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.

4. 1/30 ounce






5. Kilogram (kg) = 1000 grams hectogram (hg) = 100 grams decagram (dag) = 10 grams gram (g) = 1 gram decigram (dg) = 0.1 gram centigram (cg) = 0.01 gram milligram (mg) = 0.001 gram






6. Milli = 1/1000 centi = 1/100 deci = 1/10 basic unit (meter - liter - gram) = 1 deca = 10 hecto = 100 kilo = 1000

8. 16 ounces






9. Kiloleter (kl or kL) = 1000 liters hectoliter (hl or hL) = 100 liters decaliter (dal or daL) = 10 liters liter (l or L) = 1 liter deciliter (dl or dL) = 0.1 liter centiliter (cl or cL) = 0.01 liter milliliter (ml or mL) = 0.001 liter






10. (change/starting point) x 100 = percentage change






11. The additive inverse of a number (also known as the opposite of the number) is a value that - when added to any number - equals 0. Any number added to its additive inverse equals 0.






12. Numbers to the right of 0 are positive - Numbers to the left of 0 are negative - Given any two numbers on a number line - the one on the right is always larger - regardless of its sign (positive or negative)






13. A value that - when added to another number or multiplied with another number - does not change the value of that number






14. Find the LCD and add the whole numbers to get your final answer.

17. 1760 yards 5280 feet






18. The order in which addition or multiplication is done does not affect the answer






19. When a value is expressed using a whole number together with a common fraction

21. Is greater than or equal to






22. .3 = .30 = 30%
