1

A tiger in a zoo has consumed 63 pounds of food in 9 days. If the tiger continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total food consumtion be 84 pounds?

56% Answer Correctly
10
3
9
2

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 63 pounds of food in 9 days that's \( \frac{63}{9} \) = 7 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 84 - 63 = 21 more pounds of food to reach 84 pounds total. At 7 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{21}{7} \) = 3 more days.


2

68% Answer Correctly
23
12
24

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20.


3

If a car travels 450 miles in 9 hours, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
45 mph
50 mph
40 mph
25 mph

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)
speed = \( \frac{450mi}{9h} \)
50 mph


4

If a mayor is elected with 89% of the votes cast and 39% of a town's 47,000 voters cast a vote, how many votes did the mayor receive?

49% Answer Correctly
9,348
16,314
13,931
15,397

Solution

If 39% of the town's 47,000 voters cast ballots the number of votes cast is:

(\( \frac{39}{100} \)) x 47,000 = \( \frac{1,833,000}{100} \) = 18,330

The mayor got 89% of the votes cast which is:

(\( \frac{89}{100} \)) x 18,330 = \( \frac{1,631,370}{100} \) = 16,314 votes.


5

What is \( \frac{20\sqrt{20}}{4\sqrt{5}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{5}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \)
5 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \)
4 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{5}} \)
5 \( \sqrt{4} \)

Solution

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

\( \frac{20\sqrt{20}}{4\sqrt{5}} \)
\( \frac{20}{4} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{20}{5}} \)
5 \( \sqrt{4} \)
