4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

4 x 3

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

3 x 2 x 1

4 x 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.


2

If a mayor is elected with 76% of the votes cast and 69% of a town's 14,000 voters cast a vote, how many votes did the mayor receive?

50% Answer Correctly
7,245
6,376
7,342
5,893

Solution

If 69% of the town's 14,000 voters cast ballots the number of votes cast is:

(\( \frac{69}{100} \)) x 14,000 = \( \frac{966,000}{100} \) = 9,660

The mayor got 76% of the votes cast which is:

(\( \frac{76}{100} \)) x 9,660 = \( \frac{734,160}{100} \) = 7,342 votes.


3

What is the least common multiple of 6 and 14?

72% Answer Correctly
36
42
23
64

Solution

The first few multiples of 6 are [6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60] and the first few multiples of 14 are [14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98]. The first few multiples they share are [42, 84] making 42 the smallest multiple 6 and 14 have in common.

A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 10% off." If Alex buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $42, how much money will he save?

70% Answer Correctly
$4.20
$10.50
$14.70
$8.40

Solution

By buying two shirts, Alex will save $42 x \( \frac{10}{100} \) = \( \frac{$42 x 10}{100} \) = \( \frac{$420}{100} \) = $4.20 on the second shirt.


5

How many hours does it take a car to travel 330 miles at an average speed of 55 miles per hour?

86% Answer Correctly
6 hours
3 hours
1 hour
7 hours

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 time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{330mi}{55mph} \)
6 hours
