subtraction
cardinal numbers - ANSWER numbers used for counting
ordinal numbers - ANSWER show position 1st, 2nd,...
least common denominator (LCD) - ANSWER ex/ lowest common denominator for 2/3 and 4/9 is 9 so the
fraction can be expressed as 6/9 and 4/9 for easier comparison.
greatest common factor (GCF) - ANSWER factors of 15 are 1,3,5, and 15 and factors of 35 are 1,5, 7, and
35. so the GCF is 5.
, least common multiple (LCM) - ANSWER multiples of 3 are 3,6,9,12,15 ... multiple of 5 are 5, 10,15,20..
so LCM of 3 and 5 are 15.

express percent as fraction - ANSWER 96%=96/100 =24/25
show decimals to fractions and fractions to decimals - ANSWER 0.23=23% 5.34=534% or 700%=7.0,
86%=.86
story problem - ANSWER find 30% of 33 take .3*33=9.9 so 9.9 is 30% of 33
story problem - ANSWER 7 pizza, 9 hamburgers, 4 tocos. whats the percent of tocos. so 7+9+4=20 so
4/20 eat tocos or 20/100 or 20%
mean - ANSWER sum of values / number of values
