If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 2:1 and all 42,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

49% Answer Correctly
32,500
31,333
23,250
28,000

Solution

A ratio of 2:1 means that there are 2 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 3 fans, 2 are home fans and \( \frac{2}{3} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

42,000 fans x \( \frac{2}{3} \) = \( \frac{84000}{3} \) = 28,000 fans.

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, __________ ?

92% Answer Correctly
16
7
10
24

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 3

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 + 3
a6 = 13 + 3
a6 = 16


3

This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

60% Answer Correctly

distributive

associative

commutative

PEDMAS


Solution

The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.

What is \( \frac{3}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{9} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
4\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{1}{14}\)
1\(\frac{1}{8}\)
\(\frac{3}{49}\)

Solution

To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:

\( \frac{3}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{9} \) = \( \frac{3}{6} \) x \( \frac{9}{4} \)

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

\( \frac{3}{6} \) x \( \frac{9}{4} \) = \( \frac{3 x 9}{6 x 4} \) = \( \frac{27}{24} \) = 1\(\frac{1}{8}\)


5
