A certain box contains baseballs and golf balls. If the ratio of baseballs to
golf balls is 2:3 and there are 30 baseballs in the box, how many golf balls
are in the box?
(a) 18
(b) 20
(c) 36
(d) 45
(d) 45
You can express the ratio of baseballs to golf balls as 2/3. Since you know the
number of baseballs, you can set up a proportion: 2/3 = 30/ (x) where (x) is
the number of golf balls. To solve, cross-multiply to get 2(x) = 90, or x = 45.
,Four people shared a taxi to the airport. The fare was $36.00, and they gave
the driver a tip equal to 25% of the fare. If they equally shared the cost of the
fare and tip, how much did each person pay?
(a) $9.75
(b) $10.25
(c) $10.75
(d) $11.25
(d) $11.25
The total cost of the taxi ride equals $36 + (25% of $36), or $36 + (.25 x $36) =
$36 + $9 =
$45. If four people split the cost equally, then each person paid $45/4, or $11.25
each.
,If a car travels 1/100 of a kilometer each second, how many kilometers does it
travel in an hour?
(a) 36
(b) 60
(c) 72
(d) 100
(a) 36
Find the number of seconds in an hour and then multiply this by the distance
the car is traveling each second. There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60
minute in one hour; therefore, there are 60 x 60, or 3,600, seconds in an hour.
In one second the car travels 1/100 kilometers; in one hour the car will travel
3,600 x 1/100 or 36 kilometers.
20 - (-5) = __.
(a) -25
(b) 25
(c) 15
(d) -15
(b) 25
Subtracting a negative number is the same as addition, so 20 - (-5) is really 20 + 5
= 25.
, Ms. Smith drove a total of 700 miles on a business trip. If her car averaged 35
miles per gallon of gasoline and gasoline cost $1.25 per gallon, what was the
cost in dollars of the gasoline for the trip?
(a) $20.00
(b) $ 24.00
(c) $ 25.00
(d) $40.00
(c) $25.00
If Ms. Smith's car average 35 miles per gallon, she can go 35 miles on 1 gallon.
To go 700 miles she will need 700/35, or 20 gallons of gasoline. The price of
gasoline was $1.25 per gallon, so she spent 20 x $1.25, or $25, for her trip.
