If a car travels 495 miles in 9 hours, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
20 mph
55 mph
15 mph
40 mph

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)
speed = \( \frac{495mi}{9h} \)
55 mph

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3

3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


4

What is \( \frac{2}{5} \) x \( \frac{2}{6} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{4}{5}\)
\(\frac{2}{15}\)
\(\frac{2}{3}\)
\(\frac{4}{45}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{2}{5} \) x \( \frac{2}{6} \) = \( \frac{2 x 2}{5 x 6} \) = \( \frac{4}{30} \) = \(\frac{2}{15}\)
