Solve for \( \frac{4!}{3!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{1}{5} \)
8
4
9

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:

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


2

A bread recipe calls for 1\(\frac{7}{8}\) cups of flour. If you only have \(\frac{7}{8}\) cup, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups
1 cups
3\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
2\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (1\(\frac{7}{8}\) - \(\frac{7}{8}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{15}{8} \) - \( \frac{7}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{8}{8} \) cups
1 cups


3

Christine scored 75% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 180 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Christine answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
48
34
58
45

Solution

Christine scored 75% on the test meaning she earned 75% of the possible points on the test. There were 180 possible points on the test so she earned 180 x 0.75 = 135 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{135}{3} \) = 45 questions right.


4

What is 6\( \sqrt{7} \) x 2\( \sqrt{5} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
12\( \sqrt{12} \)
12\( \sqrt{7} \)
8\( \sqrt{35} \)
12\( \sqrt{35} \)

Solution

To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:

6\( \sqrt{7} \) x 2\( \sqrt{5} \)
(6 x 2)\( \sqrt{7 \times 5} \)
12\( \sqrt{35} \)


5

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 5, 13, 25, 41, __________ ?

69% Answer Correctly
59
61
64
67

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 4(n - 1)

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 + 4(6 - 1)
a6 = 41 + 4(5)
a6 = 61
