| Numbers that their product is 1. Ex- the pair of fractions -13/45 and -45/13 are these. | reciprocals |
| A number that two or more numbers can both go into. Ex- for 5,6, and 12, this is equal to 60. | least common multiple (LCM) |
| In this, the same block of digits repeats infinitely many times. Ex- you can convert the fraction 1/9 to one of these. | repeating decimal |
| Of a number this is he product of that number and any nonzero whole number. Ex- for 7, one of these is 35. | multiple |
| You can use conversion factors to change from one unit of measure to another in a process called this. Ex- this tells you to multiply 8ft by 12in/1ft to find the number of inches in 8 ft. | dimensional analysis |
| When the divison ends with a remainder of zero the quotient is called this. Ex- you can convert the fraction 4/5 to one of these. | terminating decimal |
