A tiger in a zoo has consumed 105 pounds of food in 7 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 210 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
13

2
7

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 105 pounds of food in 7 days that's \( \frac{105}{7} \) = 15 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 210 - 105 = 105 more pounds of food to reach 210 pounds total. At 15 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{105}{15} \) = 7 more days.

91

Solution

The first few multiples of 8 are [8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80] and the first few multiples of 12 are [12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96]. The first few multiples they share are [24, 48, 72, 96] making 24 the smallest multiple 8 and 12 have in common.


3

What is the greatest common factor of 56 and 56?

77% Answer Correctly
56
36
48
31

Solution

The factors of 56 are [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56] and the factors of 56 are [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56]. They share 8 factors [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56] making 56 the greatest factor 56 and 56 have in common.


4

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, __________ ?

92% Answer Correctly
10
16
21
18

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 3

where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:

a6 = a5 + 3
a6 = 13 + 3
a6 = 16
