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 grouping - without changing the order - does not affect the answer






2. Read it - Write it - Reduce it






3. 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.






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






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






6. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






7. 2 cups






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






9. .33 1/3 = 33 1/3%






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






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






12. 1/30 ounce






13. 75/100 = .75 = 75%






14. 2 pints






15. 9 square feet






16. 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.






17. 1.00 = 100%






18. .66 2/3 = .66 2/3 = 66 2/3%






19. 25/100 = .25 = 25%






20. Is greater than






21. To square a number - multiply it by itself






22. Square roots of nonperfect squares can be approximated.






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






24. .01 = 1%






25. Positive numbers and negative numbers






26. Change the percent to a fraction or decimal and multiply






27. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






28. 4 quarts






29. .3 = .30 = 30%






30. 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






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. .375 = .37 1/2 = 37 1/2%






33. Milli = 1/1000 centi = 1/100 deci = 1/10 basic unit (meter - liter - gram) = 1 deca = 10 hecto = 100 kilo = 1000






34. Is parallel to






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






36. Any value that exists but is not rational






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






39. 1000 kilograms






40. .125 = .12 1/2= 12 1/2%






41. Is not equal to






42. 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






43. 1.1 quarts






44. 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






45. 16 ounces






46. 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






47. Length (in. - ft. - yd - mi.) - Area (sq. in. - sq. ft. - sq. yd. - acre - sq. mi.) - Weight (oz. - lb. - T) - Capacity (cups - pt. - qt. - gal. - pecks - bushels) - Time (seconds - minutes - hours - days - weeks - months - years - decades - centurie






48. .625 = .62 1/2 = 62 1/2%






49. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






50. Numbers to the right of 0 are positive - Numbers to the left of 0 are negative - Given any two numbers on a number line - the one on the right is always larger - regardless of its sign (positive or negative)
