If there were a total of 250 raffle tickets sold and you bought 12 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
5%
12%
16%
18%

Solution

You have 12 out of the total of 250 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{12}{250} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{12 \times 100}{250} \) = \( \frac{1200}{250} \) = 5% chance to win the raffle.

Damon loaned Bob $1,200 at an annual interest rate of 2%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly
$24
$49
$60
$104

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 $1,200
i = 0.02 x $1,200
i = $24

A tiger in a zoo has consumed 52 pounds of food in 4 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 130 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
4
8
6
3

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 52 pounds of food in 4 days that's \( \frac{52}{4} \) = 13 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 130 - 52 = 78 more pounds of food to reach 130 pounds total. At 13 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{78}{13} \) = 6 more days.

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 7, 13, 19, 25, __________ ?

92% Answer Correctly
31
30
36
22

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 6

where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:

a6 = a5 + 6
a6 = 25 + 6
a6 = 31
