If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 2:1 and all 45,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?

49% Answer Correctly
35,833
37,500
35,200
30,000

Solution

A ratio of 2:1 means that there are 2 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 3 fans, 2 are home fans and \( \frac{2}{3} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:

45,000 fans x \( \frac{2}{3} \) = \( \frac{90000}{3} \) = 30,000 fans.

Find the average of the following numbers: 10, 2, 7, 5.

75% Answer Correctly
3
6
2
9

Solution

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

\( \frac{10 + 2 + 7 + 5}{4} \) = \( \frac{24}{4} \) = 6


4

Solve for \( \frac{2!}{5!} \)

67% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{1}{9} \)
210
5
\( \frac{1}{60} \)

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:

\( \frac{2!}{5!} \)
\( \frac{2 \times 1}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{5 \times 4 \times 3} \)
\( \frac{1}{60} \)

How many 1 gallon cans worth of fuel would you need to pour into an empty 6 gallon tank to fill it exactly halfway?

52% Answer Correctly
3
8
7
5

Solution

To fill a 6 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 3 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 1 gallons so:

cans = \( \frac{3 \text{ gallons}}{1 \text{ gallons}} \) = 3
