    • 6 months

    • 9 months

    • 12 months

    • 18 months

    Correct Answer
    A. 9 months
    Explanation
    LaTina is saving $60 a month for her vacation. To find out how long it will take her to save enough, we divide the total amount she needs to save ($540) by the amount she saves each month ($60). The result is 9, which means it will take her 9 months to save enough for her vacation.

    • $450

    • $900

    • $1,200

    Correct Answer
    A. $1,200
    Explanation
    Anna saves $75 every month. To find out how much she will save in 16 months, we can multiply her monthly savings by the number of months. Therefore, $75 multiplied by 16 equals $1,200.

    • 100.00

    • 99.95

    • 175.55

    Correct Answer
    A. 99.95
    Explanation
    After writing the check for $37.80, Ron's balance will decrease by that amount. Subtracting $37.80 from his previous balance of $137.75 gives us $99.95, which is his new balance.

    • $500

    • $600

    • $1,000

    • $1,200

    Correct Answer
    A. $600
    Explanation
    Ella spends $50 per month on her cell phone. To find out how much she pays in a year, we need to multiply $50 by 12 (the number of months in a year). $50 x 12 = $600. Therefore, Ella pays $600 for her cell phone in a year.

    According to the graph, how many slices of wheat toast can Jim eat and only consume 270 calories? - ProProfs

    According to the graph, how many slices of wheat toast can Jim eat and only consume 270 calories?

    • 2

    • 3

    • 4

    • 5

    Correct Answer
    A. 3
    Explanation
    Based on the graph, the number of slices of wheat toast that Jim can eat and consume 270 calories is 3. This can be determined by finding the point on the graph where the calorie intake is equal to 270, and then looking at the corresponding number of slices of wheat toast on the x-axis. In this case, the point where the line intersects the 270 calorie mark corresponds to 3 slices of wheat toast.

    What is the mean of numbers 20, 25, and 30?

    • 22

    • 25

    • 29

    • 50

    Correct Answer
    A. 25
    Explanation
    The mean is calculated by adding up all the numbers and then dividing the sum by the total number of values. In this case, the sum of 20, 25, and 30 is 75. Dividing 75 by 3 (the total number of values) gives us 25, which is the mean of the given numbers.

    Marty needs to pack 32 glasses. Each box holds 6 glasses. How many boxes will be completely full?

    • 4

    • 5

    • 6

    • 7

    Correct Answer
    A. 5
    Explanation
    To determine the number of boxes that will be completely full, we divide the total number of glasses (32) by the number of glasses that can fit in each box (6). This calculation gives us 5 boxes with 30 glasses packed in total, leaving 2 glasses remaining. Since the question asks for the number of completely full boxes, the correct answer is 5.

    A dozen pens costs $5.99. About how much does one pen cost?

    • $0.50

    • $0.40

    • $1.00

    • $1.50

    Correct Answer
    A. $0.50
    Explanation
    The total cost of a dozen pens is $5.99. To find the cost of one pen, we divide the total cost by the number of pens in a dozen, which is 12. Therefore, $5.99 divided by 12 is approximately $0.50.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 

    Anya spent $32 of the $63 she received for her birthday. She spent about

    • 1/4 of the amount

    • 1/3 of the amount

    • 1/2 of the amount

    • 2/3 of the amount

    Correct Answer
    A. 1/2 of the amount
    Explanation
    Anya spent $32 out of the $63 she received for her birthday. To find out what fraction of the amount she spent, we can divide the amount she spent ($32) by the total amount she received ($63). This calculation gives us 32/63, which can be simplified to 16/31. However, none of the given answer choices match this fraction exactly. The closest answer is "1/2 of the amount," which is equal to 31/63. Although it is not an exact match, it is the closest approximation and therefore the correct answer.

    Rate this question:

  • 27. 

    Rick decided to run in a marathon, which is slighty more than 26 miles long. About how many kilometers will he run? (Hint: 1 mi = 1.6 km)

    • 4 kilometers

    • 10 kilometers

    • 41 kilometers

    • 150 kilometers

    Correct Answer
    A. 41 kilometers
    Explanation
    Since 1 mile is equal to 1.6 kilometers, to convert 26 miles to kilometers, we multiply 26 by 1.6. This gives us 41.6 kilometers. However, since the question asks for an approximate answer, we round down to the nearest whole number, which is 41 kilometers. Therefore, Rick will run approximately 41 kilometers in the marathon.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    Tim's test scores were 85, 90, 93, and 88. What was his average score?

    • 80

    • 86

    • 89

    • 94

    Correct Answer
    A. 89
    Explanation
    To find the average score, you need to add up all the scores and divide by the number of scores. In this case, the sum of Tim's scores is 85 + 90 + 93 + 88 = 356. Since there are 4 scores, you divide 356 by 4 to get the average score. 356 divided by 4 equals 89. Therefore, Tim's average score is 89.

    Rate this question:

  • 29. 

    A bus company records how many people ride a particualar bus each day. The number of riders was 22, 20, 30, 14, and 24. What was the mean numbers of riders?

    • 18

    • 22

    • 28

    • 30

    Correct Answer
    A. 22
    Explanation
    The mean number of riders can be calculated by adding up all the numbers and then dividing by the total number of days. In this case, the sum of the numbers is 22 + 20 + 30 + 14 + 24 = 110. Since there are 5 days, the mean number of riders is 110 / 5 = 22. Therefore, the correct answer is 22.

    Rate this question:

    • 40

    • 50

    Correct Answer
    A. 40
    Explanation
    The number pattern alternates between multiplying by 2 and multiplying by 10. The pattern starts with 5, then multiplies by 2 to get 10, then multiplies by 10 to get 20, and so on. The missing number should be the result of multiplying 4 by 10, which is 40.

    Lee has finished reading 4 out of 10 lessons from his assignment. Which fractional part of the lessons has he completed?

    • 1/10

    • 1/5

    • 2/3

    • 2/5

    Correct Answer
    A. 2/5
    Explanation
    Lee has finished reading 4 out of 10 lessons from his assignment. To find the fractional part of the lessons he has completed, we can divide the number of lessons completed (4) by the total number of lessons (10). This gives us 4/10, which can be simplified to 2/5. Therefore, Lee has completed 2/5 or two-fifths of the lessons.

    Jay's monthly payment for a new car would be about 1/2 of his repair expenses from January to April. Which of these could be the amount of Jay's monthly payment for a new car?

    • $250.00

    • $200.00

    • $300.00

    • $350.00

    Correct Answer
    A. $250.00
    Explanation
    Jay's repair expenses from January to April are twice the amount of his monthly payment for a new car. Therefore, if we divide the total repair expenses by 2, we can find the monthly payment. If we assume the repair expenses from January to April to be $500, then dividing it by 2 gives us $250, which matches the given answer. Therefore, $250.00 could be the amount of Jay's monthly payment for a new car.
