April scored 89% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 270 possible points on the exam, how many questions did April answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
80

72

Solution

April scored 89% on the test meaning she earned 89% of the possible points on the test. There were 270 possible points on the test so she earned 270 x 0.89 = 240 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{240}{3} \) = 80 questions right.

4

Alex loaned Betty $1,500 at an annual interest rate of 5%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$1,590
$1,515
$1,575
$1,530

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 $1,500
i = 0.05 x $1,500

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

total = $1,500 + $75
total = $1,575

A tiger in a zoo has consumed 40 pounds of food in 8 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 65 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
5
4
2
11

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 40 pounds of food in 8 days that's \( \frac{40}{8} \) = 5 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 65 - 40 = 25 more pounds of food to reach 65 pounds total. At 5 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{25}{5} \) = 5 more days.
