How many 6-passenger vans will it take to drive all 80 members of the football team to an away game?
| 9 vans | |
| 3 vans | |
| 5 vans | |
| 14 vans |
Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:
vans = \( \frac{80}{6} \) = 13\(\frac{1}{3}\)
So, it will take 13 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 14 vans.
What is 3z3 + 8z3?
| 5z-3 | |
| 11z3 | |
| 11z6 | |
| -5z3 |
To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so add the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:
3z3 + 8z3
(3 + 8)z3
11z3
Cooks are needed to prepare for a large party. Each cook can bake either 5 large cakes or 16 small cakes per hour. The kitchen is available for 3 hours and 21 large cakes and 180 small cakes need to be baked.
How many cooks are required to bake the required number of cakes during the time the kitchen is available?
| 11 | |
| 6 | |
| 14 | |
| 13 |
If a single cook can bake 5 large cakes per hour and the kitchen is available for 3 hours, a single cook can bake 5 x 3 = 15 large cakes during that time. 21 large cakes are needed for the party so \( \frac{21}{15} \) = 1\(\frac{2}{5}\) cooks are needed to bake the required number of large cakes.
If a single cook can bake 16 small cakes per hour and the kitchen is available for 3 hours, a single cook can bake 16 x 3 = 48 small cakes during that time. 180 small cakes are needed for the party so \( \frac{180}{48} \) = 3\(\frac{3}{4}\) cooks are needed to bake the required number of small cakes.
Because you can't employ a fractional cook, round the number of cooks needed for each type of cake up to the next whole number resulting in 2 + 4 = 6 cooks.
How many 1 gallon cans worth of fuel would you need to pour into an empty 6 gallon tank to fill it exactly halfway?
| 4 | |
| 8 | |
| 6 | |
| 3 |
To fill a 6 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 3 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 1 gallons so:
cans = \( \frac{3 \text{ gallons}}{1 \text{ gallons}} \) = 3
