CJBAT Arithmetic Reasoning 5

Question 1

A patrol officer completes a report every 45 minutes. In an 8-hour shift, how many complete reports can the officer finish?

Accepted Answer

10

Answer

8 hours = 480 minutes; 480 ÷ 45 = 10.67, so 10 complete reports.

Question 2

A crime scene covers a rectangular area measuring 24 feet by 15 feet. What is the perimeter of the secured area?

Accepted Answer

78 feet

Answer

Perimeter = 2 × (24 + 15) = 2 × 39 = 78 feet.

Question 3

An officer issued 7 tickets on Monday, 4 on Tuesday, 9 on Wednesday, 5 on Thursday, and 10 on Friday. What is the daily average?

Accepted Answer

7

Answer

Total = 7 + 4 + 9 + 5 + 10 = 35; average = 35 ÷ 5 = 7.

Question 4

A police vehicle depreciates 15% per year. If it is worth $32,000 today, what will it be worth after one year?

Accepted Answer

$27,200

Answer

$32,000 × 0.15 = $4,800 loss; $32,000 − $4,800 = $27,200.

Question 5

A suspect's car travels at 75 mph with a 15-minute head start. Police travel at 90 mph. How many minutes after police begin pursuit will they catch the suspect?

Accepted Answer

75 minutes

Answer

Head-start distance = 75 × (15/60) = 18.75 miles; closing speed = 90 − 75 = 15 mph; catch time = 18.75 ÷ 15 = 1.25 hours = 75 minutes.
