  1. What is 3/4 ÷ 3/8?

    Answer: 2

    Multiply by the reciprocal: 3/4 × 8/3 = 24/12 = 2.

  2. What is 15% of 240?

    Answer: 36

    10% of 240 is 24 and 5% is 12, so 15% is 24 + 12 = 36.

  3. Solve for x: 3(x − 4) = 2x + 5

    Answer: 17

    Expanding gives 3x − 12 = 2x + 5, so x = 17.

  4. A rectangle has an area of 48 square metres and a length of 8 metres. What is its perimeter?

    Answer: 28 m

    The width is 48 ÷ 8 = 6, so the perimeter is 2(8 + 6) = 28 m.

  5. What is the mean of the data set 4, 7, 9, 12, 13?

    Answer: 9

    The sum is 45 and there are 5 values, so the mean is 45 ÷ 5 = 9.

  6. Which expresses 0.00045 in scientific notation?

    Answer: 4.5 × 10^-4

    The decimal point moves 4 places right to get 4.5, so the exponent is −4.

  7. A recipe uses 3 cups of flour for every 2 cups of sugar. How many cups of sugar are needed with 9 cups of flour?

    Answer: 6

    9 cups of flour is 3 times the original, so sugar is 2 × 3 = 6 cups.
