Feletti and Smith have shown that as the number of items in the open-ended examination increases, questions probing high-order cognitive skills tend to be replaced by questions requiring factual recall alone [ 46].
Performance on this series of questions indicated that during the semester there was no significant difference between the two groups of students in their ability to answer questions requiring factual recall based on knowledge and comprehension (Bloom's levels 1 and 2; Bloom, 1956).

Just as there is good reason to believe that in biology and history such thought requires significant factual knowledge, there is good reason to believe that in mathematics it requires understanding of and facility with the standard algorithms.
