1What is the value of the expression 3 + 4 × (8 − 6)²?
A.19
B.49
C.28
D.98
Explanation: Following the order of operations, evaluate inside parentheses first: 8 − 6 = 2. Then the exponent: 2² = 4. Then multiply: 4 × 4 = 16. Finally add: 3 + 16 = 19.
2A rectangle has a length of 12 cm and a width of 5 cm. What is its perimeter?
A.60 cm
B.17 cm
C.34 cm
D.24 cm
Explanation: The perimeter of a rectangle is 2(length + width). So P = 2(12 + 5) = 2(17) = 34 cm.
3Solve for x: 3x − 7 = 14.
A.x = 7
B.x = 21
C.x = 3
D.x = 2.33
Explanation: Add 7 to both sides: 3x = 21. Then divide both sides by 3: x = 7.
4What is 25% of 80?
A.2.5
B.320
C.40
D.20
Explanation: 25% equals 0.25 or one-fourth. One-fourth of 80 is 80 ÷ 4 = 20.
5A bag contains 3 red marbles, 5 blue marbles, and 2 green marbles. If one marble is drawn at random, what is the probability it is blue?
A.1/2
B.3/10
C.5/10
D.2/5
Explanation: There are 3 + 5 + 2 = 10 marbles total, and 5 are blue. The probability is 5/10, which simplifies to 1/2.
6What is the area of a triangle with a base of 10 inches and a height of 6 inches?
A.60 square inches
B.16 square inches
C.30 square inches
D.32 square inches
Explanation: The area of a triangle is (1/2) × base × height. So A = (1/2)(10)(6) = (1/2)(60) = 30 square inches.
7Which of the following fractions is equivalent to 0.75?
A.7/5
B.3/4
C.1/75
D.5/7
Explanation: 0.75 means 75 hundredths, or 75/100. Dividing numerator and denominator by 25 gives 3/4.
8A car travels 150 miles in 3 hours. What is its average speed?
A.450 mph
B.50 mph
C.45 mph
D.30 mph
Explanation: Average speed equals distance divided by time. So speed = 150 ÷ 3 = 50 miles per hour.
9What is the value of 2³ × 2²?
A.2⁶
B.4⁵
C.
D.2⁵
Explanation: When multiplying powers with the same base, add the exponents: 2³ × 2² = 2^(3+2) = 2⁵, which equals 32.
10The mean of the numbers 4, 8, 10, and 14 is:
A.9
B.10
C.36
D.8
Explanation: The mean is the sum divided by the count. Sum = 4 + 8 + 10 + 14 = 36. There are 4 numbers, so mean = 36 ÷ 4 = 9.
