GMAT Crash Course: All In One

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. Extreme
So 16=4 or -4 b/c both (4)^2 and (-4)^2=16 you cannot add these unless they have a common root. so 2+2=2 but 2+3 doesn't equal 5. To multiply and divide just treat them as regular integers: 6x3=18 or 3/2 basically they're subject to the same rules as
