  1. An officer's shift runs from 6:30 AM to 2:30 PM with a 30-minute unpaid lunch break. How many paid hours does the officer work?

    Answer: 7.5 hours

    Total shift: 8 hours; minus 0.5 hour lunch = 7.5 paid hours.

  2. A tow company charges $95 for towing plus $35 per day for storage. If a vehicle is towed on Day 1 and retrieved on Day 4, what is the total charge?

    Answer: $200

    Towing: $95; storage for 3 days × $35 = $105; total = $95 + $105 = $200.

  3. A speed detection radar logs 52 vehicles passing in 8 minutes. What is the rate of vehicles per minute?

    Answer: 6.5

    52 vehicles ÷ 8 minutes = 6.5 vehicles per minute.

  4. An officer has a quota target of 60 citations per week (5 days). By Thursday end of day, the officer has written 43 citations. How many are needed on Friday to meet the target?

    Answer: 17

    60 − 43 = 17 citations needed on the final day.

  5. A crosswalk violation fine is $275. If 12 violations are issued in one week, what is the total revenue generated?

    Answer: $3,300

    $275 × 12 = $3,300.

  6. A vehicle legally parked at 11:20 AM in a 1-hour zone. At what time does the parking period expire?

    Answer: 12:20 PM

    One hour after 11:20 AM = 12:20 PM.

  7. A parking authority's budget for enforcement equipment is $48,000 per year. If the cost is split equally among 6 districts, how much does each district receive per quarter?

    Answer: $2,000

    $48,000 ÷ 6 districts = $8,000/year per district; $8,000 ÷ 4 quarters = $2,000 per quarter.
