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. A mathematical notation indicating the number of times a quantity is multiplied by itself (base).






2. One of two equal parts.






3. A way of making sure your answer is reasonable - rounding is a commonly used strategy.






4. A whole number that can divide evenly into another number without a remainder.






5. A part of a whole expressed using a numerator and a denominator.






6. The number that is represented as a one followed by 6 zeros. 1 -000 -000.






7. The number that is to be divided in a division problem.

22. A mathematical expression which shows that two quantities are not equal.






23. The top number in a fraction.






24. A number that when multiplied by itself equals a given number.(ex. The square root of 25 is equal to 5 because 5 times 5 equals 25).






25. The number that is represented as a one followed by 9 zeros. 1 -000 -000 -000






26. A number less than a whole number; uses place value and a decimal point to show values less than one - such as tenths - hundredths - and thousandths.






27. The average of a set of numbers.
