1The ratio of red marbles to blue marbles in a bag is 3 to 5. If there are 15 red marbles in the bag, how many blue marbles are there?
A.15
B.20
C.25
D.30
Explanation: The ratio of red to blue marbles is 3:5. To find the number of blue marbles when there are 15 red marbles, determine the multiplier: 15 ÷ 3 = 5. Multiply the blue term of the ratio by 5: 5 × 5 = 25 blue marbles.
2A bread recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar for every 6 cups of flour. What is the unit rate of cups of flour per cup of sugar?
A.1/3 cup
B.2 cups
C.3 cups
D.4 cups
Explanation: To find the unit rate of flour per cup of sugar, divide the total cups of flour by the total cups of sugar: 6 ÷ 2 = 3. Therefore, the unit rate is 3 cups of flour per cup of sugar.
3A car travels 180 miles in 3 hours at a constant speed. What is the car's average speed in miles per hour?
A.50 mph
B.55 mph
C.60 mph
D.65 mph
Explanation: To calculate the unit rate in miles per hour, divide the distance traveled by the total time: 180 miles ÷ 3 hours = 60 miles per hour.
4What is 25% of 80?
A.15
B.20
C.25
D.30
Explanation: Convert 25% to a fraction (1/4) or decimal (0.25). Multiply 80 by 0.25 (or 80 ÷ 4) to get 20.
5A package of 4 notebooks costs $10.00. What is the unit price of one notebook?
A.$2.00
B.$2.25
C.$2.50
D.$2.75
Explanation: Divide the total cost by the number of notebooks to find the unit price: $10.00 ÷ 4 = $2.50 per notebook.
6In a 6th-grade class of 30 students, 12 students wear glasses. What percentage of the class wears glasses?
A.30%
B.36%
C.40%
D.45%
Explanation: Divide the number of students wearing glasses by the total number of students: 12 ÷ 30 = 0.40. Convert 0.40 to a percentage by multiplying by 100 to get 40%.
7On a map of Utah, 1 inch represents 15 miles. If two towns are 4.5 inches apart on the map, what is the actual distance between them in miles?
A.52.5 miles
B.60 miles
C.67.5 miles
D.75 miles
Explanation: Multiply the map distance by the scale ratio: 4.5 inches × 15 miles/inch = 67.5 miles.
8A baker uses 8 cups of flour for every 3 cups of sugar. If the baker uses 20 cups of flour, how many cups of sugar are needed?
A.6 cups
B.7 cups
C.7.5 cups
D.8.5 cups
Explanation: Set up a proportion: 8/3 = 20/x. Cross-multiply to solve: 8x = 60, so x = 60 ÷ 8 = 7.5 cups of sugar.
9A track runner completes 12 laps in 20 minutes. At this constant rate, how many minutes will it take the runner to complete 18 laps?
A.26 minutes
B.28 minutes
C.30 minutes
D.32 minutes
Explanation: Find the unit rate: 20 minutes ÷ 12 laps = 5/3 minutes per lap. Multiply by 18 laps: 18 × (5/3) = 30 minutes.
10The number 45 is 60% of what number?
A.65
B.70
C.75
D.80
Explanation: Set up the equation 0.60 × x = 45. Divide both sides by 0.60: x = 45 ÷ 0.60 = 75.
