the equation a true statement. - a statement that solves a problem or explains how to solve the problem - the set of values that give a true statement when substituted into an equation

14. The number that remains after subtraction - the answer to a subtraction problem

15. PEMDAS - the order in which operations in an expression to be evaluated are carried out. 1. parentheses 2. exponents 3. multiplication and divison 4. addition and subtraction

16. The number obtained by division - the ratio of two quantities to be divided - the result of dividing one number by another number

17. A=bh - base x height - The area of a rectangle is the product of its base and height

18. A counting number greater than 1 that is not prime - an integer that is divisible without remainder by at least one positive integer other than itself and one - A whole number greater than 1 that has more than 2 factors.

19. First number in a multiplication sentence - the number in a multiplication problem that represents the number of objects in each (equal sized) group - A quanity by which a given number (the multiplicand) is to be multiplied.

20. 10 - 100 - 1000 - etc. - every counting number multiplied by 10; 10 -20 -30 - and so on - What unit the Metric System based on?

21. The result of an addition

22. In the expression b^n - n is the exponent. - a mathematical notation indicating the number of times a quantity is multiplied by itself - a number that shows repeated multiplication

23. The equation a = b is equivalent to a + c = b + c.

24. A flat geometric region with many sides

25. Numbers that are multiplied together to get a product - A number that divides another number without a remainder. Ex) Factors of 18: 1 - 2 -3 - 6 - 9 -18
