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.

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






12. When the place value name ends with a 'ths -' it is an indication of being a fraction.






13. 1.1 yards






14. Communicative property - Associative property - Distributive property
