1

What is \( \frac{3}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{6} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{4}{7}\)
4\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{9}{14}\)
\(\frac{1}{10}\)

Solution

To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:

\( \frac{3}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{6} \) = \( \frac{3}{7} \) x \( \frac{6}{4} \)

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{3}{7} \) x \( \frac{6}{4} \) = \( \frac{3 x 6}{7 x 4} \) = \( \frac{18}{28} \) = \(\frac{9}{14}\)

3

Simplify \( \sqrt{45} \)

62% Answer Correctly
3\( \sqrt{5} \)
4\( \sqrt{5} \)
8\( \sqrt{5} \)
3\( \sqrt{10} \)

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{45} \)
\( \sqrt{9 \times 5} \)
\( \sqrt{3^2 \times 5} \)
3\( \sqrt{5} \)

Monica scored 93% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 120 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Monica answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
32
28
40
37

Solution

Monica scored 93% on the test meaning she earned 93% of the possible points on the test. There were 120 possible points on the test so she earned 120 x 0.93 = 111 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{111}{3} \) = 37 questions right.
