Trivia On 5th Grade Math

Explanation
Among the given numbers, 29.5 is the largest because it has the highest value. The other numbers, 0.295, 2.95, and 0.0295, are all smaller in comparison.

Explanation
The number 13,429,067 is rounded to the nearest hundred-thousand by looking at the digit in the hundred-thousand place, which is 4. Since this digit is less than 5, we round down to the nearest hundred-thousand, which is 13,400,000.

Explanation
61.19 rounded to the nearest tenth is 61.2. When rounding to the nearest tenth, we look at the digit in the hundredth place, which is 9 in this case. Since 9 is greater than or equal to 5, we round up the digit in the tenths place, which is 1, to the next higher number, which is 2. Therefore, the correct answer is 61.2.

Explanation
The number 3,248 is rounded to the nearest thousand by looking at the digit in the thousands place, which is 3. Since the digit to the right of it is less than 5, the thousands place remains the same. Therefore, 3,248 rounded to the nearest thousand is 3,000.

Explanation
When rounding $226.93 to the nearest dollar, we look at the decimal portion, which is $0.93. Since this value is greater than or equal to $0.50, we round up the whole number, resulting in $227. Therefore, the correct answer is 227.

Explanation
To divide a number by 10, we move the decimal point one place to the left. In this case, 708 divided by 10 is equal to 70.8.

Explanation
Among the given numbers, 856,662 is the largest because it has the highest value in the thousands place. The other numbers have the same value in the thousands place, but their values in the hundreds, tens, and units places are smaller than 856,662. Therefore, 856,662 is the largest number.

Explanation
The given equation states that the ratio of 12 to x is equal to the ratio of 6 to 12. To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and find that 12 times 12 is equal to 6 times x. Simplifying further, we get 144 = 6x. Dividing both sides of the equation by 6, we find that x is equal to 24. Therefore, the value of x is 24.

Explanation
The given sequence is formed by multiplying the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the corresponding term number. In the first fraction, 1/4, the numerator and denominator are multiplied by 1. In the second fraction, 2/8, the numerator and denominator are multiplied by 2. In the third fraction, 3/12, the numerator and denominator are multiplied by 3. Therefore, the next fraction in the sequence would be 4/16, which can be simplified to 1/4. The date 16-Apr corresponds to this fraction.

Explanation
The given list of fractions follows a pattern where the numerator and denominator are both increasing by 2. The first fraction 2/3 has a numerator of 2 and a denominator of 3. The second fraction 4/6 has a numerator of 4 (2+2) and a denominator of 6 (3+3). Following the same pattern, the next fraction should have a numerator of 6+2=8 and a denominator of 9+3=12. Therefore, the next fraction in the list is 8/12, which can be simplified to 2/3.

Explanation
The number 237.109 rounded to the nearest one-hundredth is 237.11. When rounding to the nearest one-hundredth, we look at the digit in the thousandth place (9 in this case). Since it is greater than or equal to 5, we round up the digit in the hundredth place (0) to the next higher digit (1). Therefore, the rounded number is 237.11.

Explanation
To find the miles per gallon, divide the total miles driven (504) by the total gallons of gas used (18). This calculation gives us 28, which means that you are able to drive 28 miles for every gallon of gas used.

Explanation
The question is asking for the number 37 hundredths in standard form. Standard form is a way of writing numbers using digits and place value. In this case, 0.37 is the correct answer because it represents 37 hundredths. The first digit to the right of the decimal point represents tenths, and the second digit represents hundredths. Therefore, 0.37 is the standard form for 37 hundredths.

Explanation
When dividing 9.6 by 3.2, we are essentially asking how many times 3.2 can fit into 9.6. By dividing 9.6 by 3.2, we get a quotient of 3, which means that 3.2 can fit into 9.6 three times without any remainder. Therefore, the correct answer is 3.
