Divide distance by time: 180 ÷ 3 = 60 miles per hour.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

A map scale shows 1 inch represents 4 miles. How many miles does 6 inches represent?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 24 miles24\text{ miles}.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Multiply 6 inches by 4 miles per inch to get 24 miles.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Multiply 6 inches by 4 miles per inch to get 24 miles.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Which ratio is equivalent to 3:4?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 12:1612:16.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: Multiplying both parts of 3:4 by 4 gives the equivalent ratio 12:16.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

Multiplying both parts of 3:4 by 4 gives the equivalent ratio 12:16.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

A class has 12 red tiles and 8 blue tiles. What is the ratio of red tiles to all tiles in simplest form?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 3:53:5.

  1. Identify the math idea: Decide whether the question uses ratios, operations, expressions, equations, geometry, statistics, probability, or problem solving.
  2. Show the reasoning: There are 20 total tiles, so 12:20 simplifies by 4 to 3:5.
  3. Check the result: Review the sign, units, operation, and estimate to make sure the answer is reasonable.

There are 20 total tiles, so 12:20 simplifies by 4 to 3:5.

6. QuestionMultiple choice
