.
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. Add up the digits; if the sum is a multiple of 3 the number is divisible by 3

15. Dividing decimals
Adding/subtracting 0 from number doesn't change number; number multiplied by 0 is 0; division by 0 undefined
Multiply by power of 10 so divisor is integer; decimal point is above that in dividend
