Solve for \( \frac{5!}{6!} \)
| \( \frac{1}{7} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{1680} \) | |
| 5 | |
| \( \frac{1}{6} \) |
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:
\( \frac{5!}{6!} \)
\( \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{6} \)
\( \frac{1}{6} \)
A triathlon course includes a 400m swim, a 50.6km bike ride, and a 5.4km run. What is the total length of the race course?
| 56.4km | |
| 30.2km | |
| 29.3km | |
| 41.6km |
To add these distances, they must share the same unit so first you need to first convert the swim distance from meters (m) to kilometers (km) before adding it to the bike and run distances which are already in km. To convert 400 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.4km then add the remaining distances:
total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.4km + 50.6km + 5.4km
total distance = 56.4km

The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.
In a class of 23 students, 11 are taking German and 12 are taking Spanish. Of the students studying German or Spanish, 6 are taking both courses. How many students are not enrolled in either course?
| 6 | |
| 20 | |
| 19 | |
| 15 |
The number of students taking German or Spanish is 11 + 12 = 23. Of that group of 23, 6 are taking both languages so they've been counted twice (once in the German group and once in the Spanish group). Subtracting them out leaves 23 - 6 = 17 who are taking at least one language. 23 - 17 = 6 students who are not taking either language.
Which of these numbers is a factor of 32?
| 25 | |
| 31 | |
| 23 | |
| 4 |
The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 32 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32.
