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






3. About 2.2 pounds






4. Read it - Write it - Reduce it






5. 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






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






7. Is less than






8. 9 square feet






9. 25/100 = .25 = 25%






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






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






12. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






13. .16 2/3 = 16 2/3%






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






15. 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






16. Used as grouping symbols






17. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






18. 16 ounces






19. All the rational and irrational numbers






20. Factor the number into two numbers - one (or more) of which is a perfect square - Take the square root of the perfect square(s) - Leave the others under the v






21. 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






22. 1.00 = 100%






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. 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






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






26. Communicative property - Associative property - Distributive property






27. 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the natural numbers together with 0






28. 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

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






33. Divide - Insert decimal points and zeros accordingly






34. First change all the denominators to their least common multiple (LCM) - which in fractions is known as the least common denominator (LCD). This value is the least positive value that all the denominators will divide into without a remainder.






35. 12 inches
