  1. A patrol car travels 45 miles in 50 minutes responding to a call. What is its average speed in miles per hour?

    Answer: 54 mph

    45 miles ÷ (50/60 hours) = 45 × 60/50 = 54 mph.

  2. An officer recovers $1,250 in cash from a suspect. If 40% is later returned as evidence to the owner, how much is returned?

    Answer: $500

    40% of $1,250 = 0.40 × 1,250 = $500.

  3. A suspect is described as 6 feet 2 inches tall. How many inches is that?

    Answer: 74 inches

    6 feet × 12 = 72 inches, plus 2 inches = 74 inches.

  4. During a shift, an officer writes 3 tickets per hour for 8 hours. How many tickets total?

    Answer: 24

    3 tickets × 8 hours = 24 tickets.

  5. A speed limit is 35 mph and a driver is clocked at 52 mph. By how much did they exceed the limit?

    Answer: 17 mph

    52 - 35 = 17 mph over the limit.

  6. An evidence locker has 144 items. If they are stored in boxes of 12, how many boxes are needed?

    Answer: 12

    144 ÷ 12 = 12 boxes.

  7. A police academy class starts with 60 recruits and 15% drop out. How many remain?

    Answer: 51

    15% of 60 = 9 dropouts, so 60 - 9 = 51 remain.
