improper fraction a fraction with a numerator that is greater than or equal to its denominator
mixed number a number that is written using both a whole number and a fraction
circle or pie graph a graph in which a circle and its interior are divided into sectors corresponding to parts of a set of data
percent per hundred; out of a hundred
percent circle a tool that is used to measure and draw figures that involve percents, such as circle graphs
fraction stick a diagram used to represent simple fractions
rounding, round to the nearest... to approximate a number to make it easier to work with or to check for precision
repeating decimal a decimal in which one digit or a group of digits is repeated without end

contour map a map that uses contour lines to indicate areas having a particular feature, such as elevation or climate
contour line a curve on a map through places where a measurement is the same
line plot a sketch of data in which checkmarks, Xs, or other symbols above a labeled line show the frequency of each value

landmark of data a notable feature of a data set; landmarks include the median, mode, mean, maximum, minimum, and range
maximum the largest amount; the greatest number in a set of data
minimum the smallest amount; the smallest number in a set of data
median the middle value in a set of data when the data are listed in order from smallest to largest or vice versa. If there is an even number of data points, the median is the mean of the two middle values
mode the value or values that occur most often in a set of data
range the difference between the maximum and the minimum in a set of data
stem-and-leaf plot a display of data values in which digits with larger place values are "stems" and digits with smaller place values are "leaves"
normal span the distance from the end of the thumb to the end of the index finger of an outstretched hand
quick common denominator (QCD) the product of the denominators of two or more fractions
simplest form of a fraction a fraction that cannot be renamed in simpler form (reduced)
