  1. A squad of 12 soldiers must complete 480 hours of guard duty over 20 days. How many hours per day must each soldier serve?

    Answer: 2 hours

    Total hours per day: 480 / 20 = 24 hours. Per soldier: 24 / 12 = 2 hours per day.

  2. Equipment costing $8,500 depreciates by 15% each year. What is its value after 2 years?

    Answer: $6,141.25

    After year 1: $8,500 x 0.85 = $7,225. After year 2: $7,225 x 0.85 = $6,141.25.

  3. A convoy of 8 trucks can carry 3.5 tons each. If the total cargo weighs 25 tons, how many trips are needed to move everything?

    Answer: 1 trip

    Total capacity per trip: 8 x 3.5 = 28 tons. Since 28 > 25, only 1 trip is needed.

  4. A soldier earns $2,400 per month and saves 12.5% of his income. How much does he save in 6 months?

    Answer: $1,800

    Monthly savings: $2,400 x 0.125 = $300. Over 6 months: $300 x 6 = $1,800.

  5. If 3 out of every 20 applicants pass the AFCT on their first attempt, how many first-attempt passes would you expect from 340 applicants?

    Answer: 51

    The ratio is 3/20. Multiplying: (3/20) x 340 = 51 expected passes.

  6. A rectangular barracks room is 18 feet long and 12 feet wide. If carpet tiles are 2 feet x 2 feet each, how many tiles are needed to cover the floor?

    Answer: 54

    Room area: 18 x 12 = 216 sq ft. Tile area: 2 x 2 = 4 sq ft. Tiles needed: 216 / 4 = 54.
