  1. A shipment of 480 units is split equally among 6 locations. Each location then returns 12 units. How many units remain at each location?

    Answer: 68

    480 ÷ 6 = 80 per location, then 80 − 12 = 68 units remain.

  2. An office supply budget is $1,200. If 65% has been spent, how much is left?

    Answer: $420

    65% of $1,200 = $780 spent, so $1,200 − $780 = $420 remaining.

  3. A number increased by 15% equals 138. What is the original number?

    Answer: 120

    x × 1.15 = 138, so x = 138 ÷ 1.15 = 120.

  4. Three workers complete a task in 12 days. How many days would it take 4 workers at the same rate?

    Answer: 9

    Total work = 3 × 12 = 36 worker-days; 36 ÷ 4 = 9 days.

  5. A product costs $36 after a 25% discount. What was the original price?

    Answer: $48

    $36 = 75% of original, so original = $36 ÷ 0.75 = $48.

  6. If 5 printers print 500 pages in 10 minutes, how many pages do 3 printers print in 10 minutes?

    Answer: 300

    Each printer prints 100 pages in 10 minutes; 3 × 100 = 300 pages.
