Addition
The answer to an addition problem
Sum
Numbers that cannot be expressed as a ratio. Decimals that are non-repeating and non-terminating are irrational numbers
Irrational Numbers
When adding integers, the order in which they are added does not affect the sum
Commutative Property of Addition
A fraction where the numerator is larger than the denominator
Improper fraction
The answer to a subtraction problem
Difference
When adding fractions, the fractions must have this.
Common Denominator
All positive whole numbers NOT including 0
Natural Numbers
When using parentheses to multiply, no matter how the numbers are grouped, the answer will be the same
Associative Property of Multiplication
When the numerator and the denominator of a fraction are switched
Inverse
Numbers that are multiplied together to give a product.
Factors
Numbers that are being added

Mixed Number
The answer to multiplication
Product
When you add integers that are the same distance from the origin, their sum is always 0.

All positive numbers INCLUDING 0
Whole Numbers
When you add a integer to 0, the sum is the integer that is being added to 0
Identity Property of Addition
When a fraction is multiplied by its inverse, the product will be 1
Inverse Property of Multiplication
