2

April scored 73% on her final exam. If each question was worth 4 points and there were 120 possible points on the exam, how many questions did April answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
36
21
11
22

Solution

April scored 73% on the test meaning she earned 73% of the possible points on the test. There were 120 possible points on the test so she earned 120 x 0.73 = 88 points. Each question is worth 4 points so she got \( \frac{88}{4} \) = 22 questions right.


3

What is the least common multiple of 3 and 11?

72% Answer Correctly
31
16
19
33

Solution

The first few multiples of 3 are [3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30] and the first few multiples of 11 are [11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99]. The first few multiples they share are [33, 66, 99] making 33 the smallest multiple 3 and 11 have in common.


4

Which of the following is an improper fraction?

70% Answer Correctly

\(1 {2 \over 5} \)

\({7 \over 5} \)

\({2 \over 5} \)

\({a \over 5} \)


Solution

A rational number (or fraction) is represented as a ratio between two integers, a and b, and has the form \({a \over b}\) where a is the numerator and b is the denominator. An improper fraction (\({5 \over 3} \)) has a numerator with a greater absolute value than the denominator and can be converted into a mixed number (\(1 {2 \over 3} \)) which has a whole number part and a fractional part.


5

What is 3c3 + 7c3?

66% Answer Correctly
-4c3
10c3
4c3
4c-3

Solution

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so add the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

3c3 + 7c3
(3 + 7)c3
10c3
