1

The __________ is the greatest factor that divides two integers.

67% Answer Correctly

least common multiple

greatest common factor

absolute value

greatest common multiple


Solution

The greatest common factor (GCF) is the greatest factor that divides two integers.


2

What is \( \frac{9\sqrt{32}}{3\sqrt{8}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
3 \( \sqrt{4} \)
\(\frac{1}{3}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \)
3 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \)
4 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{3}} \)

Solution

To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:

\( \frac{9\sqrt{32}}{3\sqrt{8}} \)
\( \frac{9}{3} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{32}{8}} \)
3 \( \sqrt{4} \)


3

Which of the following is not an integer?

77% Answer Correctly

0

-1

1

\({1 \over 2}\)


Solution

An integer is any whole number, including zero. An integer can be either positive or negative. Examples include -77, -1, 0, 55, 119.


4

What is 3\( \sqrt{6} \) x 7\( \sqrt{6} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
10\( \sqrt{36} \)
21\( \sqrt{6} \)
10\( \sqrt{6} \)
126

Solution

To multiply terms with radicals, multiply the coefficients and radicands separately:

3\( \sqrt{6} \) x 7\( \sqrt{6} \)
(3 x 7)\( \sqrt{6 \times 6} \)
21\( \sqrt{36} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

21\( \sqrt{36} \)
21\( \sqrt{6^2} \)
(21)(6)
126


5

A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 15% off." If Frank buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $30, how much will he pay for both shirts?

57% Answer Correctly
$31.50
$55.50
$36.00
$25.50

Solution

By buying two shirts, Frank will save $30 x \( \frac{15}{100} \) = \( \frac{$30 x 15}{100} \) = \( \frac{$450}{100} \) = $4.50 on the second shirt.

So, his total cost will be
$30.00 + ($30.00 - $4.50)
$30.00 + $25.50
$55.50
