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






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






3. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






4. 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






5. 1.1 yards






6. 16 ounces






7. 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






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






9. 144 square inches






10. 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






11. 4 pecks






12. .375 = .37 1/2 = 37 1/2%






13. 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






14. 6/10 = .6 = .60 = 60%






15. The numbers must be combined under the radical before any computation of square roots may be done






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






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






18. 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






19. Communicative property - Associative property - Distributive property






20. Length (meter) - Volume (liter) - Weight (gram)






21. Is perpendicular to






22. 1000 kilograms






23. Kilogram (kg) = 1000 grams hectogram (hg) = 100 grams decagram (dag) = 10 grams gram (g) = 1 gram decigram (dg) = 0.1 gram centigram (cg) = 0.01 gram milligram (mg) = 0.001 gram






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






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






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






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






28. 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






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






30. .125 = .12 1/2= 12 1/2%






31. Is less than






32. 1.00 = 100%






33. Is not equal to






34. Divide the denominator into the numerator






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






36. 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






37. 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the natural numbers together with 0






38. 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)






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






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






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






42. 2 pints






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






44. 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






45. 2.00 = 200%






46. 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.






47. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






48. 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






49. 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.
