Diane scored 74% on her final exam. If each question was worth 2 points and there were 100 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Diane answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
43
37
35
30

Solution

Diane scored 74% on the test meaning she earned 74% of the possible points on the test. There were 100 possible points on the test so she earned 100 x 0.74 = 74 points. Each question is worth 2 points so she got \( \frac{74}{2} \) = 37 questions right.

52% Answer Correctly
8
5
10

Solution

To fill a 20 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 10 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 2 gallons so:

cans = \( \frac{10 \text{ gallons}}{2 \text{ gallons}} \) = 5


4

What is \( \frac{4}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{7} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{5}\)
1
7
\(\frac{3}{40}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{4}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{7} \) = \( \frac{4}{7} \) x \( \frac{7}{4} \)

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

\( \frac{4}{7} \) x \( \frac{7}{4} \) = \( \frac{4 x 7}{7 x 4} \) = \( \frac{28}{28} \) = 1

In a class of 26 students, 11 are taking German and 8 are taking Spanish. Of the students studying German or Spanish, 6 are taking both courses. How many students are not enrolled in either course?

63% Answer Correctly
13
25
16
23

Solution

The number of students taking German or Spanish is 11 + 8 = 19. Of that group of 19, 6 are taking both languages so they've been counted twice (once in the German group and once in the Spanish group). Subtracting them out leaves 19 - 6 = 13 who are taking at least one language. 26 - 13 = 13 students who are not taking either language.
