If there were a total of 450 raffle tickets sold and you bought 31 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
13%
7%
6%
5%

Solution

You have 31 out of the total of 450 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{31}{450} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{31 \times 100}{450} \) = \( \frac{3100}{450} \) = 7% chance to win the raffle.


4

\({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\) defines which of the following?

55% Answer Correctly

commutative property for division

commutative property for multiplication

distributive property for multiplication

distributive property for division


Solution

The distributive property for division helps in solving expressions like \({b + c \over a}\). It specifies that the result of dividing a fraction with multiple terms in the numerator and one term in the denominator can be obtained by dividing each term individually and then totaling the results: \({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\). For example, \({a^3 + 6a^2 \over a^2} = {a^3 \over a^2} + {6a^2 \over a^2} = a + 6\).


5

Charlie loaned Monty $400 at an annual interest rate of 8%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly
$4
$126
$32
$99

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 $400
i = 0.08 x $400
i = $32
