A tiger in a zoo has consumed 42 pounds of food in 7 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 84 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
3
4
1
7

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 42 pounds of food in 7 days that's \( \frac{42}{7} \) = 6 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 84 - 42 = 42 more pounds of food to reach 84 pounds total. At 6 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{42}{6} \) = 7 more days.


2

Find the average of the following numbers: 12, 8, 12, 8.

74% Answer Correctly
15
14
9
10

Solution

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{12 + 8 + 12 + 8}{4} \) = \( \frac{40}{4} \) = 10


3

What is \( \frac{35\sqrt{21}}{7\sqrt{3}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
5 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \)
7 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{5}} \)
\(\frac{1}{5}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \)
5 \( \sqrt{7} \)

Solution

To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:

\( \frac{35\sqrt{21}}{7\sqrt{3}} \)
\( \frac{35}{7} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{21}{3}} \)
5 \( \sqrt{7} \)


4

Simplify \( \frac{20}{48} \).

77% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{5}{19} \)
\( \frac{8}{13} \)
\( \frac{7}{18} \)
\( \frac{5}{12} \)

Solution

To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 20 are [1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20] and the factors of 48 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 their greatest common factor (GCF).

Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:

\( \frac{20}{48} \) = \( \frac{\frac{20}{4}}{\frac{48}{4}} \) = \( \frac{5}{12} \)


5

If there were a total of 200 raffle tickets sold and you bought 12 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
5%
10%
6%
11%

Solution

You have 12 out of the total of 200 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{12}{200} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{12 \times 100}{200} \) = \( \frac{1200}{200} \) = 6% chance to win the raffle.
