What is \( \frac{2}{4} \) + \( \frac{4}{6} \)?
| \( \frac{3}{12} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{5} \) | |
| 2 \( \frac{6}{12} \) | |
| 1\(\frac{1}{6}\) |
To add these fractions, first find the lowest common multiple of their denominators. The first few multiples of 4 are [4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40] and the first few multiples of 6 are [6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60]. The first few multiples they share are [12, 24, 36, 48, 60] making 12 the smallest multiple 4 and 6 share.
Next, convert the fractions so each denominator equals the lowest common multiple:
\( \frac{2 x 3}{4 x 3} \) + \( \frac{4 x 2}{6 x 2} \)
\( \frac{6}{12} \) + \( \frac{8}{12} \)
Now, because the fractions share a common denominator, you can add them:
\( \frac{6 + 8}{12} \) = \( \frac{14}{12} \) = 1\(\frac{1}{6}\)
What is \( \frac{20\sqrt{15}}{4\sqrt{3}} \)?
| 5 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{5}} \) | |
| 5 \( \sqrt{5} \) | |
| \(\frac{1}{5}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{5}} \) | |
| \(\frac{1}{5}\) \( \sqrt{5} \) |
To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:
\( \frac{20\sqrt{15}}{4\sqrt{3}} \)
\( \frac{20}{4} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{15}{3}} \)
5 \( \sqrt{5} \)
A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 50% off." If Roger buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $36, how much will he pay for both shirts?
| $18.00 | |
| $48.60 | |
| $54.00 | |
| $41.40 |
By buying two shirts, Roger will save $36 x \( \frac{50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$36 x 50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$1800}{100} \) = $18.00 on the second shirt.
So, his total cost will be
$36.00 + ($36.00 - $18.00)
$36.00 + $18.00
$54.00
What is the greatest common factor of 16 and 52?
| 9 | |
| 12 | |
| 6 | |
| 4 |
The factors of 16 are [1, 2, 4, 8, 16] and the factors of 52 are [1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 the greatest factor 16 and 52 have in common.
Diane scored 86% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 150 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Diane answer correctly?
| 52 | |
| 34 | |
| 45 | |
| 43 |
Diane scored 86% on the test meaning she earned 86% of the possible points on the test. There were 150 possible points on the test so she earned 150 x 0.86 = 129 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{129}{3} \) = 43 questions right.
