Calculator not allowed Given that 7 x 8 = 56, what is 70 x 800?
Correct Answer
56000
56,000Explanation
The given question asks to calculate 70 x 800. To find the answer, we can use the distributive property of multiplication. We know that 70 = 7 x 10 and 800 = 8 x 100. Therefore, 70 x 800 = (7 x 10) x (8 x 100) = 7 x 8 x 10 x 100 = 56 x 1000 = 56,000.Rate this question:

Calculator not allowed Given that 7 x 8 = 56, what is 5.6 ÷ 7?
Correct Answer
0.8Explanation
To find the value of 5.6 divided by 7, we can use the fact that 7 multiplied by 8 is equal to 56. Since 5.6 is 10 times smaller than 56, we can divide 56 by 10 to get the answer. Therefore, 5.6 divided by 7 is equal to 0.8.Rate this question:
- 15.
Calculator not allowed What is 55% of 140?
Correct Answer
77Explanation
To find 55% of 140, you can multiply 140 by 0.55. This will give you the result of 77, which is the correct answer.Rate this question:

Calculator not allowed A teacher earning £25,000 a year is given a pay rise. The new salary if £26,000. What is the percentage increase in salary?
Correct Answer
4
4%Explanation
The percentage increase in salary can be calculated by finding the difference between the new salary and the old salary, which is £26,000 - £25,000 = £1,000. Then, divide this difference by the old salary (£1,000 / £25,000) and multiply by 100 to convert it into a percentage. This gives us a percentage increase of 4%.Rate this question:

Calculator not allowed Given that 7 x 8 = 56, what is 0.08 x 0.7?
Correct Answer
0.056Explanation
To solve this question, we can multiply 0.08 by 0.7 without using a calculator. We can start by multiplying 8 by 7, which equals 56. Since there are two decimal places in the question (0.08 and 0.7), we need to move the decimal point two places to the left in our answer. Therefore, the answer is 0.056.Rate this question:

What is the average speed for a journey of 175km undertaken in 2 hours and 30 mins? (enter the digits only, not the units)
Correct Answer
70Explanation
The average speed for a journey is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by the total time taken. In this case, the total distance is 175 km and the total time is 2 hours and 30 minutes, which is equivalent to 2.5 hours. Dividing 175 km by 2.5 hours gives us an average speed of 70 km/h.Rate this question:

Look at the data set below: 12 14 1 9 2 16 5 8 6 8 8 7 What is the mean?
Correct Answer
8Explanation
The mean is calculated by adding up all the numbers in the data set and then dividing the sum by the total number of values. In this case, the sum of all the numbers is 100 (12 + 14 + 1 + 9 + 2 + 16 + 5 + 8 + 6 + 8 + 8 + 7 = 100). Since there are 12 numbers in the data set, the mean is 100 divided by 12, which equals 8.Rate this question:

Every rhombus is a square
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The statement "Every rhombus is a square" is false. While it is true that a square is a type of rhombus with equal angles, not every rhombus is a square. A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides of equal length, but its angles can be any value other than 90 degrees. Therefore, there are rhombuses that are not squares.Rate this question:

The linear scale factor between ABC and A'B'C' is 0.4. What is the length of B'C'?
Correct Answer
6
6cmExplanation
The length of B'C' is 6 or 6cm because the linear scale factor between ABC and A'B'C' is given as 0.4. This means that every length in ABC is multiplied by 0.4 to get the corresponding length in A'B'C'. Since the length of BC is not specified, we can assume it to be 6 or 6cm and multiply it by 0.4 to get the length of B'C', which is also 6 or 6cm.Rate this question:

Which is the general term for this function machine? 1 ------> 3 2 ------> 7 3 ------> 11 4 ------> 15 5 ------> 19 n ------>
-
2n + 1
-
4n - 1
-
3n + 1
-
N + 2n
Correct Answer
A. 4n - 1Explanation
The general term for this function machine is 4n - 1. This can be determined by observing the pattern in the given inputs and outputs. Each output is 1 less than 4 times the corresponding input. Therefore, the general rule for this function machine is to multiply the input by 4 and then subtract 1.Rate this question:

The linear scale factor between ABC and A'B'C' is 0.4. What is the length of A'C'?
Correct Answer
10
10cmExplanation
The length of A'C' is 10cm. This is because the linear scale factor between ABC and A'B'C' is 0.4, which means that every length in ABC is reduced to 0.4 times its original length in A'B'C'. Since the length of AC is 10cm, the length of A'C' will also be 10cm.Rate this question:

Every square is a parallellogram
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Every square is a parallelogram because a square has four sides that are all equal in length and four angles that are all right angles. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length. Since a square meets all the criteria of a parallelogram, it can be concluded that every square is a parallelogram. Therefore, the correct answer is True.Rate this question:

Calculator not allowed: Find the highest common factor of 48 and 72
Correct Answer
24Explanation
The highest common factor (HCF) of two numbers is the largest number that divides both of them without leaving a remainder. In this case, we can find the HCF of 48 and 72 by listing out their factors and finding the largest one they have in common. The factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48. The factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 72. The largest factor that they both have in common is 24, so the HCF of 48 and 72 is 24.Rate this question:

What is the order of rotational symmetry for this shape?
Correct Answer
1Explanation
The order of rotational symmetry for a shape refers to the number of times the shape can be rotated and still look the same. In this case, the shape has only one line of symmetry, which means it can only be rotated 180 degrees and still maintain its original form. Therefore, the order of rotational symmetry for this shape is 1.Rate this question:
