1

What is \( \frac{1}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{6} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{21}\)
\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{1}{16}\)
\(\frac{1}{42}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{1}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{6} \) = \( \frac{1 x 2}{7 x 6} \) = \( \frac{2}{42} \) = \(\frac{1}{21}\)


2

Find the average of the following numbers: 11, 9, 12, 8.

74% Answer Correctly
10
9
8
6

Solution

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{11 + 9 + 12 + 8}{4} \) = \( \frac{40}{4} \) = 10


3

A triathlon course includes a 400m swim, a 20.5km bike ride, and a 5.8km run. What is the total length of the race course?

69% Answer Correctly
26.7km
39.1km
41.2km
37km

Solution

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 400 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.4km then add the remaining distances:

total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.4km + 20.5km + 5.8km
total distance = 26.7km


4

Which of these numbers is a factor of 40?

68% Answer Correctly
41
1
29
40

Solution

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 40 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40.


5

A tiger in a zoo has consumed 45 pounds of food in 9 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 75 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
6
14
2
9

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 45 pounds of food in 9 days that's \( \frac{45}{9} \) = 5 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 75 - 45 = 30 more pounds of food to reach 75 pounds total. At 5 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{30}{5} \) = 6 more days.
