Sample WVGSA Grade 7 Math Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your WVGSA Grade 7 Math exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A runner covers 3/4 of a mile in 1/10 of an hour. What is the runner's average speed in miles per hour?
A.4.5 miles per hour
B.6.5 miles per hour
C.7.5 miles per hour
D.10 miles per hour
Explanation: To find the average speed in miles per hour, divide the distance covered by the time elapsed: (3/4) ÷ (1/10) = (3/4) × 10 = 30/4 = 7.5 miles per hour.
2A grocery store sells a 16-ounce box of cereal for $4.32. What is the unit rate in dollars per ounce?
A.$0.24 per ounce
B.$0.27 per ounce
C.$0.30 per ounce
D.$3.70 per ounce
Explanation: To find the unit price per ounce, divide the total price by the number of ounces: $4.32 ÷ 16 = $0.27 per ounce.
3A recipe requires 3 cups of flour for every 2 cups of sugar. If Maya uses 12 cups of flour, how many cups of sugar does she need to maintain the same ratio?
A.6 cups
B.8 cups
C.9 cups
D.18 cups
Explanation: Set up the proportion 3/2 = 12/s. Cross-multiplying gives 3s = 24, so s = 8 cups of sugar.
4The table below shows the cost c for n notebooks: (2 notebooks, $5.00), (4 notebooks, $10.00), (6 notebooks, $15.00). What is the constant of proportionality k in dollars per notebook?
A.$0.40
B.$2.00
C.$2.50
D.$5.00
Explanation: The constant of proportionality is k = c / n. Dividing any cost by its corresponding number of notebooks yields $5.00 / 2 = $2.50 per notebook.
5A jacket originally priced at $60.00 is on sale for 25% off. What is the sale price of the jacket before tax?
A.$15.00
B.$40.00
C.$45.00
D.$50.00
Explanation: Calculate the discount amount: 0.25 × $60.00 = $15.00. Subtract the discount from the original price: $60.00 - $15.00 = $45.00.
6A meal at a restaurant costs $32.00. If Noah leaves a 15% tip on the cost of the meal, how much tip does he leave?
A.$3.20
B.$4.80
C.$5.20
D.$36.80
Explanation: Calculate 15% of $32.00 by multiplying 0.15 × 32 = $4.80.
7A line on a coordinate plane passes through (0, 0) and (4, 18), representing the total cost y in dollars for x pounds of apples. Which equation represents this proportional relationship?
A.y = 4.5x
B.y = 4x
C.y = 14x
D.y = x + 14
Explanation: The constant of proportionality is k = y / x = 18 / 4 = 4.5. The proportional equation is y = 4.5x.
8A hose fills 2/5 of a water container in 1/3 of a minute. At this constant rate, how many full containers can the hose fill in 1 minute?
A.2/15 container
B.5/6 container
C.1 1/5 containers
D.1 1/2 containers
Explanation: Divide the amount filled by the time in minutes: (2/5) ÷ (1/3) = (2/5) × 3 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 containers per minute.
9A painter mixes blue and white paint in a constant ratio to make sky blue paint. 3 gallons of blue require 5 gallons of white. Which pair of values (b, w) represents the same proportional relationship of blue paint b to white paint w?
A.(6, 8)
B.(9, 15)
C.(12, 18)
D.(15, 20)
Explanation: The ratio of blue to white paint must equal 3/5. For (9, 15), 9/15 simplifies to 3/5, maintaining the exact proportion.
10Last year, a local library had 400 members. This year, the number of members increased to 470. What is the percent increase in membership?
A.14.9%
B.17.5%
C.70%
D.85%
Explanation: Find the amount of increase: 470 - 400 = 70. Divide by the original value and multiply by 100%: (70 / 400) × 100% = 17.5%.
