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

A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 50% off." If Monty buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $31, how much will he pay for both shirts?
| $46.50 | |
| $15.50 | |
| $32.55 | |
| $44.95 |
By buying two shirts, Monty will save $31 x \( \frac{50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$31 x 50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$1550}{100} \) = $15.50 on the second shirt.
So, his total cost will be
$31.00 + ($31.00 - $15.50)
$31.00 + $15.50
$46.50
If a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide and has a perimeter of 36 meters, what is the area of the rectangle?
| 50 m2 | |
| 72 m2 | |
| 2 m2 | |
| 162 m2 |
The area of a rectangle is width (w) x height (h). In this problem we know that the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide so h = 2w. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2h and we know that the perimeter of this rectangle is 36 meters so the equation becomes: 2w + 2h = 36.
Putting these two equations together and solving for width (w):
2w + 2h = 36
w + h = \( \frac{36}{2} \)
w + h = 18
w = 18 - h
From the question we know that h = 2w so substituting 2w for h gives us:
w = 18 - 2w
3w = 18
w = \( \frac{18}{3} \)
w = 6
Since h = 2w that makes h = (2 x 6) = 12 and the area = h x w = 6 x 12 = 72 m2
Latoya scored 92% on her final exam. If each question was worth 2 points and there were 200 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Latoya answer correctly?
| 94 | |
| 81 | |
| 84 | |
| 92 |
Latoya scored 92% on the test meaning she earned 92% of the possible points on the test. There were 200 possible points on the test so she earned 200 x 0.92 = 184 points. Each question is worth 2 points so she got \( \frac{184}{2} \) = 92 questions right.
How many hours does it take a car to travel 210 miles at an average speed of 70 miles per hour?
| 7 hours | |
| 4 hours | |
| 3 hours | |
| 9 hours |
Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:
speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)Solving for time:
time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{210mi}{70mph} \)
3 hours
