In the given addition, 6+3=9, 6 is called the augend: a thing to be increased, but this specific term is rarely used.   Generally, each of 6 and 3 is called the addend: a thing to be added.   Because the commutative law is true in addition: changing the order of numbers does not change their sum, e.g. 6+3=3+6.   So, each of 6 and 3 works as an addend. 

The sign in the middle,+, is called a plus sign, = is called an equal(s) sign, and 9 is called the sum.   Thus, the given addition verbally rendered as "six plus three equals nine."

Be careful not to mix up negative signs in addition with plus signs, e.g. (+)5 + (-)7 = -2.   Signs attached 7 and 2 are called negative signs.   The addition shown above is rendered as "positive five plus negative seven equals negative two.   +5,-7,and -2 are also called signed numbers.

In a subtraction, e.g. 7-5=2, 7: the minuend, 5: the subtrahend, (-): a minus sign, and 2: the difference.

In a multiplication, e.g. 7x5=35. 7: the multiplicand, 5: the multiplier (x): a multiplication sign, and 35: the product.

In a division, e.g. 7÷5=1 R2, 7: the dividend, 5: the divisor, (÷): a division sign, 1:quotient, R(or r.): an abbreviation for remainder, and 2: the remainder.
