Mathematical Terms and Concepts
Factor - correct answersA number or algebraic expression that divides another number or expression
evenly.
Place Holder - correct answersA symbol or the digit "0" used to represent an empty position in a
number.
Evaluate - correct answersTo calculate the numerical value of an expression.
Reciprocals - correct answersTwo numbers whose product is 1; for example, the reciprocal of 2 is 1/2.
Rate - correct answersA ratio that compares two different kinds of quantities.
Percent - correct answersA fraction expressed as a part of 100.
Fraction - correct answersA numerical quantity that is not a whole number, represented by two integers
separated by a slash.
Decimal - correct answersA fraction expressed in a form that uses a decimal point.
Variable - correct answersA symbol used to represent an unknown value in mathematical expressions.
Constant - correct answersA fixed value that does not change.
Expression - correct answersA combination of numbers, variables, and operators that represents a
value.
Equation - correct answersA mathematical statement that asserts the equality of two expressions.
Vertices - correct answersThe points where two or more lines meet, forming an angle.
Volume - correct answersThe amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional object, measured in
cubic units.
Surface Area - correct answersThe total area of the surface of a three-dimensional object.
Area - correct answersThe measure of the space inside a two-dimensional shape, typically measured in
square units.
Opposites - correct answersNumbers that are the same distance from zero on the number line but in
opposite directions.
Inequality - correct answersA mathematical statement that shows the relationship between two
expressions that are not equal.
Integers - correct answersWhole numbers that can be positive, negative, or zero.
