CSET Multiple Subjects Subtest 2a Domain 1: Math

Subjects : cset, 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.

15. A number in scientific notation is written as a rational number from 1 to 9 - and then multiplied by a power of 10






16. A natural number greater than 1 that only has 1 and itself as divisors (an alternate definition is a natural number that has exactly two different divisors) - The first seven ________ are 2 - 3 - 5 - 7 - 11 - 13 - and 17

21. Ab = ba Note: Division does not have the communicative property.

24. 1.00 = 100%






25. Eliminate the percent sign - Move the decimal point two places to the left (sometimes adding zeros will be necessary)






26. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the numbers you would naturally count by - 0 is not a natural number.






27. Fraction must be reduced to its lowest terms. This is done by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) for both the numerator and denominator and then dividing both the numerator and denominator by that value.
