What is \( \frac{4}{7} \) x \( \frac{3}{5} \)?
| \(\frac{12}{35}\) | |
| \(\frac{3}{28}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{5}{7}\) | |
| \(\frac{9}{25}\) |
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:
\( \frac{4}{7} \) x \( \frac{3}{5} \) = \( \frac{4 x 3}{7 x 5} \) = \( \frac{12}{35} \) = \(\frac{12}{35}\)

A prime number is an integer greater than 1 that has no factors other than 1 and itself. Examples of prime numbers include 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11.
If a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide and has a perimeter of 48 meters, what is the area of the rectangle?
| 2 m2 | |
| 72 m2 | |
| 128 m2 | |
| 18 m2 |
The area of a rectangle is width (w) x height (h). In this problem we know that the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide so h = 2w. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2h and we know that the perimeter of this rectangle is 48 meters so the equation becomes: 2w + 2h = 48.
Putting these two equations together and solving for width (w):
2w + 2h = 48
w + h = \( \frac{48}{2} \)
w + h = 24
w = 24 - h
From the question we know that h = 2w so substituting 2w for h gives us:
w = 24 - 2w
3w = 24
w = \( \frac{24}{3} \)
w = 8
Since h = 2w that makes h = (2 x 8) = 16 and the area = h x w = 8 x 16 = 128 m2
A triathlon course includes a 200m swim, a 20.6km bike ride, and a 9.0km run. What is the total length of the race course?
| 37km | |
| 42.8km | |
| 29.8km | |
| 60.3km |
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 200 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.2km then add the remaining distances:
total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.2km + 20.6km + 9.0km
total distance = 29.8km
This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.
