How many 2 gallon cans worth of fuel would you need to pour into an empty 16 gallon tank to fill it exactly halfway?

52% Answer Correctly
4
3
5
8

Solution

To fill a 16 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 8 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 2 gallons so:

cans = \( \frac{8 \text{ gallons}}{2 \text{ gallons}} \) = 4


2

If there were a total of 100 raffle tickets sold and you bought 8 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
9%
6%
8%
4%

Solution

You have 8 out of the total of 100 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{8}{100} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{8 \times 100}{100} \) = \( \frac{800}{100} \) = 8% chance to win the raffle.


3

What is \( \frac{6\sqrt{6}}{3\sqrt{3}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
2 \( \sqrt{2} \)
\(\frac{1}{2}\) \( \sqrt{2} \)
2 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} \)
\(\frac{1}{2}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} \)

Solution

To divide terms with radicals, divide the coefficients and radicands separately:

\( \frac{6\sqrt{6}}{3\sqrt{3}} \)
\( \frac{6}{3} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{6}{3}} \)
2 \( \sqrt{2} \)

The total water usage for a city is 25,000 gallons each day. Of that total, 29% is for personal use and 48% is for industrial use. How many more gallons of water each day is consumed for industrial use over personal use?

58% Answer Correctly
4,750
1,050
6,000
2,800

Solution

48% of the water consumption is industrial use and 29% is personal use so (48% - 29%) = 19% more water is used for industrial purposes. 25,000 gallons are consumed daily so industry consumes \( \frac{19}{100} \) x 25,000 gallons = 4,750 gallons.
