April scored 93% on her final exam. If each question was worth 2 points and there were 60 possible points on the exam, how many questions did April answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
30
13
16
28

Solution

April scored 93% on the test meaning she earned 93% of the possible points on the test. There were 60 possible points on the test so she earned 60 x 0.93 = 56 points. Each question is worth 2 points so she got \( \frac{56}{2} \) = 28 questions right.

56% Answer Correctly
2
9
6
5

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 30 pounds of food in 5 days that's \( \frac{30}{5} \) = 6 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 66 - 30 = 36 more pounds of food to reach 66 pounds total. At 6 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{36}{6} \) = 6 more days.


4

A bread recipe calls for 2\(\frac{5}{8}\) cups of flour. If you only have \(\frac{1}{4}\) cup, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
3\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
2 cups
2\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups
1\(\frac{5}{8}\) cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (2\(\frac{5}{8}\) - \(\frac{1}{4}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{21}{8} \) - \( \frac{2}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{19}{8} \) cups
2\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups


5

How many hours does it take a car to travel 150 miles at an average speed of 25 miles per hour?

85% Answer Correctly
9 hours
2 hours
6 hours
7 hours

Solution

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

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{150mi}{25mph} \)
6 hours
