  1. A detention facility is at 80% capacity with 480 inmates. What is the facility's total capacity?

    Answer: 600

    If 480 represents 80%, divide by 0.80: 480 ÷ 0.80 = 600 total capacity.

  2. A court officer earns a regular rate of $28 per hour. Overtime is paid at time-and-a-half. What is the officer's overtime hourly rate?

    Answer: $42

    Time-and-a-half means 1.5 times the regular rate: $28 × 1.5 = $42 per hour.

  3. A court file room has 6 cabinets, each with 8 drawers, and each drawer holds 50 folders. How many folders can the room store in total?

    Answer: 2,400

    Multiply all three values: 6 × 8 × 50 = 2,400 folders.

  4. 180 pending cases are distributed equally among 9 court officers. How many cases is each officer responsible for?

    Answer: 20

    Divide the total cases by the number of officers: 180 ÷ 9 = 20 cases per officer.

  5. A court officer works 8 regular hours at $30/hour and 3 overtime hours at $45/hour. What is the officer's total pay for that day?

    Answer: $375

    Regular pay = 8 × $30 = $240; overtime pay = 3 × $45 = $135; total = $240 + $135 = $375.

  6. If 5% of the 260 daily courthouse visitors are denied entry for security reasons, how many visitors are denied?

    Answer: 13

    Multiply 260 by 0.05: 260 × 0.05 = 13 visitors denied entry.
