| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| convert the denominator of fractions to the lowest common denominator before adding | adding fractions |
| convert denominator to lowest commons denominator before subtracting | subtracting fractions |
| multiply numerators to get resultant numerator and multiply denominators to get resultant denominators | multiplying fractions |
| invert bottom fraction and multiply with top fraction | dividing fractions |
| a fraction where the numerator is larger than the denominator convert the integer into a fraction; add the fractional form of the integer to the fraction in the mixed numbers | improper fractions |
| the real number property that says we can choose the order in which we add/ multiply numbers together can rearrange numbers as long as they're connected by an addition (or multiplication) sign a+b=b+a | commutative property |
| the real number property that says when more than 2 real numbers are added/multiplied together, can freely choose which way we group them together (a+b)+c=a+(b+c) [same with multiplication] | associative property |
| the real number property that says when you have a number multiplied by a sum/subtraction in a parentheses, it's the same as having that number multiplied by each term separately in that parentheses ax(b+c)=axb+axc [same with subtraction] | distributive property |
| parts that make up a whole number | factors |
| this breaks the number down to its prime factors | prime factorization |
| a diagram used to break down a number into its factors until all the numbers are prime | factor tree |

| a comparison of 2 terms that use different units | rate |
| a rate with a denominator of 1 | unit rate |
| a set of ratios that are equal to each other | proportion |
