Diane scored 88% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 120 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Diane answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
41
43
35
22

Solution

Diane scored 88% on the test meaning she earned 88% of the possible points on the test. There were 120 possible points on the test so she earned 120 x 0.88 = 105 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{105}{3} \) = 35 questions right.

Bob loaned Roger $1,100 at an annual interest rate of 9%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly
$24
$6
$20
$99

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $1,100
i = 0.09 x $1,100
i = $99

In a class of 31 students, 15 are taking German and 10 are taking Spanish. Of the students studying German or Spanish, 7 are taking both courses. How many students are not enrolled in either course?

63% Answer Correctly
21
16
13
10

Solution

The number of students taking German or Spanish is 15 + 10 = 25. Of that group of 25, 7 are taking both languages so they've been counted twice (once in the German group and once in the Spanish group). Subtracting them out leaves 25 - 7 = 18 who are taking at least one language. 31 - 18 = 13 students who are not taking either language.
