and answers 100% pass
An understanding of which of the following mathematical concepts is most helpful when
working with probabilities? ✔✔ratios and proportions
A Venn diagram would be most appropriate for visually representing which of the following
problems? ✔✔What are the common multiples of 2, 3, and 5 that are less than 40?

numbers. Which of the following types of mathematics learning materials would be most
effective for the teacher to use for this purpose? ✔✔number lines
Which of the following strategies is most appropriate for solving the problem below?
"One week Liam baked some cookies and gave half of them away. The next week Liam baked
twice as many cookies as the week before and gave half of them away. The third week Liam
again baked twice as many cookies as the week before and gave half of them away. If Liam gave
away 24 cookies the third week, how many cookies did he give away altogether?" ✔✔working
backward
To correctly use the ordinal numbers first through fifth with a group of five objects placed in a
row, a young child must first be able to: ✔✔recognize that the last number counted is the number
of objects in the group.
A preschool child measures the length of a long rectangular block by lining up several smaller
blocks along the length of the longer block. This demonstrates that the child has an
understanding of which of the following measurement concepts? ✔✔unit iteration
With respect to mathematics instruction, a standardized developmental screening test would be
most appropriate for helping a second-grade teacher: ✔✔identify whether any student is at risk
of a possible learning problem in mathematics.
A kindergarten teacher wants to promote students' ability to interpret data. The teacher provides
stickers of various colors and asks students to select the sticker that best matches the color of the
shirts they are wearing. The students then place the stickers in columns based on color on a large
sheet of paper. To meet the objective of the lesson, the most appropriate step for the teacher to
take next would be to: ✔✔ask students to identify which columns have more stickers and which
have fewer.
A second-grade teacher is having students work on adding double-digit numbers. The teacher
writes a problem on the board, asks students to estimate the answer, and then asks them to
explain how they arrived at their answers. As students listen to their peers' explanations, some
students are able to revise their answers correctly while others are not. Which of the following
follow-up activities would be most appropriate? ✔✔working with students in small groups to
help students at different ability levels construct their understanding of the concept of addition
Which of the following mathematics activities would be most appropriate for promoting
preschool students' skills in measurement? ✔✔sequencing three different events that occur in the
daily classroom routine
A third-grade teacher is developing a criterion-referenced test for a mathematics unit on
multiplication. During the unit, students use arrays to solve multiplication problems involving
one- and two-digit numbers. To produce a valid criterion- referenced test for this unit, the teacher
must: ✔✔include test questions that allow students to solve multiplication problems using arrays
as they did during the unit.
A preschool teacher wants to promote children's skills related to counting and comparing
numbers. Which of the following activities is most appropriate to use for this purpose?

which book won based on the votes
A third-grade student is having difficulty solving word problems in mathematics. Which of the
following strategies would be most helpful for the teacher to suggest the student use first?
✔✔restating the problem in his or her own words
A teacher provides mathematics instruction using manipulatives, worksheets, games, and class
discussion. The primary benefit of providing instruction in multiple formats is that it:
✔✔addresses a variety of learning styles.
A teacher gives groups of students a number of triangles, squares, and semicircles and asks the
students to combine these shapes to make as many different figures as they can. This activity will
