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. The product or quotient of two numbers with the same sign will produce a positive answer - The product or quotient of two numbers with the opposite signs will produce a negative answer






2. .33 1/3 = 33 1/3%






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






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






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






6. 8/10 = .8 = .80 = 80%






7. 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






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






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






10. 3.5 = 3.50 = 350%






11. 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






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






13. Is less than or equal to

29. 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.






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






31. 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






32. For 'what -' substitute the letter x - For 'is -' substitute an equal sign - For 'of -' substitute a multiplication sign - Change percents to decimals or fractions and solve the equation

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






37. 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






38. 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.
