Which of these numbers is a factor of 24?

68% Answer Correctly
24
28
13
12

Solution

The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24.


2

What is \( \frac{35\sqrt{20}}{5\sqrt{4}} \)?

71% Answer Correctly
5 \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \)
\(\frac{1}{7}\) \( \sqrt{5} \)
7 \( \sqrt{5} \)
\(\frac{1}{5}\) \( \sqrt{\frac{1}{7}} \)

Solution

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

\( \frac{35\sqrt{20}}{5\sqrt{4}} \)
\( \frac{35}{5} \) \( \sqrt{\frac{20}{4}} \)
7 \( \sqrt{5} \)


3

If a car travels 225 miles in 9 hours, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
55 mph
20 mph
15 mph
25 mph

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)
speed = \( \frac{225mi}{9h} \)
25 mph


4

How many 6-passenger vans will it take to drive all 55 members of the football team to an away game?

81% Answer Correctly
10 vans
11 vans
6 vans
9 vans

Solution

Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:

vans = \( \frac{55}{6} \) = 9\(\frac{1}{6}\)

So, it will take 9 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 10 vans.


5

Charlie loaned Monica $500 at an annual interest rate of 3%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$515
$510
$520
$530

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 $500
i = 0.03 x $500

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $500 + $15
total = $515
