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






2. 1.1 yards






3. 2000 pounds






4. Multiply the numerators - multiply the denominators - and reduce to lowest terms if possible






5. Kilometer (km) = 1000 meters hectometer (hm) = 100 meters decameter (dam) = 10 meters meter (m) = 1 meter decimeter (dm) = 0.1 meter centimeter (cm) = 0.01 meter millimeter (mm) = 0.001 meter






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






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






8. Is equal to






9. 2 pints






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






11. 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






12. 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






13. .7 = .70 = 70%






14. The square of a whole number






15. .16 2/3 = 16 2/3%






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






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






18. 1.1 quarts






19. To square a number - multiply it by itself






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






22. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






23. .625 = .62 1/2 = 62 1/2%






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






25. Product - times - of - at (examples: 2/3 of 5 is what? 3 at 5 cents cost how much?)






26. 75/100 = .75 = 75%






27. 16 ounces






28. ...-3 - -2 - -1 - 0 - 1 - 2 - 3... all the whole numbers together with their opposites






29. Addition - Subtraction - Multiplication - Division






30. 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.






31. Mnemonic: Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally 1. Parentheses 2. Exponents 3. Multiplication or division 4. Addition or subtraction (left to right)






32. Divide - Insert decimal points and zeros accordingly






33. 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






34. 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






35. 9 square feet






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






37. 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






38. The results of taking integers and raising them to the 3rd power (cubing them) The first seven positive ____________ are 1 - 8 - 27 - 64 - 125 - 216 - and 343
