Which of these numbers is a factor of 72?

68% Answer Correctly
71
25
4
21

Solution

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72.


2

What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 5 hours at an average speed of 15 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
50 miles
560 miles
600 miles
75 miles

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 15mph \times 5h \)
75 miles


3

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


4

Frank loaned Diane $200 at an annual interest rate of 1%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$206
$210
$202
$208

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $200
i = 0.01 x $200

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $200 + $2
total = $202


5

What is \( \frac{3}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{6} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{6}{7}\)
1
\(\frac{1}{7}\)
\(\frac{8}{15}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{3}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{6} \) = \( \frac{3 x 2}{7 x 6} \) = \( \frac{6}{42} \) = \(\frac{1}{7}\)
