TSI Vocabulary Math Exam | Actual Questions and Answers
Latest Updated 2026/2027 (Graded A+)
•
sum
- ✔✔the total amount resulting from the addition of two or more numbers, amounts, or items.
•
difference
- ✔✔a quantity by which amounts differ; the remainder left after subtraction of one value
from another.
•
product
- ✔✔a quantity obtained by multiplying quantities together, or from an analogous algebraic
operation.
•
quotient
- ✔✔the result of division; the number of times one quantity is contained in another.
•
less than
- ✔✔<, less than the number greater
•
greater than
- ✔✔>, greater than the number
•
least common denominator
- ✔✔the lowest common denominator or least common denominator (abbreviated LCD) is
the least common multiple of the denominators of a set of fractions. It simplifies adding,
subtracting, and comparing fractions.
•
factoring
- ✔✔Factoring: Finding what to multiply together to get an expression. It is like "splitting" an
expression into a multiplication of simpler expressions.
•
greatest common factors
- ✔✔The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of some numbers, is the largest number that
divides evenly into all of the numbers. Like, the GCF of 10,15, and 25 is 5.
•
expressions
, - ✔✔a collection of symbols that jointly express a quantity.
•
simplify
- ✔✔make (something) simpler or easier to do or understand.
•
evaluate
- ✔✔find a numerical expression or equivalent for (an equation, formula, or function).
•
like terms
- ✔✔Like terms are terms that contain the same variables raised to the same power. Only
the numerical coefficients are different.
•
distributive property
- ✔✔The Distributive Property is an algebra property which is used to multiply a single term
and two or more terms inside a set of parentheses. Take a look at the problem below. 2(3 +
6)
•
polynomials
- ✔✔an expression of more than two algebraic terms, especially the sum of several terms
that contain different powers of the same variable(s).
•
rational
- ✔✔capable of being expressed exactly by a ratio of two integers.
•
(of a function) capable of being expressed exactly by a ratio of two polynomials.
•
equations
- ✔✔In mathematics, an equation is a statement of an equality containing one or more
variables.
•
solve
- ✔✔find an answer to, explanation for, or means of effectively dealing with (a problem
•
graph
- ✔✔a set of vertices and edges. Graph theory, the study of such graphs and their
properties.
