A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 45% off." If Frank buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $47, how much money will he save?

70% Answer Correctly
$23.50
$4.70
$16.45
$21.15

Solution

By buying two shirts, Frank will save $47 x \( \frac{45}{100} \) = \( \frac{$47 x 45}{100} \) = \( \frac{$2115}{100} \) = $21.15 on the second shirt.

If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 2:1 and all 36,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

49% Answer Correctly
34,400
36,800
24,000
23,250

Solution

A ratio of 2:1 means that there are 2 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 3 fans, 2 are home fans and \( \frac{2}{3} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

36,000 fans x \( \frac{2}{3} \) = \( \frac{72000}{3} \) = 24,000 fans.
