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






2. 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






3. 1/30 ounce






4. 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






5. A fraction whose numerator is smaller than its denominator; has a value less than 1.






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






7. Numbers to the left of the decimal point are whole numbers; numbers to the right of the decimal point are fractions with denominators of only 10 - 100 - 1000 - 10000 - etc.






8. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






9. .375 = .37 1/2 = 37 1/2%






10. .875 = .87 1/2 = 87 1/2%






11. 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






12. 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






13. Divide the percent by 100 - Eliminate the percent sign - Reduce if necessary






14. .16 2/3 = 16 2/3%






15. ...-3 - -2 - -1 - 0 - 1 - 2 - 3... all the whole numbers together with their opposites






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






17. 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






18. 1.1 yards






19. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






20. 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






21. Any value that exists but is not rational






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






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






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






25. 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.






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






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






28. 0. Any number added to 0 gives that number






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






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






31. Multiply by 100 - Insert a percent sign






32. 1.1 quarts






33. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






34. Communicative property - Associative property - Distributive property






35. About 0.6 mile






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






37. 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






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






39. All values that can be expressed in the form a/b - where a and b are integers and b ? 0 - Or - when expressed in decimal form - the expression either terminates or has a repeating pattern






40. 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






41. 75/100 = .75 = 75%






42. 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.






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






44. 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)






45. .01 = 1%






46. The square of a whole number






47. .125 = .12 1/2= 12 1/2%






48. .33 1/3 = 33 1/3%
