2

Betty scored 75% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 120 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Betty answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
36
45
39
30

Solution

Betty scored 75% on the test meaning she earned 75% of the possible points on the test. There were 120 possible points on the test so she earned 120 x 0.75 = 90 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{90}{3} \) = 30 questions right.

Roger loaned Betty $600 at an annual interest rate of 2%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$654
$642
$612
$606

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 $600
i = 0.02 x $600

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

total = $600 + $12
total = $612


4

If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 2:1 and all 49,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

50% Answer Correctly
24,000
37,500
38,333
32,667

Solution

A ratio of 2:1 means that there are 2 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 3 fans, 2 are home fans and \( \frac{2}{3} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

49,000 fans x \( \frac{2}{3} \) = \( \frac{98000}{3} \) = 32,667 fans.
