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






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






3. Used as grouping symbols






4. Multiply as usual - Count the total number of digits above the line which are to the right of all decimal points - Place your decimal point in your answer so there is the same number of digits to the right of it as there was above the line






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






6. Is greater than






7. Divide - Insert decimal points and zeros accordingly






8. .125 = .12 1/2= 12 1/2%






9. You may have to borrow from the whole number - just like you sometimes borrow from the next column when subtracting ordinary numbers. To subtract a mixed number from a whole number - you have to borrow from the whole number.






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






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






12. Multiply by 100 - Insert a percent sign






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






14. 2 cups






15. To find the square root of a number - you want to find some number that when multiplied by itself gives you the original number






16. Consist of two numbers separated by a bar which indicates division: the numerator is above the bar and the denominator is below the bar. Denominator: Tells you into how many equal parts something has been divided. Numerator: Tells you how many of tho






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






18. 1/30 ounce






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






20. 4 pecks






21. 4 quarts






22. 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






23. 5/10 = .5 = .50 = 50%






24. Quotient - ratio - is a part of - goes into (examples: 3 is what part of 15? 4 goes into 28 how many times?)






25. .375 = .37 1/2 = 37 1/2%






26. If either numerator or denominator consists of several numbers - these numbers must be combined into one number - then reduce if necessary






27. The results of taking integers and raising them to the 2nd power (squaring them) The first seven positive ___________ are 1 - 4 - 9 - 16 - 25 - 36 - and 49






28. Invert (turn upside down) the second fraction and multiply; reduce if necessary.






29. .875 = .87 1/2 = 87 1/2%






30. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






31. 2.00 = 200%






32. To square a number - multiply it by itself






33. Is not equal to






34. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the numbers you would naturally count by - 0 is not a natural number.






35. .33 1/3 = 33 1/3%






36. 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






37. 3 feet 36 inches






38. Change to an improper fraction and multiply; then change the answer - if in improper form - back to a mixed number and reduce if necessary.






39. Line up the decimal points and then add or subtract in the same manner you would add or subtract regular numbers - Adding in zeros can make the problem easier to work with - Whole numbers can have decimal points to their right






40. .01 = 1%






41. 25/100 = .25 = 25%






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






43. Is less than or equal to

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






46. .3 = .30 = 30%






47. The same as dividing other numbers - except that if the divisor (the number you're dividing by) has a decimal - move it to the right as many places as necessary until it is a whole number - Move the decimal point in the dividend (the number being div
