  1. A police officer works 8-hour shifts and patrols 12 km per shift. How many kilometers does the officer patrol in a 5-day work week?

    Answer: 60 km

    Multiplying 12 km per shift by 5 shifts gives 60 km total for the week.

  2. A report states that 45 out of 180 incidents involved traffic offences. What percentage of incidents were traffic-related?

    Answer: 25%

    Dividing 45 by 180 and multiplying by 100 gives 25%.

  3. If a police vehicle travels at 90 km/h, how long will it take to travel 45 km?

    Answer: 30 minutes

    Dividing distance (45 km) by speed (90 km/h) gives 0.5 hours, which equals 30 minutes.

  4. A station has 24 officers divided equally into 3 shifts. How many officers are assigned to each shift?

    Answer: 8

    Dividing 24 officers by 3 shifts gives 8 officers per shift.

  5. Evidence logs show items valued at $320, $75, $540, and $65. What is the total value of the logged evidence?

    Answer: $1,000

    Adding $320 + $75 + $540 + $65 gives a total of $1,000.

  6. A patrol area is 150 square kilometres and must be covered by 6 officers. How many square kilometres is each officer responsible for?

    Answer: 25 km²

    Dividing 150 km² by 6 officers gives 25 km² per officer.
