PEDMAS

distributive

commutative

associative


Solution

The commutative property states that, when adding or multiplying numbers, the order in which they're added or multiplied does not matter. For example, 3 + 4 and 4 + 3 give the same result, as do 3 x 4 and 4 x 3.


2

What is \( \frac{3}{9} \) ÷ \( \frac{1}{8} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{18}\)
2\(\frac{2}{3}\)
\(\frac{1}{27}\)
\(\frac{2}{63}\)

Solution

To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:

\( \frac{3}{9} \) ÷ \( \frac{1}{8} \) = \( \frac{3}{9} \) x \( \frac{8}{1} \)

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

\( \frac{3}{9} \) x \( \frac{8}{1} \) = \( \frac{3 x 8}{9 x 1} \) = \( \frac{24}{9} \) = 2\(\frac{2}{3}\)

In a class of 25 students, 12 are taking German and 10 are taking Spanish. Of the students studying German or Spanish, 6 are taking both courses. How many students are not enrolled in either course?

63% Answer Correctly
17
18
22
9

Solution

The number of students taking German or Spanish is 12 + 10 = 22. Of that group of 22, 6 are taking both languages so they've been counted twice (once in the German group and once in the Spanish group). Subtracting them out leaves 22 - 6 = 16 who are taking at least one language. 25 - 16 = 9 students who are not taking either language.

If there were a total of 150 raffle tickets sold and you bought 10 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
18%
7%
9%
4%

Solution

You have 10 out of the total of 150 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{10}{150} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{10 \times 100}{150} \) = \( \frac{1000}{150} \) = 7% chance to win the raffle.
