Monty loaned Roger $1,400 at an annual interest rate of 6%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly

$54

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

i = 0.06 x $1,400
i = $84

60% Answer Correctly
18%
4%
2%
15%

Solution

You have 6 out of the total of 150 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{6}{150} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{6 \times 100}{150} \) = \( \frac{600}{150} \) = 4% chance to win the raffle.

The total water usage for a city is 5,000 gallons each day. Of that total, 33% is for personal use and 57% is for industrial use. How many more gallons of water each day is consumed for industrial use over personal use?

58% Answer Correctly
3,200
17,500
1,200
1,500

Solution

57% of the water consumption is industrial use and 33% is personal use so (57% - 33%) = 24% more water is used for industrial purposes. 5,000 gallons are consumed daily so industry consumes \( \frac{24}{100} \) x 5,000 gallons = 1,200 gallons.
