A circular logo is enlarged to fit the lid of a jar. The new diameter is 60% larger than the original. By what percentage has the area of the logo increased?

51% Answer Correctly
25%
15%
17\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
30%

Solution

The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr2 where r is the radius of the circle. The radius of a circle is its diameter divided by two so A = π(\( \frac{d}{2} \))2. If the diameter of the logo increases by 60% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{60\text{%}}{2} \) = 30%

If there were a total of 150 raffle tickets sold and you bought 7 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
16%
1%
5%
3%

Solution

You have 7 out of the total of 150 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{7}{150} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{7 \times 100}{150} \) = \( \frac{700}{150} \) = 5% chance to win the raffle.

6 members of a bridal party need transported to a wedding reception but there are only 2 2-passenger taxis available to take them. How many will need to find other transportation?

75% Answer Correctly
2
6
7
9

Solution

There are 2 2-passenger taxis available so that's 2 x 2 = 4 total seats. There are 6 people needing transportation leaving 6 - 4 = 2 who will have to find other transportation.

What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 9 hours at an average speed of 75 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
450 miles
360 miles
50 miles
675 miles

Solution

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 distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 75mph \times 9h \)
675 miles

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

commutative

PEDMAS

distributive

associative


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.
