A ten-digit number system in which the value of a digit depends on its place. The value of each place is 10 times the value of the place to the right and 1/10 of the value of the place to the left.
What is BASE TEN
in a power that tells how many times to use the base as a factor in repeated multiplication
What is an EXPONENT
the parts formed when a whole is divided into 10 equal parts
What are TENTHS
to give an approximate number or answer based on mathematical thinking
What is an ESTIMATE
two or more different fractions that name the same part of a whole or the same point on a number line
What are EQUIVALENT FRACTIONS
a number containing a decimal point that separates a whole from a fractional place value
What is a DECIMAL
a way to write a number to show the place value of each digit
What is EXPANDED FORM
to decide if numbers, amounts, or sizes are greater than, less than, or equal to each other
What is COMPARE
the result of subtraction
What is a DIFFERENCE
the product of a given number and any other whole number
What is a MULTIPLE
What is PLACE VALUE
the parts formed when a whole is divided into 100 equal parts
What are HUNDREDTHS
(>) a symbol used to compare two numbers when the first is greater than the second
What is GREATER THAN SYMBOL
a number that is a common multiple of the denominators of two or more fractions
What is a COMMON DENOMINATOR
the number above the line in a fraction that tells the number of equal parts that are being described
What is a NUMERATOR
in a power, the number that is used as a repeated factor
What is BASE ( of a power)
a number with a whole number part and a fractional part
What is a MIXED NUMBER
(<) a symbol used to compare two numbers when the first is less than the second
What is the LESS THAN SYMBOL
the number below the line in a fraction that tells the number of equal parts in the whole
What is a DENOMINATOR
What is a SUM
the parts formed when a whole is divided into 1,000 equal parts
What are THOUSANDTHS
a number that can be written as a product of tens
100 and 1,000 are powers of 10
What is POWER OF 10
the parts formed when a whole is divided into 1,000 equal parts
What are THOUSANDTHS
a mathematical statement that uses an inequality symbol like (<,>) to show the relationship between numbers with different values
What is INEQUALITY
a common fraction that you might compare with other fractions
1/4, 1/2, 2/3, and 3/4 are benchmark fractions
What is a BENCHMARK FRACTION
