What is the least common multiple of 8 and 10?

72% Answer Correctly
40
1
56
18

Solution

The first few multiples of 8 are [8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80] and the first few multiples of 10 are [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90]. The first few multiples they share are [40, 80] making 40 the smallest multiple 8 and 10 have in common.


2

What is 4z4 + 6z4?

66% Answer Correctly
10z4
10z-8
-2z-4
2z-4

Solution

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so add the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

4z4 + 6z4
(4 + 6)z4
10z4


3

Betty scored 93% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 90 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Betty answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
29
30
15
28

Solution

Betty scored 93% on the test meaning she earned 93% of the possible points on the test. There were 90 possible points on the test so she earned 90 x 0.93 = 84 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{84}{3} \) = 28 questions right.

5

What is 4\( \sqrt{7} \) x 2\( \sqrt{8} \)?

41% Answer Correctly
6\( \sqrt{56} \)
6\( \sqrt{8} \)
8\( \sqrt{8} \)
16\( \sqrt{14} \)

Solution

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

4\( \sqrt{7} \) x 2\( \sqrt{8} \)
(4 x 2)\( \sqrt{7 \times 8} \)
8\( \sqrt{56} \)

Now we need to simplify the radical:

8\( \sqrt{56} \)
8\( \sqrt{14 \times 4} \)
8\( \sqrt{14 \times 2^2} \)
(8)(2)\( \sqrt{14} \)
16\( \sqrt{14} \)
