For multiple-choice questions, solve each problem, choose the correct
answer from the choices provided, and then circle your answer in this book.
Circle only one answer for each question. If you change your mind,
completely erase the circle. You will not get credit for questions with more
than one answer circled, or for questions with no answers circled.
For student-produced response questions, solve each problem and write
your answer next to or under the question in the test book as described below.
● Once you've written your answer, circle it clearly. You will not receive credit
for anything written outside the circle, or for any questions with more than one
circled answer.
● If you find more than one correct answer, write and circle only one answer.
● Your answer can be up to 5 characters for a positive answer and up to 6
characters (including the negative sign) for a negative answer, but no more.
● If your answer is a fraction that is too long (over 5 characters for positive, 6
characters for negative), write the decimal equivalent.
● If your answer is a decimal that is too long (over 5 characters for positive, 6
characters for negative), truncate it or round at the fourth digit.
1
● If your answer is a mixed number (such as 3 ), write it as an improper
2
fraction (7/2) or its decimal equivalent (3.5).
● Don't include symbols such as a percent sign, comma, or dollar sign in your
circled answer.
