  1. A department has 120 officers, and 15% are on medical leave. How many officers are currently active?

    Answer: 102

    15% of 120 = 18 on leave; 120 − 18 = 102 active officers.

  2. Crime reports show 48 thefts in Q1 and 36 in Q2. What is the percent decrease?

    Answer: 25%

    Percent decrease = (48 − 36) / 48 × 100 = 25%.

  3. A police unit has a 40% clearance rate on 75 cases. How many cases were solved?

    Answer: 30

    40% of 75 = 0.40 × 75 = 30 cases solved.

  4. In a sample of 200 crime reports, 50 involve repeat offenders. What fraction does this represent?

    Answer: 1/4

    50/200 = 1/4.

  5. The response times in minutes are: 6, 12, 8, 15, 9, 11, 7. What is the range?

    Answer: 9

    Range = maximum − minimum = 15 − 6 = 9.
