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. Used as grouping symbols






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






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






4. Kilometer (km) = 1000 meters hectometer (hm) = 100 meters decameter (dam) = 10 meters meter (m) = 1 meter decimeter (dm) = 0.1 meter centimeter (cm) = 0.01 meter millimeter (mm) = 0.001 meter






5. Is parallel to






6. 1.1 yards






7. Any value that exists but is not rational






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






9. 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






10. Product - times - of - at (examples: 2/3 of 5 is what? 3 at 5 cents cost how much?)






11. 1000 kilograms






12. Is perpendicular to






13. 2.00 = 200%






14. Ab = ba Note: Division does not have the communicative property.






15. Is less than






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






17. 4 pecks






18. About 2.2 pounds






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

22. 1760 yards 5280 feet






23. Addition - Subtraction - Multiplication - Division






24. 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






25. 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.






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






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






28. 3 feet 36 inches






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






30. About 0.6 mile






31. 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






32. .625 = .62 1/2 = 62 1/2%






33. .16 2/3 = 16 2/3%






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






35. A number in scientific notation is written as a rational number from 1 to 9 - and then multiplied by a power of 10






36. The additive inverse of a number (also known as the opposite of the number) is a value that - when added to any number - equals 0. Any number added to its additive inverse equals 0.






37. 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






38. 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

43. 1.1 quarts






44. 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






45. 144 square inches






46. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






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