If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 4:1 and all 43,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?
| 34,400 | |
| 24,000 | |
| 26,667 | |
| 32,800 |
A ratio of 4:1 means that there are 4 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 5 fans, 4 are home fans and \( \frac{4}{5} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:
43,000 fans x \( \frac{4}{5} \) = \( \frac{172000}{5} \) = 34,400 fans.
This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

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.
Solve for \( \frac{5!}{6!} \)
| \( \frac{1}{6} \) | |
| 8 | |
| \( \frac{1}{336} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{72} \) |
A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:
\( \frac{5!}{6!} \)
\( \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{6} \)
\( \frac{1}{6} \)
What is \( 5 \)\( \sqrt{80} \) - \( 3 \)\( \sqrt{5} \)
| 2\( \sqrt{9} \) | |
| 2\( \sqrt{80} \) | |
| 15\( \sqrt{80} \) | |
| 17\( \sqrt{5} \) |
To subtract these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
5\( \sqrt{80} \) - 3\( \sqrt{5} \)
5\( \sqrt{16 \times 5} \) - 3\( \sqrt{5} \)
5\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 5} \) - 3\( \sqrt{5} \)
(5)(4)\( \sqrt{5} \) - 3\( \sqrt{5} \)
20\( \sqrt{5} \) - 3\( \sqrt{5} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can subtract them:
20\( \sqrt{5} \) - 3\( \sqrt{5} \)The __________ is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.
