1. QuestionMultiple choice

A bus travels 45 miles each day for 6 days. How many miles does it travel?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 270 miles.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: Multiply 45 miles by 6 days: 45 × 6 = 270 miles.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

Multiply 45 miles by 6 days: 45 × 6 = 270 miles.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

A store has 4 shelves with 28 books on each shelf. It receives 15 more books. How many books are there now?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 127 books.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: The shelves hold 4 × 28 = 112 books, and 112 + 15 = 127.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

The shelves hold 4 × 28 = 112 books, and 112 + 15 = 127.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

Which equation represents the statement “a number n increased by 17 is 42”?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is n + 17 = 42.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: Increased by means add, so n + 17 = 42.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

Increased by means add, so n + 17 = 42.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

A rectangular playground has an area of 72 square meters and a length of 9 meters. What is its width?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 8 meters.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: Width equals area divided by length: 72 ÷ 9 = 8 meters.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

Width equals area divided by length: 72 ÷ 9 = 8 meters.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

A student estimates 398 + 204 as 600. Is the estimate reasonable?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is Yes, because 398 is about 400 and 204 is about 200..

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: Rounding to the nearest hundred gives 400 + 200 = 600, so the estimate is reasonable.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

Rounding to the nearest hundred gives 400 + 200 = 600, so the estimate is reasonable.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

A water tank holds 10 liters. A family uses 3.75 liters. How much water remains?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 6.25 liters.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: Subtract 3.75 from 10.00: 10.00 − 3.75 = 6.25 liters.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

Subtract 3.75 from 10.00: 10.00 − 3.75 = 6.25 liters.

7. QuestionMultiple choice

A pattern has 3 squares in the first figure, 6 in the second, and 9 in the third. How many squares are in the fifth figure?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 15 squares.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: The pattern adds 3 squares each time: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

The pattern adds 3 squares each time: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15.

8. QuestionMultiple choice

A student walks 1/4 mile in the morning and 2/4 mile in the afternoon. How far does the student walk?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 3/4 mile.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: Add the numerators with the common denominator: 1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

Add the numerators with the common denominator: 1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4.

9. QuestionMultiple choice

A teacher has 5 boxes with 24 markers in each box. She gives 18 markers to students. How many markers remain?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 102 markers.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: There are 5 × 24 = 120 markers, and 120 − 18 = 102 remain.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

There are 5 × 24 = 120 markers, and 120 − 18 = 102 remain.

10. QuestionMultiple choice

Which strategy best checks whether 7,200 ÷ 8 = 900 is reasonable?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is Multiply 900 by 8 and see whether the product is 7,200..

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about place value, an operation, fractions, measurement, geometry, or data.
  2. Use the quantities: Multiplication is the inverse of division, and 900 × 8 = 7,200 confirms the quotient.
  3. Check the result: Review the operation, units, place value, and whether the answer is reasonable.

Multiplication is the inverse of division, and 900 × 8 = 7,200 confirms the quotient.
