- 10. powers: When the exponent is negative, for example: 10-4
- 12. shows or tells
- 13. Numbers below zero are called negative numbers. They are written with a “-” in front of the number. For example, -10
- 14. name A number written using words. For example: Three thousand, four hundred ten
- 15. Using numbers, measurements and shapes to figure things out
- 16. form A way to write numbers. It consists of a base and an exponent.
- 17. form Numbers written out in an expanded way. For example, the number 389 in expanded form is written as: 300+80+9

- 17. Numbers which can be written in “exponent form.” An exponent tells how many times to use the base as a factor. For example 34
- 18. In mathematics, “power” is another way of telling an exponent. For example: 3 to the fourth power means 34 or 3x3x3x3
