Sample Puerto Rico CRECE Mathematics Grade 6 Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Puerto Rico CRECE Mathematics Grade 6 exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A fruit basket contains 12 red apples and 18 green apples. What is the ratio of red apples to green apples in simplest form?
A.2 : 3
B.3 : 2
C.2 : 5
D.4 : 6
Explanation: To simplify the ratio 12 : 18, divide both numbers by their greatest common factor, which is 6. Thus, 12 ÷ 6 = 2 and 18 ÷ 6 = 3, giving the simplified ratio 2 : 3.
2Carlos bought 3 identical spiral notebooks for a total cost of $15.00. What is the unit cost per notebook?
A.$3.00
B.$5.00
C.$12.00
D.$45.00
Explanation: To find the unit cost per notebook, divide the total cost by the number of notebooks: $15.00 ÷ 3 = $5.00 per notebook.
3What is $40\%$ expressed as a fraction in simplest form?
A.$\frac{1}{4}$
B.$\frac{2}{5}$
C.$\frac{4}{5}$
D.$\frac{4}{10}$
Explanation: Percent means parts per hundred, so $40\% = \frac{40}{100}$. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 20 gives $\frac{2}{5}$ in simplest form.
4What is $25\%$ of 80?
A.16
B.20
C.25
D.32
Explanation: Since $25\% = \frac{1}{4}$ or 0.25, calculate $\frac{1}{4} \times 80 = 20$ (or $0.25 \times 80 = 20$).
5A baker uses 2 cups of sugar for every 6 batches of cookies. How many cups of sugar are needed to bake 18 batches of cookies?
A.4 cups
B.6 cups
C.8 cups
D.9 cups
Explanation: Find the scale factor: $18 \div 6 = 3$. Multiply the cups of sugar by 3: $2 \times 3 = 6$ cups of sugar.
6A vehicle travels a distance of 120 miles in 2 hours at a constant speed. What is the vehicle's speed in miles per hour?
A.50 miles per hour
B.60 miles per hour
C.118 miles per hour
D.240 miles per hour
Explanation: Speed is distance divided by time: $120 \text{ miles} \div 2 \text{ hours} = 60 \text{ miles per hour}$.
7Store A sells 4 cans of soup for $6.00. Store B sells 6 cans of the same soup for $8.10. Which store offers the lower unit price per can, and by how much is it cheaper per can?
A.Store A is $0.15 cheaper per can
B.Store B is $0.15 cheaper per can
C.Store B is $0.10 cheaper per can
D.Both stores have the same unit price
Explanation: Unit price at Store A = $6.00 ÷ 4 = $1.50 per can. Unit price at Store B = $8.10 ÷ 6 = $1.35 per can. Store B is cheaper by $1.50 - $1.35 = $0.15 per can.
8In a 6th grade class, 12 students participate in the school band, representing $30\%$ of the total class. How many total students are in the class?
A.36 students
B.40 students
C.42 students
D.50 students
Explanation: Let $W$ be the total number of students. The equation is $0.30 \times W = 12$. Solving for $W$ gives $W = 12 \div 0.30 = 40$ students.
9The ratio of boys to girls in a robotics club is 3 : 5. If there are 24 boys in the club, how many girls are in the club?
A.15 girls
B.35 girls
C.40 girls
D.64 girls
Explanation: Since the ratio of boys to girls is 3 : 5, each ratio unit corresponds to $24 \div 3 = 8$ students. The number of girls is $5 \times 8 = 40$ girls.
10Given that 1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters, how many centimeters are in 15 inches?
A.5.91 centimeters
B.35.40 centimeters
C.38.10 centimeters
D.42.50 centimeters
Explanation: Multiply the number of inches by the conversion factor: $15 \times 2.54 = 38.10$ centimeters.

Puerto Rico CRECE Mathematics Grade 6 Study Tips from Top Performers

1Master unit rate calculations and percent equations ($A = p \cdot B$) to solve real-world PRCS ratio word problems efficiently.
2Remember the algorithm for dividing fractions: multiply by the reciprocal of the divisor (e.g., $\frac{a}{b} \div \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{d}{c}$).
3Use absolute value to calculate distances between points in the coordinate plane that share an x-coordinate or y-coordinate.
4Always verify solutions to one-variable linear equations ($x+p=q$ or $px=q$) by substituting the result back into the original equation.
5Break complex composite geometric figures into basic triangles and rectangles when finding total area.
