How many 14-passenger vans will it take to drive all 54 members of the football team to an away game?

81% Answer Correctly
3 vans
6 vans
13 vans
4 vans

Solution

Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:

vans = \( \frac{54}{14} \) = 3\(\frac{6}{7}\)

So, it will take 3 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 4 vans.

What is \( \sqrt{\frac{16}{25}} \)?

70% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{4}{5}\)
1
\(\frac{5}{7}\)
2\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Solution

To take the square root of a fraction, break the fraction into two separate roots then calculate the square root of the numerator and denominator separately:

\( \sqrt{\frac{16}{25}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{16}}{\sqrt{25}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{4^2}}{\sqrt{5^2}} \)
\(\frac{4}{5}\)

There are 3 3-passenger taxis available so that's 3 x 3 = 9 total seats. There are 14 people needing transportation leaving 14 - 9 = 5 who will have to find other transportation.

PEDMAS


Solution

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.
