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. 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






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






3. 2000 pounds






4. 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






5. .7 = .70 = 70%






6. 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.






7. 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






8. 2 pints






9. 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






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






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

13. A fraction whose numerator is the same or more than the denominator; has a value equal to 1 or more than 1.






14. Subtract = add the opposite; change the sign of the number being subtracted - and then proceed as an addition problem






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






16. 16 ounces






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






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






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






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






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






22. Is greater than or equal to






23. 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the natural numbers together with 0






24. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






25. 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.






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






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






28. .66 2/3 = .66 2/3 = 66 2/3%






29. Is less than or equal to






30. 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
