1A water tank holding 80 gallons leaks until it holds 60 gallons. What is the percent decrease in the amount of water?
A.75%
B.33.3%
C.20%
D.25%
Explanation: Percent decrease = (change / original) × 100%. The change is 80 - 60 = 20 gallons. Divided by original: 20 / 80 = 0.25 = 25%.
2Brand A sells a 12-ounce cereal box for $3.60. Brand B sells an 18-ounce cereal box for $4.50. What is the difference in unit price per ounce between the two brands?
A.$0.10 per ounce
B.$0.05 per ounce
C.$0.02 per ounce
D.$0.90 per ounce
Explanation: Brand A unit price = $3.60 / 12 = $0.30/oz. Brand B unit price = $4.50 / 18 = $0.25/oz. Difference = $0.30 - $0.25 = $0.05 per ounce.
3At a restaurant, a meal costs $50. Sales tax is 8%, and a tip of 18% is calculated on the pre-tax bill. What is the grand total of meal, tax, and tip?
A.$60.00
B.$59.00
C.$64.00
D.$63.00
Explanation: Tax = 8% of $50 = $4.00. Tip = 18% of $50 = $9.00. Total = $50 + $4 + $9 = $63.00.
4A garden hose fills a bucket at a rate of 3.5 gallons per minute. Which equation models the total gallons of water, y, filled in x minutes?
A.x = 3.5y
B.y = 3.5 / x
C.y = 3.5x
D.y = x + 3.5
Explanation: Total gallons y equals rate per minute (3.5) multiplied by number of minutes x: y = 3.5x.
5A baker uses 3 cups of flour to make 12 cookies. How many cups of flour are needed to make 28 cookies of the same size?
A.9 cups
B.7 cups
C.6 cups
D.8 cups
Explanation: The unit rate is 3 cups / 12 cookies = 1/4 cup per cookie. For 28 cookies: 28 × (1/4) = 7 cups of flour.
6A smartphone is on sale for $480 after a 20% discount. What was the original price of the smartphone before the discount?
A.$620
B.$500
C.$576
D.$600
Explanation: The sale price represents 80% (100% - 20%) of the original price x. Set up the equation: 0.80x = 480. Solve for x: x = 480 / 0.80 = $600.
7A student measured the length of a desk as 12.5 inches. The actual length measured by a precision ruler is 10.0 inches. What is the percent error?
A.15%
B.20%
C.2.5%
D.25%
Explanation: Percent error = |12.5 - 10.0| / 10.0 × 100% = 2.5 / 10.0 × 100% = 0.25 × 100% = 25%.
8A painter paints 2/5 of a wall in 1/4 hour. At this rate, how many full walls can the painter paint in 1 hour?
A.0.1 walls
B.1.0 wall
C.2.0 walls
D.1.6 walls
Explanation: Rate per hour = (2/5) ÷ (1/4) = (2/5) × (4/1) = 8/5 = 1.6 walls per hour.
9Liam invests $1,200 into an account paying 5% simple annual interest. What will be the total balance in the account after 2 years?
A.$1,260
B.$1,440
C.$1,320
D.$120
Explanation: Interest I = P × r × t = 1200 × 0.05 × 2 = $120. Total balance = Principal + Interest = $1,200 + $120 = $1,320.
10A coat originally priced at $120 is discounted by 25%. Then an 8% sales tax is applied to the discounted price. What is the final total cost?
A.$99.60
B.$97.20
C.$90.00
D.$104.40
Explanation: Discounted price = $120 × (1 - 0.25) = $120 × 0.75 = $90. Sales tax = 8% of $90 = 0.08 × 90 = $7.20. Total cost = $90 + $7.20 = $97.20.
