I never really got the jargon for “divisor,” “numerator,” etc. into my head… Basic stuff, I know.
Subtraction: minuend - subtrahend = difference
Addition: addend + addend = sum
Division: dividend / divisor = quotient
Division: numerator / denominator = ratio
Multiplication: multiplier × mutliplicand = product
And now we both know! Never again will we get confused reading elementary math texts.
