What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 7? (Use π ≈ 3.14)
Answer: 43.96
Circumference equals 2πr, so 2(3.14)(7) ≈ 43.96.
Factor the expression: x² - 9.
Answer: (x + 3)(x - 3)
This is a difference of squares, factoring to (x + 3)(x - 3).
If 5 pencils cost $1.25, how much do 12 pencils cost at the same rate?
Answer: $3.00
Each pencil costs $0.25, so 12 pencils cost 12 × $0.25 = $3.00.
What is the value of the expression 6! / 5!?
Answer: 6
6! divided by 5! cancels to leave just 6.
A rectangle has a length of 8 and a width of 5. What is its diagonal length (rounded)?
Answer: 9.4
The diagonal equals the square root of (8² + 5²) = √89 ≈ 9.4.
Solve the inequality: 2x + 3 > 11.
Answer: x > 4
Subtract 3 to get 2x > 8, then divide by 2 to get x > 4.
What is the greatest common factor (GCF) of 24 and 36?
Answer: 12
The largest number dividing both 24 and 36 evenly is 12.
