1. 5,344 – 57
Simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?
a. 5,555
b. 5387
c. 5,287

sure you are able to subtract large numbers without using a calculator. (subtraction by
regrouping)
2. 3 (x − 4) = 18
Solve the equation above. Which of the following is correct?
a. x = 4
b. x = 6
c. x = 12
d. x = 10
Answer: The correct answer is (d).
Explanation: First divide both sides by 3:
3 (x − 4) = 18 x − 4 = 18/3 x − 4 = 6
Then solve for x:
x − 4 = 6 x = 6 + 4 x = 10
3. (5x − 1) (3x + 2)
Simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?

4. Timmy can usually make six paper airplanes in an hour. However, if he gets interrupted by
his parents, he can only make four per hour. His friend John can make seven paper airplanes
per hour. One day, Timmy and John decide to have a three-hour long contest to see who can
make the most paper airplanes. During the contest, Timmy is interrupted once every hour.
John also had to take a break and do chores for an hour. How many more paper airplanes does
the winner make?
a. 1
b. 2
c. 3
d. 4
Answer: The correct answer is (b).
Explanation: Because Timmy is interrupted during each hour, he can only make four paper
airplanes per hour, multiplied by 3 hours, for a total of 12 airplanes. John makes seven paper
airplanes during the two hours he works without chores, for a total of 14 airplanes. 14
airplanes minus 12 airplanes equals 2.
5. If a car travels 360 kilometers in 5 hours, how far will it travel in 9 hours?
a. 540 kilometers
b. 600 kilometers
c. 650 kilometers
d. 648 kilometers
Answer: The correct answer is (d).
Explanation: Given that it took 5 hours to travel 360km, we can set up a ratio equation to
figure out how far the car will travel in 9 hours.
360/5 = x/9
72 = x/9 72*9 = x
x = 648
6. What degrees Fahrenheit is it at 30 degrees Celsius?
Note: °F = (°C * 9/5) + 32
a. 86°F
b. 90°F
c. 92°F
d. 95°F
Answer: The correct answer is (a).
Explanation: Plug in °C = 30 into the given formula and solve for °F:
°F = (°C * 9/5) + 32
°F = (30 * 9/5) + 32
°F = 54 + 32
°F = 86
7. 0.27 x 0.56
Simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?
a. 0.152
b. 0.15
c. 0.1512
d. 1.512
Answer: The correct answer is (c).
Explanation: The product of two decimals will always have the same number of decimal
places as the sum of the number of decimal places that the multiplicand and the multiplier
have.
27*56 =1512. The multiplicand is .27 and has 2 decimal places. The multiplier is .56 and has
2 decimal places. Our product should have 4 decimal places.
Therefore, our answer is 1512.
8. At a comic book store, Robert purchased three comics for $2.65 each. If he paid with a $20
bill, how much change did he receive?
a. $12.00

11. Amanda wants to paint the walls of a room. She knows that each can of paint contains one
gallon. A half-gallon will cover a 55 square feet of wall. Each of the four walls is 10 feet
high. Two of the walls are 10 feet wide and two of the walls are 15 feet wide. How many 1gallon buckets of paint does Amanda need to buy in order to fully paint the room?
a. 4
b. 5
c. 6
d. 7
Answer: The correct answer is (b).
Explanation: First, we must calculate the area of the walls Amanda wants to paint. Two of
the walls are 10 x 10 and two of the walls are 10 x 15:
2 (10 x 10) = 200
2 (10 x 15) = 300
So the total square footage of the walls is 500.
If a half gallon of paint will cover 55 square feet, then each gallon will cover 110 square feet.
Four gallons would only cover 440 square feet. Five gallons will cover 550 square feet,
which will be enough for all 500 square feet of walls.
12. How many millimeters are there in 5 meters?
a. 500
b. 5,000
c. 50,000
d. 500,000
Answer: The correct answer is (b).
Explanation: The prefix “milli-” means 1,000. There are 1,000 millimeters in 1 meter, so
there are 5,000 millimeters in 5 meters.
13. 0.67 x 0.09? Simplify the expression above.
a. 0.006
b. 0.063
c. 0.0603
d. 0.603
Answer: The correct answer is (c).
Explanation: The product of two decimals will always have the same number of decimal
places as the sum of the number of decimal places that the multiplicand and the multiplier
have.
67*9 = 603. The multiplicand is .67 and has 2 decimal places. The multiplier is .09 and has 2
decimal places. Our product should have 4 decimal places.
Therefore, our answer is 0.603.
Don't get tripped up by the extra zeros. Zeros before our answer and after the decimal point
increase the number of decimal places. Zeros after our answer and after the decimal point do
not increase the number of decimal places.
14. 2 − 8 ÷ (24 ÷ 2)
a. 0
b. 2
c. 1
d. 3
Answer: The correct answer is (c).

