Do not use a calculator in this assessment. You shouldn’t need one to answer these questions, and the extra practice with arithmetic (long division, multi-digit multiplication, etc.) will just make you a better math student!
Once you input your answer, click on “Check” to see immediate feedback about the question, including an explanation. You can also skip the question and come back to it later.
You may encounter different types of questions:
- Multiple Choice
- You will see several answer choices, but only one will be correct.

- to input an answer of \(\frac{1}{2}\), type “1/2” without the quotation marks.
- For decimals less than 1, input your answer with a leading zero. For example:
- to input an answer of \(0.5\), type “0.5” without the quotation marks.
- For whole numbers, just type the number into the space provided. For example:
- to input an answer of \(5\), type “5” without quotation marks.
