A tiger in a zoo has consumed 120 pounds of food in 10 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 156 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
5
2
3
12

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 120 pounds of food in 10 days that's \( \frac{120}{10} \) = 12 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 156 - 120 = 36 more pounds of food to reach 156 pounds total. At 12 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{36}{12} \) = 3 more days.


3

a(b + c) = ab + ac defines which of the following?

74% Answer Correctly

distributive property for division

commutative property for division

commutative property for multiplication

distributive property for multiplication


Solution

The distributive property for multiplication helps in solving expressions like a(b + c). It specifies that the result of multiplying one number by the sum or difference of two numbers can be obtained by multiplying each number individually and then totaling the results: a(b + c) = ab + ac. For example, 4(10-5) = (4 x 10) - (4 x 5) = 40 - 20 = 20.


4

If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 2:1 and all 34,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

50% Answer Correctly
22,667
33,600
29,600
36,000

Solution

A ratio of 2:1 means that there are 2 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 3 fans, 2 are home fans and \( \frac{2}{3} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

34,000 fans x \( \frac{2}{3} \) = \( \frac{68000}{3} \) = 22,667 fans.
