1

This property states taht the order of addition or multiplication does not mater. For example, 2 + 5 and 5 + 2 are equivalent.

59% Answer Correctly

associative

commutative

PEDMAS

distributive


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 \( \frac{4}{5} \) ÷ \( \frac{2}{8} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{4}{15}\)
\(\frac{1}{16}\)
3\(\frac{1}{5}\)
\(\frac{6}{25}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{4}{5} \) ÷ \( \frac{2}{8} \) = \( \frac{4}{5} \) x \( \frac{8}{2} \)

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

\( \frac{4}{5} \) x \( \frac{8}{2} \) = \( \frac{4 x 8}{5 x 2} \) = \( \frac{32}{10} \) = 3\(\frac{1}{5}\)


3

How many hours does it take a car to travel 240 miles at an average speed of 40 miles per hour?

85% Answer Correctly
7 hours
6 hours
8 hours
9 hours

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{240mi}{40mph} \)
6 hours


4

Simplify \( \sqrt{12} \)

62% Answer Correctly
2\( \sqrt{3} \)
9\( \sqrt{3} \)
5\( \sqrt{6} \)
6\( \sqrt{6} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{12} \)
\( \sqrt{4 \times 3} \)
\( \sqrt{2^2 \times 3} \)
2\( \sqrt{3} \)


5

Which of these numbers is a factor of 20?

68% Answer Correctly
4
3
22
2

Solution

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20.
