 \n# AppliedMathematics\n\nPrep Package  \nACT  \n## Test Taking Tips\n\nAlthough there are several different WorkKeys skill assessments,these practice materials focus on only a few of them.These practice tests contain multiple-choice items with a question followed by five possible answers from which youare to choose the best one.The following suggestions apply to all WorkKeys multiple-choice tests.  \nPace yourself.  \nThe time limits set for each WorkKeys test give nearly everyone enough time to finish all the questions.However,it isimportant to pace yourself.Don't spend too much time on one problem or reading section;go on to the other questionsand come back if there is time.  \nListen to and read the directions for each test carefully.  \nBefore you begin taking one of the WorkKeys tests,pay careful attention to the directions.These tests ask for the bestanswer.It is important to keep this in mind when answering the questions,since it will sometimes be possible to thinkof responses that could be better than any of those offered or to defend a choice as not entirely wrong.Best-responseformats are consistent with the real world,where choosing among less-than-perfect alternatives is routine.  \nYou may want to work out the answer you feel is correct and look for it among the choices given.If your answer isnot among the choices provided,reread the question and consider all of the answer choices again to find the best one.  \nRead each question carefully.  \nIt is important that you understand what each question asks.Some questions will require you to go through severalsteps to find the best answer,while others can be answered more quickly  \nAnswer the easy questions first.  \nThe best strategy for taking a test is to answer the easy questions and skip the questions you find difficult.Afteranswering all of the easy questions,go back and try to answer the more difficult questions.  \nUse logic in more difficult questions.  \nWhen you return to the more difficult questions,try to use logic to eliminate incorrect answers to a question.Comparethe answer choices to each other and note how they differ.Such differences may provide clues as to what the questionrequires.Eliminate as many incorrect answers as you can,then make an educated guess from the remaining answers.  \nAnswer every question.  \nYour score on the WorkKeys tests will be based on the number of questions that you answer correctly;there is nopenalty for guessing.Thus,you should answer every question within the time allowed for each test,even if you haveto guess.You will be notified when there are five minutes remaining on each test.  \nReview your work.  \nIf thcre is time left after you have answered every question on a test,go back and check your work on that test.Checkto be surc that you marked only one answer to each question.You will not be allowed to go back to any other test ormark answers to a test after time has been called on that test.  \nBe precise in marking your answer document.  \nBe sure that you fill in the correct circles on your answer document.Check to be sure that the number for the line ofcircles on your answer document is the same as the number for the question you are answering.Position your answerdocument next to your test booklet so you can mark your answers quickly and completely.  \nErase completely.  \nIf you want to change an answer on your answer document,be sure to erase the unintended mark complctely.  \n## APPLIED MATHEMATICS\n\n45 Minutes -33 Questions  \nDIRECTIONS:There are 33 questions in this test,a small number of which are included for developmentalpurposes.Answers to these developmental questions will not count toward your score.  \nThis test measures mathematics skills related to success in the workplace.  \nEach question in the test is numbered,and the five answer options are lettered.After calculating a solution,decide which answer is the best answer for each question.Next,find the row of ovals on the answer foldernumbered the same as the question","cbCaieiBaZhkI18n","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieiBaZhkI18n","pdf",1260893,28,"English","# Test Taking Tips\n## Multiple-choice
