STATISTICS
rational number - (answer)A number that can be written as a ratio of integers, which means it can be
written as a fraction.
product - (answer)The result of multiplying values.
whole number - (answer)A number whose value is 0 or greater and can be represented without a
fractional or a decimal component.
identity property - (answer)The property that 0 can be added to any number without changing the value
of the number. Likewise, 1 can be multiplied by any number without changing the value of that number.
associative property - (answer)The property that under certain operations in a multi-step expression,
the computations may be done in any order. Commonly represented as (a + b) + c = a + (b + c). Addition
and multiplication both have this property, but subtraction and division do not.
perfect square - (answer)The product of any integer with itself yields this. So, a number is this if it can be
written as the square of an integer. For example, 9 is this because 3 * 3 = 9. Other examples are 16, 25,
36, 49,...
set - (answer)In mathematics: a collection of numbers.
order of operations - (answer)A set of rules that defines the order in which mathematical operations
should be performed
multiplicative inverse - (answer)The number you must multiply x by to get 1. For example, 5 and 1/5.
principal square root - (answer)The positive square root of a number.
interval - (answer)A set of numbers between two specified values.
operators - (answer)A word or symbol (such as + or -) that indicates an operation between values.
commutative - (answer)The property that the order of the numbers under the operation does not
change the result. Addition and multiplication have this property: a + b = b + a and ab = ba.
radical sign - (answer)The symbol which indicates to take the square root of the number that follows.
additive inverse - (answer)Two numbers equidistant from 0 on a number line whose sum is 0. For
example, 3 and -3.
greatest common factor (GCF) - (answer)The greatest number that is both a factor of a and a factor of b.
