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.

2. 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






3. 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






4. 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the natural numbers together with 0






5. 75/100 = .75 = 75%






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






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






8. All the rational and irrational numbers






9. .01 = 1%






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






11. 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






12. .1 = .10 = 10%






13. 1.1 yards






14. Is approximately equal to






15. 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






16. About 2.2 pounds






17. 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.






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






19. 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.






20. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%






21. To square a number - multiply it by itself






22. 1760 yards 5280 feet






23. Divide - Insert decimal points and zeros accordingly






24. 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)






25. 144 square inches






26. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






27. 3.5 = 3.50 = 350%






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






29. Read it - Write it - Reduce it






30. 1/30 ounce






31. .16 2/3 = 16 2/3%






32. .66 2/3 = .66 2/3 = 66 2/3%






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






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

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






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






44. 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.






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






46. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






47. Divide the denominator into the numerator






48. ...-3 - -2 - -1 - 0 - 1 - 2 - 3... all the whole numbers together with their opposites






49. 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.






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