1

What is \( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{4}{6} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{7}\)
\(\frac{4}{9}\)
\(\frac{3}{14}\)
\(\frac{1}{18}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{4}{6} \) = \( \frac{4 x 4}{6 x 6} \) = \( \frac{16}{36} \) = \(\frac{4}{9}\)

A tiger in a zoo has consumed 20 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 55 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
4
7
9
2

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 20 pounds of food in 4 days that's \( \frac{20}{4} \) = 5 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 55 - 20 = 35 more pounds of food to reach 55 pounds total. At 5 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{35}{5} \) = 7 more days.


3

Which of these numbers is a factor of 28?

68% Answer Correctly
10
14
25
22

Solution

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 28 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28.


4

What is \( 6 \)\( \sqrt{45} \) - \( 8 \)\( \sqrt{5} \)

38% Answer Correctly
48\( \sqrt{45} \)
48\( \sqrt{225} \)
10\( \sqrt{5} \)
-2\( \sqrt{16} \)

Solution

To subtract these radicals together their radicands must be the same:

6\( \sqrt{45} \) - 8\( \sqrt{5} \)
6\( \sqrt{9 \times 5} \) - 8\( \sqrt{5} \)
6\( \sqrt{3^2 \times 5} \) - 8\( \sqrt{5} \)
(6)(3)\( \sqrt{5} \) - 8\( \sqrt{5} \)
18\( \sqrt{5} \) - 8\( \sqrt{5} \)

Now that the radicands are identical, you can subtract them:

18\( \sqrt{5} \) - 8\( \sqrt{5} \)
(18 - 8)\( \sqrt{5} \)
10\( \sqrt{5} \)


5

Simplify \( \sqrt{80} \)

62% Answer Correctly
4\( \sqrt{5} \)
5\( \sqrt{5} \)
9\( \sqrt{5} \)
2\( \sqrt{5} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{80} \)
\( \sqrt{16 \times 5} \)
\( \sqrt{4^2 \times 5} \)
4\( \sqrt{5} \)
