CLEP General Mathematics: Arithmetic Basics

Subjects : clep, math
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.

13. A fraction with all common factors (other than 1) factored out of the numerator and denominator






14. A decimal which ends without repeating e.g. 0.2 - 0.47 - 0.375 the ratio of integers that results in a terminating decimal






15. Units that are not understood under the same notion - such as a pound of stones and a ton of stones - or an inch of string and a foot of string.






16. Total Sales or Revenue = ?






17. The value on the y-axis used to locate a point on the coordinate graph. It is the second value in an ordered pair.






18. Things are Equal in Multitude when they are






19. In a division problem - it's the number being divided

24. In a division problem - the number that an amount is divided by






25. Rules that tell which steps to follow when solving an expression






26. One number is said to be greater than (>) another when it is






27. When Multiplying integers - if No integer is even - what is the result - (odd/even)?






28. Reversed position or direction






29. Having the same size and shape
