1

A triathlon course includes a 200m swim, a 30.4km bike ride, and a 2.3km run. What is the total length of the race course?

69% Answer Correctly
36.4km
52.5km
44.5km
32.9km

Solution

To add these distances, they must share the same unit so first you need to first convert the swim distance from meters (m) to kilometers (km) before adding it to the bike and run distances which are already in km. To convert 200 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.2km then add the remaining distances:

total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.2km + 30.4km + 2.3km
total distance = 32.9km


2

What is \( \frac{14\sqrt{21}}{7\sqrt{7}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{3}\) \( \sqrt{2} \)
3 \( \sqrt{2} \)
2 \( \sqrt{3} \)
\(\frac{1}{2}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{3}} \)

Solution

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

\( \frac{14\sqrt{21}}{7\sqrt{7}} \)
\( \frac{14}{7} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{21}{7}} \)
2 \( \sqrt{3} \)


3

9 members of a bridal party need transported to a wedding reception but there are only 3 2-passenger taxis available to take them. How many will need to find other transportation?

75% Answer Correctly
7
8
3
9

Solution

There are 3 2-passenger taxis available so that's 3 x 2 = 6 total seats. There are 9 people needing transportation leaving 9 - 6 = 3 who will have to find other transportation.


4

Find the average of the following numbers: 11, 9, 12, 8.

74% Answer Correctly
10
7
11
12

Solution

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

\( \frac{11 + 9 + 12 + 8}{4} \) = \( \frac{40}{4} \) = 10


5

Solve for \( \frac{4!}{6!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{1}{56} \)
\( \frac{1}{9} \)
5
\( \frac{1}{30} \)

Solution

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:

\( \frac{4!}{6!} \)
\( \frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{6 \times 5} \)
\( \frac{1}{30} \)
