1

Which of these numbers is a factor of 48?

69% Answer Correctly
31
48
26
40

Solution

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48.


2

The __________ is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.

56% Answer Correctly

greatest common factor

least common factor

absolute value

least common multiple


Solution

The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.


3

Simplify \( \frac{20}{68} \).

77% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{1}{2} \)
\( \frac{5}{12} \)
\( \frac{5}{17} \)
\( \frac{5}{19} \)

Solution

To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 20 are [1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20] and the factors of 68 are [1, 2, 4, 17, 34, 68]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 their greatest common factor (GCF).

Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:

\( \frac{20}{68} \) = \( \frac{\frac{20}{4}}{\frac{68}{4}} \) = \( \frac{5}{17} \)


4

What is \( \frac{2}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{5} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{12}{49}\)
\(\frac{4}{25}\)
\(\frac{5}{14}\)
\(\frac{1}{5}\)

Solution

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

\( \frac{2}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{5} \) = \( \frac{2}{7} \) x \( \frac{5}{4} \)

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

\( \frac{2}{7} \) x \( \frac{5}{4} \) = \( \frac{2 x 5}{7 x 4} \) = \( \frac{10}{28} \) = \(\frac{5}{14}\)


5

How many 7-passenger vans will it take to drive all 67 members of the football team to an away game?

81% Answer Correctly
9 vans
13 vans
11 vans
10 vans

Solution

Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:

vans = \( \frac{67}{7} \) = 9\(\frac{4}{7}\)

So, it will take 9 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 10 vans.
