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. 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

11. 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






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






13. .3 = .30 = 30%






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






15. 2 cups






16. Multiplication outside parentheses distributing over either addition or subtraction inside parentheses does not affect the answer a(b + c) = ab + ac a(b - c) = ab - ac






17. 8/10 = .8 = .80 = 80%






18. 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.






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






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

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






23. To square a number - multiply it by itself

40. Fraction must be reduced to its lowest terms. This is done by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) for both the numerator and denominator and then dividing both the numerator and denominator by that value.






41. 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.






42. Read it - Write it - Reduce it