• Then multiply and divide in order from left to right.
• Then add and subtract in order from left to right.
2 − 8 ÷ (24 ÷ 2)
= 2 − 8 ÷ (16 ÷ 2)
=2−8÷8
=2−1=1

17. A certain number is 12 more than half a given number. Translate this phrase into a
mathematical expression equivalent to the given number if “c” represents the certain number.
a. x = (c − 12)/2
b. x = c + 12
c. x = 2 (c + 12)
d. x = 2 (c − 12)
Answer: The correct answer is (d).
Explanation: Let’s say x = “a given number.” The word “more” means in addition to, and
“half” means divided by 2. Therefore, the correct translation is (x/2) + 12 = certain number.
The correct answer will be equal to the “given” number, so let’s solve for it:
(x/2) + 12 = c x/2 = c − 12 x = 2(c − 12)
18. | 2x − 5 | = 19
a. x = 14, −12
b. x = 7, −14
c. x = 12, −7
d. x = 19, −5
Answer: The correct answer is (c).
Explanation: Absolute value equations can be rewritten in two ways to solve:
2x − 5 = 19 and 2x − 5 = −19. Solve both:
2x − 5 = 19
2x = 24
x = 12
2x − 5 = −19
2x = −14
x = −7
The two solutions and −7 and 12.
19. If Maria left a $10.16 tip on a breakfast that cost $86.89, approximately what percentage
was the tip?
a. 11%
b. 12%
c. 13%
d. 10%
Answer: The correct answer is (a).
Explanation: The easiest way to answer this question is to round the numbers. Let’s say the
tip is $10 and the total was $87. $10/$87 = approximately 11%. (A) is the closest answer to
our approximation.
20. A nurse working at a medical clinic earns $17.81 per hour. The nurse works three 8-hour
shifts and one 12-hour shift every week, and is paid weekly. Weekly deductions are: federal
tax $102.80, state tax $24.58, federal insurance $18.13, and family health insurance $52.15.
What is the nurse's take-home pay each week?
a. $450.00
b. $443.50
c. $460.00
d. $435.00
Answer: The correct answer is (b).
Explanation: First you must calculate how many hours the nurse works each week. Three 8hour shifts plus one 12-hour shift equals 36 hours per week.
Beginning Salary = 36 x $17.81 = $641.16
Deductions = $102.80 + $24.58 + $18.13 + $52.15 = $197.66
Take-Home Pay = $641.16 − $197.66 = $443.50
21. How many imperial gallons are there in 1,400 liters?
Note: 1 kiloliter = 220 imperial gallons
a. 308
b. 320
c. 300
d. 310
Answer: The correct answer is (a).
Explanation: There are 1,000 liters in 1 kiloliter:
1,400 liters = 1.4 kiloliters.
1.4 x 220 = 308 imperial gallons
22. Derek purchased concert tickets in the month of June for $73, $66, $96, $17, and $66
dollars. Which of the following is an accurate estimate of the total amount he spent on
concert tickets in June?
a. $300
b. $330
c. $340
d. $320
Answer: The correct answer is (b).
Explanation: The easiest way to make an estimate is to round each number so there is only
one nonzero digit. Then you can easily add up the numbers:
73 ≈ 70
66 ≈ 70
96 ≈ 100
17 ≈ 20
66 ≈ 70
Adding these numbers together yields $330.

27. A father is planning a birthday party for his son. He is expecting a total attendance of 7
adults and 13 children. Food costs will be $11.00 for each adult and $5.00 for each child. He
will also need to spend $2.00 per child for party favors. Which of the following is the total
cost of the birthday party?
a. $160
b. $168
c. $170
d. $180
Answer: The correct answer is (b).
Explanation: The cost for each adult will be $11.00.
7 x 11 = 77
The cost for each child will be $7.00 ($5.00 for food plus $2.00 for the party favors).
13 x 7 = 91
So the total cost will be 77 + 91, which is 168.

7x4 + (3) + 13
Next, move left to right, doing any multiplication or division: 28 + 3 + 13
Finally, move left to right, doing any addition or subtraction:
31 + 13 = 44

Problem that could be on the test:
• A store sells two kinds of candles, scented and unscented. The scented burn 1/12 inches in
20 mins. The unscented burns 1/16 inches in 30 mins. Which type of candle burns in 1 Hour
and what is its burn rate?
60 Minutes = 1 Hour
Scented Candle
- 20 Minutes in an hour goes 3 Times (20 + 20 + 20 = 60)
- 1/12 *3 = 3/12 – You got to simplify so it will be ¼
Unscented Candle
- 30 Minutes in an hour goes 2 times (30 + 30 = 60)
- 1/16 *2 = 2/16 – You got to simplify so it will be 1/8
The answer will be the scented candle burn in 1 hour and its burn rate is ¼
