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.
1. Sum - plus - is increased by - more than (example: 3 more than 7 is what?)






2. To round off any number: Underline the place value to which you're rounding off - Look to the immediate right (one place) of your underlined place value - Identify the number (the one to the right). If it is 5 or higher - round your underlined place






3. Communicative property - Associative property - Distributive property






4. Factor the number into two numbers - one (or more) of which is a perfect square - Take the square root of the perfect square(s) - Leave the others under the v






5. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






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






7. Multiply the whole number by the denominator - add the numerator - and then place that value over the denominator






8. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






9. The numbers must be combined under the radical before any computation of square roots may be done






10. 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






11. Is greater than or equal to






12. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






13. A natural number greater than 1 that is not a prime number (an alternate definition is a natural number that has exactly two different divisors) The first seven ____________ are 4 - 6 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 12 - and 14






14. When adding two numbers with the same sign (either both positive or both negative) - add the pure number portions (absolute values) and keep the sign that is on the numbers






15. Difference - minus - is decreased by - less than (example: 3 less than 7 is what?)






16. 1.00 = 100%






17. .375 = .37 1/2 = 37 1/2%






18. 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.






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






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






21. .3 = .30 = 30%






22. The multiplicative inverse of a number (also known as the reciprocal of the number) is a value that - when multiplied with any non -zero number - equals 1. Any non -zero number multiplied with its multiplicative inverse equals 1. The multiplicative i






23. 8/10 = .8 = .80 = 80%






24. Is less than or equal to






25. .9 = .90 = 90%






26. 1. Any number multiplied by 1 gives that number.






27. .01 = 1%






28. A + (b + c) = (a + b) + c Note: Subtraction does not have the associative property.






29. Is approximately equal to






30. 1.1 yards






31. First change all the denominators to their least common multiple (LCM) - which in fractions is known as the least common denominator (LCD). This value is the least positive value that all the denominators will divide into without a remainder.






32. Any exponent means to multiply by itself that many times






33. 4 pecks






34. A(bc) = (ab)c Note: Division does not have the associative property.






35. 3.5 = 3.50 = 350%






36. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the numbers you would naturally count by - 0 is not a natural number.






37. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






38. 1.1 quarts






39. Change the percent to a fraction or decimal and multiply






40. The product or quotient of two numbers with the same sign will produce a positive answer - The product or quotient of two numbers with the opposite signs will produce a negative answer






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






42. The grouping - without changing the order - does not affect the answer






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






44. Length (in. - ft. - yd - mi.) - Area (sq. in. - sq. ft. - sq. yd. - acre - sq. mi.) - Weight (oz. - lb. - T) - Capacity (cups - pt. - qt. - gal. - pecks - bushels) - Time (seconds - minutes - hours - days - weeks - months - years - decades - centurie






45. Two numbers multiplied under a radical (square root) sign equal the product of the two square roots - and likewise with division.






46. Is equal to






47. 12 inches






48. 2.00 = 200%






49. Is greater than






50. Find a number that divides evenly into one numerator and one denominator. Reducing early only applies to multiplying fractions - not adding or subtracting.
