1

This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

59% Answer Correctly

associative

commutative

PEDMAS

distributive


Solution

The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.


2

Solve 4 + (5 + 4) ÷ 5 x 5 - 42

52% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{4}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-3
1

Solution

Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):

4 + (5 + 4) ÷ 5 x 5 - 42
P: 4 + (9) ÷ 5 x 5 - 42
E: 4 + 9 ÷ 5 x 5 - 16
MD: 4 + \( \frac{9}{5} \) x 5 - 16
MD: 4 + \( \frac{45}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{20}{5} \) + \( \frac{45}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{65}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{65 - 80}{5} \)
\( \frac{-15}{5} \)
-3


3

Which of the following statements about exponents is false?

47% Answer Correctly

b1 = 1

b0 = 1

b1 = b

all of these are false


Solution

A number with an exponent (be) consists of a base (b) raised to a power (e). The exponent indicates the number of times that the base is multiplied by itself. A base with an exponent of 1 equals the base (b1 = b) and a base with an exponent of 0 equals 1 ( (b0 = 1).


4

Find the average of the following numbers: 11, 5, 11, 5.

74% Answer Correctly
5
12
9
8

Solution

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{11 + 5 + 11 + 5}{4} \) = \( \frac{32}{4} \) = 8


5

What is \( \frac{4}{9} \) x \( \frac{3}{9} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{4}{27}\)
\(\frac{2}{15}\)
\(\frac{2}{9}\)
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Solution

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{4}{9} \) x \( \frac{3}{9} \) = \( \frac{4 x 3}{9 x 9} \) = \( \frac{12}{81} \) = \(\frac{4}{27}\)
