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. 1000 kilograms






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






3. Is less than or equal to






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. Positive numbers and negative numbers






6. 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






7. Move the decimal point two places to the right - Insert a percent sign






8. .01 = 1%






9. 1.1 quarts






10. Is approximately equal to






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






13. Is greater than






14. .1 = .10 = 10%






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






16. Is perpendicular to






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






18. 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






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






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






21. Read it - Write it - Reduce it






22. 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.






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






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






25. .125 = .12 1/2= 12 1/2%






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






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






28. Quotient - ratio - is a part of - goes into (examples: 3 is what part of 15? 4 goes into 28 how many times?)






29. .3 = .30 = 30%






30. 2.00 = 200%






31. 3 feet 36 inches






32. 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.






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






34. 1760 yards 5280 feet






35. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






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






37. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






38. A natural number greater than 1 that is not a prime number (an alternate definition is a natural number that has exactly two different divisors) The first seven ____________ are 4 - 6 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 12 - and 14






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






40. 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






41. 3.5 = 3.50 = 350%






42. A + b = b + a Note: Subtraction does not have the communicative property.






43. Is less than

45. 9 square feet






46. About 0.6 mile






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






48. 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






49. Square roots of nonperfect squares can be approximated.






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