Question
Answer

🗑
a number written in a form that shows the value of each of its digits example: 582= 500 + 80 + 2   expanded form  
🗑
writing the prime factoriztion of a number using exponents example: 16 = 2^4 (2 to the 4th power)   exponential form  
🗑
when writing a number in exponential form, it is the factor that is raised to a power example: 2^4, the number 2   base  
🗑
when writing a number in exponential form, it is the number that tells how many times the base is used as a factor   exponent  
🗑
a number raised to the second power   squared  
🗑
a number raised to the third power   cubed  
🗑
a number written in a way that shows the value of each of its digits using exponents example: 64 = 6 * 10^1 + 4 * 10^0   expanded form with exponents  
🗑
a method for estimating when the numbers appear to group around a common number example: 42 + 45 + 46 ~ 45 + 45 + 45 = 135   clustering  
🗑
numbers that "go together" because they are easy to compute mentally   compatible numbers  
🗑
changing the order of two numbers does not change the answer when you add or multiply example: 8 * 9 = 9 * 8   commutative properties  
🗑
changing the grouping of numbers does not change the answer when you multiply or add example: (2*3)*5=2*(3*5)   associative properties  
🗑
when the factor on the outside of the parentheses is multiplied by each number inside the parentheses example: 3(4 + 6)= 3*4 + 3*6   distributive  
🗑
the sum of 0 and any number is that same number example: 8 + 0 = 8   identity property of addition  
🗑
the product of 1 and any number is that same number example 45 * 1 = 45   identity property of multiplication  
🗑
any number multiplied by 0 results in a 0 example: 9*0=0   multiplication property of zero  
🗑
a letter than stands for an unknown number in an expression or an equation example: 5x   variable  
🗑
a number in exponential form where the base is ten and the exponent is a negative number representing a fraction or a decimal   negative powers of 10  
🗑
a number expressed as a product of a number greater than or equal to 1, but less than 10 and a power of 10   scientific notation  
🗑
the product of a number and a whole number greater than zero example: 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 24 .....   multiple  
🗑
any numbers multiplied to form a product example: 2 * 3   factor  
🗑
any number that has only two factors, 1 and that number itself example: 17 = 1*17   prime number  
🗑
any number that has more than two factors example: 9 = 1, 3, 9   composite number  
🗑
the expression of a composite number as the product of its prime factors example: 30 = 2 * 3 * 5   prime factorization  
🗑
the largest factor that two or more numbers share example: 12 and 20 = 4   greatest common factor GCF  
🗑
for two or more numbers the smallest number except for zero that is a multiple of each number example: 6 and 9 = 18   least common multiple LCM  
🗑
a common fraction that names a number less than one example: 1/2   proper fraction  
🗑
a fraction that names a number that is equal to or greater than 1 example: 8/7   improper fraction  
🗑
a number that has both a whole number and a fractional part example: 8 1/4   mixed numbers  
🗑
a decimal that ends example 3/8 = 0.375   terminating decimal  
🗑
a decimal number with a digit or a group of digits that repeat on and on, without end example: 1/3 = 0.333333...........   repeating decimal  
🗑
two numbers who product is 1 example 2/3 * 3/2 = 1   reciprocal  
🗑
