What is \( \frac{2}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{1}{9} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
3
\(\frac{2}{15}\)
\(\frac{2}{21}\)
\(\frac{2}{35}\)

Solution

To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:

\( \frac{2}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{1}{9} \) = \( \frac{2}{6} \) x \( \frac{9}{1} \)

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

\( \frac{2}{6} \) x \( \frac{9}{1} \) = \( \frac{2 x 9}{6 x 1} \) = \( \frac{18}{6} \) = 3


2

What is 9\( \sqrt{2} \) x 5\( \sqrt{9} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
45\( \sqrt{2} \)
14\( \sqrt{2} \)
14\( \sqrt{9} \)
135\( \sqrt{2} \)

Solution

To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:

9\( \sqrt{2} \) x 5\( \sqrt{9} \)
(9 x 5)\( \sqrt{2 \times 9} \)
45\( \sqrt{18} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

45\( \sqrt{18} \)
45\( \sqrt{2 \times 9} \)
45\( \sqrt{2 \times 3^2} \)
(45)(3)\( \sqrt{2} \)
135\( \sqrt{2} \)


3

Solve for \( \frac{6!}{5!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
1680
\( \frac{1}{9} \)
42
6

Solution

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:

\( \frac{6!}{5!} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{6}{1} \)
6


4

Which of these numbers is a factor of 72?

69% Answer Correctly
5
74
12
25

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.


5

If there were a total of 300 raffle tickets sold and you bought 15 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
5%
12%
13%
19%

Solution

You have 15 out of the total of 300 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{15}{300} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{15 \times 100}{300} \) = \( \frac{1500}{300} \) = 5% chance to win the raffle.
