Solve 5 + (4 + 5) ÷ 2 x 5 - 22

53% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{3}\)
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{2}{7}\)
23\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):

5 + (4 + 5) ÷ 2 x 5 - 22
P: 5 + (9) ÷ 2 x 5 - 22
E: 5 + 9 ÷ 2 x 5 - 4
MD: 5 + \( \frac{9}{2} \) x 5 - 4
MD: 5 + \( \frac{45}{2} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{10}{2} \) + \( \frac{45}{2} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{55}{2} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{55 - 8}{2} \)
\( \frac{47}{2} \)
23\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Charlie loaned Betty $700 at an annual interest rate of 8%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$714
$735
$756
$742

Solution

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

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $700
i = 0.08 x $700

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $700 + $56
total = $756

How many 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) gallon cans worth of fuel would you need to pour into an empty 6 gallon tank to fill it exactly halfway?

52% Answer Correctly
5
2
9
4

Solution

To fill a 6 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 3 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) gallons so:

cans = \( \frac{3 \text{ gallons}}{1\frac{1}{2} \text{ gallons}} \) = 2
