  1. What comes next: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ?

    Answer: 36

    These are square numbers, so the next is 6² = 36.

  2. If 40% of a number is 32, what is the number?

    Answer: 80

    32 / 0.40 = 80.

  3. A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide, with a perimeter of 36. What is its width?

    Answer: 6

    Perimeter is 2(2w + w) = 6w = 36, so w = 6.

  4. What is the next term: 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, ?

    Answer: 38

    Differences are consecutive odd numbers (3,5,7,9,11), so 27 + 11 = 38.

  5. Two dice are rolled. What is the probability the sum equals 7?

    Answer: 1/6

    Six of the 36 outcomes sum to 7, giving 6/36 = 1/6.

  6. If it takes 8 painters 6 days to paint a house, how many days for 12 painters?

    Answer: 4 days

    Total work is 48 painter-days, so 48 / 12 = 4 days.

  7. What is 2³ + 3² - 4?

    Answer: 13

    8 + 9 - 4 = 13.
