How many hours does it take a car to travel 200 miles at an average speed of 50 miles per hour?

86% Answer Correctly
6 hours
4 hours
3 hours
5 hours

Solution

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

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{200mi}{50mph} \)
4 hours

3

What is \( \frac{1}{8} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{8} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{3}\)
\(\frac{1}{18}\)
\(\frac{3}{20}\)
\(\frac{1}{9}\)

Solution

To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:

\( \frac{1}{8} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{8} \) = \( \frac{1}{8} \) x \( \frac{8}{3} \)

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{1}{8} \) x \( \frac{8}{3} \) = \( \frac{1 x 8}{8 x 3} \) = \( \frac{8}{24} \) = \(\frac{1}{3}\)

If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 3:1 and all 37,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

50% Answer Correctly
26,400
27,750
32,667
37,500

Solution

A ratio of 3:1 means that there are 3 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 4 fans, 3 are home fans and \( \frac{3}{4} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

37,000 fans x \( \frac{3}{4} \) = \( \frac{111000}{4} \) = 27,750 fans.
