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. To square a number - multiply it by itself






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






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






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






5. Is not equal to






6. .375 = .37 1/2 = 37 1/2%






7. Divide the denominator into the numerator






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






9. 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.






10. 75/100 = .75 = 75%






11. About 2.2 pounds






12. 1000 kilograms






13. Used as grouping symbols






14. 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






15. 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.






16. Is perpendicular to






17. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






18. 2000 pounds






19. 9 square feet






20. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






21. Is greater than or equal to






22. 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






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






24. .7 = .70 = 70%






25. 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






26. Is approximately equal to






27. 25/100 = .25 = 25%






28. All the rational and irrational numbers






29. 12 inches






30. The numbers must be combined under the radical before any computation of square roots may be done






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






32. .125 = .12 1/2= 12 1/2%






33. 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)






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






35. 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






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






37. About 0.6 mile






38. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






39. 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






40. 0. Any number added to 0 gives that number






41. A fraction whose numerator is the same or more than the denominator; has a value equal to 1 or more than 1.






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






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






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






45. 16 ounces






46. Find the LCD and add the whole numbers to get your final answer.






47. 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






48. Is greater than






49. Sum - plus - is increased by - more than (example: 3 more than 7 is what?)






50. .16 2/3 = 16 2/3%
