mathematics A study of relationships among numbers, shapes, systems, and patterns. It is used to count, measure things, to discover similarities and differences between them, to solve problems, and to learn about and organize the world.
maximum {3, 2, 8, 1, 9, 2} is 9 The largest amount; the greatest number in a set of data.
measurement unit The reference unit used when measuring length, weight, capacity, time or temperature.
mean 2, 4, 5, 9, 10 = 30 30 ÷ 5 = 6 The mean is 6 A typical or middle value for a set of numbers. It is the average.
median 2, 35, 65, 77, 80, 100, 205 The middle value in a set of data when the data is listed in order.
memory Mechanical or electronic storage of information for later recall.
memory keys Keys to manage a calculator’s memory.
memory key The [M+], [M-], and [MRC] calculator keys. The [M+] key is used to add a number to the number stored in the calculator's memory; the [M-] key is used to subtract a number from the number in memory. The [MRC] key, pressed once, displays the number currently stored in memory; when the key is pressed twice, the calculator's memory is cleared.
