1

Which of these numbers is a factor of 64?

68% Answer Correctly
8
1
27
59

Solution

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 64 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64.


2

Solve 3 + (3 + 3) ÷ 5 x 4 - 32

52% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{4}{5}\)
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{5}{7}\)
-1\(\frac{1}{5}\)

Solution

Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):

3 + (3 + 3) ÷ 5 x 4 - 32
P: 3 + (6) ÷ 5 x 4 - 32
E: 3 + 6 ÷ 5 x 4 - 9
MD: 3 + \( \frac{6}{5} \) x 4 - 9
MD: 3 + \( \frac{24}{5} \) - 9
AS: \( \frac{15}{5} \) + \( \frac{24}{5} \) - 9
AS: \( \frac{39}{5} \) - 9
AS: \( \frac{39 - 45}{5} \)
\( \frac{-6}{5} \)
-1\(\frac{1}{5}\)


3

What is \( \frac{9x^8}{1x^4} \)?

60% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{9}\)x4
9x-4
9x4
\(\frac{1}{9}\)x-4

Solution

To divide terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

\( \frac{9x^8}{x^4} \)
\( \frac{9}{1} \) x(8 - 4)
9x4

A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 5% off." If Monty buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $34, how much will he pay for both shirts?

57% Answer Correctly
$1.70
$49.30
$66.30
$51.00

Solution

By buying two shirts, Monty will save $34 x \( \frac{5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$34 x 5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$170}{100} \) = $1.70 on the second shirt.

So, his total cost will be
$34.00 + ($34.00 - $1.70)
$34.00 + $32.30
$66.30


5

What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 4 hours at an average speed of 20 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
315 miles
90 miles
80 miles
600 miles

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 distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 20mph \times 4h \)
80 miles
