1. QuestionMultiple choice

A pattern is 5, 10, 15, 20. What number comes next?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 25.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: The pattern increases by 5 each time, so the next number is 25.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

The pattern increases by 5 each time, so the next number is 25.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

If n + 4 = 9, what is n?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 5.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: Subtracting 4 from both sides gives n = 5.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

Subtracting 4 from both sides gives n = 5.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

A table shows 2 notebooks cost 4 dollars and 4 notebooks cost 8 dollars. What is the cost of 6 notebooks at the same rate?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 12 dollars.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: Each notebook costs 2 dollars, so 6 notebooks cost 12 dollars.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

Each notebook costs 2 dollars, so 6 notebooks cost 12 dollars.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Which expression means 3 more than a number x?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is x + 3.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: Adding 3 to x represents 3 more than x.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

Adding 3 to x represents 3 more than x.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

A pattern starts at 40 and decreases by 5. What is the third number?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 30.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: The pattern is 40, 35, 30, so the third number is 30.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

The pattern is 40, 35, 30, so the third number is 30.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

If 4 groups have the same number of objects and there are 20 objects total, how many are in each group?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 5.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: Twenty divided into four equal groups gives 5 in each group.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

Twenty divided into four equal groups gives 5 in each group.

7. QuestionMultiple choice

Which relationship is shown by the rule y = x + 2?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is Each y value is 2 greater than x..

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: The rule adds 2 to x to produce y.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

The rule adds 2 to x to produce y.

8. QuestionMultiple choice

A number is even and greater than 10 but less than 16. Which number could it be?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 12.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: 12 is even and lies between 10 and 16.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

12 is even and lies between 10 and 16.

9. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the next number in the pattern 1, 3, 6, 10?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 15.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: The differences are 2, 3, 4, so the next difference is 5 and the answer is 15.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

The differences are 2, 3, 4, so the next difference is 5 and the answer is 15.

10. QuestionMultiple choice

If a = 6, what is a + 7?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 13.

  1. Understand the quantities: Identify the numbers, units, and operation described in the task.
  2. Use the evidence: Substituting 6 for a gives 6 + 7 = 13.
  3. Check the result: Make sure the answer is reasonable for the situation and uses the correct unit when needed.

Substituting 6 for a gives 6 + 7 = 13.
