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






2. 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






3. Multiply by 100 - Insert a percent sign






4. 1/30 ounce






5. Square roots of nonperfect squares can be approximated.






6. .33 1/3 = 33 1/3%






7. 6/10 = .6 = .60 = 60%






8. .66 2/3 = .66 2/3 = 66 2/3%






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. 3.5 = 3.50 = 350%






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






12. 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






13. 1.1 quarts






14. 2 cups






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






16. 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.






17. .125 = .12 1/2= 12 1/2%






18. Is approximately equal to






19. Divide the denominator into the numerator






20. 5/10 = .5 = .50 = 50%






21. 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






22. Read it - Write it - Reduce it






23. 1.1 yards






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






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






26. 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






27. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the numbers you would naturally count by - 0 is not a natural number.






28. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






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






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






31. 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






32. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






33. Difference - minus - is decreased by - less than (example: 3 less than 7 is what?)






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






35. Is greater than or equal to






36. Is equal to






37. 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






38. Positive numbers and negative numbers






39. 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

41. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






42. 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






43. Any value that exists but is not rational






44. .625 = .62 1/2 = 62 1/2%






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






46. Is less than or equal to






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






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