1A baker in San Juan uses $\frac{3}{4}$ cup of sugar for every $\frac{1}{2}$ batch of guava pastries. How many cups of sugar are needed for 1 full batch of pastries?
A.2 cups
B.$\frac{3}{8}$ cup
C.$1\frac{1}{4}$ cups
D.$1\frac{1}{2}$ cups
Explanation: To find the unit rate in cups per batch, divide the total sugar by the fraction of a batch: $\frac{3}{4} \div \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{6}{4} = 1\frac{1}{2}$ cups per batch.
2Elena walks $\frac{2}{5}$ of a mile along the Boardwalk in Ponce in $\frac{1}{10}$ of an hour. What is Elena's walking speed in miles per hour?
A.$2.5$ miles per hour
B.$8$ miles per hour
C.$0.04$ miles per hour
D.$4$ miles per hour
Explanation: Speed is distance divided by time: $\frac{2}{5} \div \frac{1}{10} = \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{10}{1} = \frac{20}{5} = 4$ miles per hour.
3A grocery store sells a 12-pack of juice boxes for $$4.80$ and an 8-pack of the same juice boxes for $$3.60$. Which pack has a lower price per unit and by how much?
A.The 12-pack is cheaper by $$0.05$ per box
B.The 8-pack is cheaper by $$0.05$ per box
C.The 12-pack is cheaper by $$0.10$ per box
D.Both packs have the exact same price per unit
Explanation: Compute the unit price for each: 12-pack $= $4.80 / 12 = $0.40$ per box; 8-pack $= $3.60 / 8 = $0.45$ per box. The 12-pack is cheaper by $$0.45 - $0.40 = $0.05$ per box.
4A table shows a proportional relationship between hours worked ($x$) and total earnings ($y$ in dollars): $(2, 28)$, $(5, 70)$, and $(8, 112)$. What is the constant of proportionality ($k = \frac{y}{x}$)?
A.$k = 14$
B.$k = 7$
C.$k = 28$
D.$k = 12$
Explanation: The constant of proportionality is $k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{28}{2} = \frac{70}{5} = \frac{112}{8} = 14$ dollars per hour.
5A car travels at a constant speed. The graph of the relationship between time in hours ($x$) and distance in miles ($y$) passes through the point $(4, 180)$. Which equation represents this relationship?
A.$y = 0.022x$
B.$y = 180x$
C.$y = 4x + 180$
D.$y = 45x$
Explanation: For a proportional relationship $y = kx$, find $k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{180}{4} = 45$. Therefore, the equation is $y = 45x$.
6A family spends $$40.00$ on lunch at a restaurant in Mayagüez and leaves a $15\%$ tip for the server. What is the amount of the tip?
A.$$6.00$
B.$$4.00$
C.$$15.00$
D.$$46.00$
Explanation: Calculate $15\%$ of $$40.00$: $0.15 \times 40 = 6.00$. The tip is $$6.00$.
7Carlos buys a textbook for $$50.00$. If the local sales tax rate is $7\%$, what is the total cost of the textbook including tax?
A.$$53.50$
B.$$3.50$
C.$$57.00$
D.$$46.50$
Explanation: Calculate tax: $0.07 \times 50 = $3.50$. Add tax to original price: $$50.00 + $3.50 = $53.50$.
8On a map of El Yunque National Forest, the scale is $1\text{ cm} = 5\text{ m}$. If a hiking trail measures $4.5\text{ cm}$ on the map, what is the actual length of the trail in meters?
A.$20.0\text{ m}$
B.$9.0\text{ m}$
C.$22.5\text{ m}$
D.$0.9\text{ m}$
Explanation: Multiply the map distance by the scale factor: $4.5 \times 5 = 22.5$ meters.
9A painter paints $\frac{5}{8}$ of a wall in $\frac{1}{3}$ of an hour. At this rate, how many walls can the painter paint in 1 hour?
A.$\frac{8}{15}$ wall
B.$\frac{5}{24}$ wall
C.$1\frac{7}{8}$ walls
D.$2\frac{1}{3}$ walls
Explanation: Divide wall fraction by time: $\frac{5}{8} \div \frac{1}{3} = \frac{5}{8} \times \frac{3}{1} = \frac{15}{8} = 1\frac{7}{8}$ walls per hour.
10A line representing a proportional relationship passes through $(0, 0)$ and $(1, 65)$ on a coordinate plane, where $x$ represents hours driven and $y$ represents distance in kilometers. What does the point $(1, 65)$ represent?
A.The total trip duration is 65 hours
B.The car travels 1 kilometer in 65 hours
C.The car travels 65 kilometers in 1 hour
D.The initial distance before driving is 65 kilometers
Explanation: In a proportional graph $y = kx$, the point $(1, k)$ gives the unit rate. Thus, $(1, 65)$ means driving 65 kilometers in 1 hour.
