1

Which of these numbers is a factor of 32?

69% Answer Correctly
20
2
24
35

Solution

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


2

Simplify \( \sqrt{125} \)

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

Solution

To simplify a radical, factor out the perfect squares:

\( \sqrt{125} \)
\( \sqrt{25 \times 5} \)
\( \sqrt{5^2 \times 5} \)
5\( \sqrt{5} \)


3

What is the least common multiple of 4 and 8?

72% Answer Correctly
15
8
14
6

Solution

The first few multiples of 4 are [4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40] and the first few multiples of 8 are [8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80]. The first few multiples they share are [8, 16, 24, 32, 40] making 8 the smallest multiple 4 and 8 have in common.


4

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, __________ ?

69% Answer Correctly
24
31
38
33

Solution

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 2(n - 1)

where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:

a6 = a5 + 2(6 - 1)
a6 = 21 + 2(5)
a6 = 31


5

The __________ is the greatest factor that divides two integers.

67% Answer Correctly

absolute value

greatest common factor

greatest common multiple

least common multiple


Solution

The greatest common factor (GCF) is the greatest factor that divides two integers.
