About This Quiz

The '^' symbol acts as 'to the power of' so that the term "" three to the power of 2 "" can be written as "3^2", which means 3 X 3.

Multiplication can be shown by either 'x' or '*'. If variables are present, the * will be used, such as 5x * 3, but if no variables are used, it will be written as 5 x 3.

       Which answer is the opposite of the quotient of 48 and 3?

    • -2(5+4)

    • 12 + (-28)

    • 42 / -2

    • 12 * 12

    Correct Answer
    A. 12 + (-28)
    Explanation
    The given expression "12 + (-28)" is the opposite of the quotient of 48 and 3. The quotient of 48 and 3 is 16, and the opposite of 16 is -16. Therefore, the expression "12 + (-28)" is the opposite of the quotient of 48 and 3.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    The associative property of addition says that you can "change the groupings" of numbers in addition, but the answer will be the same. For example (4 + 5) + 6 = 4 + (5 + 6).  Which example shows the associative property of multiplication?  (* is the symbol for multiplication).

    • 8 * 7 = 7 * 8

    • 2 * 4 * 6 = 4 * 6 * 2

    • (9 + 8) + 7 = 9 + (8 + 7)

    • (5 * 6) * 7 = 7 * (6 * 5)

    Explanation
    The answer has to be C, D, or E, because they are the only three with ( ... ) Answer C is addition, so it cannot be the answer. Look closely at answer D. The (group) does not change, they are still 5 and 6.

    • 32

    • 33

    • 34

    Correct Answer
    A. 33
    Explanation
    The elevator starts on the fifth floor and travels to the tenth floor with three people on board. Then, two more people get on and everyone travels to the 13th floor, where four people get off. Two more people get on and everyone travels to the 18th floor. Finally, five more people get on and the elevator goes down to the second floor. Three more people get on and the elevator goes down four floors to the basement. Therefore, the elevator traveled a total of 33 floors from start to finish.

    • 714,000

    • .714

    Correct Answer
    A. .714
    Explanation
    The answer is .714 because when you multiply 21 by 34, you get 714. To find the product of 0.21 and 3.4, you can move the decimal point two places to the left in both numbers, resulting in .21 and 3.4. When you multiply these two numbers, you get .714.

    Which statement or statements below is/are false?

    • (8 - 3)(6) = 30

    • 49 / 7 = (3 * 4 + 2) / 2

    • -2 x 5 x -9 = -90

    • 8 + 4 + 9 + (-8) = 13

    Correct Answer
    A. -2 x 5 x -9 = -90
    Explanation
    The statement "-2 x 5 x -9 = -90" is true because when multiplying two negative numbers, the result is positive. In this case, -2 x -9 = 18, and then multiplying 18 by 5 results in -90.

    • {23, 39, 47}

    • {29, 31, 43}

    Correct Answer
    A. {29, 31, 43}
    Explanation
    The set {29, 31, 43} has only prime numbers because all three numbers in the set, 29, 31, and 43, have only two factors, 1 and themselves. Therefore, they meet the definition of prime numbers.

    • 8 and 13 are factors of 104

    • 14 and 5 factors of 70

    • 18 and 3 are factors of 64

    Correct Answer
    A. 18 and 3 are factors of 64
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 18 and 3 are factors of 64. This statement does not show the same relationship because 18 and 3 do not multiply together to give a product of 64.

         Imagine that there is a test with 20 questions.  Each question is worth the same percent value as every other question.  Therefore, each question is worth _____ of your grade.

    • 20%

    • 10%

    • 5%

    • 2%

    Correct Answer
    A. 5%
    Explanation
    Each question is worth 5% of your grade because there are 20 questions in total and each question is worth the same percent value as every other question. So, if we divide 100% (the total possible grade) by 20 (the number of questions), we get 5%.
