| divisor | a number by which another number is to be divided. |
| quotient | a result obtained by dividing one quantity by another. |
| product | a result obtained by multiplying one quantity by another. |
| additive inverse | the number you add to another number to get zero. |
| additive inverse property | states that when a number is added to its opposite sign, the sum is zero |
| opposites | two numbers that are the same distance from zero but on opposite sides of zero. |
| absolute value | the distance a number is from zero on a number line |
| distributive property | a property of multiplication that states: multiplying the sum of two or more numbers by a number will give the same result as multiplying each number individually by the number and then adding the products together. a(b+c) = ab + ac |
| multiplicative identity | also called the reciprocal, when the numerator and denominator are switched |
| multiplicative identity property | states that any number multiplied by its reciprocal equals 1 (one). |
| multiplicative property of zero | states that any number multiplied by zero equals zero. |
| order of operations | the order in which you calculate numbers: PEMDAS (parenesis, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract) |
