1

A tiger in a zoo has consumed 90 pounds of food in 10 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 117 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
10
3
2
12

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 90 pounds of food in 10 days that's \( \frac{90}{10} \) = 9 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 117 - 90 = 27 more pounds of food to reach 117 pounds total. At 9 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{27}{9} \) = 3 more days.

3

If there were a total of 300 raffle tickets sold and you bought 15 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
18%
2%
3%
5%

Solution

You have 15 out of the total of 300 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{15}{300} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{15 \times 100}{300} \) = \( \frac{1500}{300} \) = 5% chance to win the raffle.


4

A circular logo is enlarged to fit the lid of a jar. The new diameter is 40% larger than the original. By what percentage has the area of the logo increased?

51% Answer Correctly
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
37\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
15%
20%

Solution

The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr2 where r is the radius of the circle. The radius of a circle is its diameter divided by two so A = π(\( \frac{d}{2} \))2. If the diameter of the logo increases by 40% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{40\text{%}}{2} \) = 20%

Solve for \( \frac{6!}{5!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{1}{5} \)
3024
6
\( \frac{1}{840} \)

Solution

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:

\( \frac{6!}{5!} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{6}{1} \)
