What is a reciprocal?
The inverse of a number, that is; one of a pair of numbers whose product is 1; the reciprocal of 5 is 1/5; the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2.
What is an exponent?
A superscripted number that indicates the number of times to multiply the number by itself for example 34 indicates 3x3x3x3
What is a number squared?
A number multiplied by itself such as 52 or 5x5=25
What is a number cubed?
A number multiple 3 times by itself such as 53 is 5x5x5=125
What is the square root of a number?
A positive number that when squared produces the given number. The square root of a number n is square root of n. The square root of square root sign then 2 is 1.4.
What is a fraction?
A number in the form a/b, where number "a" is called the numerator and "b" is the denominator. If the numerator is larger than the denominator, it is an improper fraction.
What is an integer?
Integers consist of counting numbers and the negative of the counting numbers such as -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1,2, 3, 4, 5, etc.
