Down
- 2. a number representing part of a whole; looks like a number on top of another number
- 4. technique used when dividing fractions. Keep the first fraction the same; change the division symbol to multiplication; flip the second fraction (use the reciprocal)
- 5. opposite of positive; the part of a number line left of zero
- 6. technique that allows subtraction problems to be changed to addition; the first number stays the same; the minus sign changes to an addition sign; the second number changes to its opposite (positive/negative)
- 7. graphic representation of numbers with positive numbers to the right (or above) zero and negative number to the left (or below) zero
- 11. the bottom number of a fraction
- 13. tools used to make sense of adding and subtracting integers; often using 1’s or +’s or Yellow circles for positives and O’s, –‘s or Red circles for negatives
