1

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


2

A factor is a positive __________ that divides evenly into a given number.

78% Answer Correctly

improper fraction

mixed number

integer

fraction


Solution

A factor is a positive integer that divides evenly into a given number. For example, the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8.


3

What is \( 5 \)\( \sqrt{48} \) - \( 2 \)\( \sqrt{3} \)

39% Answer Correctly
3\( \sqrt{3} \)
10\( \sqrt{48} \)
3\( \sqrt{-7} \)
18\( \sqrt{3} \)

Solution

To subtract these radicals together their radicands must be the same:

5\( \sqrt{48} \) - 2\( \sqrt{3} \)
5\( \sqrt{16 \times 3} \) - 2\( \sqrt{3} \)
5\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 3} \) - 2\( \sqrt{3} \)
(5)(4)\( \sqrt{3} \) - 2\( \sqrt{3} \)
20\( \sqrt{3} \) - 2\( \sqrt{3} \)

Now that the radicands are identical, you can subtract them:

20\( \sqrt{3} \) - 2\( \sqrt{3} \)
(20 - 2)\( \sqrt{3} \)
18\( \sqrt{3} \)


4

If a car travels 105 miles in 7 hours, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
60 mph
15 mph
65 mph
70 mph

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)
speed = \( \frac{105mi}{7h} \)
15 mph


5

What is the least common multiple of 4 and 8?

73% Answer Correctly
21
22
8
14

Solution

The first few multiples of 4 are [4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40] and the first few multiples of 8 are [8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80]. The first few multiples they share are [8, 16, 24, 32, 40] making 8 the smallest multiple 4 and 8 have in common.
