1A pine cone is 4 inches tall. A white pine tree in Maine is 80 times as tall as the pine cone. How tall is the pine tree in inches?
A.320 inches
B.84 inches
C.76 inches
D.32 inches
Explanation: To find a quantity that is 80 times as tall as 4 inches, multiply 4 by 80. $4 \times 80 = 320$ inches. White pine trees are Maine's state tree and can grow very tall!
2Sarah picked 6 quarts of wild blueberries. Her brother Ethan picked 36 quarts. How many times as many quarts of blueberries did Ethan pick compared to Sarah?
A.30 times
B.6 times
C.4 times
D.42 times
Explanation: To find how many times as many quarts Ethan picked, divide Ethan's amount by Sarah's amount: $36 \div 6 = 6$. So, Ethan picked 6 times as many quarts as Sarah.
3Which of the following lists contains all factor pairs of 24?
A.1 and 24, 2 and 12, 3 and 8, 4 and 6
B.1 and 24, 2 and 12, 4 and 6
C.1 and 24, 3 and 8, 5 and 4
D.2 and 12, 3 and 8, 4 and 6
Explanation: The factors of 24 are all positive integers that multiply together to yield 24: $1 \times 24 = 24$, $2 \times 12 = 24$, $3 \times 8 = 24$, and $4 \times 6 = 24$. All four pairs are required for a complete list.
4Which of the following numbers is a prime number?
A.15
B.21
C.29
D.33
Explanation: A prime number is a whole number greater than 1 that has only two factors: 1 and itself. 29 has no other factors besides 1 and 29. Therefore, 29 is prime.
5Which of the following numbers is a multiple of 7?
A.27
B.35
C.44
D.52
Explanation: Multiples of 7 are numbers obtained by multiplying 7 by a whole number: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49... Since $7 \times 5 = 35$, 35 is a multiple of 7.
6Which equation represents the statement: '72 is 9 times as many as 8'?
A.$72 = 9 + 8$
B.$72 = 9 \times 8$
C.$72 - 9 = 8$
D.$72 \div 8 = 64$
Explanation: Multiplicative comparison uses multiplication to state how many times larger one quantity is than another. '72 is 9 times as many as 8' translates directly to $72 = 9 \times 8$.
7A bakery in Bar Harbor has 50 lobster rolls to put into boxes. Each box holds 6 lobster rolls. How many full boxes can the bakery pack, and how many lobster rolls will be left over?
A.8 boxes with 2 left over
B.8 boxes with 4 left over
C.7 boxes with 8 left over
D.9 boxes with 0 left over
Explanation: Divide 50 by 6: $50 \div 6 = 8$ with a remainder of 2, because $6 \times 8 = 48$ and $50 - 48 = 2$. So, the bakery packs 8 full boxes with 2 lobster rolls left over.
8A school bus can hold 45 passengers. A total of 190 students and teachers from Portland are going on a field trip. What is the minimum number of buses needed so that everyone has a seat?
A.4 buses
B.5 buses
C.6 buses
D.10 buses
Explanation: Divide 190 by 45: $190 \div 45 = 4$ with a remainder of 10 ($45 \times 4 = 180$). Four buses will transport 180 passengers, leaving 10 people without a seat. Therefore, a 5th bus is required to carry everyone.
9Which of the following lists contains ONLY prime numbers?
A.2, 3, 5, 7, 11
B.2, 3, 9, 11, 13
C.5, 10, 15, 20
D.7, 11, 13, 15
Explanation: The numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11 each have exactly two factors (1 and the number itself). Thus, all numbers in this list are prime numbers.
10Hannah wants to prove that 48 is a composite number. Which factor pair proves that 48 is composite?
A.1 and 48
B.6 and 8
C.0 and 48
D.7 and 7
Explanation: A composite number has factors other than 1 and itself. Since $6 \times 8 = 48$, the factor pair (6, 8) shows that 48 has factors besides 1 and 48, proving it is composite.
