Fifth Grade Common Core Math Vocabulary

Subjects : common-core, math, 5th-grade
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. A math sentence containing only numbers and operational symbols. (ie. 3 + 2 - 5 - 4)






2. The ways that two things are similar -different or otherwise connected. - an association between two or more variables






3. Operations that undo each other - reversed - opposite operation. Operations that have opposite effects. Subtraction is the inverse operation of addition. Division is the inverse operation of multiplication.






4. The average of a set of numbers.






5. The left over amount when a number cannot be divided equally.






6. Three-dimensional objects that have height - length and width; such as spheres - cylinders - cones - cubes - rectangular prisms and pyramids. - shapes - appearances - or arrangements






7. The answer to a division problem.






8. A number multiplied by itself or when the exponent is 2






9. The plural of vertex - the point where two rays of an angle - two sides of a polygon - or 3 or more edges of a solid figure meet.






10. Breaking down a composite number until all of the factors are prime.






11. Items that come after each other in a pattern. Example 2 - 4 - 6 - 8 are consecutive even numbers.






12. A part of a whole expressed using a numerator and a denominator.






13. A pair of symbols used to set apart parts of a problem so that those parts are done first - example ( ).






14. The smallest number that is a common multiple of a given set of numbers. Ex: LCM of 6 and 8 = 24. The smallest number they both divide into is 24.






15. A whole number that has exactly two factors - 1 and itself.

21. A mathematical notation indicating the number of times a quantity is multiplied by itself (base).






22. The number that occurs most often in a set of data.






23. A number that when multiplied by itself equals a given number.(ex. The square root of 25 is equal to 5 because 5 times 5 equals 25).






24. One of two equal parts.






25. Anything that stands for or represents something else - Shapes - mathematical and scientific notations - currency signs - and other visual elements you can insert in documents.






26. All of the parts of something.
