A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 10% off." If Bob buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $17, how much money will he save?

70% Answer Correctly
$8.50
$4.25
$1.70
$0.85

Solution

By buying two shirts, Bob will save $17 x \( \frac{10}{100} \) = \( \frac{$17 x 10}{100} \) = \( \frac{$170}{100} \) = $1.70 on the second shirt.

Solve 5 + (4 + 3) ÷ 2 x 5 - 52

53% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{5}\)
\(\frac{6}{7}\)
-2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1

Solution

Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):

5 + (4 + 3) ÷ 2 x 5 - 52
P: 5 + (7) ÷ 2 x 5 - 52
E: 5 + 7 ÷ 2 x 5 - 25
MD: 5 + \( \frac{7}{2} \) x 5 - 25
MD: 5 + \( \frac{35}{2} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{10}{2} \) + \( \frac{35}{2} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{45}{2} \) - 25
AS: \( \frac{45 - 50}{2} \)
\( \frac{-5}{2} \)
-2\(\frac{1}{2}\)


5

What is \( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{3}{9} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{2}{9}\)
\(\frac{1}{72}\)
\(\frac{2}{5}\)

Solution

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{3}{9} \) = \( \frac{4 x 3}{6 x 9} \) = \( \frac{12}{54} \) = \(\frac{2}{9}\)
