A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 35% off." If Bob buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $25, how much will he pay for both shirts?

57% Answer Correctly
$8.75
$41.25
$36.25
$30.00

Solution

By buying two shirts, Bob will save $25 x \( \frac{35}{100} \) = \( \frac{$25 x 35}{100} \) = \( \frac{$875}{100} \) = $8.75 on the second shirt.

So, his total cost will be
$25.00 + ($25.00 - $8.75)
$25.00 + $16.25
$41.25

Solve 2 + (3 + 5) ÷ 4 x 4 - 22

53% Answer Correctly
4
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
6
3\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

2 + (3 + 5) ÷ 4 x 4 - 22
P: 2 + (8) ÷ 4 x 4 - 22
E: 2 + 8 ÷ 4 x 4 - 4
MD: 2 + \( \frac{8}{4} \) x 4 - 4
MD: 2 + \( \frac{32}{4} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{8}{4} \) + \( \frac{32}{4} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{40}{4} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{40 - 16}{4} \)
\( \frac{24}{4} \)

If there were a total of 150 raffle tickets sold and you bought 13 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
2%
9%
15%
6%

Solution

You have 13 out of the total of 150 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{13}{150} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{13 \times 100}{150} \) = \( \frac{1300}{150} \) = 9% chance to win the raffle.
