1

A tiger in a zoo has consumed 120 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 180 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
4
10
9
8

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 120 pounds of food in 8 days that's \( \frac{120}{8} \) = 15 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 180 - 120 = 60 more pounds of food to reach 180 pounds total. At 15 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{60}{15} \) = 4 more days.

3

A bread recipe calls for 3\(\frac{5}{8}\) cups of flour. If you only have \(\frac{3}{8}\) cup, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
2\(\frac{1}{8}\) cups
3\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups
2 cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (3\(\frac{5}{8}\) - \(\frac{3}{8}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{29}{8} \) - \( \frac{3}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{26}{8} \) cups
3\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups


4
