  1. A car travels 150 miles in 2.5 hours. What is its average speed in miles per hour?

    Answer: 60 mph

    Speed = distance ÷ time = 150 ÷ 2.5 = 60 mph.

  2. A recipe uses 3 cups of flour for every 2 cups of sugar. If you use 9 cups of flour, how many cups of sugar are needed?

    Answer: 6

    Set up the proportion 3/2 = 9/x and solve: x = 9 × (2/3) = 6.

  3. A pump fills a tank at 8 gallons per minute. How many minutes does it take to fill a 200-gallon tank?

    Answer: 25

    Time = 200 ÷ 8 = 25 minutes.

  4. Convert 5.5 feet to inches.

    Answer: 66 inches

    5.5 feet × 12 inches/foot = 66 inches.

  5. A worker earns $18 per hour and works 35 hours per week. What are their weekly earnings?

    Answer: $630

    $18 × 35 = $630.

  6. If 4 identical items cost $22, what is the cost of 10 of those items?

    Answer: $55.00

    Unit cost = $22 ÷ 4 = $5.50; 10 × $5.50 = $55.00.

  7. A train travels 240 km in 3 hours. At the same speed, how far does it travel in 5 hours?

    Answer: 400 km

    Speed = 240 ÷ 3 = 80 km/h; distance = 80 × 5 = 400 km.
