  1. A soldier earns $2,400 per month. After a 12% pay raise, what is the new monthly salary?

    Answer: $2,688

    12% of $2,400 = $288; $2,400 + $288 = $2,688.

  2. A convoy of 8 vehicles each carries 275 gallons of water. What is the total water carried by the convoy?

    Answer: 2,200

    8 × 275 = 2,200 gallons.

  3. If 5 soldiers can dig a trench in 6 hours, how many hours would 10 soldiers take to dig the same trench?

    Answer: 3

    Doubling the workers halves the time: 6 ÷ 2 = 3 hours.

  4. A barracks room measures 14 feet by 18 feet. If flooring costs $3.50 per square foot, what is the total flooring cost?

    Answer: $882

    14 × 18 = 252 sq ft; 252 × $3.50 = $882.

  5. A rifle range operates 8 hours daily. If 48 soldiers rotate through evenly across those hours, how many soldiers shoot per hour?

    Answer: 6

    48 ÷ 8 = 6 soldiers per hour.

  6. A unit orders 3 boxes of MREs. Each box contains 12 meals. If 9 soldiers each need 4 meals, do they have enough, and by how much?

    Answer: Exactly enough

    3 × 12 = 36 meals available; 9 × 4 = 36 meals needed — they have exactly enough, with 0 to spare.

  7. A base fence requires posts every 8 feet. If the perimeter of the base is 640 feet, how many posts are needed?

    Answer: 80

    640 ÷ 8 = 80 posts.
