| Question | Answer |
| Addends | Numbers that are combined in the addition process, 9. Example: 8 + 9 = 17, in which 8 and 9 are the addends |
| Decimal point | Center of the decimal system—located between units and tenths. Numbers to left are whole numbers; to the right are decimal numbers, 4, 69, 70 |
| Decimal system | The U.S. base 10 numbering system that uses the 10 single-digit numbers shown on a calculator, 4. |
| Difference | The resulting answer from a subtraction problem, 10. Example: Minuend less subtrahend equals difference. 215 − 15 = 200 |
| Dividend | Number in the division process that is being divided by another, 13. Example: 15 ÷ 5, in which 15 is the dividend. |
| Divisor | Number in the division process that is dividing into another, 13. Example: 15 ÷ 5, in which 5 is the divisor. |
| Minuend | In a subtraction problem, the larger number from which another is subtracted, 10. Example: 50 – 40 = 10 |
| Multiplicand | The first or top number being multiplied in a multiplication problem, 12. |
| Multiplier | The first or top number being multiplied in a multiplication problem, 12. |

| Cancellation | Reducing process that is used to simply the multiplication and division of fractions. |
| Common denominator | To add two or more fractions, denominators must be the same. |
| Denominator | The number of a common fraction below the division line (bar) |
| Equivalent | Two or more fractions equivalent in value |
| Fraction | Expresses a part of a whole number. |
| The greatest common divisor | The largest possible number that will divide evenly into both the numerator and denominator |
| Higher terms | Expressing a fraction with a new numerator and denominator that is equivalent to the original |
| Improper fraction | Fraction that has a value equal to or greater than 1; numerator is equal to or greater than the denominator |
| Least common denominator | Smallest non-zero whole number into which all denominators will divide evenly |
| Like fractions | Proper fractions with the same denominators |
| Lowest terms | Expressing a fraction when no number divides evenly into the numerator and denominator except the number |
| Numerator | Number of a common fraction above the division line (bar) |
| Prime number | Whole number greater than 1 that is only divisible by itself and 1 |
| Proper fractions | Fractions with a value less than 1; numerator is smaller than denominator, such as 5/9 |
| Reciprocal | The interchanging of the numerator and the denominator. Inverted number is the reciprocal. For example 6/7 and 7/6. |
