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.
1. Pick a value for all but one of the variables and then solve for the value of the remaining variable. Then - plug the numbers we've selected into the original expression to get the Target value - and TEST Each Answer CHOICE.






2. Two numbers are said to be equal (=) when they are at

6. Even +/- Even = ? e.g. 10 + 20 = 30 e.g. 2 + 6 = 8






7. Sale Price = ?






8. The method for indicating the power of a number






9. A parallelogram with all sides equal and congruent






10. Use to estimate or compare quantities - the implied denominator is 100 so you can easily compare percents (of the same whole) to each other.






11. 11/2 - 2 3/4 - 6 5/8 - -4 1/4






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






13. What is the formula forCounting consecutive integers?






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






15. All whole numbers (both positive and negative) and zero.






16. A polygon with five sides






17. The absolute value of the numerator is smaller than the absolute value of the denominator.






18. What are the 2 'percent change' equations?






19. Consecutive Integers alternate between ___ and ___ ? e.g. 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - E -O -E -O -E






20. Where do fractions occur on a number line?






21. What is the formula for: The Area of a Triangle ?






22. Odd x Odd = ? e.g. 3 x 3 = 9 e.g. 5 x 11 = 55 e.g. 9 x 3 = 27






23. A number with an exponent of 3 is often said to be






24. Are located to the right of the zero on the integer number line. Positive integers are sometimes indicated with a positive sign ( + ). More often - however - we omit the positive sign. So when you see an integer value that does not have a sign - you






25. .625 --> Percent?






26. Operations enclosed in a sign of grouping






27. Find the largest number of times the divisor will divide into the dividend. This is the quotient. To determine the remainder - multiply the quotient by the divisor - then subtract the result from the dividend.






28. The distance around a circle (the perimeter of a circle).






29. The result of dividing one number by another; the solution to a division problem






30. In a group of values - the value that occurs most often






31. What is the result of Adding 2 Odds or 2 Evens? e.g. 7 + 11 = 18 e.g. 8 + 6 = 14






32. Total Sales or Revenue = ?






33. A value found by ordering a group of data from least to greatest and choosing the middle value of the group.






34. Any whole number can be expressed in terms of the






35. Multitude viewed in relation to something else - as greater - smaller - half - double - and so on.






36. Is a part which - being repeated a number of times - always exceeds or falls short of the whole - as 5 is of the numbers 8 and 12.






37. A term that expresses quantity definitely and particularly - such as one - five - seven - and so on.






38. To make a fraction easier to work with by taking out common factors






39. Operations that do the exact opposite of each other; they undo each other (addition and subtraction - for example)






40. A length that is half the diameter of a circle; the distance from the center of the circle to the circle itself






41. Step 1: Add the absolute values of the addends Step 2. Give the result the sign that is common to the addends






42. A number that is a multiple of all denominators in a problem.






43. Zero divided by any whole number (except 0)






44. Any number with an exponent of 1






45. The result of the multiplication is called the






46. A line segment that passes through the center of a circle and has its endpoints on the circle. It describes how wide the circle is.






47. The four Mathematical arts are:






48. The Only possible factors for a prime number are
