1

A circular logo is enlarged to fit the lid of a jar. The new diameter is 45% larger than the original. By what percentage has the area of the logo increased?

51% Answer Correctly
30%
17\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)%

Solution

The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr2 where r is the radius of the circle. The radius of a circle is its diameter divided by two so A = π(\( \frac{d}{2} \))2. If the diameter of the logo increases by 45% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{45\text{%}}{2} \) = 22\(\frac{1}{2}\)%

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

68% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{7}\)
1\(\frac{2}{5}\)
\(\frac{1}{27}\)
2\(\frac{4}{5}\)

Solution

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

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

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

\( \frac{2}{5} \) x \( \frac{7}{2} \) = \( \frac{2 x 7}{5 x 2} \) = \( \frac{14}{10} \) = 1\(\frac{2}{5}\)

Christine scored 95% on her final exam. If each question was worth 4 points and there were 240 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Christine answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
49
68
57
53

Solution

Christine scored 95% on the test meaning she earned 95% of the possible points on the test. There were 240 possible points on the test so she earned 240 x 0.95 = 228 points. Each question is worth 4 points so she got \( \frac{228}{4} \) = 57 questions right.
