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.

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. Divide the denominator into the numerator. Use ordinary whole-number division that produces a quotient and a remainder.

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






16. Two angles whose sum equals 90 degrees.






17. Includes an integer as well as a fractional part






18. Surface space that is measured in square units

20. The part of a fraction that stands for how many parts of a whole or group are included in the fraction.






21. The smallest multiple that two or more numbers have in common






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






23. A self-evident statement - that is - one that does not need to be demonstrated.






24. The base of a triangle refers to?

27. A triangle with two equal sides and two equal angles






28. Always check the solutions you get in the original equation! Squaring both sides can actually introduce and extraneous solution.






29. 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
