  1. A chart shows sales of $12,000 in Q1, $15,500 in Q2, $14,200 in Q3, and $16,800 in Q4. What is the average quarterly sales?

    Answer: $14,625

    (12,000 + 15,500 + 14,200 + 16,800) ÷ 4 = 58,500 ÷ 4 = $14,625.

  2. An employee works 8.5 hours a day for 5 days, takes a 30-minute unpaid lunch each day. What are total paid hours for the week?

    Answer: 40

    8.5 − 0.5 = 8 paid hours/day × 5 days = 40 paid hours.

  3. A ratio of red to blue items is 3:5. If there are 120 items total, how many are red?

    Answer: 45

    Red = 3/8 × 120 = 45 items.

  4. Inventory decreased from 850 to 680 units. What is the percent decrease?

    Answer: 20%

    (850 − 680) / 850 × 100 = 170/850 × 100 = 20% decrease.

  5. If a task takes 45 minutes and a worker completes 6 tasks per shift, how many hours of work are the tasks total?

    Answer: 4.5 hours

    6 × 45 minutes = 270 minutes = 4.5 hours.

  6. A box holds 24 items. A pallet holds 16 boxes. How many items are on 5 pallets?

    Answer: 1,920

    24 × 16 = 384 items per pallet; 384 × 5 = 1,920 items.
