  1. What is 35% of 260?

    Answer: 91

    35% of 260 = 0.35 × 260 = 91. To find a percentage of a number, convert the percent to a decimal and multiply.

  2. A rectangle has a length of 14 cm and a width of 9 cm. What is its area?

    Answer: 126 cm²

    Area of a rectangle = length × width = 14 × 9 = 126 cm². The perimeter would be 2(14 + 9) = 46 cm, which is a common distractor.

  3. Solve for x: 3x + 7 = 28

    Answer: 7

    Subtract 7 from both sides: 3x = 21. Then divide by 3: x = 7. Always perform inverse operations to isolate the variable.

  4. A store sold 48 items on Monday and 72 items on Tuesday. What fraction of the two-day total was sold on Monday?

    Answer: 2/5

    Total items = 48 + 72 = 120. Monday fraction = 48/120 = 2/5. Simplify by dividing numerator and denominator by their GCF of 24.

  5. The table shows: x = 2 → y = 5; x = 4 → y = 9; x = 6 → y = 13. Which equation represents this relationship?

    Answer: y = 2x + 1

    Check with x = 2: 2(2) + 1 = 5 ✓; x = 4: 2(4) + 1 = 9 ✓; x = 6: 2(6) + 1 = 13 ✓. The slope is (9−5)/(4−2) = 2 and the y-intercept is 1.

  6. A car travels 180 miles in 3 hours. At the same rate, how far will it travel in 5 hours?

    Answer: 300 miles

    Rate = 180 ÷ 3 = 60 mph. Distance in 5 hours = 60 × 5 = 300 miles. Use the formula distance = rate × time.
