What is \( \frac{3}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{5} \)?
| \(\frac{6}{7}\) | |
| \(\frac{6}{35}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{14}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{1}{5}\) |
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:
\( \frac{3}{7} \) x \( \frac{2}{5} \) = \( \frac{3 x 2}{7 x 5} \) = \( \frac{6}{35} \) = \(\frac{6}{35}\)
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?
| 22\(\frac{1}{2}\)% | |
| 20% | |
| 15% | |
| 25% |
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 8c6 x 5c2?
| 40c2 | |
| 40c8 | |
| 13c12 | |
| 40c12 |
To multiply terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so multiply the coefficients and add the exponents:
8c6 x 5c2
(8 x 5)c(6 + 2)
40c8
Solve for \( \frac{4!}{6!} \)
| \( \frac{1}{3024} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{56} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{30} \) | |
| \( \frac{1}{4} \) |
A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:
\( \frac{4!}{6!} \)
\( \frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{6 \times 5} \)
\( \frac{1}{30} \)
What is (a3)5?
| a2 | |
| a-2 | |
| a15 | |
| 3a5 |
To raise a term with an exponent to another exponent, retain the base and multiply the exponents:
(a3)5
