1In a science club there are 9 sixth graders and 15 seventh graders. What is the ratio of sixth graders to seventh graders in simplest form?
A.1 to 2
B.5 to 3
C.3 to 5
D.9 to 24
Explanation: The ratio is 9:15. The GCF of 9 and 15 is 3, so divide both parts by 3 to get 3:5. Keep the order named: sixth graders first.
2A store sells 5 notebooks for $12. At the same rate, what is the unit price per notebook?
A.$0.42
B.$2.00
C.$2.40
D.$17.00
Explanation: Unit price is total cost divided by number of notebooks: 12 divided by 5 equals 2.4, so $2.40 per notebook.
3A car travels 150 miles in 3 hours at a constant speed. What is the car's speed in miles per hour?
A.45 miles per hour
B.450 miles per hour
C.147 miles per hour
D.50 miles per hour
Explanation: Speed is distance divided by time: 150 divided by 3 equals 50 miles per hour.
4The ratio of red paint to blue paint in a mixture is 2 to 5. If a painter uses 8 cups of red paint, how many cups of blue paint are needed?
A.4 cups
B.10 cups
C.20 cups
D.13 cups
Explanation: Red scales from 2 to 8, a factor of 4. Multiply blue by 4: 5 times 4 equals 20 cups of blue paint.
5What is 25% of 80?
A.20
B.55
C.200
D.25
Explanation: 25% means 0.25 or 1/4. One-fourth of 80 is 20. Check: 0.25 times 80 equals 20.
6A recipe needs 3 cups of sugar for every 4 cups of flour. How many cups of sugar are needed for 20 cups of flour?
A.15 cups
B.24 cups
C.12 cups
D.16 cups
Explanation: Flour scales from 4 to 20, a factor of 5. Multiply sugar by 5: 3 times 5 equals 15 cups.
7A machine makes 84 widgets in 12 minutes. At that rate, how many widgets does it make per minute?
A.72 widgets per minute
B.7 widgets per minute
C.6 widgets per minute
D.96 widgets per minute
Explanation: Unit rate is 84 divided by 12, which equals 7 widgets per minute.
8On a map, 2 centimeters represents 5 kilometers. How many kilometers are represented by 7 centimeters on the map?
A.35 kilometers
B.10 kilometers
C.14 kilometers
D.17.5 kilometers
Explanation: Each centimeter represents 5/2 = 2.5 kilometers. Then 7 times 2.5 equals 17.5 kilometers. Or set up 2/5 = 7/x and solve: x = 17.5.
9A juice blend uses apple juice and grape juice in the ratio 3:2. If the blend contains 30 liters total, how many liters are apple juice?
A.12 liters
B.18 liters
C.20 liters
D.15 liters
Explanation: Parts: 3 + 2 = 5 equal parts. Each part is 30 divided by 5, which is 6 liters. Apple juice is 3 parts: 3 times 6 equals 18 liters.
10A shirt originally costs $40. During a sale, the price is 15% off. What is the sale price?
A.$6
B.$25
C.$55
D.$34
Explanation: Discount: 15% of $40 is 0.15 times 40, which equals $6. Sale price: $40 minus $6 equals $34.
