1

A bread recipe calls for 3\(\frac{3}{4}\) cups of flour. If you only have \(\frac{1}{4}\) cup, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups
3\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups
2\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (3\(\frac{3}{4}\) - \(\frac{1}{4}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{30}{8} \) - \( \frac{2}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{28}{8} \) cups
3\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups


2

3

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 $24, how much will he pay for both shirts?

57% Answer Correctly
$8.40
$39.60
$25.20
$32.40

Solution

By buying two shirts, Bob will save $24 x \( \frac{35}{100} \) = \( \frac{$24 x 35}{100} \) = \( \frac{$840}{100} \) = $8.40 on the second shirt.

So, his total cost will be
$24.00 + ($24.00 - $8.40)
$24.00 + $15.60
$39.60


4

If there were a total of 50 raffle tickets sold and you bought 2 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
1%
2%
10%
5%

Solution

You have 2 out of the total of 50 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{2}{50} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{2 \times 100}{50} \) = \( \frac{200}{50} \) = 5% chance to win the raffle.


5

4! = ?

84% Answer Correctly

4 x 3

3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 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.
