    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    A rectangle has a length of 12 cm and a width of 8 cm. What is its area?

    • A.

      48 cm2

    • B.

      56 cm2

    • C.

      96 cm2

    • D.

      100 cm2

    Correct Answer
    C. 96 cm2
    Explanation
    To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply its length by its width. 

    In this case, the length is 12 cm, and the width is 8 cm. 

    So, the area (A) of the rectangle is:

    [ A = {length} x {width} = 12 , {cm} x 8 , {cm} = 96 cm2 ]

    Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 96 cm2.

      4

    • C.

      6

    • D.

      7

    Correct Answer
    A. 3
    Explanation
    The result of dividing 42 by 14 is 3. This is because 42 is evenly divisible by 14; when you divide 42 (the dividend) by 14 (the divisor), you get 3 (the quotient). This means that 14 fits into 42 exactly 3 times without any remainder, illustrating a basic principle of division. ​​

    If a person has 440 pens and 560 pencils, how many more pencils does he have than pens?

    • C.

      130

    • D.

      140

    Correct Answer
    B. 120
    Explanation
    If a person has 560 pencils and 440 pens, they have 120 more pencils than pens. This is found by subtracting the number of pens from the number of pencils. In other words, if you took away all the pens from the total amount of writing instruments, you would be left with 120 pencils.

      36

    Correct Answer
    D. 36
    Explanation
    6 multiplied by 6 equals 36. This is because multiplication is repeated addition, and adding 6 together 6 times equals 36. Another way to think about this is if you had 6 groups of 6 items, you would have 36 items in total.

    Correct Answer
    B. 4.5
    Explanation
    8 - 3.5 equals 4.5. This is found by subtracting 3.5 from 8. In other words, if you had 8 items and you took away 3.5 of them, you would be left with 4.5 items.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    7 + 8 + 9 + 10 =

    • D.

      40

    Correct Answer
    A. 34
    Explanation
    7 + 8 + 9 + 10 equals 34. This is the total when you add these four numbers together. Addition is simply combining numbers to get a total sum. In this case, if you had 7 items, 8 items, 9 items, and 10 items, and you combined them all together, you would have 34 items in total.

    Explanation
    The total of 667 oranges and 301 bananas is 968. This is found by adding the number of oranges and bananas together. If you had 667 oranges and 301 bananas and you put them all together, you would have 968 pieces of fruit.

    • B.

      17

    • C.

      782

    • D.

      0

    Correct Answer
    D. 0
    Explanation
    Any number multiplied by 0 equals 0. So, 472 multiplied by 0 is also 0. This is because when we multiply any number by 0, we are essentially adding zero copies of that number together, resulting in a total of 0. This is a fundamental rule of multiplication.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Which of these answer choices produces the biggest value?

    • A.

      450 - 78

    • B.

      12 x 12

    • C.

      700 - 301

    • D.

      258 + 107

    Correct Answer
    C. 700 - 301
    Explanation
    Among the given options, 12 x 12 produces the biggest value. This is because 12 multiplied by 12 equals 144, which is greater than any of the other results. The other options produce smaller numbers because they involve either smaller numbers, subtraction, or addition. Multiplication tends to produce larger numbers, especially when larger numbers are being multiplied together.
