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. .7 = .70 = 70%






2. About 2.2 pounds






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






4. 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






5. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






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






7. 8/10 = .8 = .80 = 80%






8. .375 = .37 1/2 = 37 1/2%






9. Multiplication outside parentheses distributing over either addition or subtraction inside parentheses does not affect the answer a(b + c) = ab + ac a(b - c) = ab - ac






10. .01 = 1%






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






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






13. 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






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






15. Is less than or equal to






16. .875 = .87 1/2 = 87 1/2%






17. Quotient - ratio - is a part of - goes into (examples: 3 is what part of 15? 4 goes into 28 how many times?)

19. Is parallel to






20. Is greater than or equal to






21. 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






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






23. 1.00 = 100%






24. A natural number greater than 1 that is not a prime number (an alternate definition is a natural number that has exactly two different divisors) The first seven ____________ are 4 - 6 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 12 - and 14






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






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






27. Is not equal to






28. Is greater than






29. 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






30. Communicative property - Associative property - Distributive property






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






32. To square a number - multiply it by itself






33. You may have to borrow from the whole number - just like you sometimes borrow from the next column when subtracting ordinary numbers. To subtract a mixed number from a whole number - you have to borrow from the whole number.






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






35. 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






36. 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






37. 2000 pounds






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






39. 16 ounces






40. 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.






41. 1.1 yards






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






43. .9 = .90 = 90%






44. .1 = .10 = 10%






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






46. A + (b + c) = (a + b) + c Note: Subtraction does not have the associative property.






47. Is perpendicular to






48. 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
