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.

3. Shifts all the others upward one place value. The result is exactly ten times larger than before the zero is added.






4. A triangle with sides of different lengths and no two angles are the same.






5. The point of intersection for two sides of a plane figure - three sides of a solid figure - or the endpoints of two rays that form an angle.






6. The absolute value of numbers is indicated by






7. Adding integers that have the same sign means






8. Always perform combinations of multiplication and division before






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






10. Step 1: Multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator. This becomes the numerator of the improper fraction. Step 2: Set the denominator of the improper fraction equal to the denominator of the fraction in the mixed number.






11. An angle measuring more than zero degrees and less than 90 degrees






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






13. An angle measuring more than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees






14. When will a decimal terminate and why?






15. Profit = ?






16. A fraction such as 12/16 might look a lot different from 3/4 - but it represents






17. In an equation made up of two fractions - the numerator of one fraction times the denominator of the other fraction.






18. 3 ways to solve an absolute value inequality






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






20. An equation stating that two ratios are equal






21. Total Sales or Revenue = ?






22. A number that when multiplied by itself results in the original number






23. Describe the steps for solving a VICS problem using 'Pick Numbers & Calculate a Target'

24. Always try to Factor a quadratic equation






25. Method: convert Percent to Decimal?






26. Cross-multiply






27. An angle measuing more than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees






28. Any number multiplied to form a product. A product can be divided by one factor to find the other factor.






29. What is the formula forCounting consecutive integers?






30. Multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same integer value.






31. The vertical number line of a coordinate graph






32. Always perform the operations






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






34. That which is referred to Unity as a Whole to a Part as - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - etc..






35. The numerator is smaller than the denominator






36. Or demonstration - is a connection of arguments used to demonstrate the truth or falsehood of a statement.






37. Any number with a negative exponent






38. One of the four regions formed by the intersection of the axes of a coordinate graph






39. A number with an exponent of 2 is often said to be

41. A ratio that compares two different types of quantities






42. Use to cancel factors. - Also fractions are the best way of exactly expressing proportions that don't have clean decimal equivalents such as 1/7. In some cases it might be easier to compare a bunch of fractions by giving them all a common denominator






43. An integer is its value without regard to the sign - Or is its distance from the origin (zero) on the number line.






44. A quantity that is whole and continuous - as a field - a circle - the universe - and so on. It is also called a 'Continued Quantity'.






45. Of two Unequal Magnitudes - one that has a part Equal in Magnitude with the Whole of the other Magnitude.






46. An evenly-spaced set is fully-defined if what is known...?






47. Step 1: Divide the denominator into the numerator. Use ordinary whole-number division that produces a quotient and a remainder. Step 2: Assemble the mixed number. The whole-number part of the mixed number is the whole-number part of the quotient from






48. A triangle with one right angle






49. When the factors of a number are all prime numbers - the factors are said to be the






50. Anything that may be increased or diminished
