1

What is \( \frac{14\sqrt{20}}{7\sqrt{5}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
4 \( \sqrt{2} \)
2 \( \sqrt{4} \)
4 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} \)
\(\frac{1}{4}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} \)

Solution

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

\( \frac{14\sqrt{20}}{7\sqrt{5}} \)
\( \frac{14}{7} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{20}{5}} \)
2 \( \sqrt{4} \)


2

The __________ is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.

56% Answer Correctly

greatest common factor

least common multiple

absolute value

least common factor


Solution

The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.


3

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

4 x 3

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

3 x 2 x 1


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


4

The total water usage for a city is 40,000 gallons each day. Of that total, 31% is for personal use and 62% is for industrial use. How many more gallons of water each day is consumed for industrial use over personal use?

58% Answer Correctly
9,000
3,250
12,400
4,200

Solution

62% of the water consumption is industrial use and 31% is personal use so (62% - 31%) = 31% more water is used for industrial purposes. 40,000 gallons are consumed daily so industry consumes \( \frac{31}{100} \) x 40,000 gallons = 12,400 gallons.


5

Find the average of the following numbers: 8, 4, 7, 5.

74% Answer Correctly
9
4
6
7

Solution

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{8 + 4 + 7 + 5}{4} \) = \( \frac{24}{4} \) = 6
